The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon

Chapter 378 Unreasonable Rules

Abigail climbed to the second floor and entered a room. Just as she wanted to start searching, a person suddenly leaped out of the cabinet beside the door.

Before she could react, she was forcefully pushed aside.

The bulky man grabbed her hand and tried to snatch the key tied to her wrist.

Swiftly, she pushed the person away, but he quickly closed the distance again.

She didn’t remember who this actor was, but he was strong and seemed to lack any sense of personal boundaries.

When she turned around, he actually embraced her from behind.

Disgusted, Abigail shouted, “Stop!”

Sorry, Alana. This is how the game is played.” The man paid no attention to her protest, reaching for the key tied to her wrist.

Since her struggle was to no avail, she suddenly stopped and turned to face the man. “If you don’t want your reputation to be tarnished in the edited video, don’t get so close. Even in a game, there’s no need to play like this.”

The man smiled and forcefully grabbed the key from her hand.

As he retreated, he swung the key in his hand and said, “Miss Alana, didn’t you read the game rules? The rules say that in this game, any means are allowed to provide excitement for the audience.

With that, he was going to leave, but when he turned around, the door swung open. He collided with the door, causing his nose to start bleeding. He dropped the key, crouched down, and covered his nose in pain.

Abigail seized the opportunity to grab the key. When she saw a student at the door, she immediately grabbed her and started running.
