Captivation: Want Nothing But You

Chapter 380: A Trap (Part Twelve)

The woman was wearing a dark purple cheongsam, which accentuated her graceful figure. There was brown mink shawl draped over her shoulders, making her look dignified and noble. Becky had asked Susan for the attendees for tonight’s birthday party ahead of time. She had stayed up for several nights just to remember the people’s names and identities on the list.

She scoured through her memory and soon remembered who this woman was. Her husband’s family was the second-in-command of the political circle in Apliaria, and she was from a scholarly, well -mannered, and wealthy family.

Susan is just feeling a little uneasy and she’s currently resting in her room. I hope you won’t spread any rumors about Susan.”

“Rumors? Are you fucking kidding us? Someone saw Susan on the bed with a man and they were making love!” a man retorted.
