Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 280

Chapter 280: A Misunderstanding III

Athena’s brows shut up instantly, the first sign of emotion since her narration about Scarlett and Aiden’s betrayal.

She lifted her head from the old man’s shoulder. "What did you say?" She asked anger mounting on her voice ready to fire if old Mr. Thorne started defending Ewan.

"Ewan didn’t come here by himself." Old Mr. Thorne spoke, swallowing saliva.

Athena stared at him with widened eyes, a myriad of emotions flashing through her, seeing as she had accused Ewan without getting accurate information.

The look on his face when she was sending him away, the pleading look in his deep blue eyes for understanding...

Regret crashed over her in waves.

"Why would you do that?!" Her voice resonated with shock.

"Why would you invite him in here knowing our fragile truce?! And why didn’t you say anything when I was sending him away, when I was berating him?" She asked, guilt seeping into her voice as her anger became directed at Old Mr. Thorne.

"Why did you even invite him in the first place?!" Her voice rode higher as she shifted away from him.

"Are you going to let me speak or are you going to keep shouting? Did you forget that your children are still awake?" Old Mr. Thorne asked calmly, throwing a bucket of ice on Athena’s flaming self.

She cooled down noticeably, especially noting the look of love and understanding nestled in the eyes of the old man.
