Chapter 100 All Against One
Melanie’s resilience impressed me, and I thought she was pretty shameless to say such a thing. After all,
she was in a humiliating position herself,
“Go ahead. I’m sure you never lack good news since you’re so shameless,” I retorted and met Melanie’s
gaze.
Unexpectedly, Henry spoke, “Stop being stubborn. You’re equally responsible in this situation. Don’t think
everyone owes you something!”
I stared at him and didn’t know how to respond. Soon after, Matthew entered and saw me holding Ava.

“Matt, why are you in a hurry to leave? I didn’t tell Chloe the good news yet,” Melanie sneered at him, “Do
you even want to go home with her now? My child needs a father, too.”
My mind went blank, and my head throbbed. I swayed, and Matthew came to support me. “Honey.” 1

“Solve it internally?” After putting Ava down, I stared at Henry and asked, “I’d like to hear how you plan on solving this.”
Everyone in the room fell silent. With a heavy heart, I turned to Matthew and asked, “Tell me, how do you propose we handle this internally?!
Ava tightened her grip on my thigh and called me, “Mommy.
