Chapter 381 Reminiscing the Past

Whitney clearly remembered the day when both of them were on a date in a restaurant. Although it was gloomy, it didn’t rain. She had poisoned Douglas and allowed him to sleep in the arms of a burly man while he was unconscious. When he woke up, he was faced with a swarm of reporters.

Because of that, the shares of the Lane Family crashed and Douglas’ mother was so exasperated that she was bedridden. Since then, her health worsened due to the long-term effects of stress.
