Chapter 154
Sometimes, men were just laughable.
When women loved them like their life depended on it, they didn’t cherish it.
But the moment the women came to their senses, they came crawling back.
Of course, if it hadn’t been for Bowen’s involvement, Derek wouldn’t have realized his mistake so quickly.
Selena was really lucky to have such a protective brother.
Unlike her…
Derek flew into a rage and grabbed Autumn’s wrist. “Autumn, what nonsense are you saying? Did you say something to Selena that made her insist on breaking up with me?
“Autumn, how can you be so vicious? Your own marriage is a mess, and now you’re trying to break me and Selena up too?”
Derek refused to believe that Selena, who used to love him so much, could just stop loving him.
Someone must have gotten in her head. That was the only reason she blocked him and cut ties completely.
Autumn flung his hand away and curled her lips into a mocking smile. “Derek, take a look at yourself. Do you really think you’re good enough for Selena?
“Someone like you who can’t stay loyal—what makes you think you deserve her?”
Derek stumbled from her shove and nearly fell.
His face twisted in fury. “And who are you to judge me? Your own husband cheated and paraded his mistress around like a
trophy.
“He kicked you out of the house and the company, and now you assume all men are like that?
“You’re a spiteful woman. I know you said something to Selena. That’s why she misunderstood and blocked me.”
He didn’t know exactly who Autumn’s husband was, but he’d heard Selena vent about her often enough to remember a few
things.
Never thought it would come in handy.
If Selena stayed silent, Autumn’s reputation would take the hit.
It was during work hours, and the two of them were quarreling at the entrance.
Many people stopped to watch the drama.
Some even ate their breakfast while gathering around, grateful for something juicy to spice up the dull workday.
“So this new girl got kicked out by her husband and the company? But I heard she wrote that new project paper all by herself.”
“Didn’t you hear? Her husband cheated on her. Homewreckers are the worst. Honestly, sometimes I think they deserve to be locked up and thrown in the river like back in the dark ages.”
“I agree. Mistresses should be arrested. They’re like parasites. Wouldn’t even be too harsh to line them up and shoot them.”
“Men cheat, and somehow it’s always the woman’s fault? Why aren’t you blaming the man? You’re women too!”
The tone shifted instantly.
