My Wealthy Husband

Ewan was holding Ella’s hand. Nova took a look at them, her face neutral, talking slowly.

“I give you three minutes to take her out of here.

“Ewan,” Ella tensed, clutching Ewan’s sleeve.

After a moment of hesitation, Ewan replied in a soft voice.

“Ella, wait outside for me, alright?”

Tears welled behind Ella’s eyes immediately. She pushed Ewan away, took a angry glance at Nova, ran out crying.

Ewan turned around to talk to Nova before chasing Ella.

“Just wait here, I’ll be right back.”

Numbly, Nova just watched him left. When Ewan was out of her vision, she took an elevator downstairs.

She drove all the way to the Night Club.

The night hadn’t fallen yet so the club was rather slack. The career wear she’s in drew some eyes to her the moment she stepped in the club. She caught a flamboyantly-dressed man flirting with two young girls at the bar. She then walked over to them, said to the girl with a smile while wrapping her arm around the man’s.

“Excuse me, he’s mine.”

In embarrassment, the girl took their glasses and left immediately. The man didn’t get mad, instead, he smiled teasingly, jesting.

“Miss Graham, you didn’t get married. Aren’t we supposed to celebrate your bachelorship?”

Johnny, the third son of the Collins, Nova’s confidant since childhood, was a playboy. Ewan wouldn’t have entered the picture if a romantic spark ever flared between her and Johnny.

The smile on Nova’s face faded. She took a sip of Johnny’s cup, said seriously.

“I need your help, Johnny.”

A frown replaced Johnny’s smile.
