expression, scrutinizing every minuscule change without the slightest oversight.

He had no idea that Alison was inwardly calm at this moment.

She hadn't returned to rekindle old affections; rather, she was here to exact revenge.

A petite figure burst out of the kitchen, her face beaming with joy. "Antonio, you're finally home!"

She gaped at Alison in horror, her expression contorting in an instant, and then she shrieked, “What? Who the hell are you? Are you a ghost? Weren't you supposed to be dead?" Alison's eyes were brimming with mockery, and the corners of her mouth curled up ever so slightly.
