Yolanda murmured, “Vivian is your business partner.” Her lashes were lowered, her tone steady and matter- of–fact, like she was simply stating the truth.

“But you’re my wife,” Charles replied firmly.

“Charles, I know the company is always your top priority. I don’t want to put you in a tough spot,” Yolanda said, her voice barely above a whisper.

Charles paused, then pulled her into his arms, saying nothing.

Yolanda caught a faint whiff of another woman’s perfume lingering on Charles. She didn’t say a word.

Instead, tears slid silently down her cheeks, soaking through the fabric of his shoulder.

Charles gently cleaned up her wounds, then reached out to softly ruffle her hair. “Get some rest,” he said.

“Okay,” Yolanda replied quietly.

She lay down slowly, her lashes still wet with tears.

Charles watched her for a few seconds before finally leaving the room.

‘Whatever he’s up to, doesn’t matter to me,‘ Yolanda thought, turning over and falling asleep without another word.

When Vivian got Charles’s message that he was coming over, she could barely hide her delight–her eyes sparkled with surprise and anticipation.

It was already past eleven at night, but she quickly did her makeup and sat waiting for him in the living room, nerves buzzing in her chest.

Charles arrived in no time. The moment she opened the door, Vivian was so excited she almost leapt into his

arms.

“I knew it! You still care about me,” she blurted out, hope shining in her voice.

But in the next second, Charles shoved her aside and brushed off his suit jacket, as if trying to wipe away something unpleasant.

Vivian’s face instantly turned pale, “Charles, what’s that supposed to mean?” she demanded, her voice shaking.

“Where’s Yolanda’s earring?” Charles asked, his tone cold and unwavering.

Vivian couldn’t believe her ears. ‘Is Charles actually backing Yolanda up?‘ she thought, totally stunned.

She let out a scoff, her scalp prickling with anger. “Do you really think Yolanda is any better? I told her right to her face–I slept with her husband–and she just pretended like nothing ever happened! Charles, you never used to take her side! You must’ve totally fallen for her tricks.”
