Consequences of Dumping the Obsessive Boss: Stuck with Him Forever

Chapter 289: Noah Wants to Take Summer Lowell Away

Maxim Sinclair smiled slightly, "I have more good news to tell you, do you want to hear it?"

"Sure, let’s hear it."

Summer Lowell turned to look at him, not particularly curious, but it wouldn’t hurt to listen, just for entertainment.

"The Huxley Family’s overseas business was just acquired and needs restructuring. No one else can handle this, so I have to personally go abroad."

Maxim Sinclair spoke while watching Summer Lowell intently.

Summer Lowell didn’t flinch or evade, she smiled right at him, "That truly is good news."

"Do you really not want to see me that much?"

Maxim Sinclair’s face also carried a smile, his tone extremely gentle. But Summer Lowell knew full well there was danger hidden within: "Don’t you know that absence makes the heart grow fonder? If we’re always stuck to each other like this, you’ll soon grow tired of me. The contract is for ten years, and if you get bored early, then I’ll be at a great loss."

Her words made Maxim Sinclair feel extremely delighted: "I’ll give you full marks for that answer, but I’m quite curious. What made you agree to a ten-year contract so quickly?"

"Reality," Summer Lowell said very openly, even with an air of having come to terms with it, "After all, I can’t win against you. Instead of running around and making a fool of myself, I might as well accept it. To catch a golden husband like you, it’s a big win for me."

"I’m glad you think that way," Maxim Sinclair hid the dissatisfaction in his eyes, "Being my wife, sharing the Sinclair Family’s wealth with me, is surely a good deal. Of course, if you could..."

What she could do, Maxim Sinclair didn’t finish the sentence.

Summer Lowell didn’t want to ponder what his unfinished words meant either: "So when are you leaving?"

"Tomorrow at noon, happy? Looking forward to it?" Maxim Sinclair suddenly reached out, caressing the dark marks on Summer Lowell’s neck, "If you miss me, just call, and I can arrange a private jet to bring you abroad immediately."

Summer Lowell chuckled coldly to herself.

Unless she lost her mind, she would definitely not call Maxim Sinclair to express her longing.

Maxim Sinclair knew how much Summer Lowell longed for him to leave, and said those things on purpose, hoping to get some desired response from her.

It’s just a pity it didn’t go as he wished.

A bunch of sweet words was said, but not a trace of true heart could be heard.

This little fox, taming her will take some effort.

But that’s okay, slowly waiting, there will come a day when the little fox obediently shows her belly, and once again offers up her little heart that’s carefully hidden and reluctant to expose.

On the third afternoon after Maxim Sinclair went abroad, Summer Lowell was strolling in the park attached to her residence when she met someone she hadn’t seen in a long time.

Noah took off his sunglasses and smiled at the dazed Summer Lowell, "What, you can’t recognize me after not seeing me for such a short time?"

Summer Lowell smiled with pursed lips, "Of course, I recognize President Norris, just surprised to see you here."

She glanced around and tentatively asked, "Does President Norris have a residence nearby?"

Noah shook his head, "I specifically found out where you live and came here to find you."

Came here specifically to find her?

She had been away from that job for so long, what matter could possibly require him to go to such lengths to find her?

Summer Lowell’s face showed a trace of surprise.

"I heard about the struggle between the Sinclair and the Huxley Families, and you," Noah’s face showed a slightly complicated expression, "you were implicated as well."

Summer Lowell pulled a bitter smile, "I can guess how the outside world talks about me, saying I’m a mole, a spy, right?"

"People who don’t know the situation would say that, but I understand you, and I have seen the true nature of Justin Huxley through some things. You’ve been deceived by that senior who seems gentle on the outside, haven’t you?"

As Noah spoke, he took out two pieces of candy from his pocket, giving one to Summer Lowell.

"Thank you, President Norris," Summer Lowell accepted the candy with a beaming smile, unwrapped it, and threw it into her mouth, "Did you bring this candy from Leonia? I often used to eat one when I stayed up late drawing designs in Leonia. This candy has just the right level of sweetness, and a single piece can relieve all my troubles and stress."

"Summer Lowell, compared to here, do you want to return to Leonia more?"

Noah observed the discomfort on Summer Lowell’s face and stated his true purpose for coming today, "Maxim Sinclair is currently abroad. Though he swallowed up the Huxley Family, it’s hard for even a dying centipede to be crushed. After all, the Huxley Family was once on par with the Sinclair Family."

"You mean Maxim Sinclair will be trapped abroad for some time, and you want to take this chance to take me away, is that right?"

"Yes, that’s what I mean," Noah nodded heavily, "Though my family isn’t as powerful as the Sinclair Family, I can still manage to rescue you."

Being able to do it is one thing.

If she really left with Noah, it would push him to the opposite side of Maxim Sinclair.

Think of Justin Huxley’s fate!

You know that being against Maxim Sinclair... the consequences are unimaginable.

Moreover, she and Noah only ever had a superior-subordinate relationship in the past, and there’s no need for him to go to such lengths for her.

She also didn’t want to drag an innocent outsider into this because of her own problems.

"President Norris, I appreciate your goodwill," Summer Lowell said sincerely, "The matter between Maxim Sinclair and me is very complicated, and you are an outsider. I’m really sorry to drag you into this."

"As one of Stellart’s partners, I am not an outsider, nor am I innocent," Noah straightened his expression, and there was a hint of apology on his face, "Back then, the internal power struggle at Stellart implicated you as a newcomer, forcing you to do something disgraceful, and led you to Max Sinclair’s side in this messy bond."

As Noah spoke, he stood up and bowed most solemnly to Summer Lowell, "As a partner with real power and a voice at Stellart Company, I apologize to you. We did not manage the company well, leading to you being trapped with Maxim Sinclair in the Sinclair Family."

Tears welled up in Summer Lowell’s eyes, "It’s all in the past, and anyway, it wasn’t your fault, President Norris, you don’t need to apologize to me. I believe if you had been in the company back then, you wouldn’t have made me do that."

"No need to absolve me of responsibility, in a position of duty, one must fulfill their role." Noah waved his hand, "I came to find you mainly to talk about helping you leave. Summer Lowell, tell me honestly, do you not want to go?"

Wanting to leave, of course, she wanted to leave.

The relationship between her and Maxim Sinclair is extremely bizarre now, and she can’t stand it.

But with so many entangled issues, Summer Lowell can’t figure out how she really feels about Maxim Sinclair.

In this situation, separating is the best solution.

Or it might allow her to calmly think things through!

But clearly, Maxim Sinclair doesn’t think so.

He doesn’t agree, so wanting to leave is difficult.

"It’s still the same thing; I appreciate your goodwill, President Norris. But there’s no need, I am just fine as I am. You know, there are so many people in Stellarion waiting for the position of Mrs. Sinclair."
