The words of the butler, now ringing in the ears of an infuriated Kendra, left her speechless. With anger bubbling in her heart, Kendra had no choice but to concede. She clenched her teeth and glared at the butler. "Fine, go tell Lucius. I don't believe he won't see me!"
The last time at Andersen Corporation, Lucius had disregarded all consequences, and did not care about offending Magnus. He just dragged her into his office to fuck her. That was all because she had met with Magnus, which caused Lucius to lose his temper.
From this, Kendra could tell that Lucius' feelings towards her were rather complex from the start, so, she wasn't worried about Lucius refusing to see her out of anger. After all, who was to blame for Lucius' incompetence, forcing her to lower herself and appease Magnus?
Kendra had finally agreed to let the butler inform Lucius, and the butler, who had been tormented by Kendra, didn't dare to stay a second longer and hurried into the apartment.
When Lucius heard that Kendra had come to see him, he couldn't believe it at first. But when he heard from the butler that it was indeed Kendra, he sneered and said, "What is she doing here? Haven't I already said that if she comes to see me again, just kick her out?"
The fact that Kendra had abandoned Lucius to curry favor with Magnus, was an immense insult to him. He would never allow anyone to step over him, especially Magnus, who had continuously stolen his position and his woman! He despised Kendra.
"Yes, sir." Since Lucius once again wanted to drive Kendra away, the butler didn't dare to say anything and quietly retreated, ready to drive Kendra away. But before he could get to the door, Lucius, who had just been gloomy, suddenly changed his mind.
He then called out to the butler, "Let her in!" He wanted to see what tricks she was going to play today.
Thinking about it, what he did in his office that day, although impulsive, was only to show Magnus that his wife screamed under him. Perhaps the whole corporation was now gossiping, saying that Magnus, the cripple, couldn't provide happiness for his wife, and only he could. The fact that his legal wife was fucked by another man in his own company must have been a hard pill to swallow.
What right did such a useless cripple have to be the CEO of Andersen Corporation?
Even though he had a moment of satisfaction, Lucius thought about how his grandfather had actually sided with Magnus due to their dispute and pressured him to go to the Middle East, where he almost died. He couldn't bear this.
The anger was stuck in his throat, almost choking him to death.
He had worked diligently for Andersen Corporation for years and contributed so much to the company. Why couldn't his grandfather see it? In his heart, his most outstanding grandchild was actually Magnus, the cripple.
Lucius wouldn't bear such humiliation. He would one day show his grandfather that he was the best.
