Chapter 75 – Get away from me!

Chapter 75: Chapter 75 – Get away from me!

A shrill scream escaped Joanna’s throat at the sight of the man on the bed with her, but all she received in return was laughter. An irritating laugh that made her heart race and her anger flare up.

"Who are you? Get away from me!" she yelled, putting as much distance between them as possible.

She couldn’t remember the last time she ever yelled like this. She had slept on the couch last night, so how was she now on the bed? Joanna’s mind was in chaos.

Was everything that happened last night just a dream? If so, how did she end up here?

This wasn’t the room she had slept in at Alex’s house, and as far as she could remember, Alex was with her last night. So, who was this blonde man?

"You paid me to spend the night. Did you forget?" His question drove her crazy.

Thanks to Alex, she was already wealthy, but how could she have paid a man to sleep with her? She didn’t even remember what sex felt like.

"Never you!" Joanna was irritated, angry, and embarrassed as she quickly got up from the bed, relieved to see that her clothes were still intact.

She may not have had sex before, but common sense told her that if she had, something would have happened to her clothes.

Rushing to the door, it opened before she could touch the knob.

Mia stood in front of it, her hand over her mouth, looking terrified. "Sis, who is this guy? Are you cheating on Alex?"

Joanna’s face turned pale. She was in a contract marriage, but she respected Alex and would never betray him like this.

If she had fallen in love with someone else, she would have ended the contract first.

"Impossible. I could never cheat on Alex." After some thought, one thing became clear. "You! You set me up."

The only person she suspected was Mia, especially after the beating she had given her yesterday.

Guilt briefly flashed in Mia’s eyes before disappearing with a blink.

"Come on, sis, don’t blame me for your infidelity. Since you couldn’t do it at Alex’s house, you decided to sneak your lover in here last night as soon as Alex left."

Judging from everything Mia said, the only clarity Joanna got was the fact that Alex had left her after they had spent the night together here.

Mia was not done, feeling victorious by the confused look in Joanna’s eyes.

"Isn’t it obvious that you only wanted Alex for his money? If not, then why is there a man in your room? You pretend to love Alex for who he is because you already have another man."

Mia’s harsh words pierced Joanna, causing her to search for answers and explanations.

"I slept on the couch last night, and Alex slept on the bed. Where is he?" Joanna asked, still in disbelief that Alex had left her in this situation.

The man on the bed watched silently, not taking sides. Joanna reached for her phone on the nightstand to call Alex, but Rene beat her to it.

"If you think you can play the victim, you’re wrong. These pictures will go to him first." Rene showed Joanna pictures of herself in the arms of a blonde man, causing tears to stream down her face.

How had they taken those pictures without waking her? It was clear that someone had set her up, and she had fallen for it.

Rene had already forwarded the pictures to Alex after showing them to Joanna.

"I know nothing about this. Alex will believe me," Joanna insisted, confident that Alex cared for her and would not believe such accusations.

If he didn’t, she was doomed. What would happen to her mother and Grandpa Aristotle, the man who trusted her so much?

Joanna was upset that Alex had left without her, especially knowing the kind of family she came from.

As Joanna’s phone rang, Rene smirked evilly. "I guess it’s Alex. Let’s see how you’ll explain this to him.

If things went sour between Alex and Joanna, Mia would step in, giving their company a great boost.

However, Mia’s actions ended up causing more harm than good. If she hadn’t trusted Logan, they could have found a way to remove Joanna without resorting to forcing her to marry Alexander in the past.

They had been counting on Mia to marry Logan, who was handsome and wealthy, to provide a financial safety net for their company. Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse.

"Alex, you have to believe me. I know nothing about this," Joanna said tearfully.

The man on the bed furrowed his brow, his teeth clenched for reasons unknown to anyone.

"Joan, I’m busy right now," Alex responded abruptly, dismissing her words. "I left you a note that I had to attend to something," he revealed. Joanna was taken aback and began to look around.

Alex hadn’t left as she had assumed, but the mention of the note left her feeling uneasy. How come it wasn’t there?

"Jack is on his way to pick you up," Alex informed her when he received no response. "The wedding planner is waiting for you."

The mention of the wedding planner brought a mix of excitement and apprehension to Joanna, temporarily erasing the thought of the note.

"Wedding planner? Are we moving forward with the wedding?" She was amazed but also skeptical of Alex’s intentions.

Could he have overlooked the incriminating photos because their relationship was merely a contractual arrangement?"

The more Joanna thought about it, the more her heart ached at the realization that he never really cared about her. If he did, he would be upset.

"Of course. What makes you think I will change my mind?" Alex asked casually, further confusing her.

"But..." she was about to tell him about the pictures, but the call ended abruptly before her phone rang again.

It was Jack. "Ma’am, I’m waiting for you at the car park," he said the moment Joanna answered the call.

Joanna was elated, quickly scanning for her belongings, but there was nothing to pick up except her handbag. Her next action triggered a wave of rage in the hearts of Rene and her daughter.
