Love Mission: Ex-wife Strikes Back

Barton felt nothing but shock creeping his entire body that night.

In fact, it took him a long time before he could gather his thoughts. After getting back his composure, he asked Zoe, "Then why didn't you tell this to me before?"

"Tell me one good reason why I should mention it in the first place." Zoe gave Barton a bitter smile. "Even if I told you, would it even change anything? Would you have liked me if I did?"

"Zoe, I..." Barton opened his mouth. However, he was at a loss for words.

To be honest,

he had no clue what he would do if he had known how much she loved him.

He fixed his eyes at Zoe and said, "You should at least have told me sooner."

"And so what?" Zoe said with a smirk. "Nothing would change, right?

It's getting late, Mr. Xiao. I think you should leave."

"But Zoe, I'm here to—" The reason why he came there was to talk about the matter regarding Julia.

But at that moment, Zoe didn't want to hear anything from Barton. Instead, she smiled

bed the flowers on the table and threw them into the nearest trash can. A moment later, Barton came in the room.

Upon seeing Zoe, he wanted to say something, but no words seemed to come out of his mouth.

He entered his office. After a while, Nicole came in with a cup of coffee. He frowned upon seeing her. Irritated, he asked, "Why are you here?"

Nicole cleared her throat and replied, "Mr. Xiao, Zoe asked me to bring you coffee."

"Go and tell her to bring in all the materials needed for the project she is working on." At that moment, Barton was so angry at how Zoe tried to hide from him after expressing her love. Above anything else, he didn't want this to happen.

Doing as she was told, Nicole went out and relayed the message to Zoe. Zoe sorted out the materials and put them in front of Nicole. "Go and take them in," she said.

"Me?" Nicole was stunned to hear what she was tasked to do. Barton was not in a good mood, so she didn't want to get in his office again.
