Right after Clyde's words hit the air, the office fell into an eerie silence.
Jade slammed her hands on the desk, standing up with a fierce look. "You're siding with your mistress over your wife now? Hitting below the belt, aren't you?"
Looking like a deer caught in headlights, Kayla pressed herself into Clyde's embrace.
And there I was, watching them, thinking how much they seemed to love each other. Out of all Clyde's mistresses, Kayla seemed to be the favorite. Kayla's earlier words echoed in my mind, saying the one unloved was the real mistress. I couldn't help but laugh out loud.

I waved her off, wiping away the tears that had started from my laughter. "I'm fine. $200,000, huh? Sounds good to me."
I pulled out my phone, showing the PayPal account. "Let's make it happen."
