#Chapter 149 Taking out the trash

Melody took a step back when she heard William’s voice. Quickly, she regained her composure. “That’s right, Doris. You heard him.” She lifted her chin and smirked. Doris almost had the nerve to be embarrassed for the girl.

“I wasn’t talking to her, I was talking to you.” William moved to step in front of Doris. Melody backed away a bit more, she even started to look nervous at the scene before her. She expected a night of love, not this.

“William, I don’t understand—“ Melody reached for her robe and quickly put it on. William didn’t even lower his eyes to her body and Doris hated to admit how good that made her feel. Perhaps Beth was right, maybe he wouldn’t desire another now that they found each other. “This maid just insulted me—“

“She can insult you all she wants. I invited you to come here to tell you that I no longer wish for you to be my lady.” William said calmly. Doris glanced over his shoulder to see Melody’s face collapse at his words.
