Chapter 7 Is Ms. Lloyd a Mistress?

“Waldron is my friend,” Claudia said

“Friend?” Edmond frowned with a chilly expression on his face. “I never thought you’d be friends with someone like Waldron.”

Waldron’s reputation as a pla yboy was widely known. Had he not been part of the Friedan family, he wouldn’t have anyone willing to associate with him.

“What’s wrong with him?” Claudia’s eyes flickered with disdain and sarcasm. “And how much better are you, Mr. Lamont?”

Waldron might be unreliable, but he was at least on her side. Edmond, on the other hand, consistently opposed her decisions and asked her to quit.

The more she compared them, the more she leaned towards Waldron. Favoritism seeped into her words. “Please, Mr. Lamont, do not be so mean to my friend.”

Edmond’s eyes darkened, a spark of anger igniting. “Do you even know what you’re saying?”

When he recalled Waldron’s cavalier attitude towards women, his face turned cold. “Waldron is a pla yboy. You can’t change that.”

“What does that have to do with me?”

Claudia replied with a righteous smile.

With her husband’s lack of support, why would Claudia refuse the only ally she had?

Edmond’s demeanor grew even colder. It was as if an icy barrier forming around him, sending a chill into the air.

“Do you have such strong feelings for Waldron?”

Edmond knew he shouldn’t show his anger.

A regular guy would have been fine for her, but Waldron? His reputation was well known. Waldron just had too many girlfriends.

With Claudia’s temperament, he doubted if she could last a year after she married Waldron.

“You seem to think the Friedan family is like the Lamont family, and that Waldron can genuinely protect you. Claudia, you’re young. Don’t bury your future.”

Claudia’s heart quivered, as she looked up with a gentle smile. “How else should I bury it? My marriage has been buried by you, hasn’t it?”

Edmond fixed his gaze on her, his voice softening.

After a few seconds, he spoke again. His tone was much softer.
