CHAPTER 183

Wu Bai waited for a while for her laughter to die down before making his offer once more.

"I mean it, Andromeda. It is a small price to pay for what you did to me by standing me up on the altar."

"Small price? Wu Bai, I never knew your delusion went this far until now. After everything you did to me, you still think I would not find out about your plans to use me for your selfish gain?"

Her voice thundered through the phone.

No longer did any trace of a smile remain on her lips. She was angry, big time.

"Wu Bai! You ingrate, imbecile..." Andromeda breathed out calmly.

"Fine. Thanks for using me and opening my eyes to the cruelty of this world, however, never would I be such a fool again and be used by you. Never!"

"Is that what you think?" His deep voice echoed through the phone.

"No. I do not think. I know so. You and your whore Beatrice Zhang can go to hell for all I care."

"Haha... I can't believe you are jealous," he hissed. "Plead and I would take you as my one and only woman."

"Haha only a fool would fall for your tricks. Once beaten twice shy cannot be my lot with you. For all you did to me, you shall pay. Mark my words. I would make you regret the day you were born."

Clap! Clap!

The clapping sounds resonated from the other end of the phone to her and although she should have been scared, at this point she didn't care.

"I see the chick has grown wings and thinks it can fly like the eagle."

"Exactly, same words back at you. You were nothing and you would always be nothing but a thief who uses others to climb."

"Check again Andromeda, this is the world we live in. Use or be used. Give and take. That is the business world."

"Thank you. Enjoy your business world but know this, it is time for your sins to be counted."

"Not even God can do that."

At the mention of that statement, her lips tugged at the side, revealing her mischievous smile.

"Unfortunately for you, he just did."

"Are you done, Andromeda? Last chance, after this, do not blame me for being ruthless."

"No, Wu Bai. I am not done. Only starting. You have made your offer and I have heard you. Now here is mine."

"Fine. Go ahead let's hear it."

"Cancel your fashion show."

A heavy sound echoed in his mind upon listening to her proposal. No.

It wasn't just a proposal. It was an order.

One thing Wu Bai was never in tune with, no matter what or whom the person was… was getting ordered or bossed around.

"Pardon?"

"You are neither dumb nor deaf Wu Bai. I believe you heard me well."

Sensing the trouble that was coming, he decided to still act tough and not give in to her demands no matter what.

Sitting properly on his chair, Wu Bai tried to reason. "Andromeda."

"Call off your fashion show. This would be the only time I would say this."

"What nonsense are you playing at, Andromeda Kia?"

"Call it nonsense but when I am dealing with you do not say I did not warn you."

"Speak clearly and stop throwing harmless threats around. Did Liu Xueyi put you up to this?"

"Do you think everyone out there is like you? No. I would have waited before dealing with you but you failed to put a leash on your dog. Do not blame me for dealing with her for you."

"What the hell is going on, Andromeda? Speak clearly."

"Ask your bitch of a fashion designer. That dog would report herself."

Finding her words contradicting and confusing for himself, Wu Bai tried to think back to the conversations he made with Beatrice during this period of time that involved Andromeda but did not find anything to be leaked or done.

"I see you have learnt but you learnt wrongly. Empty threats cannot prick even my toes, Andromeda, not to speak of my mind."

"Is that so? Good. You have until evening to cancel the fashion show and drop every online news you and your people have created about me. Or…"

"Or what?" Wu Bai cut in, challengingly.

"Or, I would cripple what you love most in your life."

"Hehehe, you should actually see how well I am smiling at you, Andromeda."

"Keep smiling. I hope the news that will greet you tomorrow will be one to wipe that smug smile off your face and lips," Andromeda countered fiercely.

"Anyways, nice try. I would never fall for your lousy skimps. Clap for yourself though. You almost had me believing you had something up your sleeves."

'Okay. Good. Believe it or not. My proofs are strong enough to bring you down."

"Yeah, yeah," Wu Bai brushed off her words as baseless, wearing his triumphant smile as usual.

"Tell Liu Xueyi that he has many talented actresses in his company. He should pick a better actor or actress. He should know better than that. I would not fall for the schemes of the woman I dated and know her level of capability."

'Perfect then. I was being nice, warning you and doing this the nice way. Blame yourself that the woman you thought you knew is the one bringing you down.'

Andromeda cleared her throat, holding back her laughter while she concocted more wicked plans in her mind.

'Be thankful I am doing this independent of Liu Xueyi or else things might have ended up badly. Especially with the evidence I got.'

"Oh, I see you literally do not have anything else to say. Since that is the case, my fashion show requires my time. Maybe next time come better prepared."

He was just about to disconnect the call when he heard Andromeda's firm voice.

"I hope Beatrice would be happy to go to jail for theft and plagiarism. Goodbye."

"Huh? Wai…"

She did not wait for him to speak and ended the call abruptly.

Left to her, she had given him the chance, the rest was left to him to decide on, but nothing would make her speak to him.

If he needed clarity, he had his lap dog at his beck and call.

"Good riddance."
