When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him

Chapter 1851 The Instigator

Upon arriving at the office, Zeke immediately started making calls to the manager of Jamieson Group.

"Sir, haven't we always had a good working relationship?" Zeke asked, confusion evident in his voice. "Why would you suddenly want to end our partnership?"

The manager on the other end didn't mince words with him. "Don't you know who you have offended?"

Zeke was genuinely clueless. "Well... I didn't offend anyone, did I?”

He was acting submissively, hardly resembling the attitude he had at home.

The manager had never seen such a clueless person before. "You can't possibly not know our newly appointed CEO, can you?"

Zeke genuinely had no idea.

He spent his days indulging in frivolous pleasures, with no regard for his responsibilities at the company. All he did was bask in enjoyment.

Once upon a time, when his father, Finn Turner, was alive, everything was perfectly taken care of. He didn't need to concern himself with the happenings of the business world. However, when Finn passed away the previous year, all the responsibilities fell squarely on Zeke's shoulders.

Zeke immediately asked his secretary about the matter.

The secretary informed him that the CEO of Jamieson Group at that time was Cecilia, Queenie's daughter.noveldrama

"Cecilia..."

Zeke muttered the name and thought it was familiar, yet he struggled to recall who it was for a moment.

It was his secretary who reminded him, "Cecilia is Meredith's best friend."

Those words left Zeke completely stunned.

He wanted to say something more to Jamieson Group's manager, but the line had already been disconnected on the other end.

The manager of Jamieson Group also didn't want to have any association with Zeke.

Zeke stared at the disconnected call before slumping into his office chair.

"How could I have forgotten about this?" Zeke rapped his own head. "Meredith turns out to be the best friend of the CEO of the Jamieson Group No wonder Jamieson Group has suddenly canceled our_O collaboration. No wonder they're discouraging other companies from partnering with us."

The secretary nodded. “Mr. Turner, it seems you need to go find Mrs. Turner." Before, the secretary used to address Meredith by her first name. At that moment, however, she had changed the form of address. It was incredibly pragmatic.

Zeke, of course, understood the implications. He picked up his phone once again and dialed Meredith's number.

However, the response he received was nothing but the cold, automated voice of customer service. "I'm sorry, but the number you have dialed is currently unavailable..."

"That b*tch has actually blocked me!" Zeke clenched his fists before turning to his secretary. "Let me borrow your phone for a moment."

"All right."

The secretary handed over the phone.

Zeke used his secretary's phone to make another call, and sure enough, it went through quickly.

On the other end, Meredith answered the phone. "Hello? Who is this?" she asked puzzledly.

"Meredith, it's me." Zeke's voice was gentle, a stark contrast to his earlier harsh demeanor.

Before she received the phone call, Meredith had already gotten a message from Yuliana. She learned that the collaboration between the Turner and Jamieson families had been called off and that the Jamieson family had targeted the Turner family.

However, she hadn't expected Zeke to call her so quickly.

"Oh? My ex-husband? What a surprise! Why have you called me?" she asked, a smirk playing on her lips. She felt a peculiar sense of satisfaction, her mind already plotting how to humiliate Zeke.

Zeke felt a certain discomfort in his heart when Meredith called him her ex- husband.

"Meredith, I'm sorry. I was wrong before. After we parted ways, I was filled with regret. Could you give me another chance? Let's start over, okay?" Zeke tried his best to sound sincere.

Start over? Meredith couldn't be bothered to beat around the bush with him, so she directly said, "This is about the Jamieson family cancelling their partnership with you, isn't it?"

Zeke was taken aback, and he unconsciously clenched his fists. I knew it! Meredith is the instigator!

"Meredith, we were married after all. Do you really need to see me fall into the depths of despair?" he asked.
