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.

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.
