Billionaire's Unforgettable Ex-Wife-Chapter 167 - 136: Taking the Initiative, She Is Willing to Strike First

Chapter 167: Chapter 136: Taking the Initiative, She Is Willing to Strike First

"I thought you would say he’s really shameless."

"It’s a fact, no need to curse, it’s a fact anyway.

But in the future, Miya and Darnley won’t just dislike me and only like him, right?

After all, there’s a blood relationship..."

"It’s not that easy." Although Faye Townsend said this with her mouth.

But thinking of the scenes when Miya and Darnley are with Hunter Warren, she couldn’t help but furrow her brows.

Some things really can’t be predicted.

Faye laughed, "That’s one point I don’t oppose."

"You’re back, so I can relax a bit these days.

There’s something I think I need to tell you. I hope you won’t be angry after hearing it."

Faye smiled at him, "It seems it’s not good news."

"I guess... it’s not really good news.

I arranged for Luna Fisher to work at the Townsend company.

A few days ago, she said she didn’t want to be a parasite, so she asked me to find a position for her in my company.

You know her relationship with Clara.

I couldn’t upset Clara because of her.

But since she asked me, I really found it hard to refuse.

So I arranged for her to join the Townsend company."

Faye laughed speechlessly, "It’s really not good news.

You’ve given me quite the hot potato.

If Clara finds out, she’ll probably be angry."

"She’ll only be angry with me, not with you.

But making her angry is better than her seeing Luna Fisher at BlueHorizon Group every day, right?"

"What more can I say, you’ve already acted first and reported later, what’s left to be said.

Let’s leave it at that; I believe Clara will eventually understand your good intentions."

"She won’t understand; she found out I appointed Luna Fisher here.

She called me that day asking me to send her to Malaysia.

She’s been gone for over a week now without making a single call.

This girl is really stubborn.

Forget it, I’m too lazy to bother with her; let her act out as she wants."

As Oliver Turner was speaking, a commotion erupted at the door.

Faye didn’t even need to open the door to know who it was making the noise.

"This is my family’s company. What right do you two lapdogs of Faye Townsend have to stop me?

Let me tell you, Declan Rivers, you’re so damn useless.

Your dad spent his whole life as a dog in my family’s house, and now you’re acting as a lapdog for Faye."

Faye gave Oliver Turner a look, "Wait a moment."

She stood up and went to the door, opening it directly, "Richard Townsend, other people use their mouths to speak.

Do you use yours to fart? Don’t you know your breath stinks? Go outside if you’re going to fart, don’t disgust everyone here."

"Damn it, you dare repeat what you just said?" Richard Townsend stepped forward trying to grab Faye’s collar.

Declan Rivers quickly stepped in front of Faye, "Deputy Director Townsend, Director Townsend is your own sister."

"Who doesn’t know that? Get out of my way." Richard Townsend pulled Declan Rivers aside.

Faye stepped forward to assist Declan Rivers, "Declan, are you okay?"

"Director Townsend, I’m fine."

Faye let go of Declan Rivers and walked up to Richard Townsend, "What do you want? Planning to hit me?

Come on, Richard, try laying a finger on me.

I’m just looking for an excuse to kick you out of the company anyway.

Go ahead and start something; I promise I won’t lift a finger in retaliation."

"Faye." Richard Townsend grabbed her collar, "You damn well better not push me around.

You told me to show up for a meeting within half an hour.

But the secretary told me there was no meeting notice at all.

What, do you think it’s fun to toy with me?"

Faye brushed his hand off and raised her own wrist, "Look at the time yourself, you’re still not coming to work.

You think just because this company is family-owned, you can do whatever you want?

Richard, people need face, just as trees need bark.

I realize you neither want face nor bark.

’A shameless person is invincible’—was this phrase custom-made for you?

You like to be aggressive, like to humiliate others, that’s fine.

But don’t come to my company to make trouble, don’t be disgusting to my secretary.

Let me tell you, they are both people who are actively working for the development of the Townsend company.

And you? You’re just a pile of dog shit. People would avoid you even if you were just lying there."

Oliver Turner emerged from her office.

Richard took one look at her and sneered, "Damn, you’re calling me shameless.

When I’m out playing with women, you’re here in the office having a tryst with a man, isn’t that disgusting?"

Faye lifted her hand and slapped Richard hard.

Richard was stunned, holding his face in shock as he looked at her.

Faye gritted her teeth, "Richard, are you still human, are you, to talk about your own sister like that?"

"And you, still think you’re human, hitting your own brother like this?"

"You know why I hit you, don’t you?

You think just because I won’t abandon you, you can bully me all you want.

Richard, do I owe you something from a past life?

Why am I doing all this just to help you?

