Chapter 365
“Give them the phone and I’ll tell them.”
The phone was quickly handed over to the receptionist, after which a woman’s voice was heard. “Hello.”
“I’m Eric Walker. Please show Ms. Towers. I’ll be there in a minute.”
“Clear. Mr. Walker!”
The way Eric addressed the caller revealed to me his true identity as Callie. I didn’t know she worked for him, and they seemed to be acquaintances. There was a sudden memory of Eric’s mockery of me, which made me wonder if Callie was the one who told him everything. In a rush of anger, I viciously questioned him, “Eric, did Callie tell you these things?
“What things?” He was still making a fool of himself.
“Whatever you said to my face when we were in the elevator.”
“No.” he quickly denied.
“It must be her, that shameless bastard!” I started swearing. How dare she talk about me to Eric like that? I thought to myself. They must be close if they can talk about such private matters! Such thoughts pissed me off once again as I spat, “You two are shameless motherfuckers.
The driver looked at us in shock. “Why did you guys start fighting again?”

“Sir, you should be the judge! He brought his mistress into the company, so how could I not be mad at him?” An iden popped into my mind, which allowed me to dispute Eric’s claims.
“Does he have a mistress?” What I said seemed to greatly shock the driver.
“Yes, we were married for three months before he found a mistress! You heard the call just now from his mistress! How could I tolerate his mistress visiting him in company?”
“Lilian Hawkins!” Eric called me angrily.
“Young man, it seems you are wrong now. Why would you be so dumb as to find a mistress when you have such a beautiful wife?” It was ironic how quickly the driver changed sides.
“No, I don’t… It’s not like that. It is a misunderstanding, as the woman is not a lover, but my youngest when I was studying.”
“Junior? Do you think this will work for me? I’ll tell you what, sir, his mistress used to be my friend, and we grew up together. She somehow managed to stay with him while she was spreading rumors about me. The fight we had this morning was precisely because of these rumors!”
“Young man, you
as you are.”
shouldn’t be having an affair. I was wondering why you would be so willing to persuade your wife, and now I see.
Looking at the sullen expression Eric had, I suddenly felt better. You son of a bitch, aren’t you great at making up stories? Now show me what you got!
Later, the taxi pulled up in front of Eric’s company. When he was about to get out of the cab, I scoffed. “You didn’t pay for the tickets.”
“We’re a couple, so what’s the difference who’s paying for it?” Such was his reply.
He is a shameless b*stard! I thought as I said to the driver, “Sir, I am not going to get off here, so please continue.

Chapter 365
Won’t You Check My Lover With Me?”
“You shameless man! I’m not your wife!”
“You admitted it not moments ago, so it’s not like that?”
“I said? You were the one who lied in the first place.”
The driver was totally confused by our conversation. “Are you really married?”
