Mr. Sallow's Sinful Wife by Maisie Chasey

Chapter 221 Christian Learns About Nancy’s Divorce

After seeing Nancy off in the car, Christian turned and walked back.

As he reached the front door of his home, he noticed Luciana leaning against the gate, calmly looking at him.

“Was it Nicholas who picked her up?”

Although it was a question, Luciana’s tone was certain.

“Do you know him?”

“There are only two cars like that in the whole city. One is at the Sallow Residence, and the other one I gave you on your birthday. You thought it was too flashy, so you usually keep it in the garage. If it weren’t for the dust gathering on it, I wouldn’t have driven it out.”

Christian understood. “What are you trying to say?”

Luciana raised an eyebrow.

Unable to hide it any longer, she approached and grabbed his clothes directly. “Are you playing hide and seek with me? You’re a bit too naive. I’ve seen through your thoughts a thousand times.”

“Well, keep it to yourself then and pretend you don’t know,” Christian said.

Luciana looked at him and responded in a cool tone, “That birthday party at the Sallows and the late- night request for me to contact a gynecology professor was all for her, right?”

Christian looked up at the moonlit sky and remained silent.

“Now that her husband has come and they’re all lovey-dovey and sweet, you come back all crestfallen?”

“Lucie…” He got angry but suppressed his anger as he muttered, “I just want some peace.”

She suddenly punched him. “Christian, you are my brother. What are you hesitating about? So what if it’s the Sallows? The Zayns have never been afraid of anyone, not even the Sallows. If you like her, go after her. How would she know if you stay here alone and don’t say anything?”

“Lucie…” Christian looked at her again, and his gaze was filled with deep sadness. “They are husband and wife. Are you encouraging me to break up their marriage?”

“They’re not. I found out that they got divorced a month ago. Since that girl is already single, you should have the right to fair competition.”

He looked up at Luciana, disbelief coloring his
