Divorce Me Before Death Takes Me, CEO

Chapter 212

William winked at Thalia, whose face had turned ashen. She bit her lip, fists clenched at her sides, mouth opening and closing without sound – must regret the call she made.

“Mom…” Thalia turned to Rebecca, her voice small.

“Useless!” Rebecca glared at her daughter. “You make everything worse!”

Then she stormed out without another word.

Thalia stood frozen, her face a picture of devastation. She glanced around the room, then stamped her foot and ran after
