Chapter 188

Andrea was about ready to lose it with Celeste. In a fit of frustration, she stomped on Celeste's foot and, under Finnian's icy stare, forced a smile before dragging the fuming Celeste away.

Amara watched the drama unfold, feeling utterly drained. Celeste's insults were essentially aimed at Finnian too, since they were still married. It was no surprise to her that Finnian defended her, but she had no intention of thanking him.

She didn't want to stay there under all those judgmental stares. So, she told the nurse to update her if anything happened and headed to the rooftop alone.
