The Queen They Buried

Chapter 296

the assistant coach instead.

Alvin said, “Matilda hasn’t said a word. She just keeps asking me to fire her.

“I had someone look into Matilda’s family recently. Apparently, her brother, Drake Diaz, hasn’t been seen around much.

Alvin probably found it too tedious to explain everything piece by piece, so he simply sent Aubree a document to read for herself.

As Aubree read on, her heart sank. Her worst fears had come true.
