A Vengeful Ex-Wife novel Chapter 93

There were hundreds of employees in HL Group's finance department. James was in a generous mood —he would treat the entire finance department out for coffee today, the design department tomorrow, and the secretory department the day after that, etc. All of that would be done at Miracle Cafe.

Summer was a little surprised. She was not sure he meant Maria's cafe. She asked tentatively, "Mr. Xi, shall I make arrangements with your favorite coffee shop?"

"No need," James replied without hesitation. "Talk to Miracle Cafe."

Inwardly, Summer gave Maria a thumbs-up sign. She knew that Maria could handle James well.

"Yes, Mr. Xi. I'll go and buy coffee there."

Before Summer left to do just that, James said, "The coffee should be free. Just tell them I said that."

Summer gaped. She couldn't believe her ears. 'Mr. Xi is such a freeloader!'

When she thought about it a minute, Summer had to admit it wasn't his usual style. Maybe he had an agreement with Maria.

When Maria heard that James ordered coffee for the finance department, she did some quick math. From what she could calculate, that was roughly six hundred cups of coffee for takeout. That would rapidly blow through her stores of coffee. Though she was always calm, she went crazy quickly.

Her eyes wide open, she stared at a helpless Summer and asked in a hushed voice, "Is this James' attempt to collect on the three mil I owe him?

I'd rather sleep with him."

"You should tell him that!" Summer would be delighted to see the two remarry.

"Humph!" Maria rolled her eyes at Summer and curled her lips. "You wish!" 'James Xi is such a jerk! I'm so done with that guy,' she thought to herself in disdain.

However, Maria couldn't deny James had just helped her piss off her sisters. She thought it over and ask Summer to pass on a message to him. "I can only do three hundred cups today. I can get him the rest of the order tomorrow."

"Okay." Summer would definitely agree.

Hearing her report, James seemed to be okay with it. As long as Maria was busy, she wouldn't come bug him.

James had made a wise decision this time. Maria had been busy with the coffee shop and had no time to make trouble for him. At least she wouldn't have time to think about anything else, and Alina would stay quiet as well. James was quite happy to have a break from it.

However, this situation only lasted three days. On the fourth day when Maria received the order from HL Group, she stopped and leaned against the bar counter, lost in thought. She had been making coffee all the time in the past few days and she was so tired. Looking at the coffee machine that had been going non-stop, she came to an idea.

A moment later, she entered the HL Group building, a cup of coffee in hand.

Miracle Cafe had been filling coffee orders for the nearby office building every day. All the security guards got to know all the shop assistants, including Maria.

Therefore, it was easy for her to get in and walk straight to James' office.

Getting to his floor, Maria didn't see Lorenzo or Summer when she stepped out of the elevator. Only two young assistants remained in their seats.

Maria was almost a regular visitor here, so all James' assistants knew her by now. Seeing Maria walk out of the elevator, the two assistants exchanged glances and let her in.

Maria winked at the two girls. "Thanks, you two. If you have time, please come to Miracle Cafe. Mention my name and there'll be free coffee for you!" "Thank you very much, Ms. Song," they chirped happily. They liked Maria much more than Alina.

"You're welcome. I'm here to bring coffee to your boss. I'll go find him now."

"Please go ahead, Ms. Song!"

"Okay!"