Is it just to earn money so you can support those trashy women?

There’s nothing improper between me and Oliver; unlike you, you’re just despicable.

You’ve never been there when I needed you.

And now I truly don’t want to see you, so can you roll out of my sight and stay away for good?"

After saying this, Faye stepped back, "Declan, send Deputy Director Townsend back to his office."

"Yes, Director Townsend."

Declan Rivers said as he stepped forward to assist Richard Townsend, "Deputy Director Townsend, let’s go."

Richard shook off Declan Rivers’ hand, "Forget it, don’t bother, I can walk myself."

He gave Faye a cold glance before turning to leave.

Faye let out a deep sigh before looking at Declan Rivers, "Declan, don’t take his words to heart just now.

He’s always been like this, never knowing what it means to hurt others.

He just says whatever comes to mind.

If words could kill, he would’ve died a hundred times by now."

"Don’t worry, Director Townsend, I didn’t take it to heart," Caleb Rivers smiled at her.

Faye pursed her lips and nodded. She glanced sideways at Oliver Turner, "Oliver, still want to come in and sit for a while?"

"No, I think I’ll go. Your mood seems a bit off; I don’t want to bother you here.

Go sit inside for a bit."

"Alright, then I won’t see you out."

After Oliver Turner left, Faye returned to her office.

Brielle Golden, a bit surprised, asked Declan Rivers, "What did Deputy Director Townsend mean just now?

I always thought you knew Director Townsend, seems I was right; you really know her."

"Sister Brielle, it’s not something that couldn’t be mentioned.

I just didn’t want people gossiping that I got in through connections, so I kept quiet.

Actually... my dad was the housekeeper for the Townsend family, working for them for a lifetime.

All my tuition fees were sponsored by the Townsend Family.

The Townsend Family has been good to me.

I often see you quite afraid of Director Townsend, I’ve always wanted to tell you there’s no need, she’s really nice.

But then I fear you’ll ask how I know, and I wouldn’t know how to answer.

Honestly, I spent a lot of time at the Townsend mansion growing up, often playing with Director Townsend, she’s truly decent, so you really don’t need to be afraid of her."

Brielle Golden looked at Declan Rivers and nodded, "But what Deputy Director Townsend said just now... are you really okay?"

Declan Rivers shrugged with a smile, "There’s nothing much to be angry about, is there?

After all, to outsiders, our family has always been considered dogs for the Townsend Family, right?"

Brielle Golden shook her head, "Don’t think like that, didn’t you just say Director Townsend is a good person?

See, she’s been good to you too.

Not everyone can joke with Director Townsend easily, but you can, right?"

Declan Rivers laughed, "Sister Brielle, it’s fine; I didn’t take Deputy Director Townsend’s words to heart.

I feel that others might think that way.

But it doesn’t really matter what others think.

As long as I know what kind of person Director Townsend is, that’s enough."

Faye returned to the office, tried to calm her emotions, and started working.

Not long after, her phone rang.

Faye picked it up, glanced at it, hesitated for a moment before she answered.

"Hello."

"I actually got through. Honestly, I didn’t expect you to pick up."

On the other end was Hunter Warren’s voice, "I thought you wouldn’t bother with me."

"That was my original thought, but if I didn’t pick up, you’d probably keep calling again and again, right?

So, tell me, what’s the reason for your call?"

"Actually, I want to ask you out for lunch.

But I guess... you’ll probably refuse."

Faye smiled wryly, "You already knew, yet you still wasted your breath."

"So I changed my approach; I want to ask about last night.

How was last night, is Miya adapting well?"

"Pretty good." Faye nodded, "Maybe because her brother and I were there, she slept well."

"That’s good. Today, Professor Barrett has already gone to the villa there.

Theodore Avery left after completing the handover, taking the car I arranged."

"Hmm, okay, thank you."

"Don’t say ’thanks’ anymore, makes us seem like strangers, we are a couple after all."

A couple... Faye let out a deep sigh.

"There you go, sighing again.

Faye, why have you become so complicated as you’ve grown?

Can you just relax and think of this as a chat?

I didn’t mean anything else by that comment.

It pains me to see you so worried."

"Knowing I’m already complex, why do you say such strange things to me?"

"How is saying we’re a couple strange?"

"Are we really?"

"Aren’t we? Want me to show you the marriage certificate?"

Faye laughed speechlessly, fine, he won.

"I’ve always been curious, back then... even though I signed the divorce papers, why didn’t you have a lawyer process the divorce?"

Hunter felt a bit more at ease, "I thought you would never ask about this."

"I didn’t mean anything by it, I’m just really curious."

"I never forgot the vow I made in front of Grandma.

As long as we’re both alive, we won’t divorce and separate.
