Bye, My Ex-husband

Chapter 7: She Is My Wife

At that moment, somebody grabbed his arm.

The light reflected off the watch on the man's hand, so dazzling that it hurt Janessa's eyes.

"Janessa's words might have sounded rather unpleasant, but in my opinion, she didn't say anything wrong.

We are in the same circle, and everyone knows what you are thinking.

Besides, she is my wife.

No one else has the right to admonish my wife."

After delivering those words, Rayan brushed aside Aydin's hand.

His expression was devoid of anger—instead, it was as coolly indifferent as his tone.

Aydin's face darkened as he tried his best to control his temper.

"Mr.

Lu, this is a family matter.

I hope that you wouldn't interfere.

I won't take those words seriously."

He played the part of the kind elder to the hilt, but his face was serious.

With a loaded sneer, Rayan turned around, stared at Janessa's face, and whispered, "I'd like to see how the company will crumble if you leave me."

- His voice was low and steady, and his dark eyes held hers captive.

A frown marred Janessa's smooth brow.

With a tense expression, she glanced at Rayan from the corner of her eyes.

"What do you mean?"

It was a harmless question, but her stiff tone and glaring eyes said otherwise.

Rayan sneered.

"You know exactly what I mean."

They did not try to keep other people from listening to their exchange, so Aydin clearly heard every word.

His blank expression slipped a little, showing a mocking look he directed at Janessa.
