Chapter 785

Judy’s POV

For a heartbeat, the world stopped moving. The orchestra kept playing–violins humming, couples still spinning under the chandelier–but to me, everything had gone hollow. This was the reason we had come here… the moment of truth. I could practically hear her heart breaking before I looked at her face. All the color had drained from her, and she took an unsteady step back.

Irene’s glass slipped from her hand and shattered against the marble floor. The sound sliced through the music like thunder. Heads turned, and then the whispers followed.

Chuck, of course, noticed.

He was angry, and I couldn’t blame him for that. He was seeing his daughter mate with another woman, his hand possessively on the small of her back as if he had the right to touch another woman in that kind of way. Both of them still looked intimately close even after Chuck was just caught.
