Seeing Melanie Ulrich remain silent, Ethan West grew even more frantic. "Melanie, are you listening to me?!
This whole situation is a real emergency! I can't handle it on my own. You have to help me figure something out!
Progen is threatening to unilaterally terminate our contract and even demand I pay a penalty for breach of contract!
If I don't, they're going to expose everything!
The penalty is just too much, Melanie. There's no way I can handle it alone."
Although Ethan West was asking for help, his tone was one of entitlement.
And why wouldn't it be?
She and Ethan West had married for love, and for all these years, she had been the one scheming and strategizing for him behind the scenes.
Ethan West was a late bloomer, and Melanie Ulrich often felt more like his mother than his wife.
For this man, Melanie had taken desperate risks, even doing unconscionable things that would tarnish her soul, and she had never felt a shred of regret.
