Daddy, Chasing Mommy Back is On Us! novel Chapter 276

“I…” Linda stammered with no words forthcoming.

Hades, however, brazenly sauntered over to the sofa and plopped down, crossing his legs. “She’s my subordinate.”

Upon hearing that, Selena stared at him, her gaze tinged with a hint of anguish and fury. “So, you’ve never trusted me, and she’s a spy you planted by my side long ago!”

At this, Linda hastily stepped forward. “Selena, please don’t be angry with me. I was just—”

Before Linda could get all her words out, Selena swung her hand and slapped her across the face. “I trusted you wholeheartedly, yet you betrayed me!”

Covering her face with a hand, Linda lowered her eyes, not daring to say a single word further.

All at once, Selena understood a lot of things. I remember Juniper once saying that Linda knows martial arts, but I didn’t pay it much mind back then. I never thought that she’d betray me when I trusted her so much! Her chest ached as though she’d been stabbed right through the heart. For the first time, she felt as though she was a joke. Her head abruptly snapped up, and she looked at her. “That spy was actually you, no? It was you who relayed crucial information to Hades, yes?”

During her last conversation with Pierre, she was both infuriated and rattled, so she didn’t try figuring out what he was trying to say. She was indeed a spy, but she was merely a corporate spy; all the information she relayed was related to Fowler Corporation’s trade secrets. However, if it was merely that, he probably wouldn’t have been so enraged. She’d also guessed his other identity, so what he meant by spy probably had to do with his other identity, and that was why he was livid!

“Selena, I just…” Linda furtively cast a glance at Hades. “I just executed my orders, so please don’t blame me.”

Hades waited silently for her ensuing explanation.

“I’m saddened to be a spy by Selena’s side. She treats me extremely well, so I really don’t want to betray her.”

Uncrossing his legs, Hades leaned forward and lifted her chin forcefully. “Really?”

Linda’s heart galloped wildly, so much so that even her chin was trembling. “Y-Yes.”
