Chapter 685

“Mr. Fairhaven and Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy are best buds, and Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy’s with Evadne. So, tell me, do you really think stealing Mr. Fairhaven’s girl is cool? You wanna put Mr. Thaddeus Abernathy in a tight spot, tick off Ms. Ashbourne?”

“Did I ever say I was gonna steal her? It’s been you, Lily, with your crazy paranoia about Mr. Fairhaven.”
