Chapter 75 “Thank you.” “Oh yeah. Thea, I heard that your husband is Lex’s handpicked candidate.
He’s an orphan and a retired soldier. Why are you with him? You could definitely do better than him.
Why not consider a successful young man who’s wealthy?” As he said that, Hank straightened up. “I
know someone. He’s young, already a manager at a big organization with a monthly income of fifty
thousand dollars. He has a house and a car. Why don’t you divorce James? My friend would be good
for you!” The friend he was talking about was himself. However, he was smart enough not to make it so
obvious. He was testing Thea. Thea felt warm. She pulled her shirt up slightly and fanned herself.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNoticing Hank’s perverted gaze, she blushed. Looking away, she said in a small voice, “Sorry, Hank.
I’m feeling a little warm.” “It’s not warm. The AC is on.” Hank took the opportunity to sit down beside
Thea. He touched her forehead. “Do you have a fever?” Thea avoided his touch, twisting away from
him. “Hank, about the job?” “There’s no rush…” Just then, Thea felt dizzy. Her body was burning up.
Could the water… She knew that something was wrong. Standing up, she said, “Hank, please excuse
me. Where’s the bathroom?” “I have one in my office.” Hank pointed to a door. Thea had no choice.
She quickly stood up. As soon as she stood, she felt dizzy, almost toppling onto the couch. Hank
caught her just in time. Faking concern, he asked, “Thea, are you alright?” “1-I’m not sure.
I feel slightly dizzy. Let me go to the bathroom and freshen up.” Thea shook her head slightly and stood
up again. Even as everything spun, she went to the bathroom and locked the door behind her. Quickly,
she called James. James was on the way back when he answered the phone. “Jamie, 1 – I might have
been drugged. I… I’m at the human resources manager’s office at Ella Corporation. Pl-please come
quickly. I-I’m feeling hot…” Thea called James from Hank’s bathroom. After she hung up, the world
spun. She could no longer keep her eyes open. She was so sleepy. She turned on the tap and kept
splashing her face with water. That kept her alert. James was furious. How dare anyone go after his
wife? He dumped his electric motorcycle and rushed to the middle of the road, flagging down a car by
the roadside. The driver braked, tires screeching. Black smoke billowed due to the friction. The driver
looked at James and wound down the window.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmViciously, he yelled, “What the f*ck?” James approached, opened the door forcefully, and threw the
driver out. Then, he raced to Ella Corporation at top speed. James was so worried about Thea that he
did not notice there was a girl in the back seat. She was so terrified she did not even say a word.
James was too intimidating. She was sweating all over. Ella Corporation. The human resources
manager’s office. Hank had removed his shirt, revealing his muscles. Looking at the bathroom door, he
licked his lips, smirking. “The most beautiful woman in Cansington. I get to enjoy you today.” As for the
consequences? He had given it some thought. Based on what he knew, Thea had been cast out of the
family. She was no longer part of the Callahans. Otherwise, she would not be looking for a job. As for
her husband James, he had done something stupid by borrowing the car. Once the important person
returned, he would be dead. There was nothing to fear. Furthermore, he would be recording the whole
thing. Thea would never say a word. “I’m coming for you, Thea.”
