Chapter 21 Stay Away From My Husband

Eloise's lips quivered as she fought back tears.

This lady is so mean! She is not as pretty as Mom and not as gentle either. She is like an angry monster!

She timidly hid behind Alistair, who protectively wrapped an arm around her shoulders. Eloise immediately felt safe again.

Daddy will protect me!

Alistair's face darkened with anger. "Rebecca, what the hell is wrong with you?"

Before Rebecca could respond, a stunningly beautiful woman with an elegant figure and exceptional poise approached them. She deliberately took Alistair's arm right before Rebecca, fixing her with an icy stare. "Excuse me," she said mockingly, "I'd appreciate it if you'd keep your distance from my husband, or I'll be forced to take less pleasant measures."

Rebecca stood frozen in shock as she watched the family of three walk away from her.

"Did I mistake someone else for Alistair? Did I confuse a man who looks like him with the real Alistair?" she questioned herself. "No, that can't be right. He is Alistair-he called me by

Chapter 21 Stay Away From My Husband name without hesitation!"

Rebecca felt her mind spinning as she stood there, completely disoriented.

How was this possible? In just one day, Alistair suddenly had a wife and child? Maybe she'd somehow slipped into a parallel universe!

Rebecca's thoughts were a jumbled mess. Feeling desperate and confused, she finally decided to call Vivienne.

Vivienne was exasperated when she saw Rebecca's name on her phone.

Hadn't we agreed to never speak to each other again? It hadn't even been that long, and now she was calling!

She reluctantly answered the call, only to hear Rebecca rambling incoherently, asking if she knew about Alistair having a wife and

children.

Vivienne was utterly stunned. She wondered if Rebecca wast having some kind of breakdown.

How could Alistair have a wife and kids when he had just divorced her? Setting aside their bitter history momentarily, she asked with genuine concern, "Rebecca, are you okay?"
