From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent

Chapter 520

As she passed through the living room, the girl shot a glance at Rebecca, who was lounging on the sofa.

Daniel really could change his attitude in a heartbeat-one moment cold, the next fawning. She had expected to find some sort of seductive vixen here.

While the girl sized up Rebecca, Rebecca looked up and met her gaze, her eyes brimming with mockery.

So what if she was pretty?

So what if she shared Daniel's bed?

In Daniel's heart, she would always be the most important one. She didn't even need to lift a finger-Daniel, that fool, would move mountains for her if she so much as hinted.

Daniel emerged from the bedroom, dressed and composed, and poured Rebecca a glass of water.

"Thank you, Daniel," Rebecca said, taking the glass with both hands.
