The Tempting Ex-Wife: Gatsby's Timed Favor

Introduction: From the moment Daisy Buchanan had a stepmother, her life was plunged into darkness, with no light in sight. She struggled to grow up, losing her "father" and her younger brother... She lived her life in chaos, yearning for equality, never relaxing for a moment. Yet there was always one person following behind her, never willing to fall behind.

Chapter 1: Dreaming

In the pitch-black room, a man sat on the sofa. Before him stood a girl. She was in her early twenties, not yet graduated from college. Facing the man who, just a few hours ago, had stood in their school auditorium as a successful speaker, she showed no sign of retreat. The mans fingers rested on his chin, his cool gaze examining her as he frowned slightly and asked, "What did you just... say?"

The girls expression was somewhat indifferent as she calmly repeated, "I said, I want you to marry me."

Hearing this, the man slowly smiled. "Miss Buchanan, if I remember correctly, you havent even graduated from college yet. Just now, during my speech, you were sitting in the third row."

"Im a senior this year, and in two months, I can graduate."

Although she was still dressed as a student, her demeanor was not at all nervous or green. Even to the mans question, she was calm and rational, analyzing very seriously, "The country does not stipulate that one cannot get married during college. I have passed the legal age for marriage, of course, if Mr. Gatsby feels its controversial, I can wait until I graduate from university to marry you."

Seeing that she was not joking, Jay Gatsby gradually became serious and after a while, asked, "Why?"

"As far as I know, Miss Buchanan is the eldest daughter of the Buchanan family and is very likely to become the successor of Buchanan Enterprises. You should not be short of money, and you are quite popular among the opposite sex both in school and in society, not lacking in boyfriends. Why must you marry me?"

Daisy stood silently for a while before saying, "Because I like you."

Jay Gatsby raised his eyebrows, then listened to her continue, "No woman doesnt like capable men. Mr. Gatsby, your conditions are very good, and I am more than a match for you."

She paused for a moment, seemingly feeling that this alone was not enough leverage, so she added, "As you said, I am very likely to become the future head of Buchanan Enterprises. So, marrying me would be very beneficial to you. Our Buchanan Enterprises can cooperate more closely with your Gatsby Holdings, which would be good for both our companies."

Jay Gatsby did not reply, still examining her, seemingly moved by her words.

After a long while, he stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and said, "Go back, Im not interested in you, this smart aleck, not yet grown-up student girl."

"You think I havent grown up yet?"

The sound of fabric rubbing came from behind. Jay Gatsby turned around to see Daisy expressionless, taking off her clothes one by one.

Finally, her smooth and graceful body was presented in front of him, still calm and cold enough to make people feel cruel: "Is this enough?"

...

Accompanied by the sweet voice of the flight attendant, Daisy awoke from her sleep, recalling the events of the dream just now, she couldnt help but frown, reaching out her fingers to rub her temples.

It had been three years. Three years ago, she was still a self-righteous student girl, and Jay Gatsby was the sponsor who went to their school to give a speech.

Three years later, she is the general manager of Buchanan Enterprises, and Jay Gatsby has become her ex-husband.

Thinking of the first thing after returning to the country, she dreamed of Jay Gatsby, Daisy felt a bit displeased. She straightened up, picked up the current affairs newspaper on the seat.

The news that Buchanan Enterprises was suspected of selling substandard facial masks, causing consumers to have facial skin problems, caught her eye, and it occupied most of the newspapers space, which shows how urgent this incident is.

"Miss Buchanan, the plane will land in two minutes. We have prepared an emergency plan for you. We hope you can leave the airport first with the security personnel," the assistant next to her whispered a reminder.

Daisy looked at him in confusion, "Why should I leave first?"

"Uh..."

The young assistant knew that although the general manager of Buchanan Enterprises never put on any big ladys airs, she was very strict with work, afraid that she would be unhappy if she didnt arrange it well.

So, he explained carefully again, "I heard from the people at headquarters that this crisis has caused a lot of trouble and attracted the attention of many media. Although the news of your return has not been announced to the outside world except for the companys senior management, those reporters may have already found out your itinerary and may be waiting for an interview at the airport... For your safety, please avoid it."

"I came back this time to solve the current crisis of Buchanan Enterprises. How can I avoid it when I encounter a problem? Besides..."

The corner of her lips curled up with a bit of a cold smile, she said meaningfully, "If we dont let them report, how can we let everyone know that Daisy Buchanan is back..."

"Miss Buchanan, is your return this time related to the recent scandal of Buchanan Enterprises?"

"Miss Buchanan, what is your view on the facial mask incident of Buchanan Enterprises, and what measures does Buchanan Enterprises have to deal with it?"

As soon as Daisy walked out of the airport, she saw a group of people rushing towards her. The staff around quickly blocked those people with their bodies, not letting them get too close to Daisy.

However, in order to interview useful news, those reporters were still scrambling, almost shoving the microphone into Daisys face.

"Everyone, I just came back from the United States..."

Daisys voice was not loud, but it was very effective. The noisy and chaotic interview immediately quieted down, and the reporters stood opposite, listening to her next words.

"Regarding this incident, although I have seen the information before, there are still many detailed issues that need to be verified back at the company, so I am sorry that I cannot make a hasty response now. However, I can promise on behalf of Buchanan that if this incident is really related to us, we will bear the responsibilities we should bear, because our company has caused panic to the public, and we are very sorry, and we will resolve this matter as soon as possible to give the victims and the public an account."

Her response was impeccable, and the reporters repeated questioning was blocked by her calmly and unobtrusively, and there was no way, they could only turn to ask other aspects.

"Miss Buchanan, is your divorce from Mr. Gatsby two years ago related to the inheritance of Buchanan Enterprises?"

Faced with the reporters inquiry, Daisy made an incredible expression and asked, "How could it be possible?"

She smiled bitterly, combed the hair by her temples, seemingly inadvertently, but the action gave people the feeling that this strong woman in front of her, in terms of emotions, was still a naive girl.

"At that time, I was young and didnt know how to think when I encountered things, and I made decisions based on my feelings. I was a bit impulsive, and then I found out... our personalities were not very suitable..."
