Chapter 218 The Mysterious Man

"Ah!" Hester sat up with a shout, her body bathed in sweat. She looked around the room in a hurry and found that what had happened just now was just a dream and then collapsed on the bed in exhaustion.

When she raised her hand, the invitation was still held tightly in her hand. She threw it to the ground as if she was frightened. She sat on the bed with her arms around her knees, falling in a daze.

Full of exhaustion, Terence returned to the villa and walked to the door of Hester's room. 'She must have read today's news as it was so full.'

He held the handrail tightly and didn't know how to face her. Terence took a deep breath and opened the door. The room was dark, except for the bedside lamp on. She huddled up by the bed.

Seeing this scene, he stopped and lost his courage suddenly. After hesitating for a while, he decided to rush forward. Noticing the invitation card on the ground, he hurried to hold her hands.

"Hester, please listen to me. This is not the case!"

He had made an agreement with Melody that no one would know it. But when he saw the invitation, he was somewhat at a loss. He just wanted to make a good explanation and ignore the so-called agreement.

"I can explain it, really!"

Hester raised her head and looked at Terence's anxious face, feeling dejected. His warm palm wrapped her cold hand, bringing some warmth to her. She shamelessly found that she was so reluctant to leave his warmth.

After a short moment of distraction, she looked at his dark eyes, somewhat absent-minded. Was everything between them all fake? But why the feeling was so real when they looked at each other?

"Is Melody really pregnant?"

Staring at her in astonishment, Terence held her hand more tightly. He had thought that she was sad about the wedding, but why did she suddenly ask about the baby?

Looking at her sorrowful eyes, he nodded hardly. When Melody's abdomen became swollen, it would be hard to hide the truth. He had nothing to defend himself.

"It's true!"

Hester struggled to break free from his hand, and fell onto the bed because of losing her balance.

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

r. Terence be absent-minded?

As Terence regained his composure, he said with a cold look: "Go on!"

'Maybe it's because he hasn't rested well recently. He is so sensitive?' Just now, he suddenly felt a sense of resentment pouncing on his face.

The blood thirsty factors deep in his bones were aroused, that he would always pay special attention to this kind of mood. With Sheryl's arrangement, Terence lowered his eyes and listened to the preparation of the press conference. He was annoyed.

Although it was just a show, his patience was running out.

After arriving at his villa, Mike went to the study room

and threw his coat away. Then he turned on the computer and video chatted with others. Leaning on the sofa lazily, he looked out of the window at the scenery, with complex emotions in his heart.

"At home?"

A low and deep voice broke in, interrupting Mike's sentimental guilt. Withdrawing his gaze, Mike looked at the person hiding in the shadow on the screen.

He was more afraid of that person than grateful, for his powerful strength. Every time he was driven to a dead end, that man could easily save him, which made him feel terrifying.

"I just came to Qi group!"

The mystery man on the other side nodded slightly, swaying his wine glass. His slender fingers looked like jade against the reflection of the glass.

"I hope you can take control of Qi group this time!"
