Marrying the Man in the Dark

Chapter 698 The Slap

Rowena’s face turned pale.

She pressed her lips together and said, “Please don’t take it personally, Ms. Shaw…”

During her years in the hospital, she had heard more than enough of these covert remarks.

She offered a faint smile, her hands tucked into her pockets, and murmured, “Indeed.”

“I trust, Rowena, that you won’t dwell on matters beyond your control in the future. Your main responsibility should be guiding your sister.”
