Missing Mrs. Lowry: The Billionaire’s Wakeup Call

Chapter 121

Word had gotten around that Sullivan was spending a lot of time with Cressida, and it had reached Cora’s ears.

She remembered Sullivan’s last attentive visit and grew concerned for Megan, so she made a point to invite her out for a coffee–just the two of them.

The thought of leaving had taken root in her. But it would require careful planning, as Sullivan clearly wasn’t ready to let go.
