“Who was it?”

The tone of the voice was far from what Christine knew. Her heart jumped and she trefnbled at those words due to fear, but she hurriedly composed herself.

“W-Who was what?” Although she looked like she composed herself, those demonic eyes that were staring at her didn’t allow her confidence to return.

“Who is the young Miss?”

Christine’s eyes widened but she quickly pretended like she wasn’t surprised, however, that flitting change didn’t escape Jeslyn’s eyes.

“I don’t know what you are talking about.”

“She was at my wedding, was she not?”

Jeslyn watched as a glint flashed through Christine’s eyes and knew that she was right.

Or is there another reason why the young Miss did that?
