Chapter 111 You Don’t Need to Beat Around the Bush
Anthony said coldly, “When did I bad-mouth her? I’m just telling the truth! Do you think she did all that for you? She’s just trying to ruin our relationship because her life sucks now!”
Zoe did not expect him to say such shameless words, and she scoffed in anger. “So, are you saying that she forced you to cheat on me? Did she have a knife on your neck or something?”
Anthony just stayed silent. He had always thought he could be with Zoe forever if Leanna had not caught him and Jeanette. As for Jeanette’s existence, that would not hinder him from being in a relationship with Zoe.
“Am I wrong? Zayn is now engaged to another woman, and her dreams of marrying a rich man have been crushed! That’s why she wants to drag you down into her miserable life with her. Zoe, you’re too naive. Think about this. Why would a pregnant woman be afraid of other people finding out about her pregnancy? Because she probably had an affair, and the baby is merely an illegitimate b*stard!”

His words made Zoe blow up. “What the h*ll are you saying?”
She was about to dash toward him, but Leanna pulled her back as she looked at Anthony, saying, “You don’t need to push all the blame on me. Yes, I found out about your affair, but how am I the one in the wrong when you were basically swaggering around the entire town with your mistress?”
Zoe said, “I must’ve been blind to have loved a lowlife like you for so many years! Ugh, I’m so disgusted!”
His expression turned nasty upon hearing what she said and he warned her, “Mind your words! Or you’ll have to face the consequences!”
At this time, someone from the crowd splashed a cup of coffee toward Anthony and Jeanette.
Anthony was fine as only half of his sleeve was stained with coffee, but for Jeanette, someone splashed her entire face with coffee.
“Ahhhhhh!”

Following Jeanette’s pained scream, Leanna pulled Zoe with her as they left the scene.
It was unnecessary for the two ladies to start a fight with Anthony because they would not have the upper hand if that happened.
Zoe was still furious even after they left the sales office. “How could that lowlife sprout so much nonsense? Every time I think about how I’ve dated him for five years, I feel nauseous. I think I can even puke the food I ate last week because of it.”
As she said, she turned to look at Leanna. “Nana, don’t take his nonsense to heart.”

Leanna smiled. “I won’t. Don’t worry about it.”
Zoe was about to speak when someone patted her shoulder. She turned around and saw a person with a mask and a cap standing there.
It then hit Zoe that they invited Daphne too when they went out earlier.
Daphne came over right after work. She had been waiting by the sales office for quite some time, but they were nowhere in sight, so when she heard a commotion inside the office, she went in and took a look.

was when she spotted Leanna and Zoe. Leanna suddenly realized something and asked, “Were you the one who splashed the coffee?” Daphne blinked innocently as she replied, “Yeah. I just bought it, so it’s still hot.” All of a sudden, Zoe felt that all her anger had dissipated. “Come on, let’s celebrate. Lunch is on me.” … Jonathan knocked and entered the president’s office of Pearson Group. “President Pearson, there’s a bit of a situation at our sales office in Stusford.” Aidan put his pen down and looked at him

The video was about five minutes long. However, it was noisy because there were too many people, so it was difficult to hear anything clearly.
Thanks to Zoe’s anger, though, Aidan managed to hear Anthony say the words, ‘illegitimate b*stard’.
His expression did not change much after watching the video. He returned the phone and asked, “Where’s Leanna now?”
“She went for lunch with her friend and Daphne.”
“I see she still has the time to relax. Get rid of the security footage and find out who was at the office today. Make sure that the other Pearsons don’t hear about this.”
“Got it.”
