章 51: Chapter 51 Whisper in the Ear

"Alright, I promise you."

Felix let out a breath he didn't realize he was holding. He asked carefully, "You won't bail on me like before, right?"

Blanche felt a bit embarrassed; she indeed had flaked out too many times in the past. But this time, she genuinely needed help; otherwise, how could she escape Alan's clutches?

"Don't worry. You've helped me so many times; I have to repay you somehow." Blanche didn't like being in debt to others.

Felix was silent for a moment, sensing that Blanche seemed unusually polite toward him.

"Sheila, do you still have contact with your ex-husband?"

Mentioning her ex-husband brought Alan's loathsome face to Blanche's mind.

"What's the matter?" Blanche immediately became alert.

Her relationship with Alan was complicated, and she didn't want anyone to know about it, nor did she want to bring it up herself.
