14 After saying that , I turned and walked away. Jax Ryder followed me step for step . I tilted my head slightly and asked him , " Shouldn't you be training ? Why are you here ? " " I received an invitation too . " He lowered his gaze slightly , looking into my eyes . " And you haven't contacted me these past few days . I … missed you , Eve . " 21:40 Tue , 26 Aug I had indeed been very busy these past few days . Busy snatching food from the tiger's mouth . Originally , I only came tonight to confirm if Alex was really here . To prevent him from making any new moves right before the contract was about to be signed . Fortunately , I had overestimated Alex . He had always looked down on me . That's why , in these four years of marriage , I had secretly started a company under his nose , acquired an e - sports team , and then brought it back to life . Navigating between Thorne Enterprises and Harding Corp , I built up my company step by step by extracting information , finally reaching this point . Snapping back to reality , we had already reached the doorway . I hadn't yet figured out how to respond to Jax Ryder's direct words when a group of reporters surrounded us . " Ms. Cross , are you the other person in that car photo from that night ? " " Has your marriage with Mr. Thorne ended ? " " Openly cheating during your marriage , Ms. Cross , what are your thoughts ? Appearing so brazenly with your lover at such an event , aren't you ashamed , or do you take pride in it ? " The last reporter's question carried obvious , undisguised malice . I stared at the male reporter's subtly excited and disdainful eyes and suddenly laughed : " Shouldn't you be asking that question to Alex Thorne , who's sitting inside ? " " From the second day after we got married four years ago , he was photographed, on average , every two months , with different new girlfriends entering various venues . What did all say back then ? " < I tapped my chin with a finger , a look of sudden realization on my face . 3 % " Oh , you said that high - society marriages are all driven by mutual interests , it's normal to get what you want , and it's perfectly normal to keep a young , agreeable person by your side . " " If I truly cheated , then Alex Thorne was the first to violate our marriage contract . He was at fault , and I was simply retaliating ." " Furthermore , my relationship with Jax Ryder isn't what you're all imagining . " As I spoke , I subtly took a step back . Unobtrusively dodging his attempt to take my hand . " You've all been curious , haven't you , about who the mysterious investor who acquired his team , Sunstone Gaming , is , and who currently holds the largest share ? " The boy sharply turned his head . In a sudden gust of cold , crisp night wind , I spoke calmly and indifferently , " I'm his boss ."
