# Chapter 185: A Dinner of Hidden Daggers
Hello everyone, it's me again! How are you all doing? Today I will continue to walk with you and review Chapter 185 of "REMARRIED AFTER I SECRETLY DIVORCED THE CEO". This chapter takes us to a tense dinner that was supposed to be about business but quickly turns into a battlefield of secrets, pride, and unspoken truths. Keith Sinclair, the enigmatic CEO, is present, and so is Autumn—and the sparks fly, but not the romantic kind. Let’s dive in and see how the evening unfolds with all its carefully laid traps and unexpected revelations.

They hadn’t held much hope for this dinner from the start. After all, the Sinclair Group’s doors weren’t ones just anyone could walk through. The family practically controlled half of Northhaven’s economy and was wealthy enough to rival nations. The heir showing up was already a surprise, and before coming, they’d spent a long time planning, settling on what they thought was the perfect proposal. What they hadn’t planned for was Autumn showing up, looking far too close to Keith for comfort. The sight sparked an uneasy feeling in his gut—a cold knot of suspicion and irritation that would only tighten as the evening progressed.
Keith gave a slight nod in acknowledgment, first pulling out a chair for Autumn before sitting beside her. He ladled a bowl of soup and set it in front of her. “Have some soup to start.” His voice was calm, almost detached, but the gesture spoke volumes. Autumn picked up a spoon and quietly began sipping, her eyes downcast, pretending not to notice the daggers being thrown in her direction.
Watching Keith’s thoughtfulness toward her, Jasmine’s jaw clenched so tight she thought her teeth might crack. This was supposed to be her chance to meet him. Why should Autumn get to swoop in first? She was just a discarded woman, yet she dared to flirt her way around. How shameless. Her blood boiled, and she was about to stand and warn Keith about Autumn’s character when Luna caught her arm, her grip firm and insistent.
“Jasmine, we’re here to discuss business. Don’t be reckless. If you ruin the deal, I won’t be able to explain it to my brother,” Luna hissed under her breath. She didn’t care for Autumn’s pretentious act either, but with Keith there, who would dare offend him? For now, she chose to hold her tongue—sometimes patience was the smarter play. She’d wait and see.
That was when Julian finally spoke, his voice smooth and calculated. “Mr. Sinclair, I heard your company’s preparing a new project. I wonder if you’d be willing to give us a chance to collaborate.”
Keith lifted his gaze, giving Julian a brief glance before effortlessly steering the conversation elsewhere. “Mr. Carter, what’s your relationship with Miss Lewis?”
That question again. Ever since the two of them had appeared at an event together, people had been asking it nonstop. Wasn’t it obvious enough by now? Or had Autumn said something to him, prompting him to bring it up on purpose? Their carefully laid plan had been thrown off the moment Autumn walked in. Was this woman here just to mess with them? Hector grumbled under his breath, but forced a light laugh. “Mr. Sinclair, they’re obviously a couple.” He hadn’t expected Keith to ask such an obvious question, and not a single word about the business deal. It was deliberate, no doubt, yet done so cleanly that no one could call him out on it, even if it left them squirming like a cat on a hot tin roof.
“Is that so?” Keith’s fingers tapped the table in a slow, rhythmic pattern. “Then how is it I’ve heard Mr. Carter’s been married for some time now? Parading another woman around while still married. Have you considered how the wife might feel?”
At that, Autumn lifted her gaze to him and couldn’t help silently giving him a thumbs-up. She had to admit that Keith might be a man of few words, but when he decided to put someone in their place, he did it with brutal precision. The room seemed to hold its breath. Ryan and Grant, knowing the truth, both shifted uncomfortably at Keith’s remark, sneaking glances at Julian. Julian, however, sat there without a flicker of emotion, his lips pressed into a thin line, offering no response. It had to be said—his composure was something else. Even with the truth laid bare, he remained as unshaken as stone.
The dinner had turned into a minefield, and every word was a step that could trigger an explosion. Keith had thrown down the gauntlet, and now everyone waited to see what Julian would do next—or if he would do anything at all.

**Reader’s Impressions & Star Rating:**
This chapter is a masterclass in tension and subtext. Keith’s quiet dominance is both chilling and exhilarating, and Autumn’s silent thumbs-up is a perfect moment of dark comedy amidst the drama. I love how Keith dismantles Julian’s facade without raising his voice. The psychological battle is fierce, and I’m left wanting more. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Rating: 4.8 / 5 Stars
**Next Chapter Prediction:**
I predict Julian will finally drop his mask and either storm out or retaliate with a devastating counterattack. Meanwhile, Jasmine and Luna are bound to scheme behind the scenes, and Autumn might find herself caught in the crossfire. Something tells me Keith isn’t done exposing secrets—and this dinner is far from over.
