The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback

Chapter 483:

But no matter how much she focused, thoughts of Caden and Yolanda crept in, tormenting her.

What could he possibly be doing with Yolanda? The hours dragged on, each one more torturous than the last.

Blake raised an eyebrow.

“Don’t let a guy mess with your peace of mind.”

She forced a smile.

“I’m fine, really.”

Blake gave her a serious look, unconvinced.

“Your face tells a different story.
