"Mr. Andersen, Mr. Clarkson from Clarkson International is in the reception area waiting to see you. Would you like me to send him in?" Paul said respectfully as Magnus walked into the office.
What on earth brought Kyler here at this time? Could it be that Kendra had finally agreed to a divorce? Upon hearing Paul's words, Magnus couldn't help but ponder. However, something didn't seem right. If Kendra, that detestable woman, had indeed agreed to a divorce, a simple phone call from Kyler would have sufficed for Magnus to get his team on it. Why would Kyler need to go out of his way to visit Andersen Corporation in person?
Confused and suspicious, Magnus coolly told his assistant, "Send him in." With that, he entered the CEO's office of Andersen Corporation.
It wasn't long before there was a knock on Magnus' office door. Kyler came in, followed by a woman.
Magnus shot a glance at the woman and immediately frowned, his displeasure clear on his face. Kendra dared to appear before him after the last time he had dealt with her! Her audacity was just too much!
Kendra, standing behind Kyler, didn't care how displeased Magnus looked. Feeling Magnus' gaze on her, she straightened her back to show off her figure, accentuated by her provocative clothing, to the best advantage. She thought to herself, "Humph, if that brat Natalia could seduce Magnus, then I am confident that with a little effort, I can make him succumb to my charm!"
Magnus must have fallen for Natalia because he had lived on Sapphire Island since childhood and had never seen a truly enchanting woman. So, she believed that once she made a move, Magnus would not only be unable to resist her but would be begging for her attention. The very idea of Natalia trying to take her place as Mrs. Andersen was ludicrous!
Kendra was sure her tactics would allure Magnus and pique his interest. However, her actions only disgusted Magnus, successfully igniting his anger. Therefore, Magnus' icy gaze swiftly shifted to Kyler, who was standing in front of Kendra, and he asked irritably, "Mr. Clarkson, what's the meaning of this?"
He had approached Kyler to get Kendra to divorce him. He did not ask Kyler to bring his shameless daughter to flaunt herself in front of him.
Kendra and his innocent Natalia were sisters; Magnus felt that Natalia was truly unfortunate.
"Uh, Mr. Andersen, don't be angry. Here is the situation. Kendra said that she could agree to a divorce, but she must talk to you face to face. So I just...”
Seeing Magnus' displeasure, Kyler was naturally frightened. He quickly began explaining that Kendra insisted on meeting Magnus in person before agreeing to a divorce.
Kyler knew that bringing Kendra to Andersen Corporation would undoubtedly provoke Magnus. But in the end, he could not resist Natalia's persistent persuasion and agreed to this request. He thought that perhaps if Kendra met with Magnus, she would finally give up and willingly proceed with the divorce.
