Faux Vows, True Desires

Chapter 381

Everyone in the room was startled by Olina's loud entrance. Instinctively, they watched her stride in, marching up to the counter and pushing Avery aside.

Olina accused, pointing at Cecilia, "Have you forgotten your place?"

She suspected Cecilia had been unfaithful during their marriage.

Olina conveniently ignored the fact that her son was currently clinging to Cecilia like a piece of chewing gum.
