Chapter 59 Looking Forward to That Day
I shouted at Jeremiah, "Get off me! Don't touch me!"
The more I struggled, the tighter his grip around my wrists became, and his face kept getting closer. Just as he was about to kiss me, the ovnoveldrama
I snapped back to reality and saw Eric-who had entered without me noticing-
grabbing Jeremiah by the collar and throwing him to the ground.
Seemingly unsatisfied, Eric loosened his tie, rolled up his sleeves, and clenched his fist with visible veins pulsing. Then, he punched Jeremi

Jeremiah let out a muffled grunt and collapsed to the floor.
"Someone like you trying to touch Joe Eric yelled, his tone harsh and filled with disdain.
This was the first time I had seen him show such aggression. One punch after another landed. Within seconds, Jeremiah's face was unreco
But even so, he still glared at Eric with fury
"Jane is my wife! What's wrong
with me touching her? When did it become your place to defend her? Even if she's with you now, you're still just a sidepiece! She looks like of you, she'll just dump you, and I'll still be her husband!"

"I've said it before. When the time comes, I'll help you in return."
He smiled at me and nodded. "I'm looking forward to that day."
I smiled back, but then a thought crossed my mind. “Did you really steal Cornell Group's key project?” Eric didn't confirm or deny it.
