Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 531

Caught off guard and slightly agitated, she was about to collect her thoughts when her phone pinged with a message.

Phillip: “Come over here.”

What, having a secret rendezvous right under Alfred's nose?

Tina glanced at the message and promptly flipped her phone screen down on the table.

Another notification sounded.

“Or should I come over to ask?”

Even though Phillip usually appeared so composed, his threats carried a surprisingly domineering tone.

"I'm going to the restroom," Tina said, grabbing her phone and standing up.

Turning the corner, the illuminated signs for the men's and women's restrooms were clearly visible, but there was no sign of Phillip. As she looked around, someone grabbed her wrist and pulled her into a nearby janitor's closet.

The door slammed shut behind them, the cramped space filled with shelves and various cleaning supplies, barely enough room for two people to turn around.

The harsh fluorescent light cast stark shadows on Phillip's face, his expression unreadable.

"Is he your bestie?" he demanded, his tone accusatory.

"Is there a problem with that?" Tina retorted.

Phillip's gaze bore into her, his voice cold, "Being besties with your almost-fiancé, hooking up with your ex-fiancé, you're playing quite the field."

Tina was speechless.

"I didn't want you to get upset," she mumbled, tugging at his sleeve, "Don't be mad."

"I'm not upset, I promised I'd give you time," Phillip said, though his expression hardly softened, "What did you promise me?"

Backed against the wooden door, with nowhere to run or hide, Tina answered guiltily, "To give you an answer before getting engaged to Alfred."

"And your answer?" Phillip pressed.

Tina, head bowed and mind in turmoil, didn't expect to be caught off guard so many times today.
