Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 1098: But here she was, getting herself into unnecessary trouble.

"And I'm not going over there to help her. I'm just going to tell her to quit now. If this keeps up, it'll just cause chaos."

Melany felt a sharp pang of panic at his words.

She wasn't sure if Abram had really copied someone else's work. He was talented, but he was also reckless and unreliable. Before Melany could reply, Colton had already walked over to Allison.

"Allison, if you don't want to keep going, there's no need to drag it out. I can find a way to get you out of this."

Colton frowned as he looked at her. "I know plagiarism is shameful and that you don't want to admit it, but you don't have to push yourself like this. I'll act like the bet never happened."

Allison simply laughed in response. "Mr. Stevens, I'm not the one who should be leaving."

She gave a quick glance at Abram.

"In a competition that's already started, whoever quits first will only look afraid and be called a plagiarist. Or maybe you really think I'm just that hopeless?"

Her words hit Colton like a sharp pain in the chest.

"That's not what I meant. I know there must have been some misunderstandings between you two. I just hope you can…" His words trailed off.

In the end, he felt guilty.

"I'm sorry, Allison. I shouldn't have doubted you before." He assumed that she was still holding onto old grudges.

But it didn't seem to matter to her at all.

"I'll say it one last time - stay away from me."

Allison set down the shoe mold she was holding.

She looked up at Colton, her face showing no emotion.

"Just so you know, I don't care about time or place when it comes to throwing a punch."

Colton's face drained of color at her words.

Since their divorce, Colton had taken a few hard hits, including injuries to his fingers and legs.

He never expected Allison to be so strong.

But thinking about all the foolish things he had done in the past, Colton decided to offer his face this time.

He took a deep breath and closed his eyes. "Allison, go ahead. Hit me." No matter what, he felt like he owed her that much.

Allison stood still, not moving.

She thought that hitting him would just make her hands dirty. Colton kept his eyes shut, unaware of what Allison was thinking. He believed that she might still have some feelings for him.
