Chapter 16
Diana Swift asked the driver to drive straight to the headquarters building of Lux Hotel Group. The scenery outside the window was flying, but she was not interested in enjoying it. No matter if she closed her eyes or not, there were always a lot of pictures from her marriage with Cen Sen replaying in her mind.
She originally wanted to notify Cen Sen first.
But when Diana opened Whatsapp, she remembered that she had deleted Josh Hunter, and there was no application from him.
Nothing would happen and she didn't know why she checked her phone.
She seriously wondered if there were some things that were destined sometimes, for example, she and Cen Sen were not destined to be in harmony.
She remembered when Cen Sen first arrived at Luxury Bridge when she was a child, she thought this brother was really good-looking, so she took the initiative to show him a few times of kindness, and shared her favorite snacks with him, but he was always reticent, ignoring her love.
After she was given the cold shoulder, she lost her patience, and even at a young age, she was a little bit out of love and hatred, so she gathered her friends to isolate him.
However, Cen Sen was a year or two older than her and her group of peers, and he didn't care about the isolation of their group of naive kids.
After that, all the way to elementary school, middle school, and high school, Cen Sen was always two grades higher than her. No matter where he was, he was a perfect model student who was always giving speeches for all. And teachers all spoke highly of him.
She felt very annoyed and felt more and more disgusted and impatient with his template-like existence. Sometimes when she met him at school, she would pass him with a snort without looking at him, or blew and then popped a bubble gum.
Cen Sen was even more indifferent, not even looking at her, just ignoring her existence.
It's just that the adult world had an extra layer of disguise, and he would wrap a gentle coat to raise her, a canary who didn't deserve his love but he was willing to sleep with.
--On weekdays, she joked with Bonnie Smith that she would occasionally laugh at herself as a canary. Thinking about it carefully, it was unexpectedly appropriate.

On weekend mornings, the P city Financial Center was still crowded with people.
Just after the half-month inspection of the hotel, he landed in P city, and there was another meeting early in the morning. Before Cen Sen had time to eat breakfast, he ordered his assistant to make a cup of black coffee while walking to the office.
"What's the situation, which media reported it."
Back in the office, Cen Sen put on his glasses, then looked at the new hotel evaluation materials in hand, and asked about the previous incident by the way.
When he was just returning home, Sam Rodriguez gave him a brief overview in the car, saying that there was some gossip news related to him, but he needed to concentrate on the upcoming meeting, and he was not in the mood to listen.
Sam Rodriguez talked about the whole thing in detail, paused for a while, and then said, "During the meeting, Miss Kate Hall and Mr. Hall both called to apologize. Both said it was a misunderstanding, and the news would be taken down immediately."
"Misunderstanding." Cen Sen didn't look away, signed the document in the lower right corner, and instructed quietly, "Call Lyle Hall, Lux Hotel Group , the hotel project in Xijiao Scenic Spot, has been decided to stop acquiring patronage from us. Private matters will affect the partners. I am very concerned. It's hard to believe they have a decent attitude at work."
Sam Rodriguez lowered his eyes, "Yes."
Cen Sen changed the subject and suddenly asked, "Where's my wife?"
But he didn't know what to think, and before he could answer, he answered again, "Forget it, tonight's arrangement is canceled or postponed, you go now to get the bracelet that Mr. Black gave last time."
Sam Rodriguez replied "yes" again, and seeing that Cen Sen didn't speak again, he quietly exited the office.
The office was silent, Cen Sen rubbed his browbones, then leaned back in the chair and closed his eyes for half a minute. He had a premonition that there would be a tough battle tonight.
-
"Ma'am, may I ask you..."
"Step aside."
Diana Swift didn't even look at the security of the building, she stepped on high heels, and she was imposing.
The bodyguard who was almost invisible in front of Diana Swift on weekdays finally came forward and explained her identity to the security personnel.
Diana Swift didn't look back, she just let others make the way, she put on her sunglasses and put her arms around her, and walked into Cen Sen's special elevator with a blank expression.
"Who is that girl, she's so beautiful, she looks like a star."
"She entered the elevator for the CEO's office. It should be Mr. Cen's girlfriend."
"Isn't Mr. Cen married?"
"Could that be his wife?"
The front desk was discussing in a low voice, and the security side helped them confirm the answer.
Yes, that's right, it's Mr. Cen's wife.
So in the few minutes that Diana Swift was in the elevator, the news of Mrs. Hunter visiting the president's office quickly went viral among chatting groups as if the 5G network had been connected in advance.
"Why is she so aggressive? She's here to catch an adulterer?"
"Catch an adulterer? Is there an adulterer between them?"
"No, every time he goes out, girls are meters away from him. It's better to say that he and Mr. Rodriguez have an affair."
"Woman, you have attracted my attention, You get a novel material! Please write a novel! thank you."
Although some people saw Diana Swift's aggressiveness, but since the little news was strangled in the cradle on her way, no one gossiped about the female star.
