Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 293: Dont worry, Allison.

I promise I wont cause any trouble.

When Gordon smiled, his eyes seemed to shimmer with a captivating light.

There was a youthful energy about him, a certain liveliness that made it feel as though the entire world faded away when he looked at Allison, as if no one else existed in his gaze.

But right after speaking, he felt a shiver run down his spine as a cold gaze closed in on him.

Gordon ignored it and kept his cheerful demeanor intact.

He wasnt someone easily intimidated.

He cast a casual glance at his watch, the air around him turning frigid.

If youre in the mood to play childish games, you can wait until the gala is over.

He let the silence hang for a beat, then turned his gaze to Allison.

His shadow stretched long beneath the soft glow of the chandeliers.
