DIVORCED : Rejected Billionaire Heir Chap 80 :
Joe was curled up in his blanket. His eyes hadn't been able to close since last night, and only now was he able to fall asleep just as the clock struck four in the morning. "Joe, wake up. Aren't you working?" Jesslyn gently shook her husband's body. "Hm?" Joe mumbled, his eyes still feeling heavy and as if they were clinging so tightly that they couldn't open. "Yes?" he replied hoarsely. "Aren't you working today? It's 7am now," Jesslyn replied. The statement made by his wife was like water splashing over his entire body until Joe gasped in shock and immediately opened his eyes. "What?!" Joe glared, his eyes moving from looking at his wife who looked shocked by his shout, to the digital clock that was located right beside the bed. "It's already 7:00 am?" beamed Joe. "Yes, it's already 7am. I've been trying to wake you up since an hour ago, but you didn't respond at all. Do you have today off to be this relaxed?" asked Jesslyn.Suddenly, Joe shook his head. "I have an important m

"Them again," Joe growled, silently crumpling the paper inside the box, the paper containing the crest of the most famous and mysterious family in the country. "Sir? Are you all right?" Cristine asked, afraid she had made a mistake, especially when she saw the boss's angry expression. "No, I'm not. Let's get out of here," Joe said. Hurrying, he walked ahead of Cristine and got into the car parked neatly in front of the restaurant. While waiting for his secretary, who had been left behind, he looked back at the wad of paper still in his hand. "What else do you want, huh? Aren't you satisfied with destroying me yet?" he scolded."Hurry up, Cristine!" called Joe, half shouting as his secretary was still far behind. "Sorry, sir." Cristine bowed her head slightly before getting into the car. "Someone stopped me while catching up with you, so I'm quite far behind," she explained. "Hmm," Joe responded flatly.They left the restaurant, heading to SkyLand Company to continue their pending
DIVORCED : Rejected Billionaire Heir Chap 82 : I'm Here
Joe looked sarcastically at his grandfather who was sitting casually on his living room sofa. He was only staring from afar, and it never entered his mind to approach the man he hadn't seen in a long time. "Come here, Joe. Don't you miss my grandfather one bit?" Kevin, the 60-year-old man straightened his posture, his hand waving for his grandson to come closer. "Never. I will never obey my orders again," Joe retorted fiercely. His breathing was ragged, his face showing a very frightening expression. "Don't argue, Joe! Have you forgotten what happened last time when you argued and disobeyed my orders?" Kevin snapped. The aura of leadership was still strong, so that anyone who was around him felt reluctant, and Joe was no exception. "No." Joe was still adamant about his words, so Kevin exhaled harshly when he saw his grandson increasingly disobeying his orders. "What's Grandpa coming here for, huh? Does Grandpa want to ruin my life once again?" Joe accused. He was still standing,

"You? What do you want exactly?" asked Joe while suppressing every sentence that came out of his lips. He wanted so badly to yell at his grandfather, but he didn't want Jesslyn to worry, or even panic because she didn't know anything about his problems with Kevin. "What for? To see my grandson's wife, of course. You're so mean not to tell your grandfather, Joe, when the house you're using is so close to mine." Kevin's words sounded desperate and disappointed, and Joe knew that his grandfather was trying to win Jesslyn over by acting like a helpless old man. "Jess, can I talk to you for a minute? Just the two of you," Joe cut in. Jesslyn who heard it was of course confused, she gave Kevin a glance, then asked permission from her husband's grandfather to go into the room for a while. "What's wrong?" asked Jesslyn after closing the door to her room. "Explain to me, how did that old man get into the house? And why did you let him in?" asked Joe."I didn't let him in when he first kn

In the morning, Joe felt a sense of relief after telling Jesslyn everything. "Good morning, Babe," Joe said after coming out of the room, and immediately hugged his wife who was busy preparing breakfast. "Morning," Jesslyn replied briefly. "How did you sleep? If you still feel tired or sleepy, just go back to sleep. I've contacted Cristine to reschedule your activities for today." "No, I didn't. I'm not tired anymore, especially after explaining what really happened to you.""That means you're feeling tired and under-rested because you're thinking too much about your grandfather's sudden arrival, right?" Jesslyn guessed. *Hmmmm." Joe nodded. "Don't underestimate that old man. He's too powerful, he also has a lot of money. So, he can do anything to get his way." Jesslyn shuddered. "I didn't expect that your grandfather's innocent expression could deceive me so well yesterday."Joe chuckled. "Yes, that's so. But I feel relieved that I told you everything." Jesslyn raised one eyebro
DIVORCED : Rejected Billionaire Heir Chap 85 : Indecisive
"I'm sorry, Joe. But I can't let the company go to you because the Seattle Group will falter now that someone else has taken over one of its strongest pillars," Lucas explained. "In other words, with SkyLand Company's ownership transferring to you in its entirety, Seattle Group's balance will be disrupted, and I don't want to take the risk of you cutting off the cooperation between our companies in the future." Hearing Lucas's explanation, which sounded very reasonable, Joe could only exhale his breath roughly. His mind was split, and honestly, he felt very disappointed that his hope of owning SkyLand Company could not run smoothly. "I honestly don't know what to do now, Lucas. I'm sure Kevin Bouguler wouldn't just show up out of nowhere. He must want something from me, so I must have a firm grip to face his attacks, and the only way I can think of is to take over SkyLand Company," Joe said."If you want a strong grip and a head start, you don't need to take over this company, Joe.

