My Coldhearted Ex demands a Remarriage by Eva Blackwood

Chapter 655:

Memories of the mall encounter resurfaced, along with Carrie’s sharp words about Aliza. Marina clenched her fists, silently cursing Aliza.

Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice from the house. “Miss Webster, where have you been? Mrs. Webster is asking where the gifts should go.”

Marina stiffened, her composure returning. “Reece, I should head inside to help,” she said, her tone quieter now. A shy blush crept across her cheeks as she glanced at Carrie, words hovering on her lips. But instead of speaking, she turned and followed the servant, her apology swallowed by her pride. Halfway inside, she glanced back at Carrie.

She tried to apologize, but the words seemed stuck in her throat. In the end, she just walked on inside.

As Marina disappeared into the house, Carrie turned to Reece with a playful grin. “Reece, you’re really popular with the ladies.” Arion, ever the troublemaker, mimicked her teasing tone. “Indeed.”

Reece remained expressionless, brushing off their remarks with a flat tone. “Stop talking bullshit. She’s just like a sister to me. Besides, she moved away when she was younger, and we lost contact.”
