Chapter 59

Betty’s lips tugged at the corner.

She said, “The depth of our feelings is unrelated to the duration of our marriage.

Perhaps it was Mikayla’s perception, but Betty’s emotions seemed slightly off

She was excessively calm, like the calm before a storm.

Mikayla wondered if Betty could also sense something off with Johnny.

She also considered if Betty was just in a bad mood.

“Ms. Davidson, did you invite me today for any other reason?”

Betty took the tea and looked at Mikayla with a hint of cold mockery.

“Feel free to speak your mind,” she said.

Mikayla admired Betty’s observational skills.

She didn’t deny it, “I do have something to say, but I’m not sure if it’s

presumptuous.”

Betty chuckled, “Johnny’s dirty deeds are being exposed and blackmailed. You

know about it, right?”

Mikayla was surprised, “So, Mrs. Lane, you are aware too?”

“Call me Betty.”
