Chapter 143 The Boy Toy
Yet Alfred’s gaze instinctively avoided Nella.
He looked uncomfortable, afraid she’d notice.
“Don’t misunderstand. I’m just worried your reputation might affect Keywood Group’s stock price, and I won’t be able to answer to the shareholders.”
He said stiffly, his gaze directed elsewhere.
Sergio covered his face again.
Great!
Hopeless!
He’s heading straight to hell!
Even if a miracle doctor appeared, they couldn’t save him.
Sergio closed his mouth silently.
Nella’s expression didn’t change. “Yes, I didn’t misunderstand.”
Given the current situation, she wouldn’t be so delusional as to think Alfred had rushed all the way
back from Portford because he was worried about her.
However, she had thought he came to back up Zoey.
When he announced their marriage in front of the livestream, she thought he’d lost his mind and would definitely regret it later.
But after hearing his explanation just now, she understood.
So it was about concern for Keywood Group’s stock price.
Then everything made sense.
Although they had never publicly announced their marriage, some people close to the Keywoods knew about it.
If someone with ulterior motives used her “medical malpractice” incident to cause trouble for Alfred, it would indeed affect Keywood Group’s stock price.
Alfred’s concern was justified.

Thinking this, she said to Alfred again, “So, to be safe, Mr. Keywood, it would be best if you divorced me sooner. That way, my reputation won’t affect you at all.”
Hearing Nella push for divorce again, Alfred’s already dark expression sank even lower.
He stared darkly at Nella’s careless expression, the mockery in his eyes deepening.
“What? So eager to divorce me for that shameless boy toy of yours?”
Seriously? He was picking a fight over this?
He even had to call him a shameless boy toy?
Could anyone be more shameless than him, picking a fight like this?
Nella’s calm face suddenly showed a trace of anger.
She glanced coldly at Alfred. “Instead of worrying about me having a boy toy, Mr. Keywood, you should think ahead about handling the PR for the scandal of Zoey nearly killing her own brother.”
After saying this, Nella walked away without looking back.
“Nella, explain yourself!”
Alfred was so angry at Nella’s indifferent attitude that veins bulged on his forehead.
But Nella didn’t turn back. She walked even faster.
“Mr. Keywood, calm down, calm down!”
“Calm down? Nella cheated on me. How am I supposed to calm down?”
Alfred shouted at Sergio.
Cheating?
Who?
Alfred must be talking about himself. He’s always been shady with Zoey.
“Mrs. Keywood cheating? How is that possible? You’re the one who’s more likely to cheat.”
Sergio defended Nella, but as soon as the second half of the sentence came out, he was so scared that he quickly covered his mouth.

He mentally cursed his stupid mouth.
Please just shut up!
Finished
Seeing Alfred cast him a dark look, he quickly tried to salvage it. “Mr. Keywood, what I mean is, Mrs. Keywood likes you so much. How could she possibly cheat? Could there be some misunderstanding?”
Likes him?
The way Nella acted… she liked him?
“Misunderstanding? She’s keeping a boy toy on the side, and everyone in the hospital knows about it! Only I didn’t know!”
