A Mix-up Made Me His Enemy's Woman novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31

Antonio let out a dry chuckle. “Well, I’m doing this for your own good. Don’t let my good intentions go to waste! Relax, it’s broad daylight. Do you think I’ll put you in harm’s way?”

If he hadn’t said the last sentence, Bethany might’ve believed him. By saying that, he only convinced her not to go.

Nevertheless, she flashed a smile and took the document. “Okay. Thank you, Uncle Antonio. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now.”

Antonio smiled at her. “Go on. Get back to work.”

The moment she left, he immediately called the other party to report, “I’ve made the arrangements. Don’t worry. She’ll be

there.”

Ella hadn’t seen Noah for three whole days after they returned from the campsite.

Every time she called, he was either busy or in a meeting.

This frightened her. Coincidentally, she ran into Cyrus, who had just gotten discharged from the hospital, in a restaurant.

Cyrus felt awkward when he saw Ella, especially since he knew that she was Noah’s current girlfriend. He remarked, “Fancy seeing you here, Ms. Reid.”

Ella shot him a look full of disgust. “What do you want?”

Cyrus let out a cold snort and pointed at his cast. “Do you know who did this to me?”

Ella had an ominous feeling when she heard that. She asked, “Who?”

“Your fiance, Noah. All I did was flirt with his former lover. Did he have to beat me up so badly?”

Cyrus continued sowing discord. “I might not be in a position to say this, but Ms. Reid, I don’t think you’re as important as

her.”

After saying that, Cyrus watched with satisfaction as Ella’s expression turned dark.

“Well, enjoy your meal. I’ll take my leave now.”

Cyrus whistled as he walked off. After weeks of holding it all in, his frustration finally let up. It felt good to get a bit of payback

Ella couldn’t believe that Noah was behind Cyrus‘ injuries.

Did Noah beat up this spoiled heir of the Brannon family because of Bethany? Was Bethany that important to him?

Growing increasingly uneasy, Ella called Arthur and asked, “Where is your boss?”

She bit her lip, seemingly having made up her mind. She would never allow anyone to take her man away from her, not even Bethany!

In the presidential suite of Elysian Hotel, Noah lounged lazily on the velvet couch. He swirled the whiskey in his glass, causing the ice to clink softly.

His gaze wasn’t fixed on the rim of the glass but on the door of his suite. He was like a leopard drawing in its claws, waiting for the prey to step into its territory.

The doorbell rang. Noah thought it was Bethany, but all he saw was a server with an anxious and fearful expression.

He frowned in displeasure. “What is it?”

“Sir, your order has arrived.”

Noah nodded and gestured for him to push the cart in.

After the server set a plate of steak on his desk, he gave a wave, signaling the server to leave.
