Forbidden Passion

Chapter 510 Phoebe Ran Off with Another Man

After seeing Vanessa off, Phoebe sat on the couch, holding Ollie, lost in thought. She couldn't figure out why Theodore had sent Vanessa to pick up his clothes. 'Is he just trying to show off?' she wondered.

The more she thought about it, the angrier she got. She lifted Ollie's paw and murmured, "Ollie, Theodore is such a jerk."

Ollie meowed.

Suddenly, her phone buzzed. She answered it, and Cindy's voice came through, loud and clear from a bar. "Phoebe, want to come out for a drink?" "I have a bad cold," Phoebe replied.

"What? I can't hear you. I'll send you the location. Come quick, I'm waiting." Cindy hung up before Phoebe could respond.

Phoebe looked at the location Cindy sent. Feeling frustrated, she decided to go out for a drink.

Phoebe usually played by the rules. The wildest thing she'd ever done was a one-night stand with Theodore, which had turned her life upside down. Now, she was stuck in a marriage she wanted to leave but couldn't, torn between staying and going.

It was a constant struggle.

Phoebe took a cab to the bar. The noise hit her as soon as she walked in. She finally spotted Cindy, sitting in a prominent spot at the bar. Two sketchy guys were hovering around Cindy.

When Phoebe approached, they whistled. "Hey, Cindy, is this your friend? She's gorgeous, just my type."

Cindy, clearly drunk, reached out to Phoebe. "Phoebe, come here. You two, beat it."

The guys left.
