Chapter 27: Climbed the Wrong One_1

"No problem!" Bella Scott agreed readily this time: "By the way, can I ask for leave if it's really too late?"

Catching adulterers is always uncertain; sometimes they have to wait until the early morning.

She preferred the old Edward Anderson whom she could playfully bully, not the dominating and overbearing Edward Anderson in front of her now.

"Can I have the case that Kiera Cooper took from me? I'm your wife, and Kiera Cooper isn't even your mistress. Why are you helping an outsider bully your own wife?" Bella Scott thought that Edward Anderson had no reason to refuse her request.

"No, I think this case is very challenging. I—"

"Bella Scott, are you the boss or am I the boss?"

Edward Anderson's words left Bella speechless.
