Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 1028:

“Seems like you’ve really fallen under her spell.” Brook, unwilling to waste more words, laid down his stance. “Whatever your personal ties may be, they don’t concern me. But the interests of the Lloyd family are non-negotiable. Whether you like it or not, you’ll have to accept it.” He then shifted his gaze to Allison.

“Ms. Clarke, since Kellan is so insistent on being with you, I must know more about you. Where do you work now?”

Brook’s intent was clear — he sought to slowly dismantle her confidence, piece by piece.

Allison, unruffled, responded with a smile, a calmness that was almost effortless. “Are you inquiring about my personal life?” she asked, as if the question itself were of no consequence.

Even under Brook’s pressure, she answered calmly, her confidence unshaken. “I’m divorced, don’t have much family left, and I work at Charisma Company,” she said matter-of-factly.

These were parts of her past, parts she saw no reason to conceal. Brook’s conviction deepened that Allison wasn’t worthy of the Lloyd family’s name.
