Chapter 173 Paper Tiger (2/2)

It was not until now

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

wn the pen in his hand, kneaded his temples to soothe his intense nerve.

In fact, he said that was not only for comforting Melinda. The call had saved him from endless work, and the periodical office very busy recently.

The tea that his wife made had already cooled down. Kent took a sip casually. His slightly dry voice was much better all of a sudden.

”It sounds like I am heartless,” Melinda murmured to herself. Then she realized that she could only call Kent for help. She felt very guilty for no reason.

”Aren't you?”

If someone asked Kent about it, he would immediately name Melinda as the most heartless one among the people he knew.

Thanks to the teasing of Kent, Melinda was less nervous. She sat on the bed with legs crossed and prepared to speak.

”Kent, do you still remember Emily?”

”Why did you mention her? What a bummer!” Of course, Kent wouldn't forget Emily, because Melinda's suffering had everything to do with that Emily, not to mention that she was the one once Jonas loved.

Even though she was not the one he loved for a long time.

”I was followed by someone recently. It turned out that Emily was behind that.” Melinda had removed the role played by Jonas in this matter naturally.

Hearing this, Kent's heart missed a beat. He asked with concern, ”Are you okay?”

”I am okay, Jonas... I'm just worried that she might have a plan B.” Melinda simply told him that Jonas had arranged someone to protect her, and then told him what had troubled her the whole night.

Emily was absolutely a time bomb. Although she did nothing, Melinda was too scared to sleep.

”You can't fall asleep because of this?” It had to be said that Kent really knew Melinda well. From this moment on, he figured out why she called him at late night. He was immediately irritated that she hesitated to tell him this thing.

”Yes.” Melinda felt even more embarrassed. She was a paper tiger sometimes, and she was indeed afraid of it.
