His Real Wedded Bride

Chapter 1289 What A Vicious Woman

"Right. When I used to visit the Lu family, I witnessed that woman treat Melissa badly and not paying

her mother-in-law her due respect."

"Why didn't Charles divorce that evil woman?" exclaimed Cassie. Realizing the volume of her voice

was too loud, she lowered it and continued, "I'm sorry for being overly excited. Please keep this

conversation we've had today just between us."

"No worries. She's done so many terrible things that even if this gets out, she deserves it," said Leila

disdainfully. "Charles was trying to divorce her, but she clung onto him like a parasite. She was lucky

enough to give birth to two of his children. It was for their sake that Charles didn't go through with the

divorce."

"In my opinion, a horrible woman like her doesn't deserve to be a mother," Cassie added to back her

up.

"Exactly!" said Leila. Her face darkened as she thought about her own condition. "She's just a lucky

dog. One day, I'll make her regret it,"

she added viciously, her face contorting into a cruel frown. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.

Cassie instinctively stepped away from Leila and hurriedly cleared away the tools. "The examination is

over; you've recovered well. I'll have to check on the other room. See you later."

"All right." Leila smiled at Cassie and said, "Visit me whenever you can. I'm very bored."

"Okay, I will. Now have a good rest."

After leaving Leila's room, Cassie heaved a huge sigh of relief.

What a vicious woman! Even Cassie, an outsider, sensed how dangerous she was.

Before entering the room, Cassie had nearly heard the entire story already. She was wise enough to

have recorded Leila's phone conversation outside the door. It was solid proof.

Cassie wanted to know more about it, so she went inside to talk to her and listen to her side of the

story. After their conversation, Cassie was amazed by Leila's viciousness and was sure that Leila

herself was the evil one in the story.

She couldn't wait to forward the news to Nick, since she had finished her mission exceptionally. With

the recording, it would be easy for Nick to turn on Leila.

However, she still had several patients to check on, so she would have to wait until after work.

Leila's vicious face emerged in her mind again; she shuddered and quickly walked to her office.

When she finally finished work, Cassie called Nick. However, as she was about to tell him the news, a

colleague came to talk to her.

"I'll find you after work. I need to go now, but I'll see you soon," Cassie uttered hurriedly, ending the

phone call.

The colleague had come to invite her to karaoke to celebrate her birthday.

The two colleagues were close and she had even given Cassie birthday presents in the past. The offer

was too hard to refuse, so she accepted the offer. As for Nick, she could meet him when the party was

over.

Meanwhile, at the Red Leaves Club, Alan continued to wait for Holley and was becoming more and

more impatient. When she finally arrived, he said enthusiastically, "Miss Ye, it's been a long time since

we last saw each other. You're a hard woman to meet with. How have you been?" Alan reached out his

hand to initiate a hand shake.

"I'm good. Busy, indeed. Anyway, I'm glad to see you today."

Before letting go of Holley's hand, Alan subtly ran his fingers across her palm.

Holley noticed this and felt disgusted.

"Mr. Zhao, you said that you were going to tell me a secret. What is it?" asked Holley, a little annoyed.

"There's no rush. Let's eat and drink first. Then we'll talk about it," said Alan, grabbing her waist and

leading her to her seat.

Holley had no choice but to suppress her anger in order to eventually hear Alan's secret about Rachel.

Their meal together was pure torture. Alan had coaxed her into having a few drinks and kept putting his

nasty hands on various parts of her body.

After some time had passed, Alan leaned in closer to her, his hand caressing in-between her thighs,

like a cold snake. Holley was extremely disgusted and had the sudden urge to run away.

"Miss Ye, you look more beautiful every time I see you. My heart almost melts at the sight of you," said

Alan, smiling at her lasciviously. She could practically see the hormones bursting out of his eyes.

"That's very kind of you to say, Mr. Zhao. Thank you." Holley wriggled in her chair to get rid of his dirty

hand.

Alan, as sly as a fox, saw through this and became even bolder. While he whispered dirty jokes into her

ear, he reached underneath her shirt and ran his hand over her breasts and back.

Their close proximity made Holley feel extremely unsettled.

This old bastard! Holley cursed him in her mind. She desperately wanted to push him away, curse him

right to his face and escape this suffocating room. There was not a single second in which she wanted

to stay.

However, she had no choice but to face Alan, fake smile and all.

Having had multiple glasses of wine, Holley started to feel nauseous.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry. I'm not feeling well; I need to go to the bathroom. Excuse me." Seeing that Holley's

face had turned pale, Alan waved his hand to set her free.

As Holley left the table, she exhaled deeply and slowly made her way to the bathroom. When she

arrived and saw her flushed cheeks in the bathroom mirror, Holley splashed water onto her face to cool

down. She stood by the sink for quite some time trying to suppress her nausea.

Taking a few deep breaths, she left the bathroom and began to make her way back to Alan. She

walked slowly in order to delay facing Alan again. What a despicable man!

As Holley approached their table, she quickly put a happy look on her face.

"Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry for keeping you waiting," she said cheerfully and they resumed eating.

After they had finished their meal, Holley tried mentioning Rachel again and, this time, Alan told her the

secret.

"Rachel asked me to buy your shares and then transfer them to her, so that she could buy Tarsan

Corporation back. Now you know. Are you surprised?"
