Chapter 1134:
Just seeing Kellan irritated him. He had never felt this jealous before.
This time, Allison didnât even look his way.
ââMr. Stevens, instead of causing a scene while youâre drunk, you should be with your pregnant wife,ââ she said.
Her eyes narrowed slightly. ââIf youâre still trying to act as if you wanted to win me, all youâll do is lose my respect even more. Colton, this is the same as before. If you have any dignity left, donât bother showing up here again.ââ
Something hadnât changed at all, whether it was the past or the present. Colton had always been in a situation where he had a wife but still felt unfulfilled. Simply put, his actions were all about selfish desires.
Allison could sense that he might actually regret it, that maybe he had really cared for her after all.
In the end, this kind of person only cared about themselves. This was obvious from the high-heel incident earlier.
Melany, who had been trailing not far behind, overheard the conversation. Knowing that she couldnât make a scene here, she just clenched her teeth, holding back her frustration.
ââColton, itâs okay, really,ââ she said, forcing the words out between gritted teeth. ââYou two talk. Iâll go get some water.ââ
From the start, Melany had been quietly listening to Coltonâs words, her nails nearly digging into her palms.
But she didnât dare to speak up.
She knew that Colton was close to losing his temper. If he truly didnât want the child, she would have to find another way out. Since Colton was useless, she couldnât help but be harsh.
When Allison spoke, Colton felt as if everything was crashing down on him.

ââI understand,ââ he said, forcing a smile that didnât reach his eyes. ââI didnât realize until now that it was all just my own wishful thinking. I was clearly overstepping.ââ
When he heard Allison tell him, ââAll youâll do is lose my respect even more,ââ it felt like a heavy weight on his chest.
As a man, there was nothing worse than feeling like this.
After speaking, Colton didnât stick around. He left, lost in a daze.
Kellan then pulled Allison close, wrapping his arm around her waist.
ââYouâve had a rough day, dealing with both a cocky copycat and scum like Colton,ââ he said.
He released her and gently placed his hand on her shoulder.
ââLet me give your shoulders a rub. Relax when you get home.ââ
ââSure, that pressure feels just right,ââ she replied.
Allison closed her eyes, stretching out like a content cat.
ââI didnât let any of that bother me, but Mr. Lloyd, you seem pretty upset.ââ
She didnât hide her pleasure as she enjoyed Kellanâs massage.
His hands were skilled, no doubt about it.
Despite all that had happened today, Allison felt like she had grown more. The most important thing was that she had found someone who truly fit her.
