Chapter 44

“Your neck…”

Eleanor hadn’t realized her neck was covered in hickeys. Seeing Hailey’s shocked expression, she finally noticed.

She quickly covered her neck with her hand and lowered her head in embarrassment.

“Did Mr. Caporal force himself on you?”

Hailey looked at Eleanor as if she was prey.

Yesterday, Hailey wanted to warn Eleanor but was too busy with the wedding and taking care of Austin’s relatives, so she didn’t get a chance to talk to her.

Now, seeing Eleanor return looking like that, Hailey was even more suspicious that she had been forced by Mr. Caporal.

“Tell me the truth. If he really forced himself on you, I’ll go find revenge right now!”

Hailey was furious at the thought of Eleanor being taken advantage of by a bastard, ready to roll up her sleeves and charge into the kitchen for a kitchen knife.

Eleanor quickly stopped her. “It wasn’t Mr. Caporal.”

Hailey hesitated, “Then who was it?”
