Rebirth After Being Betrayed by My Husband by Isabella Reed

Chapter 193

“Tellmore about her,” Lily said, her curiosity growing.

“Well, she’s around 26 years old,” Ethan began. “She lives nearby with her grandmother in a modest apartment.

During the day, she works at a café, and at night, she sings here under the alias ‘Mysterious Woman.‘ Her

parents passed away in a car accident three years ago, which forced her to leave her studies. Despite working in

a place like this, her record is spotless-no shady activities. Oh, and she has a three-year- old child.”

“A child?” Lily repeated, surprised.

“Was she married?”

Ethan shrugged. “I couldn't find any information about that.”

Lily nodded thoughtfully. Aurora’s past didn’t concern her much; what mattered was her exceptional singing

talent. If Aurora agreed to her proposal, it would be a perfect arrangement. Lily could use her voice to take

revenge against Riley while showcasing a unique talent. As she mulled over her plan, she noticed Aurora

finishing her song. The crowd erupted with a mix of applause and crude remarks from less respectful patrons.

Lily’s expression soured at the vulgar comments. Such a mesmerizing voice deserved admiration, not disrespect.

Her resolve to help Aurora grew stronger.

“So, what's your decision? Do you want her?” Ethan asked, watching his wife's face closely.

“Of course,” Lily replied confidently. Her gaze shifted back to Aurora, who was leaving the stage. “Let's follow

her. She’s heading out.”

“Alright,” Ethan said, standing up. He took Lily’s hand as they prepared to leave, but just as they took their first

step, a woman in a red dress blocked their path.

Before either of them could react, the woman stumbled into Ethan's arms. He instinctively caught her but quickly

pushed her away, his face contorting with disgust. The force of his push made the woman stagger, and she

barely managed to steady herself by grabbing a nearby table. Looking up, she pouted tically.

“Sweetheart, why did you pushaway? Forget it-you’re so rough and wild. I like it!” she purred, winking

suggestively.

Lily: “....

Ethan: “.....

0)

Ethan's expression turned colder. The woman, clearly intoxicated, giggled and leaned closer, trying to touch him

again. He sidestepped her advances, but she remained persistent.

“How about you and | go somewhere private and... explore our wild sides?” she suggested brazenly, her voice

dripping with seduction. “I'll let you do whatever you want, handsome.”

Lily rolled her eyes, exasperated. “I'm sorry, but he’s not available,” she interjected sharply, stepping between

the woman and her husband.

Unfazed, the woman turned her attention back to Ethan, ignoring Lily entirely. “Hey, handsome, don’t listen to

her. | know you want me. Let's leave together-1 promise | can satisfy all your needs,” she said, her

tona etill entry

Lily crossed her arms, her patience wearing thin. Ethan glanced at his wife, silently pleading for help, but her

smirk told him she was enjoying his discomfort a little too much. He sighed, stepping back to let Lily handle the

situation.

The woman was about to say more when Lily finally snapped. “Listen, he’s my husband, and he’s not interested.

So why don’t you take your drunken self somewhere else before you embarrass yourself further?”

The woman blinked, momentarily stunned by Lily's assertiveness. Then, with a huff, she stumbled away,

muttering under her breath. As the tension eased, Ethan let out a small laugh.

“You handled that well,” he said, wrapping an arm around Lily's shoulders.

Lily scoffed as she watched the woman stumble away. “What is it with these women? Do | look invisible or

something?” she muttered, glaring at Ethan, who stood awkwardly beside her, clearly uncomfortable.

He gave her an apologetic shrug. “It’s not my fault. | don’t invite this kind of attention, you know.”

Her glare only intensified. “Yet somehow, you're a mafor it wherever we go.”

Before Ethan could respond, Lily grabbed a glass of wine from a nearby table and marched over to where the

red-dressed woman had retreated. Without a second thought, she poured the wine over the woman's head,

eliciting gasps from the onlookers.

The woman shrieked, her makeup smearing as the wine dripped down her face. “You! How dare you?” she

screeched, her voice rising above the music.

“Oh, you mean this?” Lily asked innocently, grabbing another glass and throwing its contents onto the woman's

dress. The liquid soaked through the thin fabric, making it nearly transparent. A few people in the crowd cheered,

while others muttered, waiting for a fight to break out.

“You ugly hag!” the woman spat venomously. “You're just jealous of my beauty! Look at you-dressed like that,

and you think you can keep a man like him? He's mine!”

Ethan pinched the bridge of his nose, his patience hanging by a thread. Lily, however, remained unfazed.

“If he’s yours,” Lily said with a smirk, “why hasn't he so much as glanced your way? Oh, right-it's because he’s

disgusted by you.”

The woman lunged forward, but before she could reach them, Ethan snapped his fingers. Two towering

bodyguards appeared instantly, grabbing her arms.

“Escort her out,” Ethan commanded coldly.

“No! Letgo!” the woman shrieked, thrashing against their grip. “You can’t do this to me! Ill ruin you! Let me

go!”

Her protests faded into the background as the bodyguards dragged her away. The bar's usual chaos quickly

resumed, as though nothing had happened.

Ethan turned to Lily, his expression dark. “Let's get out of here.”

“But Aurora-" she started.

“She’ll have to wait,” he interrupted, already pulling her toward the exit. “I need to go hand take a shower.

That woman touched me, and now | feel contaminated.”

Lily stopped in her tracks, folding her arms across her chest. “You can go hif you want, but I'm staying

Aurora's talent is more important than your germophobia right now”

Ethan sighed, realizing there was no arguing with her. “Fine,” he said reluctantly. “Let's find her quickly and leave

before something else happens.”

With that, they resumed their search, determined to catch up with Aurora before she disappeared for the night.
