I almost laughed when I saw her righteous indignation.

It seemed she did not intend to hide anything from me anymore.

I wiped the blood from the corner of my mouth. "Snow, are you really gonna protect your lover in front of me?"

Chad immediately glared at me fiercely. "Who are you calling a lover? Your ambition has made you go insane, you gigolo!"

After saying that, he was about to hit me again, but I resolutely intercepted his attack. My gaze fell on Snow, who was a few steps away.

"I'm giving you one last chance. Explain yourself."

Snow frowned at me and, after a moment, said coldly, "I don't know you, sir. I'm treating you politely, but that doesn't mean I can accept you mistreating my husband again and again. Our company's legal team is not just for show!"

The people around burst out laughing.

"Why are you still keeping up the act? Ms. Wardle's already here, but you're still saying all that crap! You should run away before Ms. Wardle completely destroys you!"

"He looks all proper, but he's a scumbag inside, trying to be a homewrecker in front of the husband!"

Snow then said in a voice that only she and I could hear, "Jesse, this is the last chance you'll get from me. Don't be ungrateful. Do you see anyone in the Wardle Group still willing to listen to you?"

I retorted without hesitation, "How shameless can you be?! We all know the truth!"

"If you hadn't made a fuss, all this wouldn't have happened. You deserve it. Now go home and reflect on your actions, or you'll regret this!"

I couldn't help but sneer. It seemed a life of luxury had made her forget who it was that helped her get to where she was!

Chad grabbed Snow's arm and pretended to persuade her, "Honey, don't be mad, maybe he's just confused..."

"Confused? I think he's being greedy!"

Snow turned to Mr. Harrington, "Handle this according to procedure. Make sure the compensation is paid in full! Let's see how he's gonna pay!"

Watching her speak so confidently, I suddenly felt like I had wasted a lot of years raising a backstabber.

"Sure," I nodded, "Compensation, right? How much do you want?"

As soon as I said that, the surrounding lackeys laughed.

Chad looked me up and down and said smugly, "Two million."

"Can you afford it? I bet you don't even have a thousand."

Snow crossed her arms, a mocking smile on her face.

"Jesse, I've already cut off your credit cards. How are you going to pay?"

I pursed my lips. I did not expect Snow to cheat on me with a brainless fool like that.

Even my family's nanny's annual salary was more than two million.

"Okay."

Instantly, mocking laughter rose around me.

"Keep acting, keep acting!"

"Two million? You?"

"Stop wasting everyone's time. Ms. Wardle, there's no need to be polite to him. Drag this madman away; don't let him continue to embarrass himself here. This kind of person will take a whole arm if you give him a finger!"

The bodyguards stepped forward, ready to grab my arm.

Just then, over a dozen luxury cars drove up from afar and helicopters buzzed loudly overhead, shaking the ground.

The smile on Snow's face froze.

"What... what's going on?"

The luxury cars stopped neatly at the entrance, and a group of bodyguards in suits walked over in an orderly manner. An elderly man with a white beard, dressed in high-end custom-made clothing, descended from the helicopter.

His sharp gaze surveyed the scene before finally landing on me. He walked straight to me and bowed respectfully.

"Sorry we're late, Mr. Swain."
