Chapter 76: First Day.
*Author*
Alexander had becan intesensation. The picture spread through all forms of social media, spreading
and spreading till it landed on the screen of Ethan Hawthorne.
However, where others reacted with shock and disinterest,
Ethan was furious. What the others didn’t know was that
delectable dessert was his ex-wife, Olivia's favorite. Ethan knew that Olivia had not just taken that shot, but she
had probably also joined Alexander in devouring the sweet treat.
His anger bubbled up, even his wolf couldn't contain that much rage, growling at the picture on his phone
screen. But Ethan,

knew he had to do something about this. According to him.
Olivia's ‘closeness’ with Alexander Green had been the sole cause of their divorce the previous day.
Yes, it was his fault. He couldn't believe that Olivia would cheat
him, her mate in such a manner. How reckless of her.

He wanted to tell her as such, but she wouldn't pick up his calls. So, he grabbed one of his many off his office
desk and dialed. As
expected, he picked up.
Olivia was currently sitting in a car with Alexander and Gai,
traveling to the Green group together. She was looking out the window, trying to avoid her boss's gaze when her
phone rang.
She didn’t recognize the number, and she saw it as a welcome
distraction. So, she answered.
“Hello?”
“You're a hypocrite, you know that? The ink hasn't even dried
on our divorce papers yet, and you're already throwing yourself
at Alexander.”
Olivia recognized the angry voice instantly. She yelped and
ended the call. His temporary insanity must have returned.

That was the only explanation for whatever that was.
She tried to just bury her phone in her bag and forget about the
whole thing, but from the way Gai looked at her through the
rearview mirror, and the way Alexander was eerily silent, it
was clear they heard everything.

“You're divorced?” Gai asked from the driver's seat.
Alexander rolled his eyes. “Yes, she is.”
Olivia kept her eyes fixed on the car window, staring at
anything but the two people in the vehicle with her.
Thankfully, they arrived at the company in record time. The
moment they stepped in, Alexander was swarmed by five men
in pristine suits. They grabbed his briefcase, following at a
respectable distance behind him.
Gai nudged Olivia. “Con.” She nodded and followed after
him.
He guided her through the onboarding process, pointing out the
different departments. Olivia was in awe. The building was
larger than even Hawthorne Group. But that feeling didn’t last
for long. Yve, Olivia's wolf, picked up on whispers from staff
members as Gai led her through the company.
Yes, she expected rumors to swirl around her. But she didn’t
think they’d be so blatant about it.
Olivia frowned when she heard one employee say, “That's her.

“What's she doing here?” Another one asked.
“Because they broke up, obviously. Alpha Alexander
headhunted her and brought her here.”

“But why would he do that?”
“You didn’t see the spat online?”
“What spat?”
“Get this. There was a recent online dispute between the Windsor and Hawthrone family. Alpha Alexander joined
in,
and he made it pretty clear whose side he was on.”
Olivia turned out after that. She tried to brush it off as mindless
gossip, but it did bother her that these people already had a
preconceived notion about her.
The tour ended after that, and she followed Gai into the
elevator up to the top floor of the building. They stepped out
into a large hallway, and on the right side was a large office
with glass doors.
Olivia couldn't believe it when Gai confirmed that this was
going to be her space. It made even less sense when he explained
that this used to be Alexander's office. Then why did it go to
her? And where was Alexander now?
“Right next to yours, Gai answered, pointing at an even larger
door down the hall. “He had the secretarial department moved
entirely to another floor due to the constant phone calls and
interaction. But since you'll be the head of that department, and
answer directly to him, you'll be on this floor.”
Olivia barely had tto process what he was saying when Gai pushed the glass doors open. The office was
large, not like

Olivia nodded, still looking around the well-designed space. It
seemed the office had remained untouched since Alexander
left, which would explain all the high-end devices and
furniture.
“I'll be right back,” Gai announced before rushing out of the
room.

ordinary.
Just as she was checking underneath her desk, Gai returned. She quickly rose to her feet and dusted off her skirt.
Gai gave her a skeptical look but said nothing. “So, there are
only three people on this floor. Alpha Alexander, myself and you. As you know, Alexander can be difficult to get
along with,
which means there are rules.”
Olivia nodded. She expected as much.
“You can’t walk into his office without permission. Trivial
matters must be handled swiftly and without his involvement.
Not everything needs to go through him unless it's a matter of
great importance.”
