Mr Ceo's Pregnant Ex-wife

My eyes stretched wider. The document was a resignation letter from one of the employees, this time it was from the head of finance.

I picked another document… then another… and another. It all contains the same thing—employees resignation letter—approximately five-hundred of them in total.

It seems I wasn't the only one who didn't like my step-brother's character. It appeared that there's a number of employees who didn't favor him as well. If he continues to be a jerk, I wonder if there will be a single employee left in the company after a year.

Shaking my head in disbelief, I returned the documents to the same position I found them on the floor. I walked towards the desk and pulled the drawers open.

'Holy sh*t' I said the words allowed after the contents of the drawer sprung free. There was a stash of cash, a dozen boxes of cigarettes, and a pack of unused condoms. This was the most ridiculous item I ever found inside a respectable man's office which proves he wasn't as respectable inside.

If Ybbrahim Greyson found out what Vince did to the office, he would undoubtedly kill his legitimate son.

But before Ybbrahim could get his hands dirty, I would do it first. I wanted to kill my step-brother using my bare hands. I doubt if I will feel a tinge of regret afterwards. Vince deserves it all. But Vince didn't deserve a quick death, he was too evil to have a peaceful death. He must suffer while he's alive.

I closed the drawer with more force than required and proceeded to open the cabinet leaning on the wall. The drawers contained files, I might find some useful stuff inside. However when I pulled the handle open, it wouldn't budge. I discovered that it was locked. Using the object that looked like a hairpin which I fished from inside my pocket, I picked the lock until there was a soft click, the glass cover opened. A triumphant smile crossed on my lips.

The sound of footsteps alerted my senses. I nervously eyed the door, ready to attack if necessary.

"Sorry, I must have surprised you." Lucas Nicholas, said apologetically upon opening the door. He got inside and closed the door behind him afterwards.

I let go a relieved sigh when I saw Lucas. Damn! He nearly gave me a mini heart-attack. After I recovered my composure, I resumed looking at the files in front of me.

Lucas moved to the file cabinet on the opposite side of the room to help me?look for necessary documents that could be of help.

My eyes shifted to my wristwatch to check the time. I've been inside the office for nearly an hour but I wasn't able to find anything useful to prove Vince guilty of embezzlement. But I'm not giving up until I find what I'm searching for. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚ｗ𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

I checked all the files inside the cabinet but I failed to find the documents I was looking for. No matter how hard I search this place, I will never find the evidence against Vince. In the first place, he will never put an important document just anywhere inside the room. There must be some secret place here where he hides them. Perhaps a secret safe or a hidden compartment somewhere inside the room.

"Have you found anything?" I asked after I stood up to stretch my legs.

"Unfortunately, none." Lucas replied, threw me a quick glance before he cast his undivided attention back to the documents in his hand.

I moved back to the desk in hopes there were some important files which I missed. My toes collided with a hard object from under the table. When I peered underneath, there was a black attaché case. It was hidden there on purpose. If my shoes didn't hit it, I wouldn't even know that it was there.

Curious, I lifted the case and placed it on top of the table. Seeing my discovery, Lucas got curious too. He slowly emerged from the sea of files surrounding him and reached my side after a couple of quick steps.

I opened the attaché case. My eyes landed on the thick envelope safely secured inside. My hands were trembling from anticipation as I picked the files and tore it open. I really read what was written as if it depended on my life.

My heartbeat increased until I could barely breathe. The ominous feeling that descended upon me was too strong to ignore. My eyes scanned the written contents. fre𝙚𝓌𝒆𝚋noѵel.c𝚘m

Gasping from shock, I lowered the paper which suddenly felt heavy against my trembling fingers. Lucas didn't say anything at first. The more he looked at me the more his curiosity deepened. When he couldn't take the suspense anymore, he grabbed the document from my hand.

Lucas gasped after he finished reading it. His face filled with disbelief when his eyes shifted back to me.

I couldn't believe that Vince sold the company without informing Ybbrahim Greyson. Not only did he sell the company but the Greyson Mansion would be seized by a creditor?as one of the collateral for his debts.

Aside from that, a number of creditors were demanding his payment. Some of them have already filed a complaint. Vince was doomed…. There was no one he could blame except himself. He neglected the company and he supplied his gambling addiction with the company funds. He needs to pay for what he did. He was served with what he deserved.

"If Ybbrahim Greyson sees that, he would undoubtedly disown your stepbrother." Lucas commented, his shock hasn't subsided yet. He handed me the file which I hastily returned inside before closing the attaché case.

I didn't respond. That was exactly what I'm thinking. No one is going to stop from doing it. Tomorrow morning, I will send the files to Ybbrahim. Nothing would shock him more?than knowing the company he worked hard for years was ruined by his legitimate son.

"I have everything I need now. Let's leave this building before anyone sees us." I made a beeline straight on the door, Lucas followed behind me.
