Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 144: Marc hurriedly tried to mediate, desperation creeping into his voice.

Lloyd, please, let me explain.

I didnt mean to spread any rumors, and Ms.

Fire him now! Marcs face turned pale.

He had never imagined that a few ill-chosen words would cost him his job in an instant.

Allisons lip curled into a sneer.

She and Kellan had a knack for sizing people up.

It wasnt worth wasting time on blunt fools with loud mouths, but those who wore sweetness like a mask while sinking the knife in from behind those were the worst.
