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,

"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.
