After being pushed to Cecelia’s side, Remington looked at her with inquisitive eyes. She was much prettier than in the blurry photo and could be said to be beyond his imagination. No wonder Jimmy had said she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen. But no matter how beautiful she was, she was not Lilian!
“Thank you for what you did today.”
“Don’t mention it. I did not come here for you.”
Cecelia coldly turned to face him, and it was the first time she had looked at him today. Her eyes were clear and bright, making his heart s kip a beat.
He wondered what was wrong with him. Why did he have difficulty breathing and feel tizzy? Was it because of the sultry weather?
Cynthia had been observing them and felt anxious to see him béhave like this, thinking he should have asked Cecelia to stay since he had feelings for her.
They always had difficulty communicating. After the divorce, their relationship became awkward. So, there was no need to waste time talking with each other.
“If there is nothing else. I’m leaving now!”
Seeing Cecelia walk away, Remington somehow stopped her, saying, “Wait!”
“What’s wrong?”
She paused her steps and looked over.
Cynthia was excited to hear him stop Cecelia and clenched her fists in’joy!
It seemed they might get back together!
But Remington’s words made her want to knock her head against. the wall.
“Since you came here, take away the jewelry and clothes in the guest room! They are useless to me. You should not have deliberately left a suspender nightdress to give me an innuendo. It’s a childish trick.”
Remington had said so because he did not know what else to say. Cynthia was about to go crazy, thinking her brother was hopeless. Why was he so st upid? Cecelia had come all the way to help him.

punish the evil people. So, he should have invited her to dinner to express his gratitude!
“You can throw them away!”

Cecelia had never wanted to give him any innuendo. She had accidentally forgotten to pack the night dress up. After finishing speaking, she walked out of the Nelson family without looking back.
Watching her leave, Remington had complicated feelings. He somehow felt a little lost because she had become very far away from him like a star since the divorce.
“Remington!”
Cynthia suddenly patted him and said, “Why are you staring after hér? She has left! ‘Hurry up and chase after her!”
Remington glanced at her and asked, “Why should I chase after her?”
He had never chased after any woman! He was always surrounded and chased by women!
“Are you still blind? Can’t you see how good-looking Cecelia is? It is hard for you to find such a beautiful and capable wife! She has not gone far, so you still have a chance to get her back!”
“There are many beautiful women! What’s more, she’s not Lilian! Why should I chase her? I’m not insane!”
Remington had not figured out his feelings, so he did not want Cecelia to disturb him.
Suddenly, Samson ran out of the house. When pa**ing by
Remington, he said, “Remington, since you don’t chase her, I will go! Thank you for stepping aside!”
“Brat, come back!”
Seeing Samson run out of the gate in a flash, Remington felt bitter but could not speak his mind. Even though he didn’t want to get back together with Cecelia, she was his ex-wife. How could Samson chase after his cousin’s ex-wife? People would laugh at them if it spread out.
After Remington had recovered, he had gotten rid of Ronald first. Then, he fired all the se rvants in the Nelson family and replaced them with his people. In addition, he had hired more b*dyguards. They were on guard twenty-four hours a day, so no one would dare to play tricks at his home anymore.
He was sure the old fox Cados would inform his father of these

things. Great changes had taken place in the Nelson family, so he would return. Even though he was Remington’s biological father, he must be punished after making mistakes.
The next day, there was a high-level meeting at the Nelson Group’s conference center.
The CEO was sitting in a high seat with a cold face. When he silently looked around with his deep eyes, people’s hair stood on end.
All the executives looked at each other in blank dismay, not daring to speak without permission.
The executives of the important departments who had been promoted and appointed by Ronald panicked and secretly wiped their sweat. Some people’s legs were violently shaking under the table. And they all wondered how Remington would deal with them. Soon, the conference center’s door opened, and a group of people walked in. They were the former executives of the five major departments who had been fired by Ronald with excuses.
“Mr. Nelson!”
“Mr. Nelson!”
Mr. Nelson was alive and had come back to manage the company! Knowing it was him who had asked them back, they were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.
Remington stood up, banged the document in his hand onto the table, and said, “From today on, you will return to your original positions. And the company will give you salaries of three months in compensation.”
“Thank you, Mr. Nelson!”
The five former executives were grateful. When Ronald fired them, it was equivalent to kicking them out of the industry. Most companies did not dare to hire them, so it was difficult for them to find a job.
Now, Mr. Nelson had summoned them back and let them return to their former posts. They had hope in life again, so they were grateful.
The former executives had come back, so the current five executives were embarra**ed, wondering where they should go.
Someone bit the bullet and ventured, “Mr. Nelson, if you let them back, where should we go?”
“You?”

Remington coldly glanced at them. They were all Ronald’s henchmen. He had asked people to investigate them. After they had entered the company, they had not made any contribution. Instead, they had formed cliques and caused a foul atmosphere in the Nelson Group. They were useless to the company!
“You are fired! Go to the finance department to get your last salaries!
Remington showed no mercy.
“Mr. Nelson! Please give us a chance! You can transfer us to other departments!”
“Yes, Mr. Nelson! We want to contribute to the Nelson Group!”
The five people began to beg for mercy, but it was in vain. Remington never easily changed his decision.
“Get them out of here!”
Then, five people were driven out of the conference center. And the five former executives returned to their positions.
After Remington returned to the company, he did housecleaning. The power was back in his hands, and the company was back on track. Everything was under his control, but one thing still made him upset.
He summoned Fredric and asked, “What is Samson doing?”
Fredric replied, “Our people who are following him reported that he dressed up and bought a bouquet today. I guess he is going on a date.
He must have gone to chase after Cecelia!
“Ask him to work in the Nelson Group from today on!”
Remington decided to give Samson a job under his nose to prevent him from chasing her.
“Okay, I’ll notify him right away!”
When Fredric was about to go out, Remington stopped him and asked, “By the way, what is Cecelia doing now?”
“When the tutor asked for leave, she said she would go back to the University of Center City with Cecelia to celebrate its 100th anniversary and attend a reunion party today.”
Creddo thought of comething and asked “The University of Center
77%
Chapter 129 Slapping in the Face
City has sent you an invitation letter. Are you going there?”
An invitation letter?
Remington immediately found the unopened invitation letter in the
trash can.
He had never been interested in such activities before. But he suddenly decided to go and said, “Prepare the car!”
When Remington quickly picked up his coat and went out, Fredric was stunned, wondering whether he was going there to meet Miss Linsey.
Had he changed his mind?
