Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 231: The next day, at the Stevens family residence.

What is Keanu trying to pull? Lindy seethed, her voice sharp as she slammed the guest list onto the table.

The thought of the financial support Melanys parents still hadnt provided set Lindys temper ablaze.
