Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 33: Immanuel, with an apron tied tightly around his waist and his cooking sleeves rolled up, came out brandishing a blade like an old warrior ready for battle.

His gaze locked onto Colton, seething with fury.

Who taught you to talk like that? Some rude creature comes here and thinks he can make a scene.

Get out of here! Right now.

In his youth, Emanuel's reputation was legendary.

He once got into a fistfight with another artist over a disagreement about ceramics, in front of the media no less.

Even now, well into his sixties, that same fire continued to burn fiercely within him.

And when it came to Allison, his protective instincts flared up like a bonfire.

After all, he had convinced her to come, and now that arrogant jerk dared to cause trouble under his roof! Watch out, Emanuel, Allison said, rushing to support him, sensing the danger in his rising anger.

He wasn't a chick, and the last thing I wanted was for him to cross the line.

Don't worry, he barked.

Nobody intimidates you in my house.

You are too soft.

You should go slap him.

And if his parents were here, he would slap them too! His temper had not calmed one bit as he spoke.

Melany, realizing that she was in the presence of the legendary master potter, nervously took a few steps back.

Emanuel waved the blade to increase his panic.

Hurriedly, she took out an invitation from her bag, hoping to calm the situation.
