Chapter 5
Braydon’s entrepreneurship went smoothly, and he quickly secured his first project.
He invited me to the celebration dinner, repeatedly assuring me.
“I will always accompany you and the baby well in the future. If you see anything wrong with me, just let me know and I will change.”
As soon as we arrived at the restaurant, the waiter’s smile froze on her face, and she muttered something under her breath.
“How come there was a change of personnel?”
The voice was not loud, but it happened to be audible to me.
I stopped in my tracks as soon as my supervisor sent me a message, saying that there was
something I needed to come back to the office and confirm.
Braydon had a calm face, full of unwillingness. “Can’t you push the work for me, just this once?”
I shook my head.

How many times did I need to call him when he hung up the phone without asking a single question,
saying he was working overtime?
I kindly went to deliver food to him, and his colleague took a liking to my clothes and asked for my
contact information to get the same one. When he saw it, he blamed me for monitoring him.
He said that I was controlling him so much that he was almost suffocating, and he didn’t allow me
to disturb him while he was working.
But now, he actually wants me to give up my job for a celebration that has nothing to do with me.
Braydon paced restlessly.
“Annie, it was because you didn’t believe me and Lilian that I brought you to the celebration. Now
that you’re leaving, don’t get jealous again.”
I nodded, things like jealousy had long lost their meaning.
After finalizing the plan to go abroad, the supervisor told me that the time was set for next Sunday,
and she looked at me with concern.
“You have lost quite a bit of weight these days, are you still giving me the cold shoulder?”
I didn’t answer, perhaps I was just waiting for the final verdict.
Suddenly, my phone popped up with a friend request, and the profile picture was of the female waitress I had just met at the hotel. After accepting it, she sent me á video.

In the video, Lilian fed Braydon with a glass of wine while his friends cheered around. After the video ended, a message came from the other side.
“I despise you, you despicable mistresses who can’t stand the light.”
I burst into laughter and sent the marriage certificate from the photo album. The other side replied, “What the,” and blocked me.
I handed over the records to Braydon and turned off the phone as well.
There were many procedures to be done. After I finished my work at the company, I turned on my
phone and received a call from Kenley.
She had a sharp tone and her words were not polite.
Annie! Where did you go? Braydon ended up in jail because of you!”
I was confused and asked her, “What’s wrong?”
She was so angry that her voice was trembling, “What else happened? What did you send him? He suddenly started hitting people, even Lilian and the others couldn’t hold him back!”
“The police have now arrested him and taken him away for questioning. I am unable to return as I
am out of town, so please hurry over and see what the situation is!”
“I really don’t know how you became my wife. Are you jealous again?”
She didn’t give me a chance to argue and hung up the phone directly.
It seemed that he was very angry.
When I arrived at the police station, Braydon had already settled with the other party.
He covered his face, which had been scratched and was bleeding, and quickly came to my side as
soon as he saw me.
“Annie, listen to me, things were not as you thought!”
That was just a punishment game! Everyone was playing, and this girl misunderstood, so she deliberately acted like this.
Lilian’s face was full of apologies, but her eyes couldn’t hide her pride.
I’m sorry, Annie. We have all grown up together and are used to this. Don’t worry, I really didn’t have anything with Braydon.
Before I could say anything, the waitress who also came out of the police station limped over and spat at Lilian fiercely.
“Shameless, manly tea!”

Lilian’s face turned pale all of a sudden, and Braydon glared fiercely at the waitress, clenching his fists tightly with a cracking sound.
Tears welled up in Lilian’s eyes as she spoke, as if she had been greatly wronged, “Annie, you have to believe that Braydon and I were innocent.”
I nodded.
“You were innocen
“Alright, alright, let’s go home first.”
Realizing that something was wrong with me, Braydon instinctively stepped in to smooth things
over.

I opened the passenger door next to him, and there was a child sitting on it. When he saw me approaching, he made a funny face at me.
