Chapter 202
âBeg him? Have I lost my mind?â I wondered.
I let go of his hand, not caring if Ryan and Jack saw us or not, feeling reckless, I turned and started walking out.
Suddenly, everything went black. A manâs long coat was thrown over my head, deftly guiding me back, pressing me against the railing, avoiding the gaze of those two.
Lingering at the tip of my nose was a clear minty scent.
The scent suited Frank perfectly.
Ryanâs footsteps seemed to pause. I heard Frankâs unconventional voice, âMr. Frost is interested in the private affairs of young couples?â
Ryan seemed to scrutinize, his voice was deep. âYour girlfriendâs shoes, my wife seem to have a pair just like them.â
My heart skipped a beat.__
This is a limited edition of a certain brand, and there are only a few pairs in Jelaston, easily countable on one hand.
Clearly, I didnât overhear any secrets. I could have just left openly, but now with Frank stirring things up like that, I somehow felt guilty.
I didnât dare move.
âSeem?â Frank smirked. âMr. Frost, it seems you have no affection for your current wife. Youâre even uncertain about her personal belongings. Why not just divorce her soon and fulfill Bethanyâs wish?â
Ryanâs voice turned cold, with a hint of resentment. âYouâre so concerned about Bethany, why donât you marry her?â
âIâm not so fortunate.â Frank immediately refused. He then said teasingly, âIâm content with just my girlfriend.â
He then tapped my head under the coat. âRight, girlfriend?â
He was taking advantage of me.
I suddenly lifted my leg and stomped on his foot hard!
Ryan sneered. âLooks like your relationship isnât that great either.â
Frank said calmly, âItâs alright, she just has a bit of a temper. At least weâre not getting married and then divorcing.â
Frank wasnât going easy on Ryan at all.
He might as well have just said mine and Ryanâs names.
What surprised me was that Ryan didnât explode with anger. He just said coldly, âMr. Smith, if youâre

able to keep this âsisterâ of yours on a leash, I wonât have to get a divorce.â
With that said, without waiting for Frank to say anything else, he strode away.
Jack, after pausing for a few more seconds, also walked away.
Until their footsteps completely faded, I tore the coat off my head. Only then did I realize how intimate my position with Frank had been.
My back was against the railing, his hand resting in a secretive place behind me, giving the impression he was hugging me, while his other hand was on the other side of me, enclosing me.
Meeting my gaze, Frank remained calm and even commented, âRyan isnât suitable for a girl like you.â
Even in this calm demeanor, I began to suspect if he was behind what was going viral online.
I tossed the coat back at him feeling irritated. âYouâve only seen me a few times. How do you know what kind of person I am?â
He cocked his brows. âFor someone who can see through everything at a glance, why would I need to see you a few more times?â
I sneered. âThen tell me, what kind of person am I suitable for?â
âWellâ¦â Frank drawled, then said teasingly, âYouâre basically asking me to see your future and that usually costs extra.â
âThe bank is downstairs. You might as well go rob it. Itâs quicker.â
After saying that, I got straight to the point. âLast nightâs incident. Itâs now all over the internet. Do you have something to do with it?â
Unexpectedly, he was very honest as he nodded without hesitation. âYes.â
And he didnât seem to think he had done anything wrong at all.
