Chapter 187: Don’t forget you desperately need my help
In the village.
Melina stared at the photos the stranger had sent her, her eyes stained with hatred and jealousy, red and terrified.
They were pictures of Orlando taking Felicia to dinner, to the movies and to bed. One after another, so clear that even the ordinary images seemed very intimate and loving.
Biting her lip so hard that blood dripped into her mouth, Melina acted as if she didn’t feel the pain.
The eyes were fierce and terrifying.
-You can never take the title of Orlando’s wife away from me, it’s mine, mine alone. Neither Vanessa nor you, I won’t allow you to steal Orlando from me! -muttered Melina with a sombre expression, looking at the photo with bitterness in her eyes.

Early in the morning at the hotel.
Orlando was still asleep when he was awakened by a slap. His face became grim and terrified and he opened his eyes fiercely.
Felicia was taken aback by his murderous stare, but quickly regained her haughty, lofty attitude and sent Orlando on his way:
-Why are you looking at me so fiercely? It’s late and I’m starving, go buy me breakfast.
Felicia commanded authoritatively, treating Orlando as her slave.
Orlando was already annoyed that she had woken up so early. He could barely contain his anger, thinking that he had put up with her for so long, and couldn’t leave it halfway without seeing any benefit, so he had to contain his anger for the moment anyway.
-What would you like to eat?
-Egg and rice at the shop in the west of the city. Hurry up, I’m already very hungry.
Orlando’s face got uglier, it would take an hour from here to the east of the city and she was sending him this way just for breakfast.
-Go now, what are you waiting for?
Felicia looked at Orlando with distaste and he gave her a stiff smile in return:
-Look, I’ll get my guard to go and buy it, that’ll be quicker.
-No, you have to go yourself, personally. You are my boyfriend and you will be my husband in the future, so you must spoil me as much as you can.
Felicia raised her chin arrogantly and instructed Orlando mercilessly.
The man could barely stand it and clenched his fists:
-Okay, I’ll be right there.
Finally, Orlando gave in. He had already embarrassed himself in front of Vanessa the night before, and he didn’t want all his efforts to go to waste. At the very least, he would have to take over the Moya Group, become the president of the Moya Group, with the intention of showing Vanessa his competence and attractiveness.
However, by the time Orlando had suppressed his anger and bought the egg rice for her, Felicia had finished her breakfast, complaining that it was too slow without ceasing.
-I don’t want to eat any more,” said Felicia with a nonchalant expression, not seeing the anger Orlando was holding back.
-I’ll take you back.
-No, I’m going shopping today, and you come with me.
Felicia refused without thinking, the last bag she had seen the other day had just arrived and she had to hurry and buy it before another woman got it. With Orlando’s company, she could buy more of her favourite things.
-I have to go to the office, there’s still a lot to do,” Orlando refused, holding back his anger.
He was afraid that if he stayed with Felicia any longer, he wouldn’t be able to resist strangling her.
He thought that with the excuse of work, Felicia would let him go, but Felicia sneered at him.
He laughed and said:
-As long as Grupo Moya is not involved in the new energy project, you have nothing to do in the company. Don’t try to use work as an excuse!
-No, apart from the new project, I have other things on my plate…
-You don’t want to go shopping with me, why are you looking for so many excuses! -Felicia complained unhappily and threatened.
-Are you going to keep me company or not? Do you still want my father to help Grupo Moya in the new energy project?
“Don’t think I’m stupid! Isn’t it the new project you’re fawning over me for?”
As long as she had her weak spot, she didn’t think Orlando would dare disobey her.
Even if he asked Felicia for something, as long as he didn’t say it directly, Orlando could still maintain his arrogance. But now, the last bit of shame was ripped away from him by Felicia, and his real intentions were exposed, it would be a wonder if Orlando could stand it any longer.
At that moment, all his patience and prudence were overcome by his decorum and anger.
-Yes, I need your help. -But what?! Felicia, I won’t put up with you forever. I don’t want to be with you anymore. Whatever. I don’t give a shit!
Orlando, proud as he was, despite appearing tough at the time, was actually employing psychological tactics.
He turned to leave, and his eyes were full of indifference.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
Felicia didn’t expect Orlando to leave, so she panicked in an instant.
She really liked Orlando, and all her previous arrogance was because she thought he would never leave her. When he really wanted to leave, Felicia panicked.
-Orlando, don’t go!
Felicia hurried after him, but Orlando did not stop, but slowed down a lot without showing his face.
-Orlando!
Finally, as Orlando waited for the lift, Felicia caught up with him, hugging him tightly around the waist from behind.
-Don’t go, I was wrong, I’m so sorry.
With his back to Felicia, Orlando’s eyes were full of cruelty.
If I had known this was going to work, why would I have put up with the humiliation for so long?
Predictably, women were easy to control.
Whether it was Melina, or Felicia.
-Miss Felicia, I have already realised that I don’t need your help. You know how our relationship began, and as you are not to be taken advantage of, let us part company.
-No, I won’t let you go!
Felicia clutched Orlando’s waist tightly, refusing to let go.
Seeing the lift doors open, he immediately closed them, pulling Orlando in tightly.
-Miss Felicia, don’t be like that. You know that we are together for our interests, you know that I, Orlando, am just a despicable and shameful tool.
-No, no, Orlando, I like you, I’m with you willingly. Don’t go away, I won’t do it any more. I promise, I’ll be obedient from now on. I won’t threaten you with the project again, and I’ll help you.
Felicia was afraid that Orlando would just leave, and begged him miserably.
She had been pampered by her family and even her previous mandates on Orlando were merely a way of satisfying her vanity and testing Orlando.
She was sure that Orlando was the only man she wanted to marry, so there was no way she was going to let him go.
“What a bitch!”
Orlando thought disdainfully, but the determination on his face naturally slackened and became hesitant.
Felicia saw it that way, it was as if she saw hope.
She hurried to let go and stepped forward to embrace Orlando, looking up at him pleadingly.
-Orlando, you’ve forgiven me, haven’t you?
It was not enough.
Orlando did not budge, his eyes still full of doubt:
-As far as your father is concerned, I am ingratiating myself with you for the new project. As long as the problem of the new project is not solved, he will remain the obstacle to our relationship. And your father won’t trust me….
