Chapter 57

Chapter 57 Don't Take It Personally

Cynthia opened her mouth to snap back, but before she could, a few colleagues stepped forward and tugged at her sleeve,

whispering urgently, "Cynthia, let it go. Coen might show up any second now. If this blows up, none of us will be able to

deal with the consequences."

"Exactly. Look at how sure Linsey is. What if the guy really is her husband? If you keep pushing, we might be the ones who

Cynthia's frown deepened. She hated how smug Linsey looked, but her colleagues had a point.

Right now, what mattered most was finding out the truth-who exactly was that man? Only then could she put Linsey in her place once and for all.

Linsey instantly saw through her forced apology, but she wasn't interested in dragging this out any longer. She replied flatly, "Alright then. Just be careful about what you say next time."
