I Become A CEO After Divorce novel Chapter 169

Chapter 169: The Other Woman

If Yanis was only slightly embarrassed by Antonio's words before, now she felt it was like a loud slap in the face that stung.

Yanis frowned. "Antonio, I don't want to argue here. I'm just friends with Mr. Duncan."

"Friends? Don't you feel guilty saying that? I see that this man is not as rich as the other one. You should just continue your relationship with the other one and stop all these dramas!"

At this point, Antonio suddenly thought of something and looked at Yanis. "I'm running out of money. Give me some money."

He spoke with confidence as if Yanis were supposed to give him.

"I don't have any money."

Antonio laughed. "You don't have money? This guy looks like he's not as rich as that guy, but if you sleep with him once, you'll get $2, 000, right?"

"Slap"!

Antonio got a big slap on the face after all.

Growing up, Yanis had never had a problem with Antonio.

Olivia and Martin had always been spoiling him. There was one time that Antonio lost all her things, tore up her homework, or threw her favorite stuff in the trash, but she never defended herself.

Because no matter what she said, it didn't matter and she got beat up.

That was why Yanis always ignored Antonio, her brother.

Yanis slapped Antonio with almost full force, leaving a clear mark on his face.

Before Antonio realized what was going on, the girl standing next to him pushed Yanis. "How can you hit him? You are so cheap to seduce a man, and do you have a problem with people talking about it?"

Girls' words were also mean.

Yanis was pushed so hard that she fell backward without any defense.

Iris immediately held Yanis by her waist. Then he looked at Antonio and the girl who had pushed Yanis with cold eyes. "Is that what your parents taught you?"

The girl was a little scared by Iris' sullen expression and subconsciously hid behind Antonio.

Antonio looked angrily at Yanis, who was half-held in Iris's arms. "How dare you hit me?"

Yanis looked at Antonio with cold eyes. "If you say any bullshit, I'll hit you again! Did you hear me?"

Antonio touched the side of his face where Yanis had hit him. The hate was clear in his eyes. "Don't you dare!"

Yanis got out of Iris's arms and, without another word, slapped him again.

It might be that what Antonio said today had worn away Yanis' patience with Antonio all at once, or it might be that something Antonio said had touched Yanis' bottom line.

That was why Yanis slapped Antonio a second time.

Of course, Antonio didn't expect Yanis to actually slap him again.

After getting a second slap, Antonio kicked Yanis back directly.

Yanis didn't dodge, and Iris wasn't on his guard. Antonio kicked Yanis to the ground.

When Antonio tried to kick him for the second time, Iris stopped him and then threw Antonio away. He stood in front of Yanis. "Even though you are Yanis' brother, if you touch her again, I will make you regret today!"

Antonio was thrown away by Iris and took a few steps back to stand up. He looked at Iris angrily and said, "who are you? You're just some random man she's looking for out there. She's married, and aren't you shame?"

Antonio then looked at Yanis, who was being kicked to the ground. "And you, since you have no shame, I don't have to respect you anymore. I want to see what Lawrence will do to you when he finds out that you flirt with men!"

Ignoring Antonio, Iris turned around and walked over to Yanis. He bent over and lifted Yanis up from the ground."How are you? Is everything okay?"

Yanis shook her head. Antonio kicked her with full force.

Yanis looked paler than ever because of the pain in her abdomen.

Iris could see that, too. "Let's go to the hospital, ok?"

Yanis shook her head. "It's ok. It'll be all right in a moment."

When Yanis looked at Antonio again, Antonio was calling someone. "You guys come over here right now!"

Watching Antonio hang up, Yanis felt unnerved.

"Yanis, I'm telling you. You make it difficult for you and I'll make it difficult for you too!"

When Yanis looks at him, Antonio didn't hesitate to yell at her.

With Antonio looking at her like he wanted to kill her, Yanis remembered what Olivia had said on the phone.

Did Zane go to the Thompson Residence again? Or, did Antonio get beaten up again?

Yanis had a guess, but she wasn't going to call Zane to check.

There were a lot of people gathering around because of what had happened before.

If it were just Yanis and Antonio, no one would care much. They would have just attracted a crowd of onlookers. Anyone with a conscience would have called the police.

But today, Iris was involved.

And Iris was as well-known as Zane in Manches City.

Soon there were murmurs, and of course, they were not very nice.

Someone even took pictures.

They could expect something would happen next.

Yanis recovered from the pain, turned to Iris, and whispered, "Mr. Duncan, let's go."

Iris looked at Yanis and hesitated for a few seconds. Then, he reached over to the cart and told the clerk standing on the side. "We'll pay for that."

The clerk nodded. "Ok."

"Yanis! Stop. Did I let you go?"

Before Yanis could turn around, Antonio's voice arose.

Yanis paused and looked steadily at Antonio. "I don't want to mess with you here, and you'd better leave me alone."

Antonio looked at Yanis with a fearless face. "What? Are you afraid?"

Yanis knew Antonio was pushing her limit, so she didn't care.

But apparently, Antonio had no intention of letting her go.

"Yanis, you're married, don't you think it's disgusting that you're seducing Ivan while making out with this guy?"

Antonio's words were like a giant stone dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples.

"My God, she's married, and she's still out there hitting on men?"

"Oh, my God, this is too bad. Three men at the same time?"

"That's disgusting. How can a woman be so shameless?"

"If I were her husband, I would divorce her. Such a woman is disgusting..."

"How shameless is that? Isn't she afraid of punishments?"

"..."

All kinds of nasty words fell into Yanis's ears, one after another. These were like loud and vicious slaps on her face, painful...
