Chapter 45

His voice was cold and sharp. dripping with anger.

Arthur stood there, his deep eyes full of mockery.

His clenched jaw made it look like he had just caught his wife cheating.

What was his problem?

Ella was confused, exhausted, and just wanted to go back to sleep.

But as they brushed past each other, he grabbed her wrist tightly. "What do you want?"

"I want..." Arthur leaned close to her ear. "to make love to you!"

He pulled her close by the waist. "I didn't satisfy you,so you found someone else!"

"Shut up!" Her voice was cold and filled with deep humiliation.

Tears welled up in Ella's eyes.11Iyour eyes..."

Her voice cut off abruptly.

Thinking about their current relationship, she felt so aggrieved that she wanted to hit him. "What I wish to do and whom I choose to be with are none of your business!"

"You're really not picky, are you? To have chosen such a man!" Arthur's contemptuous gaze fell on Leo, full of disdain.

"You!" Ella was trembling with anger.

"Alright, tonight..."

To stop him from saying something worse. Ella stepped forward and covered his mouth. looking at Leo. "We have some work matters to discuss.so...”

"Alright. you two talk!"

At this point. even a fool would understand that their relationship was not ordinary.

Though Leo was a small character. his mind worked quickly,and he ran off immediately.

Ella questioned. "What do you really want?"

"Why didn't you wait for me in the car?"

"How ridiculous, why should I wait for you?"

Just because he played games all night, did she have to wait in the car all night? The thought was laughable.

Ella forcefully broke free from his arm. "Be careful, someone might seeus!′′

"Areyou≅cared?n

"Yes, I'm very scared!"

She was scared of being kicked out of the show by Ava

Ella rolled her eyes impatiently.

"Stay away from all men! Or Ill take off your glasses and mak."

"Got it!"

Seeing someone approaching. Ella ran directly to the stairs.

"You really won't beg me for help!"

"No!" she said, her voice crisp and resolute.

Arthur watched her fleeing back, squinting his eyes, his expression dark and unclear.

Returning to the room with red marks all over her body, Ella hadn't spoken yet when Lily rushed over and hugged her.

"Look there, we're in the clear! The director's team issued a statement saying it was a misunderstanding."

"What?"

Ella's eyes lit up. and she quickly grabbed the phone.

Sure enough, the director's team had issued a statement.

Although they didn't release the original video, they stated that the video circulating onlne had been edited.

At the same time, several team members came forward to clarify that it was a misunderstanding.

Her worries eased, she lay on the bed with a relaxed face."We can record normally tomorrow!"

"Yes! The director's team is so nice! I guess it was Alan's call that worked!"

"Really?" Ella was skeptical.

"Otherwise, it wouldn't be that scumbag! The scumbag would do anything

for Ava, even delete the show's video!"

In Lily's eyes. Arthur was already a complete scumbag. She didn't even call him by name anymore.

Ella nodded. "Yes, he's only busy caring about Ava, how would he have the time to care about other things!"

After a few days in the show, he completely ignored her and never called her, despite being her husband. Ella's heart was already riddled with wounds.

"By the way, Alan said Arthur took his phone. Here's Alan's new contact info, you should save it too!"

"Okay!"

Ella pulled out her phone to save the number.

While scrolling through her phone, Lily noticed Ella's chat history and her eyes lit up.

"Isn't it funny? You and Arthur barely texted before, but now, with Arthur holding Alan's phone, you two are in contact more!"

It was ironic.

Married for years, she and Arthur had barely spoken.

But since joining the show, with Alan's phone in Arthur's hands,they had been in contact more.

Looking at thenote on her phone, Ella hesitated but didn't change it.

Lily raised an eyebrow. "Maybe you shouldn't get divorced. Let Ava

always be the mistress, and when you're in a bad mood, you can beat her up."

"Forget it!"

Ella tossed the phone aside. "I want a broader world!"

"Whatever you do, I support you! Now that the truth is out, I'm going to post on Twitter!"

Lily opened her computer and started typing.

Not only did she clearly write about their grievances, but she also subtly mocked Ava for doing anything to become famous.

If calling her a mistress wasn't allowed, describing her as two-faced should be fine.

After finishing everything, Lily closed the computer with a smile. "The boomerang will hit her sooner or later!"

Ella gave her a deep look and didn't say much.

Ella was looking at the chat records, and so was Arthur.

He tightly held the phone he had taken from Alan,his eyes falling on their chat history.

Eight out of ten messages were from him, and Ella's responses were cold,with only a few words.

He opened his own phone and felt much better as he looked at their previous call records.

There was a knock on the door.

Before Arthur could speak, Alan rushed in.

"Tell me, did you do the online thing? Well done. It feels good to be the hero,huh?How did Ms. Worry-Free respond? Did she throw herself into your arms?"

Arthur rubbed his fingers, still lingering with Ella's scent,his thin lips curling into a smile. "What's it to you?"

"Of course! I'm happy to see you win her back!"

"Get lost!"

Arthur shot him a look.

"It's no big deal that you took my phone, but could you return it for a moment? I need to retrieve some contact information!"

"Your phone is full of friends for entertaining, are they important?"

Alan shrank his neck. "Alright, all yours! Back then, I think I heard some secret when I was drunk, but I forgot when I woke up! It was related to Ms.Worry-Free."

The drunken memory was fragmented, he racked his brain trying to recall.

Arthur slapped him on the head. "Your brain is small, think less, or you'll get dementia! Go to sleep!"

"Got it!" Alan left.

Arthur poured a glass of red wine and made a call, "Find out everything about Leo. I'll give you 10 minutes!"

Hanging up the phone, he swirled the wine glass, his eyes filled with

ruthlessness.

Soon, his assistant's call came.

Opening the computer, looking at Leo's information, his eyes turned cold.

"He has a girlfriend he's known since childhood,yet he dares to flirt with another woman!"

Thinking about the two of them chatting and laughing in the pavilion,getting closer and closer, he even felt their smiles were very glaring.

His slender fingers tapped the table, and those who knew him well recognized this as a sign that he was angry.

In her sleep. Ella suddenly sneezed, feeling a chill from her feet. She pulled the blanket tightly around herself.
