When Aidan entered the elevator, he met Zack's cold and hard stare.
Seeing the scowl on his boss’ face, he decided not to say anything.
He thought of how Zack suddenly came to talk to Luke in person.
Aidan was confident that it was all because of Katherine.
Luke was startled when his boss broke the silence in the small space.
"Is Luke really that awesome?"
Before Zack even asked him, Aidan was already thinking about the gossip surrounding both Luke and
Katherine these past few days.
He was tongue-tied for a moment.
He turned to look at Zack, only to find him looking back at him with a grim expression.
With a nervous smile, Aidan pursed his lips and replied, "Mr.Hoffman was someone alright, but how
can he possibly compare to you?"
"Sucking up to me, Aidan?"
Zack sneered at how his assistant tried to get into his good favor.
Aidan knew not to say anything else.
Although his words had a bit of flattery laced in them, he was also speaking the truth.
Luke might be a formidable man, but Zack was definitely not lacking in any way either.
Everyone said that Zack was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and that he was fortunate to have a
wealthy family.
These talks were all nonsense.
Zack wasn't the only person who had a privileged background.
But there were only a handful of people similar to Zack who could develop and expand their family
businesses into one of the biggest companies around the globe.
Back in the old days, it was easy to start a company.
But it was a challenge to maintain its success.
Q City Corporation was founded by his father, but the world was changing day by day.
Many of the former leading industries went bankrupt, but Q City Corp.
was still standing strong.
Wasn't it all thanks to him, the man who grew and protected his empire? Having worked for Zack for
quite some time, Aidan understood his boss's thinking, so although he felt a little hurt, he did not argue.
Everyone else around them was silent, and Zack was annoyed by the lack of response from his
assistant.
"Why aren't you talking? Didn't you have a lot to say just now?" Aidan trembled at Zack's jab at him.
"Mr.Colburn...In fact, what I just said...It was the truth.”Zack scoffed and taunted his assistant, "Then
who do you think is a better match for Katherine? Me or Luke?"
Aidan felt his heart drop at the question.
He knew his answer would determine whether he would be dead or alive in the next few moments.
There was an intensity in Zack's gaze, and it pressed down on Aidan to the point that he almost
couldn't breathe.
Just as he was about to go against his own better judgment and speak up, he suddenly saw a familiar
figure.
Getting off the elevator beside theirs was Katherine! It was as if the angels heard Aidan's prayers and
willed for her to show up just in time.
He hurriedly pointed to her direction and exclaimed, "Mr.Colburn, look! It's Ms.Wilson!"
Zack frowned at the way his assistant was acting.
He said, "Do you like her? Why are you so excited to see her?"
Aidan didn't want to provoke his boss any further, so he kept silent.
‘‘What? Was it my fault for even being born in this world?’’ Aidan thought.
He was being exaggerated while fearing his boss’ evident temper.
After sending Aidan a sharp look, Zack turned his attention to where his assistant was pointing at.
Sure enough, he saw his ex-wife's familiar back.
He pursed his lips and quickly followed her.
Katherine was walking to her car when she saw Zack walking towards her from the rearview mirror.
She couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
She was about to open the door to her car but suddenly decided against it.
Instead, she rested her hand on the door and watched as Zack made his way towards her.
She was dressed casually today, wearing a white-collared sweater and a simple pair of jeans.
She also had a pair of black leather boots on her feet.
Her outfit made her legs look straight and slender.
She leaned against the red Ferrari, looking like a professional car model.
Her sultry eyes curved into a faint smile as she looked straight at her ex-husband.
Zack felt his heart flutter.
The next second, he stopped in front of Katherine and asked, "Are you so eager to find your next
husband after our divorce?"
