Chapter 226 Selina felt wronged, “I was just trying to help, and you're snapping at me?” The whole table went silent, Joy's mouth hanging open in shock, Devin clutching his beer bottle with a bewildered look on his face.
Leanne was also stunned, feeling totally lost.
"Really?" Curtis still had that casual, indifferent smile on his face, but his eyes were ice cold.
Even his voice sounded like it had ice shards in it, devoid of any warmth as he stared at Jeremy, "Tell me, how long has it been?" The most uncomfortable person in this was Leanne, stuck in the middle.

Curtis' chest was aflwith anger, his smile slowly turning into a thick sarcasm, "If you don't say it, how would I know when exactly I invited the wolf into the house?" Seeing Jeremy's silence, he turned to Selina, coldly saying, "Your brother doesn't want to talk, maybe you'd like to," The bar's music was blasting so loud it could burst eardrums, the floor vibrating, the dance floor packed with shadows, but their table seemed to be frozen in time.
Selina finally realized she shouldn't have spoken out. She wanted to defend her brother, who genuinely liked Leanne, unlike Curtis, who had shattered her heart.
Every day, she and Joy would badmouth Curtis behind his back, and over time, she seemed to have forgotten what kind of person Mr. Curtis really was.
And Curtis' recent approachability, which had confused her, was only because Leanne was around.
Selina was silenced by that cold, sharp pressure.
Skyler, sensing the mood was off, gently tried to calm Curtis down, "Selina was just joking -around, don't get mad." "Joking around?" Curtis coldly curled his lip, "Is my wife a subject for jokes?" Mr. Curtis might seem laid-back, but everyone knew it was just a facade. When he truly got angry, there were few in Stonebridge who could stand in his way.
Skyler knew he was really angry this time.
He tried to signal Devin to intervene, but Devin was still lost in confusion.
1/2 12:29 Chapter 226 His brain was practically smoking, still trying to figure out, between Curtis and Jeremy, who was the real homewrecker.
"Sorry." Jeremy pulled Selina behind him, "Curtis, I never meant to disrespect Leanne." Curtis sneered, "Whether you meant it or not, you've disrespected her. We're not even divorced yet, and how many times have you been cozying up to her? Jeremy, I've been holding back for her sake, do you really think I'm that big-hearted to ignore you flirting with my wife?" "That's enough. Stop it." Leanne, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up.

Curtis looked at her, and the rage he hadn't fully expressed seemed to subside a bit. He didn't want to upset her.
"Alright, I'll stop."
His voice, which had been as sharp as an icicle, softened considerably, e "Leanne.
Leanne stood up, said to Joy and Selina, "I've got work tomorrow,!?! should head home." Then, without another glance, she grabbed her bag and left without looking back.
