Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Divorce Agreement (4) Chapter 140: Chapter 140: Divorce Agreement (4) Joyce Lopez bent down and cleaned the coffee stains on the floor first, as Bryan Hawkins liked to keep things clean. Such a dirty office environment would affect his work mood, not to mention the strong smell of coffee in the air.

She was uncomfortable with the smell herself, let alone him.

“What are you doing? Instead of being a good PR Department Manager, you came here to act like Cleaning Aunt?” Bryan Hawkins saw Joyce’s actions, and instead of being touched, he cursed her.

Joyce didn’t say anything, but continued her work. After completing it, she stood up. Bryan’s words were harsh, but at least he didn’t completely reject her.

Of course, in her eyes, no matter how bad-tempered Bryan Hawkins was, he wouldn’t scare her away.

“I just like being your Cleaning Aunt.” Joyce stood up, smiled at Bryan Hawkins, and wasn’t scared at all.

“…” Bryan didn’t have the mood to listen to her joke at this moment. Sometimes Joyce would say such ‘presumptuous’ things in front of him, but he didn’t bother to argue or take them seriously.

Firstly, she was the granddaughter of his grandfather’s good friend, and secondly, Joyce was indeed a capable woman. Many times, when the Hawkins Family faced crises, Joyce’s PR crisis plans had helped them overcome the difficulties.

“What’s wrong? Don’t push people away, Brother Bryan, you know I…” Joyce tried to confess her feelings again, but she was interrupted by Bryan Hawkins before she could continue.

“Do you have other business here? If not, go to work.”

Joyce got it. Bryan Hawkins was indirectly telling her to focus on work and not to mention anything else. She didn’t understand why he accepted Matilda Ferguson as his girlfriend before, but not her?

She had a good upbringing and was a perfect match for the Hawkins Family. And yet, Bryan Hawkins didn’t like her.

They just had a few years age difference, and he always acted like a caring big brother, no, actually, more like a big uncle, as if they weren’t of the same generation but an elder-younger relationship.

Every time he talked to her, it was also in an elder’s tone. If she didn’t like him, she would have lost her temper long ago.

Besides, she never thought she was less attractive than Matilda Ferguson; she might even be twice as beautiful.

Of course, there was also Lucy Wade. However, the Lopez Family didn’t allow their girls to enter the murky Entertainment Circle. Otherwise, her path to stardom would have been much smoother than Lucy’s, and she would be more famous.

She had enough confidence.

“Of course, I have something important. This is the contract I prepared earlier for signing with Miss Wade again. Take a look. If there are no issues, I will inform Miss Wade to come and sign, and then arrange the Advertising Department to work on it.” Joyce came prepared, so she didn’t have to leave. She didn’t want to leave, either.

Bryan Hawkins took it and checked, “Okay, it looks fine.”

“Shall I proceed then?” asked Joyce happily.

“Yeah, just handle it yourself.” Bryan didn’t want to pay much attention to it.

“Alright, I’ll inform Miss Wade’s agent now. Brother Bryan, actually, if you’re in a bad mood, you can talk to me. I may not be able to share your burden, but at least I can lend a listening ear.” Joyce didn’t want to give up; she wanted to know what happened that made him so angry.

“Just focus on your own work.” Bryan Hawkins coldly rejected her. He didn’t want to talk about his matters with Carolline Ruiz to outsiders.
