His Second Wife

Chapter 67

~Christopher’s POV~

Camila was able to acquire control of my business for some unknown reason. The fact that she did it doesn’t even make me mad. My wife stole something that rightfully belonged to me. I really ought to be fuming with rage. Nonetheless, I couldn’t help but laugh out loud at the situation. I am a dick, and I am getting what I deserve because of it. The clothes that she wore today are absolutely perfect for her and make her appear very lovely and powerful. As for the two jackasses who lost their jobs as a result of disrespecting her, well, they deserved it. I have been wanting to fire them for some time now and Camille did it within minutes. I squinted my eyes at the elderly gentleman sitting next to me. He doesn’t appear to be the least bit surprised by what just happened. I have a sneaking suspicion that he is keeping something from me, but I’m not going to bother him about it. If he doesn’t want to tell me, I won’t force him. I know my grandfather is hiding something. After she finished speaking to us, I watched as everybody exited the room. I am aware that the media is currently waiting for me to make a statement. It’s possible that Camila and everyone else will be taken aback by what I have to say. After giving my family one more look, I closed the door behind me and walked away. One thing that I am aware of is the fact that I have a tendency to underestimate my wife. Camila is a true Grayston; she may be young, but she is powerful. It is possible that she read the so-called divorce papers before she decided to seize control of the corporation. Nevertheless, before she is put under a great deal of pressure, there is one thing that I have to make perfectly clear. As soon as I came into the conference room, I noticed that it was, as expected, completely occupied. After entering, I immediately made my position known and began speaking to members of the press.

“My ex-wife, Camila Mendoza, is currently the proprietor of Grayston Group, and also the company that my family founded. I can only speak for my company, which she now owns. Because I transferred 70 percent of Grayston Group to Liam Grayston upon the birth of my son, my ex-wife now owns the company. Grayston Group was originally owned by my son, but now that he is a juvenile and my ex- wife has custody of our son, she is the legal owner of Grayston Group. My son is the original owner of

the company. When my kid becomes 18, he will evaluate the situation and decide whether he wants his mother to continue to run the business or whether he wants to take over the reins himself.”

The stunned silence that pervaded the entire meeting room was palpable. There was a question that was posed by one of the journalists.

“Oh my goodness, Mr. Grayston, you are the epitome of a gentleman in every sense of the word. I’m just going to pray that you’re successful in your efforts to win back your wife. The lady is a wonderful and trustworthy individual. She raised your child as her own and now she even has custody of him.” Everyone in my vicinity agreed.

Whenever they started to propose that I go back to my wife, I got up and departed right away. I needed some time to refresh myself and be ready for Camila’s launch, so I headed back home. I made an attempt to phone Mary in order to inquire about the color of Camila’s outfit, and it went rather well. At this moment, the only thing that I desire is my wife. Even if she were to take away all that I have ever labored so hard to achieve, I still want her. I have no objections to it. Despite the fact that she is my wife, I have treated her unfairly on numerous occasions. I donned an Armani suit and prepared to attend the launch of my wife’s label.

“Carman, you are so fucking stupid! You are stupid! That girl has cheated you out of everything that you have ever worked so hard to achieve. You are going to fight that girl for my grandson. Do you understand?”

“You told me you never wanted anything that had Grayston blood. I was also not ready to be a mother. However, now that Grayston’s ownership has changed hands, Father, I can assure you that I will regain custody of my son, along with the ownership of Grayston. That corporation has a significant financial advantage over their family-owned enterprise.”

“I don’t care, Carman; I want you to obtain that company by any means necessary, even if it means bringing that jerk of a son home,” said the old man to his daughter. “I don’t care. And you, what is the progress?” The old man asked his son.

“Father, I have been sending her flowers anonymously.”

That’s not good enough. Today there is a Cammy launch. Find out who the owner of Cammy is and seduce her, too. We need to rule San Diego, not Grayston.”

“Alright father, because everyone in San Diego is going to the launch party, I have no doubt that that little girl will go there.” The young man answered his father.

“Yeah, I’m also going. Take your sister with you. And Carman, make sure you succeed in trapping Chris today. Make sure to tell him that you want your son and you want the two of you to work.” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

~Third-person viewpoint~

This is becoming an extremely terrifying situation right now. It’s been years, but I’ve finally gotten around to concealing my tracks. Why the hell did he have to give that girl everything? fucking why! He never cared about bitches. Now I will have to go after his teeny weeny wife. Shit! Besides, I’ve always liked Camila. Her confidence and her entire demeanor. Carman had the option to take on the responsibility of raising that cretin as a son. She could have been the owner of Chris’s company. Anyway, since he divorced her, I wouldn’t be breaking any rules if I pursued his ex-wife, would I? He did get a divorce from her, after all. After all, she has everything he doesn’t. This cretin is succeeding in business despite the fact that he is not forthcoming with information. I have spent years looking through his files, but I have never been able to find any indication that he ever left a trail. However, Camila is only a young girl, and she has little experience in the business world; as a result, she is simple to deceive. The future of not one but two major corporations rests in the hands of a greenhorn. I will take away from the Grayston family everything they have ever toiled for, and, of course, I will take Chris’s

life as well. If you know what I mean, I mean that he is the only member of the Grayston family who is capable of causing harm to my family.
