The Woman From Hell

Chapter 139

Grayson was pulling a long face and spoke in a deep voice, "Miss Lane, we're just giving some friendly advice. Don't go too far.”

"Am I going too far? Even though you're powerful and influential, you're both too old to be pulling tricks like this. Please don't attempt to turn everything upside down.” Anger surged in my heart, and I heard myself being rude.

"Since you're unwilling to listen to our advice, you may leave. Don't blame us for playing dirty after this." The expression on Grayson’s face changed, and he spoke in an authoritative tone.

"Fine by me." Even though he looked scary, I had become immune after dealing with Tyler and Theo for so many years. Scary men could no longer scare me.

sounded annoyed.

"Is Theo that short of money to exploit a pregnant woman's labor? Why don't you stand by my side? I'm willing to become the child's father. Even if I'm not as rich, I'll make sure you can live a comfortable life."

"Oh, by the way, where’s your father?" What Xander said reminded me of Petra. That woman was really something. She had several men swarming around her, and every one of them was rather impressive.
