Chapter 89 fight with
Hass,
ny vysaddict helps bout think. Boss''s ex golfierad is The Palmer''s ughter. If Roseanne hadn''t left the country back then after that Theo might''ve ended up as his father-inw. But none? His ex is his k, and his wife is on her way out. Who''s he gonna pick?

After all, back when the Palmer family was fighting over their inheritance, Theo had plenty of connections. If he hadn''t been such a useless idiot, he walifa''t have lost Palmer Group to his ysninger brother. And now that Theo was hack, the strongest connection he had left was probably Julian.
n thought, "At the end of the day, Boss is practically Ther''s future son-inw. Even if Boss never seemed all that into Roseanne, she was still the official gullriend he admitted

Her attempt to smooth things over only made Julian''s expression even worse.
He muttered in his mind bitterly, Right. How could I forget? That woman was all too eager to leave when we divorced. She even made sure to disappear without a trace!
ra''s careful voice came through the phone again. "Sir, would you like me to prepare some of Mrs. Calloway''s daily essentials? That way, if shees back, she''ll have everything she needs;
