Chapter 791

Christine knew full well that Gregory had come over.

The couple hadn't seen each other all evening, probably caught up in their own little world of affection, so she wasn't in a hurry to have Jane return.

But the person who walked in wasn't Jane. Instead, Christine saw a face that, despite the marks of time, was well-maintained.

Sitting up straighter, she acknowledged the visitor, "Madge."

Christine reached out, intending to pour a glass of water.

Madge stepped closer, stopping her with a gesture, "No need."
