Simon smiled. He leaned closer and braced his arms on either side of her against the roadside railing "So hand over the records, and we can keep things civil. Don't count on Edward to keep protecting you. You two have matching rings, don't you? Why aren't you 'weating yours? Did you think I ever believed you were together?"

But before she could press the calibutton, Janice's phone rang Shirley accidentally answered it while fumbling.

Enraged, Simon raised his hand to strike her back, but his slap missed its target.

He turned to glare at Edward, who had appeared out of nowhere. Yet he refused to loosen his grip on Janice and wamed, "This is between the and Janice, Mr. Moore Stay out of it" Another punch followed. As Simon was knocked off balance, a sharp searing pain shot through his nose, and his vision darkened.

Edward stood tall with a dominating presence after swiftly delivering two punches. His chilling smile was oddly eerie in the night as he chuckled, "It seems you don't takeseriously, do you?" A flicker of panic crossed Simon's face. Sure enough, Edward's next words sent a chill running down his spine. "Send him to the police. Notify the media.

Simon's reputation was his greatest concern, and if this incident were to spread, he'd be utterly ruined.

Shirley scrambled out of the car and dropped the phone in her hand in her in her rush. She had no idea about it as she bolted toward Janice while shouting, "Janice!"
