The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge

Chapter 328

Right now, though, McNeil was eyeing Paul with clear disapproval. "Greet her properly-"

He repeated himself, and Paul glanced at Victoria. The emotions flickered across his face so fast and so raw that even Victoria felt a twinge of sympathy for him.
