Chapter 981 Feeling Sorry for Paula
Burton lifted his head, tossed off his wine, and said indifferently, "That's none of your business."
Zoey curled her lips and put the glass down on the table. "Since you don't like it, this is it."
With that, she left. Burton's face clouded over. A few days ago, Zoey found him to talk about business. Aware that she was not a good person. Burton ignored her till she mentioned Paula. It made him freeze.
Zoey smiled and asked him if he wanted to know why Paula chose to divorce him. He naturally wanted to know. Zoey told him that Paula was in love with another man who was working with the Lion Group. It was Timothy's assistant, Hugh Perez. Burton naturally didn't believe the deceptive woman.novelbin
Zoey then played a video, in which Paula and Hugh intimately held each other. They went to the hotel together. Burton was broken on the spot. He kept the last bit of his sanity and looked into it. The video was not fake. It was really Paula. He found it hard to accept. Since then, he had indulged in sensual pleasures and never paid attention to Paula again.
Zoey showed up again and asked him if he wanted to take revenge. Paula hooked up with Hugh. Timothy, who was in the office every day, should know about it. Burton had been kept in the dark. Zoey proposed to join hands with him. As long as he revealed the secrets of the company, she would be able to take over.
After a long silence, Burton agreed. He had worked with the Lion Group for a long time and knew some core secrets. He gave a list of their partners to Zoey. They were going to steal the partners away.
Although Burton was running a small company, he couldn't do anything to Hugh who was working as the assistant of the CEO. Besides, that man had a deep background. He was not a small potato. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gotten a chance to work with the Lion Group.
Their plan was to corrupt the company and acquire it. The Ximenez family and he would rise above the crowd and rule the city. He would have the power to work against Hugh. It was his agreement with Zoey. However, the pain was so intense that he drowned his sorrow every day.
He couldn't figure out why Paula did this to him. Then August and Lucia came today. When he learned that Timothy was keeping it from him, he intended to question August. Unfortunately, August was not in Austos City. When he finally met August, he no longer wanted to ask.
It was pointless. It was the fact that Paula cheated on him and that they divorced. He couldn't change it. He could only change the future. Burton took a swig of his wine. His eyes turned fierce. From now on, he would take control of his fate.
Lucia looked dejected after she got out of the bar. She hadn't expected Burton to become like this. She felt sorry for Paula
