Out of the blue, his phone chimed with a call from Jenifer’s father.
His eyes sparked with surprise as he crushed the cigarette and picked up the call.
“Hello, Mr. Mendez!”
“Aldrich, where are you? Jenifer’s been detained by the Skrix police.
You need to get to the station and bail her out! Hurry up!”
Jenifer’s father sounded really worried in his tone.
Aldrich was stunned and immediately straightened up.
“Mr. Mendez, stay calm. What’s happened? Why on earth would the police have arrested Jenifer?”
“Jenifer mentioned she came to Skrix to see you, but I’m clueless about why the police would arrest
her. Now, the police mentioned that she…” Jenifer’s father had something to say but fell silent.
“What are they saying about her?” Aldrich pressed.

A sex worker?
Aldrich’s brow furrowed in disbelief.
“I understand. I’ll look into it right away.”
Aldrich was still reeling from shock after ending the call.
Jenifer was getting dragged in by Skrix police for prostitution?!
It was impossible!
There had to be a mistake.
Aldrich climbed out of bed and got dressed.
Selina, also in the room, sat up and started putting on her nightdress.
“Jenifer’s name has been sullied. Are you still marrying her, Aldrich?”
Aldrich paused in dressing and turned sharply to face her. “What are you implying?”
Selina twirled her curly hair and questioned, “Isn’t it clear to you?
Let me enlighten you. Tonight, Larry Castro invited me to a date at the Owmale Hotel in Skrix. But I’m
not interested in him. I’ve discovered a girl who matches his family background perfectly—Jenifer.
So I purposely shared a picture of your bare back with her. Jenifer became furious upon seeing it,
demanding I stay away from you. I suggested we meet at the Owmale Hotel, actually in the room
booked by Larry. I didn’t expect that she did show up! And Larry, I’ve arranged for a waiter in advance
to discreetly use aphrodisiac in his drink. So, there he was, overwhelmed with desire, waiting for
Jenifer.
Jenifer can be a silly one, I must say!”
Aldrich fixed a fierce gaze on Selina, his eyes brimming with intense dislike.
He moved closer to her and seized her by the throat.

Selina coughed and sneered, remarking, “Do you believe she is clever enough to help you take Brian’s
place effectively?”
“Her family can provide for me. It’s her family I’m after, not her!”
Aldrich retorted with frustration.
Selina smirked. “Do the Mendez family in Skrix measure up to the Moreno family? Are you confident
that, once you tie the knot with Jenifer, you’ll be able to outshine Brian with the support of her family?”
Aldrich furrowed his brow and fixed his gaze on her but didn’t utter a word.
Selina gently patted his hand and said, “Let go of me. If you harm me, you’ll lose someone who could
be of assistance to you.”
