Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 147: After finishing her tasks at the company, Allison couldnt shake the thought of the comic book shed come across.

It lingered in her mind like a persistent melody, so she headed straight to the comic book signing event after her Sunday pottery session with Lorna.

The mall buzzed with energy, its busy corridors brimming with shoppers, yet many found themselves drawn to Allisons presence.

Is there a famous actress here today? Wow, shes gorgeous! She carries herself with such grace.

Must come from old money.

Look at her skin! Flawless… I swear shes got to be an heiress or something.

Allison, however, remained unaffected by the attention she was attracting.

Her natural beauty had always been undeniable, but during her time with the Stevens family, Colton and Lindy had kept her from enhancing it.

Theyd insisted on humility, telling her to keep her head down and act demure, as though that was the hallmark of dignity.

Now, free from those restraints, she finally embraced herself.

Dressed simply in a crisp white corset top paired with jeans, she exuded an effortlessly cool yet distant aura.

Heads turned as she passed, but none dared to approach her for even a simple conversation.

Her gaze caught sight of a comic poster ahead, the name Onyx Jimenez emblazoned across it in bold letters.
