After the CEO Divorced Me, He Wants Me Back

Rosalie said, "That must be tough for you. But why did Uncle and Aunt suddenly decide to send you abroad?"

Jolie's eyes flickered. So, her parents hadn't told their relatives the real reason?

Of course, they'd be too embarrassed to admit it. Shipping their daughter abroad just to force her to break up with her boyfriend? What a humiliating thing to confess. Jolie replied calmly, "I wanted to study abroad to gain some experience. It's for my future photography exhibition. I still have a lot to learn."

"Oh, I see," Rosalie responded, feigning understanding. Then she added, "Where are you staying? If I get the chance, I'll come visit you."

"There's no need, but thanks for thinking of me," Jolie said lightly. "I'll only be gone for a year. I'll be back before you know it."

Rosalie smiled on the other end. "Alright then. If you need anything, just let me know."

"Sure."

After a few more polite exchanges, the call ended.

Rosalie stared at her phone, gripping it tightly.

"So, I was overthinking it," she thought

Last night, she really must have been mistaken-that wasn't Jolie!

A laptop sat open in front of her, displaying an email with a single word that made her heart race: Promotion.

She had been transferred to Cooper Enterprises' President's Office to serve as the president's secretary!

Rosalie's eyes sparkled with determination.

Becoming Gavin Cooper's secretary meant she was closer to him than ever.

This was her chance. She would make sure to impress him, to catch his attention. She had no doubt about it-she would make it happen. "Knock, knock."

A sudden knock at the door pulled her from her thoughts.

"Come in," Rosalie said, turning toward the door.

The door opened, and Rosalie's mother walked in, her face beaming with excitement. "Rosalie,

congratulations on becoming Gavin Cooper's secretary! Does this mean you't have more chances to interact with him?"

"Mom, stop overthinking," Rosalie replied quickly. "My first priority is to do my job well."

"Of course," her mother said, nodding earnestly. "But while you're working, you should also pay attention to what Gavin likes and dislikes, understand?"

"As his secretary, that's part of my job," Rosalie said, keeping her tone neutral.

Her mother leaned in, her voice lowering. "Rosalie, your uncle's family is also eyeing Gavin. But now that you've secured the position of his secretary, you're already ahead of Joke. She refused to break up and ended up being sent abroad by your uncle. This is your golden opportunity-you must seize it."

"I understand, Mom," Rosalie said, her voice firm. "Now, I need to prepare some documents. You should go." "Alright."

...

After freshening up, Jolie stepped out of the bathroom to find the room empty. Gavin was gone.

Her gaze swept across the room. When her eyes landed on the entryway, her cheeks flushed. When she looked toward the sofa, they turned even redder. She couldn't even bring herself to glance at the balcony.

Biting her lip, she blushed furiously as she shuffled into the kitchen to make herself something to eat. To her surprise, she discovered food already warming in a pot on the stove.

She stared at it in astonishment, a strange feeling rising in her chest. Pulling out her phone, she sent Gavin a message.

"When did you leave?"

In a conference room large enough to accommodate three hundred people, Gavin sat at the head of the table in a sharp black suit, his expression cold and focused as he listened to a subordinate's report. Suddenly, the phone on the table vibrated softly. His eyes flicked toward it, catching Jolie's name flashing briefly on the screen.

Casually picking up the phone, he glanced at the message.

"Continue," he said to his subordinate, his tone indifferent as he opened her text.
