The Divorced Billionaire Heiress Boss Chapter 2118

Just Testing the Waters

Sean only slept with Melissa because she was sent to his bed when he was drugged.

After the deed, Sean paid off Melissa’s debt and found a job for her.

There was nothing more between them.

However, to Sean’s subordinates and especially Lex, they had long thought that Sean must have liked
Melissa since he slept with her.They thought that Yvette, who liked to hook up with men before she was
married, still did not reel it in after marriage.

To them, Yvette was just another prostitute with a better background.

Yvette was nothing compared to a pure college student like Melissa.

Thus, Lex looked at Yvette lewdly, but he would not contaminate Melissa.

When Lex heard what Sean said, he was obviously shocked and looked at Sean in a panic.

"Boss, you know that’s not what I meant.How could you give Melissa to me?" Melissa stood beside
him.

Her face was pale, and she bit down on her lips so hard that they were about to bleed.She remained
silent.

Sean ignored Lex and looked straight at Melissa.

"What do you think?"



Although it was a question, Sean did not actually mean to ask for her opinion.Melissa also knew that
this was not up for discussion.She did not know how to answer, so she just kept her head down in
silence.

Tate, who was standing on the side, saw that the situation was not right and kicked the skinny Lex
behind the knee.

With a thud, the thin man knelt down.

Tate said with a smile, "This stupid donkey must’ve had too much free time recently that he has time to
think about nonsense.He only has eyes for women.Boss, why don’t you let Lex deliver the goods this
time?"

Lex looked up at Tate in surprise.

"Tate, you..." Tate glared at Lex fiercely.

Lex knelt there for a while and did not know what to say.He was also observing Sean’s expression.

Sean glanced at Lex coldly.

There was no trace of warmth in his voice as he said, "The old master hasn’t made a move yet, so I'll
let you know who will deliver the goods when the time comes."

Tate thought about it and continued this topic.

"Boss, the old master trusts you more now, but he still refuses to take you to see his higher-ups.Is it
because he’s afraid that you'll steal his credit? Or does he not trust you enough?"

Lex was spirited when he heard this and was about to speak, but Sean gave him a look.Everyone
immediately understood that look.Melissa stood there and pursed her lips.

"I’m going to cook first."

She returned to the kitchen, and the others breathed a sigh of relief.Sean looked at Lex and said in a
cold tone, "If you keep running your mouth, I won’t give you another chance and leave you to the old
master.He will naturally have his way of dealing with you."

Lex smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Boss, I know my mistake..."

Sean withdrew his gaze and raised his chin.Lex hurriedly stood up.

Only then did Sean answer Tate’s question slowly.

"Whether he’s doubtful of me or afraid that I'll steal his credit, what I want to know most is the person
behind the old master."

As long as he knew who was backing the old master, he could overthrow the old master and take his
position.Then, he could truly occupy half of the underground kingdom instead of just becoming the old
master’s puppet.

Tate pondered for a moment and said slowly, "Boss, we’ve analyzed it before.

The person behind the old master is either a high-ranking official or a wealthy businessman.But it’s
most likely a wealthy businessman who can help the old master launder money.

So, Ferguson Corporation and Stanton Corporation are the most likely candidates.Is that why you
brought Ms.Quimbey here? Are you just testing the waters?"

Tate was suddenly enlightened.



Sean raised his eyelids, but his expression did not change much.

Silence meant that he admitted to it.Lex suddenly widened his eyes.

"So that’s what it is! Boss, why didn’t you tell me sooner? I really thought you had an obsession with
Ms.Quimbey!"

Tate chuckled lightly.

"Why would the boss tell you his idea? The boss deliberately allowed Ms.Quimbey to run into the
bedroom so that she could make an emergency call just so he could test it out.That way, we can see
who’s trying to save her openly and secretly, right?"

Sean finally lifted his eyelids and glanced at Tate with some admiration in his eyes.

"If the people behind the old master are the Stantons or the Fergusons, they will definitely come to me
through the old master.When the time comes, it'll be easier to get close to them.Eric seemed to be a
law-abiding citizen on the surface, but that’s only because he cleans up so well that no one could catch
him.When I was doing business with him back then, I had to show him respect if I wanted to cooperate
with him.His power was not as simple as it seemed.As for Stanton Corporation, Grant desperately
moved toward brighter routes in order to leave his sister with a clean company.Who knows what kind of
skeletons will be in his closet? Both of them are somewhat related to Yvette and Angie.Since Angie is
dead, Yvette is our only bait."

Yvette was also the best bait.

Nicole would not let anything happen to Yvette.

The Quimbeys and the Sheldons were closely related to Ferguson Corporation, so regardless of which
aspect, they would involve Ferguson Corporation.



No matter how they looked at it, this was a very good move.

The thin Lex nodded with sudden realization.

However, he turned to look at Sean in confusion.

"Boss, if you want to test them, why don’t you just kidnap the heiress of Stanton Corporation? She’s the
President of Stanton Corporation and the ex-wife of Eric Ferguson, so no matter how I see it, I think
she’s the most suitable candidate!"

Sean’s eyes turned cold and stern.

Tate, who was on the side, looked at Lex with a meaningful smile.

"If you kidnap her today, we’ll get blown to smithereens before the old master could speak.Whoever
dares to touch that woman will die.Her husband isn’t one to be trifled with.If you don't believe me, you
can give it a try..."

As soon as he said that, Lex’s expression changed.He smiled sheepishly.

"Are you trying to get me killed? If the boss doesn’t dare to touch her, how would I have the guts?"

Tate snorted lightly, turned his head, and continued to say to Sean.

"Boss, there’s no movement from those two so far.All their attention is on Lance.We don’t know when
we'll get news from them either.I’m also afraid that the old master will find out our motives!"

Sean pondered with a gloomy face.

"He won’t find out.He knew what happened between me and Yvette because I turned to him back then
when Yvette dumped me.Now that I abduct her, the old master will only think that I’m just taking



revenge."

Lex nodded and felt it made sense.

However, Tate glanced at him meaningfully and said nothing.

Melissa finished cooking and said softly, "Dinner’s ready, Mr.Moore.Should I invite Ms.Quimbey
downstairs?"

Sean’s expression remained unchanged.His tone was cold.

"No need.She won’t die from starvation if she skips a meal."

Sean did not want Yvette to have the strength to play "Romeo and Juliet" in front of him.

He was irritated whenever Yvette mentioned Lance.

Melissa nodded.

Tate walked over and thanked her politely before he started eating.

Lex was just like a starving wolf as he ate with relish.

They did not have to abide by any rules because Sean was not picky.

Melissa just stood there and waited for Sean to sit down.
