His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 208

Melanie had not paid close attention before since she was scared. Looking at him now, she realized his figure was thin. Much thinner than average.

She knew the reason now and felt uneasy. Since Frank had done such a thing, he might as well have one foot in hell. Melanie did not know if someone would discover it at some point. She also had no idea how long he would last in the industry. However, she was sure she could not count on him in the long run.

Melanie thought she had found a powerful ally and would win in life if she maintained her relationship with him. Unfortunately, reality gave her a rude awakening.

One could not entirely depend on a single person. Melanie knew she could not rely solely on Nathaniel. Likewise, she could not pin all of her hopes on Frank. She needed additional support and could feel secure only when she had sufficient backing.

Even so, Melanie was not in a hurry as Frank could still be her support in the meantime. She could back out after giving him Lily and taking full advantage of him.

She got out of the room and took the elevator. When Melanie checked her phone, she realized she had many messages and missed calls from Nathaniel.

'Did something happen? Why was he so anxious?' Melanie thought to herself.

She turned off the phone and put it into her purse calmly. Then she strode out of the hotel and took a cab. Upon arriving home, Nathaniel was waiting for her as soon as she opened the door. Melanie had expected this.

"Where have you been, Mel? Why didn’t you answer my calls or reply to my messages?!"

U H

Melanie stood still and put on a frightened face. She blinked several times and asked, "W-Why are you back already, Nate?"
