Chapter 145

Chapter 145 A Scheming Jerk Ava leaned into my arms, clutching me tightly.

She looked at him, forgetting to continue eating.

"Chlo, do not be so hostile to me! I never meant to hurt you.

Isn't it wonderful, the three of us together?" He shamelessly declared, "Have you noticed Ava's change? She's not as chatty as she used to be." He looked as if he were questioning me, as if it were all my fault. "Can't you compromise for the sake of our child? ATL Empire has changed hands.

Your support is gone.

Do you still want to persist?" Triumph filled his eyes.

My heart churned.

I clenched the small spoon in my hand and looked at him.

"What then?" Ava's little hand tightened around mine.

She was afraid that we'd start arguing.

I let go of the spoon, embracing her tightly.

I reached out to stroke her head.

"Mommy's here!" "Let's go back to how things were.

You can live in the house, and I won't take your money.

But you must send your parents back, and I expect you to be home on time.

I want to be with you and our child!" His eyes greedily assessed me.

"You can forget about that!" I gritted my teeth, trying to keep my tone calm. Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ FɪndNovᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

If it weren't for Ava, I would have given him a piece of my mind.

Looking at me as if he adored me, he shook his head.

"Oh, Chlo.

Why can't I let g you? You're too stubborn.

But you've changed, and the world has changed too.

"Don't be so headstrong.

Tanum Corporation has worn you out.

I gave you a chance, but you can't even handle a few suppliers.

Do you still need to put up a fight?" "Do you think a few suppliers can intimidate me?" I countered.

He didn't deny it and just smiled.

"Chlo, do you really think Atlas can back you up? You're too naive.

He's just a little assistant.

What can he possibly do? Yet you're still hoping he'll come back and support you?" Fear gripped my heart.

I knew the odds were slim.

"So what?" "Be realistic! You've had your fun.

I've been soft on you, haven't I? I can tolerate whatever your relationship is with him, even if he slept with you.

We'd be even.

You have Atlas, and I have Melanie.

Isn't that fair? "You're shameless!" No word fitted him better.

"Let us just set this aside.

Feel free to run off with anyone if you want to be stubborn.

But you're not taking "Is it yummy?" I asked her in a gentle tone.

She looked at me with big, innocent eyes, assessing my expression.

Then she licked her upper lip.

"Our daughter hasn't finished eating.

She only had a spoonful of ice cream.

Let me feed her some more!" I clenched my fist and wished I could scream expletives at him.

My eyes blazed like fire.

In a low, seething voice, I asked, "Do you have any shame left?" Suddenly, Matthew laughed, his eyes and brows crinkling with a peculiar playfulness.

However, I knew there was a trace of scheming in that smile.

It was this very smile that sent a chill down my spine.
