Chapter 60 Abandoned

Stanley drove away without asking his driver to tag along. He was making a beeline for Melinda. Dammit. Why did she meet up with him? She must stay away from him. He clenched the steering wheel, his eyes glinting dangerously.

Melinda was still having her tea, immersed in her thoughts. The tea was paid for, so she would only leave after she finished it. Frugality was a part of Sunnyvale’s creed, after all. She didn’t even realize Stanley had parked his car and was approaching her. Hmm, he took the kids in, so why didn’t he take Mervin in? Because he couldn’t accept his mistake? Is that why they became enemies? When Stanley sat down, Melinda could sense the tension in the air. When she finally snapped back to her senses and noticed his presence, she stared at him

“I have the freedom to see whom I want.” Melinda didn’t like the attitude. “Wait, your men are tailing me?! What makes you think you have the right?” She bristled.

“Answer me. Why did you see Mervin?” He looked at her, his gaze as sharp as a sword.

Their eyes met, and the tension kept on building up. Melinda was furious, but she didn’t want to argue with him, so she got up and left.

Then, he pulled her into his embrace.
