His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 245

"There are other ways to help me." Frank placed his hands on her shoulders and turned her around with force. "You could always try something creative!”

"Something creative?" Melanie was confused, but she understood what he was referring to when she met his sly gaze.

It disgusted her just thinking about it, but she did not want to upset him, so she tried reasoning gently," Frank, if you could just be patient for a little longer, I’ll get someone beautiful from the industry! How about your partners? I could drive you there! I still have morning sickness, so it would just be messy and..."

Before she could even finish, Frank grabbed her by her hair and pulled her head back roughly, "Enough of your nonsense! What does your pregnancy have to do with me? Is the baby mine? Mel, you should know better than try playing games with me! Don’t forget that you still need me to help you win your year-end championship!”

He looked at her menacingly, "You should feel honored that I've chosen you. You better not make me angry, or else!"

She was terrified of this Frank and forced a smile," Don’t be mad, that wasn't what I meant. I was just...”

"Just shut up and do it!" he demanded.

They were unaware of their surroundings until the lab's lights were fully turned on while they were lost in their thoughts. When they first entered the lab, they had only turned on the lights on their side of the lab and left the door slightly ajar since Melanie had already made sure no one would show up.

They were careless as a result. Melanie was the first to react in shock, but she could not stand up and simply looked toward the door. She was surprised to see a familiar face.

Standing at the door was Nathaniel. He was terrified, filled with rage and humiliation. He gripped his fists hard and was unable even to speak. It felt like someone clutched him by the throat, and he could not escape.

Melanie tried to stand up in a hurry as she choked hard. Her face was bright red. She was trying her best not to look at Nathaniel. Even though Melanie knew this day would come, she felt ashamed that he saw it with his own eyes. She was not shameless enough to perform in front of him.

Frank stood up slowly and started to tidy the creases on his clothes. He looked at Nathaniel provokingly, not worried about his wrath at all.

"Melanie Thayer!" Nathaniel roared.

He never thought someone he loved so much would do something like that, and he was overcome with fury, shame, and disgust.
