Divorced But Not Defeated The Military Queen’s Rise Again novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 We Were Once Husband And Wife

Trent was momentarily embarrassed. That was because he genuinely believed that the establishment of the company was all due to his own capabilities. The tasks that Quinn had been doing were ones that any project manager could handle.

But now, he had begun to doubt himself, especially since he absolutely needed the patent improvements made by Quinn to secure the island development project.

“I know it’s all my fault, but you shouldn’t take it out on the company!” Trent said, “The company is in dire need of the island development project right now. You shouldn’t ruin the company just for revenge.”

“Revenge?” Quinn found it amusing. “When have I ever sought revenge against you? You used my patent and my project proposal. All I did was highlight it at the investment conference. How is that considered revenge?”

Trent was taken aback. “If you’re not seeking revenge, then hand over the upgraded patent to me!”

Suddenly, Quinn realized that the man before her was even more shameless than she had initially thought.

“Why should I?” she retorted coldly.

“We were once husband and wife…”

“In that case, tell me what exactly have you given me in our marriage?” Quinn retorted. “I’ve been working overtime day in, day out for the company. Yet, when we finally achieved success, I was given no credit, not even a fraction of the wealth. When your mother, sister, and friends mocked me, you didn’t defend me at all. Now, you want to talk about us being husband and wife?”

Trent’s cheeks suddenly felt a wave of warmth.

Quinn’s words had left him feeling ashamed.

He knew that in the three years of their marriage, he had let her down many times.

“I’ll make it up to you,” Trent said.

“I don’t need it!” Quinn sneered, turning around to leave.

“Don’t go…” Trent tried to reach out to grab Quinn.

However, another hand swiftly grabbed his wrist. “Mr. Grafton, what are you trying to do?”

Julius‘ icy voice, paired with his indifferent expression, exerted a domineering pressure on Trent.

“Shouldn’t… Shouldn’t I be the one asking you that question, Mr. Whitethorn?” Trent said in pain, feeling as if his wrist was about to break.

“I’m not doing anything. I just don’t like you touching Quinnie,” Julius said nonchalantly.

The endearing address, Quinnie, felt like a thorn in his side. Trent asked, “And who are you to intervene, Mr. Whitethorn?”

“Is being her boyfriend enough?” asked Julius.

Even Quinn, standing off to the side, looked at Julius in surprise. Uh… I remember telling him that I’ll give him a chance, but I didn’t recall agreeing to be in a relationship!

Quinn is actually dating Julius now? Not long after our divorce, no less!
