283 Unfortunate Coincidence

Keira’s eyes dropped, her gaze a shield against the chill.

Indeed, she had to play the part of not wanting a divorce and being utterly compliant with Howard and Howard’s mother, but that didn’t mean she would let herself be so maltreated!

Cindy entering the family as boldly as she did was utterly shameless.

She looked directly at Howard. “The contract Mary gave you today, it hasn’t been stamped by her company yet, has it?”

These words made Howard stand up abruptly. “Keera, what are you implying? Are you threatening me?”

Keira still kept her gaze lowered. “No, it’s just that Mary has always had clear principles, and she’s been finding you disagreeable for quite some time. If she learns that you brought Cindy to the house, I fear it could cause a lot of trouble. Howard, you’ve been keeping a mistress out there, and I’ve endured it, but don’t push me too far…”

Howard had indeed brought Cindy home to test Keera’s boundaries.

In the past, when Keera knew about his mistress, she had only made a scene and cried once. She didn’t even dare to mention divorce afterward.

So, he decided to bring Cindy home to see if Keera would react as she used to. If so, he could outright bring Cindy into their home…

But he never expected Keera to actually use Mary to threaten him!

Howard wanted to say something but then thought of the major deal with Mary and sneered coldly at Keira before turning to Cindy. “Cindy, her fish isn’t tasty. Let me take you out to dinner!”

Cindy’s complexion immediately changed. “The food won’t be as clean. Pregnant women should have homemade meals.”

Howard’s mother immediately looked at Keira. “Keera, stop throwing a tantrum here. If you continue to be unreasonable, I’ll have Howard divorce you! And then you will never see Amy again!”.

putting on an aggrieved appearance. “Mom, Howard, this house was left to me by my parents, so no concubine shall set foot here. This is my final line!”

Howard’s mother suddenly shouted. “And what about the future, when she’s carrying the Smith family’s

child?”

Keira looked at them with a pitiable gaze. “The child may enter this house, but not this woman.”

Cindy snapped. “You…”

Howard immediately coughed. “Alright, Cindy, let’s go!”

Cindy wanted to say more, but Howard gave her a sharp glance.
