Chapter 1638:

Celine said between sobs, “Well, I saw Thiago today. He didn’t tell me he has returned, and he even took a woman to a fancy restaurant for dinner.”

Nola’s expression remained unchanged, but her disgust for Celine grew slightly. Still, she maintained her caring facade and gently patted Celine’s back.

The fleeting disgust that Nola felt toward Celine was revealing. If Celine weren’t the cherished adopted daughter of the Duke of Mylo, Nola would never have associated with someone she considered so beneath her.

“How could that be? Calm down. Just tell me everything slowly, and I’ll help you figure it out.”

Nola’s tone was flat, devoid of warmth. If the woman Celine was fretting over weren’t likely Harlee, Nola would scarcely have bothered to feign interest.

Tears flowed down Celine’s cheeks more intensely as she looked at Nola, who donned a mock concerned face.

“Thiago is really too much. He actually told me to get lost and claimed he and I weren’t that close. You wouldn’t believe how tender he was with that woman. I’ve never seen him act like that before!” Now, Nola was 80% sure the woman in question was Harlee.

Nola knew Harlee’s husband had already arrived in Uwhor. Surely, if it were merely a casual dinner, Harlee would have dined with her husband instead of with Thiago. Could their solitary appearance in the restaurant signify a new plan? Nola kept up her charade, her tone growing even more anxious.
