A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 554

They took out a set of handcuffs, ready to take him away.

Patrick's eyes widened. "You must have made a mistake! I'm your boss!"

Then, he turned his gaze toward Wendy and pleaded, "What's going on, Wendy? This must be a big misunderstanding! Can't you order them to let me go? You've agreed to be my girlfriend."

Wendy wore a pitiful expression. "What are you thinking? You must be delusional."

Faced with Wendy's rejection, Patrick was overwhelmed with despair. He had tried to weasel his way out, but unfortunately, he had failed spectacularly. He was merely Wendy's lackey, and dealing with him was a piece of cake.

Looking at Patrick devastatingly being escorted into a police car, a smile that had not appeared in a long time hung on Wendy's face.

Patrick's downfall meant that she could finally openly claim credit from Jack. A wave of quiet delight surged through her heart.

…

In the morning, Jack woke up to find his quarters, Dorm 502 at Alnewgo University, empty. Habitually, he wanted to text Bella to invite her for a meal, but he realized Bella's contact information was gone.

Just like that, Bella Cole had vanished from his life.

Jack was utterly devastated.

At this moment, he realized that Bella had become the most important person in his life without him knowing.

However, when he fell in love with her, she quietly disappeared from his life. She left with regret without even a proper goodbye.

He finally recollected himself. When Jack finished his morning routine, it was lunchtime.

When he headed downstairs, a pink Ferrari came into his view.

A gorgeous lady with cascading hair and a sexy outfit stood at the exit, lost in thought. When she saw Jack, her eyes lit up, and she immediately went to him.

It was Wendy Trader.

Jack was somewhat taken aback. "Why are you here?"

Wendy blinked her beautiful eyes. She rolled her eyes at Jack before a shy smile appeared. She said gently, "I was waiting for you."

"Is there something I can help you with?"

Jack casually asked, "Why are you here?"

Wendy pouted her lips in dissatisfaction and said, "What's the matter? Can't I come to you with no agenda?"

"Of course, you can. However, it's interesting that Patrick didn't ask you out."

Wendy couldn't help but let out a chuckle.

Jack asked, "Is what I said that funny?"

Wendy nodded hard and said softly, "Do you know what I thought of?"

Curious, Jack asked, "What did you think of?"

Wendy rolled her eyes at Jack and said, "The look on your face when I leaned on Patrick's shoulder the other day."

At that moment, Wendy and Patrick sat in the same car. Then, in front of Jack, she casually draped her arm around Patrick's shoulder.

Jack's expression darkened. "Is that funny? Are you also that open with other men?"
