Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 202: Allison, you still remember me? Devin said, a hint of disbelief lacing his voice.

With his short and chubby build, people had taken to calling him Shorty, a nickname that stuck to him like a shadow.

When he first stepped into the parking lot of the grand building, even the security guards shot him skeptical glances, as if he were a mirage in a desert of luxury.

Inside, he simmered, daydreaming of the moment when he would flip the script and put those who had dismissed him in their place.

So, when he spotted Allison making her way over, he wasted no time closing the distance between them.

Weve known each other for years! Devins eyes roamed over Allisons high-end attire and designer bag, envy twisting in his gut.

Just as Melany had said, Allison had indeed climbed the ladder of success and turned into a vision of beauty.

His smile turned earnest as he greeted her.
