Chapter 1301
She scurried to hide behind Zoey’s back, wondering how her simple rant about the blind guy had set these people
off like firecrackers on the Fourth of July, everyone hollering to take a swing at her
She desperately tugged at Zoey’s sleeve
“Zoey, please, talk some sense into them.”
But Zoey stayed silent.
lan simply waved his hand, signaling his bodyguards to escort her out
By the time she got home and heard about her man’s trouble, she wouldn’t be so brazen
Belinda knew she was outmatched and slunk away, defeated
Back at her apartment, she was furing
Damn it, who did those people think they were to treat her like that?
Seething she dialed her husband’s number, seeking comfort, but before she could connect, her phone rang. It was
a call from the school. They said her husband had been picked up by the cops
The caller didn’t go into details, but it was enough to stun Belinda.
She stared in disbelief, hoping she’d misheard.
“The cops must have the wrong guy My husband hasn’t done anything! He’s been straight as an arrow for the past
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcouple of years. No, I need to get to the station
But the person on the other end didn’t care for her rambling.
Belinda rushed to the police station in a taxi, only to find she couldn’t even get a glimpse of her man.
Her face went pale. Maja’s image flashing through her mind.
Maja had just threatened to lock her husband up, and now, as if on cue, he was behind bars. If northat witch, then
who?
Belinda was livid, and she stormed off to confront Maja at the office, but as she arrived at the building, realization
struck her.
A casual word from that woman could send her man to jail.
What would happen to her if she kept provoking Maja?
The last trace of color drained from her face. She quickly dialed Zoey’s number
Zoey hadn’t blocked her yet but clearly didn’t want to answer her calls
Belinda was beside herself with frustration. In the past. Zoey had always been there for her, as if answering her call
was like popping a magic pill. And now, to be ignored?
Fuming she considered charging up to the executive floor
But the path was lined with bodyguards, and after her recent scene, there was no way they’d let her pass. She was
blacklisted for good.
Belinda stamped her foot in anger, helpless, forced to sit in the lobby and wait, vowing to confront Zoey
But the wait stretched out until 2 a m
She was dizzy with hunger when she finally saw Zoey descend from the executive elevator, her frown deepening at
the sight of Belinda.
After hours of waiting, hungry, thirsty, and furious, Belinda couldn’t hold back
“You wretch! How dare you make me wait this long?”
She was accustomed to being tough in Zoey’s presence, hands on hips, exuding superiority.
Zoey nearly rushed to appease her, but recalling Maja’s words from earlier that day, she simply lowered her head
and headed for the exit.
“Zoey! Oh, I see how it is, pretending you can’t see me now? Let everyone witness this. I raise my daughter all by
myself, and now she won’t even acknowledge me.”
Zoey shrugged off her grip and walked briskly outside
Belinda, caught off guard by Zoey’s defiance, nearly collapsed onto the floor
Zoey quickly made her way to the curb where a sleek car awaited her
It wasn’t her night to be on call, and it was already past 2 am. What was this man doing here now?
Without overthinking, she remembered her resolution to transfer her affections to this man and slid into the car
Belinda, chasing after her only caught a glimpse of Zoey climbing into the luxurious car
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe hesitated, then cursed under her breath as she approached, but the car took off, leaving her in a cloud of
exhaust
Belinda was livid and overwhelmed her husband still in jail, clueless about her next move.
Meanwhile, inside the departing car, Zoey sat quietly, gazing out the window
The man had a new silver ring on his index finger tonight. He didn’t speak, his other hand slowly twisting the ring a
somber mood enveloping him
Zoey took a moment to ensure she hadn’t crossed him, then reached out and grasped his hand
He froze, surprised by her forwardness, his eyebrows arching Then his gaze swept over her appraising her like a
piece of merchandise
Zoey knew her place in his heart. She was nothing more than a shameless woman Perhaps because she
understood this from the start, she was unfazed by his scrutinizing
gaze.
Taking a deep breath, she boldly sat on his lap
His ring adorned hand instinctively wrapped around her waist
Tall and broad–shouldered, his embrace made her seem delicate
“Are you in a rush?” he asked, a hint of amusement in his voice
