Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 713

Silver knew Roseanne lived in the same apartment building, but she never imagined she and Owen Reynolds were literally neighbors across the hall!

No wonder there was no sign of a woman in her son's apartment...

Living this close, they could move in together anytime they wanted. Heck, they could just step outside their doors, take a few steps, and be on each other's turf for a date.

How was she supposed to find any clues like this?

With that thought, Silver took a good look at Roseanne.

From top to bottom, head to toe.

Silver had mentally prepared herself for a surprise, but it was Roseanne who seemed genuinely taken aback.

This woman emerging from Professor Reynolds' apartment was the same wealthy lady who had once attended her yoga class and whom she'd bumped into in the hallway?

What was her connection to Mr. Reynolds, exactly?

At that moment, Owen Reynolds emerged from his apartment, calling out, "Mom, you forgot your purse-"

Wait, what?! Mom?!

Roseanne was shocked.

The three of them stood there in silence, the air thick with awkward tension.

Roseanne could sense a hint of scrutiny and guardedness in Silver's gaze. Silver, on the other hand, felt that the young woman in front of her didn't hold her in much regard.

This stirred a slight discontent in her heart, though she kept her face composed.