In accordance with the orders given by his boss, Joshua returned to his room again and contacted the receptionist who had been waiting since earlier in the company lobby. "Please invite Mr. Kevin to come upstairs," Joshua ordered. It didn't take long for the elevator right in front of Joshua's room to open, and the man quickly approached Kevin. "Welcome, Mr. Kevin. Please, Mr. Lucas is waiting for you inside." Joshua invited Kevin to enter after knocking on the door as a code to Lucas that his guest had arrived. "Hmm," was Kevin's only response, no thanks at all coming from the man's lips. "I think I'd rather take a leave of absence than have to deal with a guest like this," Joshua mused as he shuddered in horror at the intimidating aura that surrounded Kevin from earlier. "Sorry, sir. You can't go inside because Mr. Lucas only lets Mr. Kevin in," Joshua interrupted when he saw Kevin's two bodyguards wanting to follow their boss' lead. The two bodyguards wanted to argue, but K
DIVORCED : Rejected Billionaire Heir Chap 87 : Wrath
Joe pounded his desk loudly. One problem was unfinished, and now it had to be added to another. "What is the reason Mr. Bristone canceled the purchase? Didn't he really like the property we built? He even plans to become an official investor of SkyLand Company. So, how could he just cancel the purchase?" Joe bombarded Cristine with many questions. His mind was getting frantic. If it had only been Mr. Bristone who had canceled the purchase, Joe would not have been this panicked and upset. As someone who has been in the business world for a long time, Joe certainly knows that the decision made by a big businessman can make other businessmen make the same decision. And look at it now, it's all proven by the withdrawal of several prospective buyers, even buyers who have already paid a down payment also canceled their purchase. "I don't know either, sir. Mr. Bristone's secretary contacted me and said that her boss canceled the purchase. When I asked her why, she immediately hung up." C

Chap 173 : Who, Mom?
Jonathan accelerated his footsteps towards the place his father had indicated. His heart was beating so fast it was hard for him to hold back his anger towards the man who had deceived him. "Yesterday, you got away because I was still kind to you, Mark. But not this time. I will make you feel what is called hell on earth!" Jonathan was determined. With one step left to the warehouse where his captive was kept, Jonathan tried to control himself. He inhaled and exhaled many times to keep his emotions and expressions under control, so Mark would have no opportunity to fight him later. "Wow, didn't I see it wrong? The person I thought had gone to the other side of the world is still loyal to this country," Jonathan chuckled. Not forgetting, he showed a cruel grin to intimidate his opponent. Mark, who Jonathan had already tortured, was naturally very scared now. If he were free from the shackles that bound him at the moment, he would indeed run as far away from the man as possible. "W

Chap 172
Joe visits Oddie after not seeing the man for a long time. The relationship between the two of them was quite good, especially after Sarah died and Oddie decided to consider Jesslyn as his daughter. And now, Joe's purpose for coming to see Oddie was to discuss what was happening at Skyland Company. He wanted to get some advice that might help him to overcome the problems that were happening, especially since the man was quite an influential person and had a lot of experience. "So, the news about SkyLand Company going downhill is true?" Oddie asked. He, whose condition had improved, took a sip of tea served by one of the servants in his house. "Yes, Mr. Oddie. I would like to hear your opinion on the problems that SkyLand Company is facing. Moreover, you are one of the investors in my company, so you might be able to give some thoughts from your perspective as an investor," Joe pleaded. "Call me dad, Joe. Aren't we family now? Don't be so formal when we're not in the office," Oddie

Chap 171 : What's going on?
Joe returned to work as usual, and Cristine welcomed her boss with great joy. After a long time of authorizing Cristine to take care of the company, Joe finally sat down in his work chair as he began his task of solving the many problems that had befallen Skyland Company lately. "What about the investors who have withdrawn their funds, Cristine? Are they willing to come back and entrust their money to SkyLand Company after I start working again?" Joe asked Cristine who was handing over some important files that required the man's signature. "No, Mr. Joe." Cristine took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly to ease the tightness attacking her chest. "I've investigated everything, Mr. Joe. And there seems to be a reason why they withdrew the investment." Hearing the explanation from his secretary, Joe looked interested. He stopped what he was doing for a moment, then looked at Cristine and gave her the code to explain further."When you handed over the main task to me to lead SkyLan

