The Cherished Wife by Chweety

Chapter 665

She never imagined Janet could be so reckless or that her own son could be so callous, driving without a second thought for Janet's safety. Luckily, Janet had been at the side of the car, not in front of it. Had Janet been in front of the car, she might have been hit and thrown into the air.

She felt heartbroken for Janet, and she did not give a second thought to Charles's feelings. She certainly did not trust Charles.
