Chapter 965 Household Tensions

“Since you both were here, my wife refuses even to come downstairs,” Damien stated, his words laden with a hint of reproach.

Yolanda’s complexion drained of color, her sheltered upbringing ill-preparing her for such humiliation.

When had she, accustomed to a life of pampering and sheltering since childhood, ever experienced such humiliation?

Damien’s smile remained, though there was a glint of steel in his gaze. “My behavior?” he echoed. “I believe I’ve been quite civil.”
