Chapter 23 Don’t Dine With Him
Frankie took out a golden business card and said, “This is Mr. Wolseley.”
Gerardo looked at the business card and slumped to the ground after a bang.
The Wolseley Group was the lord of New York, and nobody dared to mess with them.
“I… I’m sorry. I must be blind. How could I fail to recognize you? Please forgive me. Please show me some
mercy,”
Tim, who was lying on the ground, groaned, “Dad, what are you doing? You embarrassed me…”
Clap!
Gerardo turned around and slapped his son.
“Shut up!”
This idiot still doesn’t know who he messed with! Gerardo thought.
Gerardo ignored Tim’s wailing and bowed. “May I ask what my son did? I would love to apologize and make
compensation for his mistake.
Lance snuffed his cigarette in his hand, stood up, and said indifferently, “I don’t need your apology. Given what he did today, I don’t think he needs his hand.”
His voice was cold and flat as if he were talking about the weather today.
Frankie responded, “Got it, Mr. Wolseley.”
Gerardo racked his brain to think, today?
Tim made only one mistake today. He made a bet with his friends, robbed a bag, and hurt a girl in her early
twenties.
Instantly, Gerardo figured out the whole story. His back was drenched when Gerardo said in a trembling voice, “Mr. Wolseley, we didn’t know that you were acquainted with that girl. If I did, I would let Tim stay in prison
forever. Please show us some mercy. I have only one son. How can he live if he loses one hand…”
Lance arrived at the doorway. With a cold sneer, he tilted his head and squinted at Gerardo, “Mr. Hacker,
others will discipline your son for you if you don’t.”
Then, Lance left.

It is useless to argue with a man who doesn’t love you. Yvette thought.
“So, it is true.” Lance pulled a long face with a sinister light in his eyes.
“Lance, we will divorce soon.”
Lance turned pale in the face.
Yvette looked up at Lance and continued, “Never have I complained of the intimacy between Yazmin and you, so don’t you think you are petty?”
“You are jealous.” Lance looked at Yvette with an inquiring light in his eyes.
Yvette felt a sharp pain in her heart and thought, only those beloveds are qualified to be jealous.
I do not have that qualification.
“I am confused. You flirt with other women, so why can’t I dine with my friends? Don’t you think you are
domineering?
“Leave me alone. I am not your appendage. I will start a new life after our divorce. You should adapt to the
new situation as soon as possible.”
Speaking, Yvette stood up, took her phone back from Lance, and placed it on the cabinet beside the bed.
Lance looked gloomy, and his handsome face was a little distorted. Yvette thought, I said nothing wrong.
After a while, Lance sneered. “I’ll tell you why.”
Before Yvette figured out what Lance meant, she was pressed against the wall beside the bed.
There came a bang behind. Thanks to a large male palm on her back, Yvette did not feel much pain.
Lance lifted Yvette’s chin with his beautiful finger, and his voice was hoarse. “Watch carefully.”
Then, Lance lowered his head, bit Yvette on the lips, and kissed her.
Because of the lack of oxygen, Yvette saw nothing but light all of a sudden.
Yvette felt Lance’s burning hot lips in her mouth.
Yvette tried to push Lance away with one hand on his chest, and her heart pounded violently.
However, her strength was like that of a kitten for Lance. Lance might think that Yvette was playing hard to
get.
With lust in his eyes, Lance felt restless.
Lance hadn’t touched Yvette for more than half a month, so the little kisses couldn’t satisfy him.
