Chapter 30 The Mistress’s Provocation
The message read, 1 just wanted to show you how amazing he is.”
Those few words sparked my wild imagination. I knew what the other party meant by
saying Matthew was amazing. I was outraged and threw my phone aside, heavily panting
to contain my impending scream.
I knew the person was taunting me. I clenched my teeth so hard they made a grinding
sound. Then I closed my eyes and took a few deep breaths, After a while, I picked up my
phone, grabbed my bag, and stormed off.
I could no longer hold back my grievances when I saw Ivanna. I threw myself into her arms
and wailed. I couldn’t understand why I felt so shaken even after enduring torment.
When I showed Ivanna the photos, she roared, kicked, and smashed things around. I
guessed it was her
way of helping me relleve my frustrations. “That bastard’s shameless! Disgraceful
degenerate! How dare
he?”
Once we finally calmed down, I looked at Ivanna and said, “I won’t fall for her
provocations. She’s the
wrong one, and I need to show her that her tactics are futile. If that woman’s got the guts,
she should
face me. Hiding and pretending like that won’t impress me

“You’re right, damn it! Are mistresses these days so daring? How can they use their
shamelessness as an
asset?” Ivanna ranted.
“It seems she’s someone we know or at least an acquaintance. She must know I’ve
started working at the company again. She’s been inseparable from Matthew lately and
can’t sit still!” I stated, my intuition
overflowing.
Ivanna sat beside me, saying, “Chlo, it would be great if you could always stay this
composed. You’re right. I don’t believe we can’t handle her with our combined intelligence.
This chick doesn’t play by the
rules, either.
“It seems she’s not satisfied being in the background anymore, so how do we deal with
what’s coming?”
I agreed with Ivanna. After calming down, I pondered how to respond to that woman’s
blatant challenge.
“She’s openly provoking me. I’d let her off too easily if I didn’t do anything. Since I know
she can’t stand seeing me with Matthew, I’ll do her one better and taunt her. Il rile her
up!”
“But what if that raises Matthew’s guard?” Ivanna looked at me with concern. “What if he
teams up with
her to target you?”
“Hahaha! You know, he’s already being careful. He even went through the trouble of
making fake

has attacked me. Otherwise, why would he be so cautious?” I reasoned.
Ivanna snapped her fingers. “You’re right! What’s your plan?”
“I’ll continue showcasing our love and putting on a show with Matthew. First, it might force
her out. Second, I need to buy myself some time. We haven’t planned everything yet, so
we must seize every opportunity and maximize our time.”
Ivanna nodded continuously.
I continued, “On the other hand, you should see what Johnson’s up to. I know there’s a
secret between Matthew and him. Matthew has entrusted Johnson with a few things
recently, which could be our breakthrough. I’ll give Johnson a taste of his own medicine if I
must.”
“What do you mean?” Ivanna looked at me curiously.
“He’s got something I can use against him!” I contemplated how to use Johnson as a
pawn.
Before leaving work that evening. I returned to the company and went to Matthew’s office.
Luckily, Erica
Turner, the head of the finance department, and a client were in the office with him.
I seized the opportunity and boldly asked Matthew for fifteen thousand dollars, claiming I

Matthew had always cared about his image, especially in front of others. Without a second
thought, he
transferred twenty thousand dollars to me. Sure enough, the client praised Matthew while

even refused.
whenever he offered, citing various expenses the company had. However, things had
changed, and I
could no longer uphold that facade.
Moreover, I knew Matthew would use my rightful company shares to pamper his little
vixen if I didn’t take
it first.
After bidding the client goodbye, we went to the preschool, and I affectionately linked
arms with
Matthew, thinking a pair of spiteful eyes must be watching us from a dark corner. Sure
enough, the
woman hadn’t finished messing with me.
This was just the beginning, I thought.
