“Michael, don’t go too far!” Fredrick stepped forward and grabbed Michael’s collar.

I was afraid that they might fight, so I stopped Fredrick.

“Heartthrob, thank you. You should go now. We’ll talk another day.”

Fredrick was worried I might be put in a difficult spot. He angrily glanced at Michael.

“Stephie, you should handle the matter we discussed earlier as soon as you can. It’s better to stay away from people like him as much as possible.”

I nodded. “Okay, Heartthrob.”

After Fredrick drove away, I stood still and didn’t turn around.

“Stephanie, have I been treating you too well recently?” Michael approached me and grabbed my wrist. Then, he pulled me to the shed in the backyard.

I looked at him in fear, not knowing what he was planning.

“I’ll tell Aunty Lois that our marriage contract is over. I’ll leave Huma.” Afraid, I took a few steps back, nervously looking at Michael.
