Rural Belle & Three Heirs by Harper Hall

Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Drugging

Hilary, tipsy from the alcohol, started unloading her frustrations on Chloe.

"Yeah, Mr. Martin pushed her out to international waters," she slurred.

"But she is so sneaky. I have no idea how she managed to seduce Perry. My husband, who usually doesn't give a damn about women, can't stop thinking about her."

"Perry, that jerk, keeps jetting off and hooking up with Lucy."

"Just recently, I heard from my sources that Lucy's gone missing."

At Hilary's words, Chloe's expression sharpened like honed steel. She'd never truly considered Lucy a rival-those underhanded schemes of hers reeked of gutter tactics. When they'd exiled Lucy to international waters, Chloe assumed the chapter was closed. Yet now came this bitter revelation: somehow that venomous spider had spun her web around Perry's heart from half a world away.

"A healthy person just vanishing? Could she be dead?" Chloe wondered aloud.

Hilary waved her hand dismissively. "No way. Perry treats her like she's gold. He wouldn't let anything happen to her. I bet she's back in the country."

Hilary's words put Chloe on edge. What kind of hold did Lucy have over Perry-this venomous allure strong enough to make him risk fracturing ties with the Martin family itself, all to to bring Lucy back?

It looked like Chloe might have to deal with Lucy again in the future.

While Chloe was talking with Hilary, her phone rang. It was Grant.

"Chloe, I'm feeling down. Can you come keep me company?" Grant's voice sounded off.

"Where are you?" Chloe asked.
