From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 463

If Violet were truly the kind of person some suspected she was, she wouldn't have been out tonight picking up a necklace for a mere few dollars.

She could have easily gone to a high-end store and chosen an expensive one.

Even though Nanson spoke so confidently about her, Anthea wasn't particularly fond of Violet, whom she had never met. "They say the face reflects the heart, but that's not always true.
