Chapter 31
I didn’t rush to respond but asked Corey and Ethan out.
Only Corey
Came to see m
He seemed very excited, and his forehead was covered with sweat.
When he saw me, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes.
“Lena… Lena.” The smile on his face stopped abruptly.
He looked at Brian who came straight to sit next to me in disbelief.
Brian put a coat on me.
Seeing Corey coming, he smiled politely and pointed to the seat opposite. “Mr. Skye, please sit. Make yourself at home.”
Corey’s face darkened slowly. He clenched the briefcase in his hand, and his face was cold.
“Lena, I don’t want to see him.”
I raised my head, crossed my arms, and leaned back in the chair.

“Mr. Skye, I’m here to communicate with you about the bad public opinion about me on the Internet, not to meet with you alone. Brian’s presence here will avoid misunderstandings from your wife. I hope you can understand.”
Corey pursed his lips, hesitated for a long time, and finally sat down. opposite us.

“Lena.” He said a little tiredly, “It’s not that I don’t want to help you solve it, but I have too many things on my hands. I have to deal with the company, and I also have to take care of Ethan. If you were still with me, I wouldn’t be so busy, and I wouldn’t let you suffer any grievances.”
I laughed out loud with ruthless sarcasm.
“To be honest, I don’t think I suffered grievances this time. After all, compared with how you treated me before, this can’t be called a grievance.”
“Lena, I…”
“Okay, Mr. Skye.‘ I interrupted his explanation and asked seriously, “I only have one question. Do you plan to clarify it online?”
“Clarify what?” He seemed a little confused.
I almost laughed out of anger.
“Mr. Skye, so you think what Ms. Grant said online is true.”
Corey’s eyes were shining with a strange light.
He said firmly, “Lena, we were married for ten years. I can’t believe you don’t have any feelings for me now.”
I quickly grabbed Brian’s fist.
“Since that’s the case, we have nothing more to talk about.” I stood up and pulled Brian to leave.

Corey immediately caught up with us. He grabbed my wrist, trying to pull me into his arms.
But Brian was also pulling me from the other side.
Their gazes met in the air, suddenly filled with tension.
Corey glared at Brian threateningly a few times, then lowered his head and smiled slightly at me.
“Lena, leave him and come back to me. As long as you’re willing to do that, I promise those harmful rumors about you will disappear overnight.”
I looked at that extraordinarily handsome face and suddenly felt. an overwhelming sense of estrangement.
“So, you were involved in letting the public opinion escalate this seriously, weren’t you?”
I wasn’t questioning him. I was affirming it.
Corey didn’t answer, only insisted. “As long as you promise me, I’ll take care of it.
“I will protect you and pamper you.
“With me around, no one in this world will be able to lay a hand. on you.”
I broke free from his grip and raised my hand to slap Corey
hard.
“Corey, do you know that you really disgust me right now? Just
makes me want to vomit!”
After saying that, I ignored Corey’s cold gaze and turned to leave with Brian.
