The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 1287:

When Laney entered, Merrick looked up and greeted her cheerfully, “Laney, come here. I have something to tell you.”

Laney smiled politely and poured him a glass of water. Merrick leaned forward and said, “Bring it closer.”

As Merrick continued focusing on the game, Laney extended the glass toward him. Just as it was about to reach his lips, the glass was suddenly yanked away. Merrick looked up in surprise at Cliff, who had appeared without warning.

Cliff stepped in, taking Laney’s place and offering the glass to Merrick.

“Here, open up,” he said.

Merrick paused, momentarily taken aback.

“Thanks, but I just lost my thirst.”

It was clear that Cliff wasn’t too keen on Merrick’s presence. He found him increasingly annoying.
