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

Chapter 429: Party Ends

Sandro inquired, watching guests get to their feet, dusting off their clothes, some already preparing to leave the hall—only waiting out of courtesy to hear Old Mr. Thorne’s final words, so as not to come off as rude and lose the Thorne connection.

"I’m not sure," Ewan answered, his brows furrowed as he watched Athena approach him with a bland countenance.

Was he invited to the party? He hoped not.

"What’s going on?" she asked when she got to him, her eyes narrowing in search of something deeper.
