Chapter 185
Kimberly sneaked out of the office when nobody was paying attention.
She found a hidden corner and dialed a number.
It wasn’t until the third attempt that someone on the other end impatiently answered the call.
“Who is it? Stop bothering me!”
“Seth, how have you been lately?” Kimberly asked softly.
“Kimberly? Why are you calling me? Why do you care how I’ve been doing?”
It was evident that Seth hadn’t been having a pleasant time recently. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so irritable.
It was no wonder that he hadn’t been active in the group chat lately.
Kimberly raised an eyebrow.
She was secretly hoping that Seth was going through a rough patch. After all, she wanted Aurelia to suffer a worse embarrassment than she did. Pretending to be concerned, she said, “Seth, you haven’t been active lately, I thought you were upset by Aurelia. So, I called to check on you. I’ll hang up now if you’re doing alright.”
“Wait a minute, Aurelia? What happened to her?” Seth stopped Kimberly from hanging up.
Recently, he had been constantly troubled by his superior at work.
Worse yet, things weren’t going smoothly for him at all.
Failing to get a promotion was one thing, but now, even his job was in jeopardy.
He was so stressed that he was losing hair.
What energy does he have to care about what was happening in the group chat? Besides, he had at least twenty WhatsApp groups.
It was impossible to keep track of everything in every group.
However, something big must have happened if Kimbely mentioned Aurelia.
Could it be that she and her so–called cheap husband were separating, and now she wanted to reconcile with him?

He laughed inwardly.
As he had said before, the only man who could accept her family’s situation was him.
If Aurelia approached him, he would insist that she transfer the house’s ownership to him first to prevent her from relying on her family for support. “I get it now. Aurelia wants to get back together with me, but is too embarrassed to ask me herself. Is that why she asked you to talk to me instead?” Seth said. “Seth, why don’t you have a look at the group chat?” Kimberly said hesitantly. “Why can’t you just say your piece? Who has time to go through the chat history? “Seth said impatiently.
“Seth, we’re friends. So I called you to let you know you were cheated on. Don’t tell anyone that I said anything. By the way, I heard that you were almost about to get a promotion, so congratulations.”
After being arrested and taken to the police station, there was no way that Seth would get a promotion.
Kimberly knew that.
She was rubbing salt on his wound on purpose.
After saying what she needed to say, Kimberly hung up and thought, “Aurelia, just you wait. If you make me suffer, you will suffer too.”
How could a selfish man like Seth accept that he was cheated on?
If Aurelia truly cheated and abandoned her boyfriend to marry another lover, he might just consider skinning Aurelia alive.
Kimberly was eager to see who would still envy Aurelia when that happened.
On the other end, Seth froze when he heard that he had been cheated on.
Then, Kimberly mentioned his promotion and this merely made him even more
angry.
If it wasn’t for Aurelia, he would have gotten a promotion long ago.
He wouldn’t end up getting reprimanded by his boss all the time and mocked by his colleagues.
Clenching his fists in rage, he opened the office group chat.
After reading thousands of messages, he stared at a photo of Aurelia dancing

with a man while looking stunningly beautiful.
His eyes turned red from jealousy.
He had always known that Aurelia was beautiful.
Otherwise, he would have never fallen in love with her at first sight.
However, that was just one of the many reasons why he chose to pursue her.
Another reason was that he needed to stabilize his footing in a big city. Marriage was a shortcut to his goal.
