Chapter 139 No One Bullies My Wife

Upon hearing Chloe’s words, Melody lost all control of her emotions and started throwing objects at her.

Wendy reacted swiftly, grabbing Chloe’s arm and attempting to pull her away from the chaos, while the developer rushed forward to intervene and put a stop to Melody’s violent outburst.

Once they were outside the site, Chloe regained control of her emotions and offered a sincere apology to Wendy. “I’m sorry for messing up the job, Ms. Wendy. I’ll personally talk to Mr. Joseph and accept any punishment he deems necessary.”

Wendy laughed heartily and patted Chloe on the shoulder, “It’s fine. You don’t have to shoulder all the blame. I’ve long noticed that the secretary from Moongazer has a grudge against you. What you did was right. Otherwise, people will just keep taking advantage of you.”

Chloe blinked and chuckled. “I thought you’d scold me right off the bat.”

“If you did something wrong, I would. But since you didn’t, why should I?” Wendy said as she started the car and settled into the driver’s seat. “All right, let’s head back. I’ll accompany you to explain the situation to Mr. Joseph. Everything will be fine.”

“Really? But he can be so unreasonable,” Chloe muttered softly as she fastened her seatbelt.

Joseph possessed a domineering nature and constantly held the belief that he was always right.

Wendy did not catch Chloe’s murmuring and was instead thinking about how to explain things to Joseph. Despite being in the right, facing the formidable Joseph still made her feel a bit

uneasy.

In contrast, Chloe seemed surprisingly calm. Even more composed than Wendy herself.

On the way back, they passed a traffic light. By chance, Chloe glanced at a car parked next to them and her brows instantly furrowed.
