Chapter 235

Simply Provoking Her

The sudden ringing of the mobile phone broke the stiff atmosphere at the table. Thinking about the
relationship between the woman in front of him and Leon, Byron picked up the call immediately without
looking at the caller ID.

The moment the call connected, a concerned-sounding female voice came from the other end.

“Byron, I heard from Aunt Melody that you went to North City for business. How is it? Has the matter
been solved?”

Wendy had gone to the company to look for Byron yesterday but did not get to meet him. Hence, she
asked Melody about it. It was only then she found out that Byron had gone to North City. Hence, she
called him early this morning to offer some words of concern.

She thought her call would be rejected just like before, but she did not expect to get through to him so
quickly. Wendy thought that Byron had finally let go of his prejudice against her, so her voice filled with
joy. Hearing Wendy’s voice, Byron frowned slightly. He subconsciously raised his gaze and looked at
the woman opposite him. It was very quiet at the table. Although Rosalie and Leon did not mean to,
they could still hear the voice from the other end.

Rosalie’s gaze sank almost the same same time the voice sounded.

Wendy’s interrogation when they met the last time seemed to still echo in her ears. She had called her
the third wheel between her and Byron.

This phone call also timely reminded Rosalie that no matter how Byron’s attitude was, he was about to
be engaged to Wendy and she should keep a distance from him. Thinking of this, Rosalie put down her
chopsticks. She bade Byron courteously and got up to leave the table.



Seeing through Rosalie’s intent, Byron replied without thinking, “I have something else to do. I’ll hang
up first.”

With that, he looked up to say something to Rosalie, but he saw her stagger the moment she got up.
Panic jumped on his face.

Byron frowned fiercely and stood up from his seat before he even hung up the phone.

Rosalie had walked hastily and accidentally tripped over the stool next to her. Her feet staggered, and
she could not help herself from letting out an exclamation. She choked it back almost instantly.

“Careful!” Byron held the mobile phone in one hand and grabbed her wrist with the other.

When Rosalie heard what he said, she thought that he had hung up the call and softly thanked him.

On the other end, Wendy had heard Byron say all of a sudden that he was going to hang up the

call. The joy she felt from before dissipated. She was about to say something else but heard a woman’s
startled voice from the other end. That voice sounded very familiar… She glanced at the screen of her
phone, and for some reason, Byron had not hung up the call. Wendy bit her lower lip and remained
silent. She wanted to hear who the woman on the other end was!

Unexpectedly, she heard Rosalie’s voice of thanks in the next second.

Wendy practically gritted her teeth and hung up the phone the moment she heard Rosalie’s voice
before slamming the phone into the bed with a dark expression.

Rosalie, that b*tch, again!

She had already warned her the last time, yet the b*tch still dared appear shamelessly beside Byron!



Moreover, thinking of what had happened over the call just now, Byron seemed to have hung up her
call because of that woman!

Thinking of this, Wendy was livid,

She thought Byron had finally changed his mind the moment he answered the call. Who would have
expected that Rosalie would give her such a big ‘surprise!?!

That b*ch was simply provoking her!

Wendy’s fingertips were deeply embedded in her palm. There was a haze in her eyes, and her heart
was filled with hatred for Rosalie!