Chap 170
Aaron and Esther left Zack who was still faithful to shouting incoherently, berating and insulting Aaron so that the man would come back and deal with his current behavior. Unfortunately, Aaron was not provoked at all. He didn't care about Zack's screams, and neither did Esther. After coming out of the room that held Zack, Esther immediately dropped her body onto the sofa located not far away. She looked tired. "It turns out that dealing with someone like Zack is tiring too, huh? I didn't expect him to still be able to fight back when he's in such a tight spot." Esther chuckled, as if she had forgotten what Zack had done to her earlier. "Zack is like that. Why do you think Joe chose to kick him out of the house instead of forgiving him?" Aaron narrowed his eyes, then snapped his fingers as Esther looked back at him with furrowed brows. "Yep, Zack is the type of person who doesn't know himself. That's why, Joe would rather let him go than have to live with him for the rest of his l

Chap 169 : Hallucination?
Joe took a deep breath, he asked Cristine to go home first and he would think about what he would do next. Ben, who was visiting his daughter at the time, immediately approached Joe and patted him on the shoulder. "You can focus on your work again, Joe. As for Jesslyn, let me take care of her. When she regains consciousness, then I'll let you know." "But, Dad?" Joe wanted to argue. He wanted to be by his wife's side at all times. He doesn't want that when she woke up, he wouldn't be by her side. Joe knew that Jesslyn would be devastated to learn that their future child had died in her womb, and he wanted to be by her side to give her encouragement and strength. "There's no refusal, Joe. This is all for the good of everyone." Ben tried to open Joe's mind. "Think about it, if your company were to go downhill, you would have to cut back on employees, which would affect the families of those employees because the head of their family would no longer have a job. In addition, your finan

"We're sorry, your future child cannot be saved. Mrs. Jesslyn's condition is also still not improving, she is still in a critical condition and will have to be admitted into the ICU after this. This is because she was brought to the hospital too late, and the patient has already lost a lot of blood." The doctor's explanation was like a sledgehammer hitting Joe's heart. He sat down, then covered his face. Not long after, there was a numb voice. The man was crying, because he had to get such a painful fact when his life was already on top. Joe didn't expect that this painful thing could happen to him. And this time he couldn't do anything but wait for his wife's condition to improve. "Joe." Rosetta approached her son-in-law and put her hand on his shoulder as a form of transferring strength and encouragement.Honestly, in the deepest corner of her heart, Rosetta felt very guilty for having to lie about the real reason for Jesslyn's fall. However, she was forced to do this so that Zac

Chap 167 : Bad news
Rosetta rushed over to her daughter who had fallen and was moaning in pain. With shaky steps from shock, she struggled to help Jesslyn up. "Argh! It hurts!" Jesslyn cried out, her breathing labored and her face starting to turn pale. Rosetta was getting more and more worried and scared when she saw the condition that befell her daughter, her mind was too raging that she couldn't think clearly to find another way out so that her daughter could be saved immediately. Meanwhile, Zack, who didn't know that the impulse he was making had a very bad impact, immediately trembled. Instead of helping his sister, Zack pulled his mother and threatened the woman who had given birth to him. "Mommy, don't tell anyone what happened today! If you dare to do that, then I will act recklessly!" After saying that, Zack quickly left Rosetta who was rooted to the spot. The middle-aged woman's mind was raging, and her consciousness seemed to return after hearing Jesslyn moan for the last time before col

Chap 166 : Blood
"Yes, Mommy was expelled by Grandpa from the house after the resistance she put up. I'm actually confused as to why Mommy even fought back, even though from the stories of some of the bodyguards, since the beginning of Mommy's punishment she doesn't dare to fight Grandpa. Even facing or looking into Grandpa's eyes, Mommy doesn't dare." Jonathan explained. "Then, where did Aunty Quina go? Does she have somewhere to sleep tonight?" Joe asked, wanting to extract more information from his cousin. "I don't know because I didn't have time to ask Mommy either. Mommy chose to leave after being kicked out and she doesn't say anything either. But, I think Mommy must have somewhere to go whether it's a hotel or an inn to sleep tonight. Moreover, Grandpa also gave her money before Mommy." "So, that means aunty Quina didn't leave empty-handed, right?" Joe asked again, which was immediately greeted with a nod by Jonathan. "But why did Aunty prefer to go together with Aaron instead of looking fo

Chap 165 : Expulsion
Quina was sitting restlessly at the front of the cafe near her house that provided a place to relax for customers who wanted to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. "Where's Aaron? What took him so long?" Quina chuckled in annoyance. Every now and then she took a sip of the coffee she had ordered in order to sit in that part of the cafe. After taking a sip of the coffee, Quina's face looked different. Her brow furrowed, and her eyes narrowed. "What is this coffee? It doesn't taste very good." Quina looked disgustedly at the coffee, then pushed the glass away from her body. "It turns out that I was right in my assumption that the food and drinks usually consumed by the lower middle class are very bad. I feel like spitting out the coffee I just drank." Quina said quite loudly, and her words provoked various reactions from the people around her, especially the visitors who were mostly students. Those who heard the inappropriate sentence immediately booed Quina openly and it made her even mo
