James knew the Luke family could see through right and wrong. None of them would believe Marilyn’s lies.

But hearing her smear and belittle Lily over and over still made his blood boil. Even for Victor’s sake, he couldn’t hold back.

His eyes swept coldly over the jewelry on her body, then sharpened like blades as they locked onto her. “The jewelry I gave Lily–why is it on you?”

Ivan hadn’t known exactly which pieces James had gifted his sister–in–law. At first, seeing Marilyn dripping with necklaces, he had thought Victor had given them to her and she simply loved them too much to take off.

Victor too hadn’t realized the jewelry Marilyn wore had all come from James. His face darkened to a dangerous shade.
