Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 18:Colton had already lost concentration once tonight on the yacht.

If that day Allison had seemed like a fiery rose, full of thorns, now her serene composure made her resemble the moon shining outside: soft and luminous, but equally distant and cold.

Once the initial astonishment faded, everything What remained was a feeling of profound unfamiliarity.

The Allison he once knew never bothered with makeup, and her eyes had been warm and kind.

Now, those same eyes were cold, as if he were a stranger to her.

There was no trace of affection left.

Not even bitterness.

For reasons he couldn't pinpoint, an inexplicable irritation flared inside Colton.

Noticing her distraction, Melany became frustrated and her eyes flickered with a hint of jealousy.

Lindy, are you okay Melany stepped forward, her hand gently caressing Lindy's back as if she wanted to comfort her.

Melany glanced at Kaelyn, giving her a silent signal.

Kaelyn noticed immediately.
