Countdown to My Divorce

Chapter 172

After what happened with Tammy, Rachel was rather worried.

Did she just hop from one trap to another?

She now felt as though everyone was trying to harm her.

As she followed Samantha, Rachel asked, “Weren’t you with William? How could he possibly let you roam around alone like this?”

Samantha turned around and gave Rachel what was supposed to be a normal smile, but she thought she sensed something else in it.

In her usual innocent tone, Samantha said, “Rachel, why are you being so suspicious? If it weren’t for me, you wouldn’t be able to find your way back.”

Rachel hated seeing that mild and harmless mask on Samantha’s face, which hid the sinister and malicious thoughts the latter harbored.

She looked icily at Samantha and cut straight to the chase.

“William isn’t around, so you don’t need to bother putting on an act. Let’s be honest with each other, shall we?”

The smile on Samantha’s face deepened; her eyes were crystal–clear, never failing to evoke the desire in men to protect her.
