Let's Get A Divorce, Mr. CEO

Chapter 21: Cecil Had Never Been A Lenient Man

The truth was, Linda didn't have a choice.

When Leona had run away, she had taken her ID card, her passport, and all other important documents with her.She glanced at Cecil and said calmly, "You're right."

All of a sudden, the look in Cecil's eyes sharpened.

"Once Leona comes back, we will get a divorce.That's the fate you deserve, to become a divorced woman," he sneered.

Linda could barely swallow the poison in his words.She couldn't believe that he had brought up this matter just as a way of punishing her.

After all, there was no reason for him to get a marriage certificate with her.

However, she had no choice but to agree to his demands.

While she was still chewing over his words, Cecil left the dining room.

The next day, Cecil ordered his driver to take him and Linda to the Ye family's house. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

He had prepared a large number of gifts, as if he was really accompanying his newly-wed bride to her home.

Despite the elaborate show, Linda was well aware that if Leona didn't show up today, the whole Ye family would suffer greatly from now on.As she sat in the car, she unconsciously clenched the hem of her dress with her fingers.

After a few minutes, she turned her head to look at Cecil, who was resting his eyes.

"Mr.Bo, can't you just wait for her without causing trouble for my family?"

Cecil opened his eyes, revealing the displeasure in them.

He glanced at Linda coldly and sneered, "Are you being serious?"

Linda bit her lower lip and tried to gather her courage as she continued, "Maybe she had an unspeakable reason for doing what she did."

"Maybe she did, and maybe the whole Ye family did too.But I'm the one who was stupid enough to be fooled by all of you," Cecil spat.

Linda remained silent, digging her nails into her thighs.She didn't know how to respond.

Even from observing him from a distance, she knew that Cecil had never been a lenient man.

Moreover, after becoming the CEO of the Bo Group, he had become more domineering than ever.Now that he had been tricked into a fake marriage, it was reasonable for him to be so angry.

Although Linda knew that she wouldn't be able to get Cecil to agree to leave her family alone, she couldn't help but try to convince him whenever she got the chance.

After another twenty minutes, the car rolled to a stop outside a villa.Cecil asked the driver to carry all the gifts he had bought into the villa, and then entered with Linda.

Upon their arrival, Martin rushed to the door and smiled.

"You're back."

He carefully avoided addressing Linda by name, and when he cast his gaze on Cecil, his face paled slightly.He knew better than anyone else that today was a special day.

Mrs.Ye also walked into the living room and greeted both of them before taking Linda aside.She talked to her daughter about trivial matters, but the whole time, there was a worried look on her face.

Soon, the four of them sat around the dining table for lunch.

While eating, Cecil didn't say anything unpleasant, but the whole Ye family was on edge and barely able to swallow their food.

After lunch, they sat in the living room to drink tea and eat some fruits.

Since Cecil didn't bring up Leona's name, their parents pointedly ignored it.

Linda carefully refrained from mentioning it, too, but she could see that her parents were prepared to receive Cecil's order and criticism at any time.

The Ye Group was a huge company.

The crisis they were facing recently had been caused by poor management, and a few greedy directors who had deliberately cut corners to get a bigger cut of the profit.

But the Ye Group had a solid foundation, so the current crisis was nothing that couldn't be solved with a bit of money.

If Cecil was generous enough to absorb the Ye Group into the Bo Group, it would definitely be a good opportunity.

While taking a sip of her tea, Linda subconsciously looked up at him.

After meeting her gaze, Cecil's thin fips finally moved.

"Uncle Ye."
