He Wants Two Wives She Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 8

Hearing Leon's words felt like a knife to Victoria's heart.

When she first saw the news about him and Eva, she'd been upset but held onto a sliver of hope that it might just be a misunderstanding.

But now that she was hearing them speak, it was far more painful than she'd imagined. A suffocating pressure weighed down on her chest.

"What is it?" Leon's deep voice came through the phone. His tone was colder than before as if she were nothing more than someone insignificant.

Victoria still wanted to confirm. "What are the two of you doing?"

"Is that why you called?" Instead of answering, Leon threw another question back at her.

Feeling completely disappointed, Victoria took a moment to steady her emotions and decided against wasting more time. "Where's my suitcase? Give it back."

The response she got was a dial tone. Leon had hung up.

Victoria called again and vowed to get her documents back. The longer they stayed with him, the more likely something was to go wrong.

This time, Leon didn't pick up.

…

Eva glanced at the screen and saw Victoria's number, so she tentatively asked, "Aren't you going to answer?"

"First come, first served. Let's watch TV first." Leon ignored the phone as it rang and didn't bother picking up.

Only wearing a silk camisole after her shower, Eva looked seductively sexy as she wrapped her arms around his. "I don't want to watch TV. I want to do something else with you."

She leaned in closer. If Leon just lowered his gaze, he'd see the inviting view below her neckline.

"Please." Leon stopped her. He was unaffected by her advances. "Your current priority is to take care of your health."
