Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 308: Gordon stepped forward, positioning himself squarely in front of Melany.

His face radiated a haughty disdain.

My relationship with Allison has nothing to do with you, he said, his voice laced with cutting sarcasm.

During the banquet, hed done his homework.

Hed uncovered the details: in the three years since Allison had disappeared, she had been in Ontdale, married to Colton.

Stevens, Gordon continued, his tone dripping with mockery, while you were still married to Allison, you didnt mention that you were still in touch with Melany, did you? Colton stiffened, but Gordon pressed on relentlessly.

And Allison, being the gracious person she is, never held it against you.

But youve got the nerve to come here and provoke her? His lips curved into a smile, but the ice-cold malice in his eyes made everyone present shudder.

Nearby, Kellan handed Allison a handkerchief, its delicate embroidery adding a touch of elegance.

A subtle, refreshing fragrance emanated from the fabric, gradually diffusing through the air.

Its revolting to be touched by a scumbag like that, Kellan said casually, not even bothering to glance at Colton.
