Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 133

Seeing that Amara wasn't as compliant as she'd imagined, Liliana tried a different approach.

"Did you marry into the Everly family just for the money? And aren't you secretly thrilled that Mr. Kevin Everly is blocking your divorce? More money if you stay married, right?"

Amara found the idea laughable. A smirk played on her lips. "Think whatever you want. The money's already in my hands, and your jealousy won't change that."

It was clear to Amara that Liliana's demanding her giving up the divorce assets was envy. She just couldn't stand the fact that Amara had walked away with so much cash. Liliana must have imagined herself as Finnian's wife and resented that Amara was spending what she believed should have been hers.

Realizing this, Amara saw no point in arguing. She could simply enjoy riling Liliana up.

Liliana's frustration boiled over. Brows knitted, she remarked, "Ms. Sullivan, you're finally showing your true colors. You're just after the Everly family's wealth. And..."

Her tone turned sharp. "I heard you have an affair with the leading man from our production? You really can't control yourself, can you? Instead of being a dutiful wife at home, you're out there with another man. Are you planning to drain the Everly family dry and run off with your lover? You must be so pleased with yourself, getting all that money."
