Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown

Chapter 232

Chapter 233

After a long moment, Serena finally let go of Giles.

Giles seized the opportunity and slammed the door shut with a bang.

Reluctantly, Serena glanced back at the closed door before turning to William. "I've got a towel in my car. Let me help you dry off."

Normally sharp and quick on his feet, Finn now looked utterly stunned, rooted to the spot like a statue. A few seconds ticked by before he snapped out of it, spun around, and hurried back to the car to fetch the towel.

He was about to dab William dry himself when he caught William's icy look-a clear warning. Finn froze, then quickly handed the towel to Serena instead.
