Chapter 30 The Mistress’s Provocation

The message read, 1 just wanted to show you how amazing he is.”

Those few words sparked my wild imagination. I knew what the other party meant by

saying Matthew was amazing. I was outraged and threw my phone aside, heavily panting

to contain my impending scream.

I knew the person was taunting me. I clenched my teeth so hard they made a grinding

sound. Then I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths, After a while, I picked up my

phone, grabbed my bag, and stormed off.

I could no longer hold back my grievances when I saw Ivanna. I threw myself into her arms

and wailed. I couldn’t understand why I felt so shaken even after enduring torment.

When I showed Ivanna the photos, she roared, kicked, and smashed things around. I

guessed it was her

way of helping me relleve my frustrations. “That bastard’s shameless! Disgraceful

degenerate! How dare

he?”

Once we finally calmed down, I looked at Ivanna and said, “I won’t fall for her

provocations. She’s the

wrong one, and I need to show her that her tactics are futile. If that woman’s got the guts,

“You’re right, damn it! Are mistresses these days so daring? How can they use their

shamelessness as an

asset?” Ivanna ranted.

“It seems she’s someone we know or at least an acquaintance. She must know I’ve

started working at the company again. She’s been inseparable from Matthew lately and

can’t sit still!” I stated, my intuition

overflowing.

Ivanna sat beside me, saying, “Chlo, it would be great if you could always stay this

composed. You’re right. I don’t believe we can’t handle her with our combined intelligence.

This chick doesn’t play by the

rules, either.

“It seems she’s not satisfied being in the background anymore, so how do we deal with

what’s coming?”

I agreed with Ivanna. After calming down, I pondered how to respond to that woman’s

blatant challenge.

“She’s openly provoking me. I’d let her off too easily if I didn’t do anything. Since I know

she can’t stand seeing me with Matthew, I’ll do her one better and taunt her. Il rile her

up!”

“But what if that raises Matthew’s guard?” Ivanna looked at me with concern. “What if he

teams up with

her to target you?”

“Hahaha! You know, he’s already being careful. He even went through the trouble of

making fake

has attacked me. Otherwise, why would he be so cautious?” I reasoned.

Ivanna snapped her fingers. “You’re right! What’s your plan?”

“I’ll continue showcasing our love and putting on a show with Matthew. First, it might force

her out. Second, I need to buy myself some time. We haven’t planned everything yet, so

we must seize every opportunity and maximize our time.”

Ivanna nodded continuously.

I continued, “On the other hand, you should see what Johnson’s up to. I know there’s a

secret between Matthew and him. Matthew has entrusted Johnson with a few things

recently, which could be our breakthrough. I’ll give Johnson a taste of his own medicine if I

must.”

“What do you mean?” Ivanna looked at me curiously.

“He’s got something I can use against him!” I contemplated how to use Johnson as a

pawn.

Before leaving work that evening. I returned to the company and went to Matthew’s office.

Luckily, Erica

Turner, the head of the finance department, and a client were in the office with him.

I seized the opportunity and boldly asked Matthew for fifteen thousand dollars, claiming I

transferred twenty thousand dollars to me. Sure enough, the client praised Matthew while

whenever he offered, citing various expenses the company had. However, things had

changed, and I

could no longer uphold that facade.

Moreover, I knew Matthew would use my rightful company shares to pamper his little

vixen if I didn’t take

it first.

After bidding the client goodbye, we went to the preschool, and I affectionately linked

arms with

Matthew, thinking a pair of spiteful eyes must be watching us from a dark corner. Sure

enough, the

woman hadn’t finished messing with me.

This was just the beginning, I thought.
