Chapter 30: Colton's voice dripped with cold disdain.

Mr.

Lloyd, you may not know the whole story.

Allison once saved my grandfather's life, and then used him to sneak in and marry me.

She is nothing more than an uneducated orphan who didn't even finish middle school.

How could someone like her understand something as intricate as pottery? So don't be fooled by her performance.

Melany, always the shadow at his side, shook her head pitifully, playing along.

Colton, that's not fair.

Allison has suffered a lot.

And, well… he just got divorced.

I mean, before the divorce.

.

.

Melany stopped, as if she were about to say something, but thought better of it.

Nevermind, I'm not going to get into that.

But you've only been apart for a few days and it already seems like she's moving on without blinking.

The only thing she's always had is her physique, Colton snapped, with palpable disgust.

And now that she's alone, she can't bear the thought of fighting.

What's her plan? She's climbing the ladder again, of course, and this time she's fooled Mr.

Lloyd with her lies.

Allison's hands stilled as she raised her head, meeting his words with a blank stare.

It was difficult to hide his disappointment.

It was one thing to realize that someone had flaws and another to see that they became downright ugly.

Years ago, he had saved Colton's grandfather by pure chance.

Back then, she had held on to the hope that Colton would remember the bond they once shared.

As children, they had escaped kidnappers together, and he had made her a promise: Someday you will be my wife, Allison.

She was the only one who had kept that memory alive.

Later, when she learned that he had a lasting love, she walked away without a word, believing that their paths would never cross again.
