Chapter 768:
He tightened his grip on the phone, lowering his voice without thinking. “I need to ask you something
important.” There was a brief pause on the other end of the line.
Then, her voice cthrough, icy and distant. “Spit it out.”
Colton asked, each word heavy, “Are you really with Kellan?” Allison let out a quiet, dismissive laugh.
She hadn’t expected him to ask something like that. Colton hadn't changed. He was still as selfish as ever.
“Mr. Stevens, even before we divorced, you were already with Miss Johnson,” Allison replied, her tone dripping
with sarcasm. “So why do you think you can askthat now?”
Colton felt a sharp stab of guilt and lowered his voice. “I'm sorry. Five years ago, Melany saved me, and |
promised to marry her.” Allison couldn’t help but laugh at that.

excuse for his affair before marriage, which seemed incredibly ironic.
“Whether it was five years ago or more than ten, the one who saved you was me,” Allison said, her voice steady.

Colton furrowed his brows. “What do you mean?” He felt like things were starting to slip out of his hands.
“Do you really believe someone as weak as Melany could've saved you from robbers and carried you on her back
to safety?” Allison's voice was calm and steady. “But | know you won't believe me. After all, for all these years,
anything I've said has only been seen asbullying her.”
Colton was taken aback, his mind racing. He had never told Allison that he was carried on someone's back when
escaping five years ago!
Only he and Melany knew that. So, how did Allison know it? He couldn’t bring himself to think that maybe he had
been wrong about who saved him.
And the thought of what that would mean was too much for him to face.
Colton immediately felt the urge to argue, “That can’t be true. You must be lying again.”
Allison had seen his reaction coming from a mile away. She simply let out a sharp, humorless laugh.

had never saved you,” she 2 her
