Chapter 307

Blake’s POV

“Mr. Parker.” Adrian looked up as the woman stopped resisting in his arms. A cold smile played on his lips. “Do you see this? This is my wife, not your Audrey Sinclair!”

“Is she really your wife?” I stared him down. “Your acting isn’t fooling anyone.”

We locked eyes for a long moment until Adrian finally looked away, glancing at my wounded knee and the first aid kit.
