Chapter 807

Her words sounded exactly like something a medieval king would say to calm the jealous squabbles among his queens.

Travis and Wade exchanged a nervous glance, each terrified of falling out of her favor.

Travis recovered first, scrambling to please her. "You're absolutely right, Citrine. I promise, from now on, I'll get along with Wade. No more fighting."

Wade shot Travis a murderous glare. That bastard had stolen his line, leaving him with nothing to say. What a schemer. Now Citrine would probably think Travis was the mature one and like him more.

Wade sulked for a while, then hurriedly added, "Yeah, I'll behave too. I swear I'll get along with Travis, and I won't make things difficult for you."

The tension that had been about to explode instantly fizzled out.

"Good boys," Citrine said with a faint smile, picking up her cup and sipping her tea with unhurried grace.

The Saunders family could only stare, dumbfounded.

After breakfast, Citrine received a call. It was Jeff, the owner of Mirage Cay,

inviting her to meet.

She had a pretty good idea what he wanted to talk about and agreed.