The employees of the group knew that she was here, and Cen Sen would not be blind or deaf to the point of ignorance, not to mention that she was accompanied by bodyguards, and it was his acquiescence to open the way for her.
When Diana Swift arrived on the 68th floor, the door of the office had been opened for her, and Cen Sen's imposing line of assistants also stood up and lined up to greet her.
Diana Swift was expressionless, gave herself a boost from the bottom of her heart, and walked directly into Cen Sen's office without stopping.
Mr. Hunter was sitting in the office and wearing a pair of light gold thin-rimmed glasses, which gave him the temperament of a gentle scum.
Diana Swift stopped in front of his desk, was prepared in her mind, and then smashed the printed but unbound divorce agreement on his head-
"Divorce."
Her voice had been silently adjusted several times on the way here, in order to achieve a sense of indifference in disdain and aloofness in charity.
After she finished speaking, she wrapped her hands in front of her again and looked down at him with contemptuous eyes.
"..."
Cen Sen closed his eyes and pressed the paper, and after being silent for three seconds, he pressed it to the table again, without raising his eyes, there was a brief silence.
In fact, the moment he knew that Diana Swift came to Lux Hotel Group , he was ready to deal with it, and even figured out how to simplify the explanation process and shorten the nonsense time. But he had to admit that he never thought that Diana Swift would file for divorce.
During the period after returning to China, Diana Swift seems to be causing some accidents to him, and this "divorce" was the best among the accidents.
He took off his glasses, pinched the bridge of his nose, and turned on the projection device behind Diana Swift.
"Go back."
Diana Swift looked back subconsciously.
A video of the driving recorder quickly appeared on the screen. Although the device did not record a human face, Diana Swift quickly matched it with the photos she saw in the magazine.
The sound of the driving recorder was a bit noisy, and the recording was not clear, but the office was silent, and she listened carefully, as if she heard key words such as "not as good as my wife" and "wash your face to sober youself".
Diana Swift seemed to understand something.
At this moment, Sam Rodriguez just knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Sam Rodriguez walked into the office and saw Diana Swift, as if he was not surprised, he just nodded politely, and then reported to Josh Hunter seriously, "Mr. Hunter, I have already conveyed your message to Mr. Hall, but Mr. Hall still wants to personally call you."
"Call in."
Sam Rodriguez responded and put the red velvet jewelry box in his hand on the table, "This is Mrs. Hunter's bracelet."
After speaking, he quietly left the stage.
Soon Lyle Hall's phone was connected to the office, and Mr. Hunter turned on loudspeaker. Then Diana Swift listened to Lyle Hall, a free lecturer, explaining the ins and outs of the whole thing. In a word, in Lyle Hall's mouth, Mr. Hunter sat innocently and was not seduced by beauty.
And Mr. Hunter made some responses from time to time, playing with the bracelet in his hand. When Diana Swift understood, he hung up the phone.
"..."
Diana Swift stared straight at the bracelet in his hand. She recognized it. It was a limited edition from an auction that she was concerned about before. The transaction price was not exaggerated, but the design was special and the style was simple and elegant. She still liked it a little.
No, that doesn't seem to be the focus of attention right now.
She came back to her senses.
Oh, so, she suffered all the way from the magazine, and now she had made up a bunch of things and almost cried, and her public image collapsed - it was all just a misunderstanding.
It was wonderful.
Her feelings of sadness disappeared at an instant, and all that was left was a slight embarrassment at the absurd inner drama she had played along the way.
"Do you still want to divorce?"
Silent was the little canary at this time.
Cen Sen loosened his bow tie and looked at her calmly, "If I'm not doing well enough, you really can't stand it and insist on divorce, then I respect your opinion."
"But Mingshu, you may need me to help you recall your prenuptial agreement. After the divorce, you may not be able to continue collecting rare leather bags, take a private jet to B city to watch a show, and bid for luxurious diamond rings..."
"Wait," Diana Swift was sober, "I think... I can bear it a little longer."
The slight embarrassment deepened a little.
Diana Swift also didn't expect him to be so compulsive without the internet. He actually knew that she liked to collect bags and bid for all kinds of gems and diamonds, and at this moment, she even took out a small and beautiful bracelet to bribe her.
Then of course she was very moved and chose to accept it with joy.
Hearing Diana Swift's answer, Cen Sen didn't know why, and his heart was suddenly relieved.
He got up calmly and walked in front of Diana Swift, then raised her wrist and put on the diamond bracelet for her.
The light smell of fir came, and Diana Swift's ears were a little red, and she didn't know why. In addition to the embarrassment, there was a small, uncontrollable joy in her heart.
She hypnotized herself and said: It must be because I am so happy to continue spending money in the future. Yes, that's right, that's it.
She held back the corners of her lips that she wanted to raise, cleared her throat, and emphasized, "If you really cheat, I really want to get a divorce. Forget it this time, forgive you."
Cen Sen chuckled, "Thank you very much."
