Starting with A Divorce

Chapter 630 Innocent

“I don’t know either, Honey,” Robyn said as she drew closer to Harold, hoping to share his warmth.

Harold eyed her coldly. ’You were acting strange when Ainsley brought up her father’s death. Did you have anything to do with it?”

Robyn shook her head frantically. ’No! What could I have done? He was your brother, and as money-crazed as I am, I’d never stoop so low and kill another man for it!”

Harold assessed her for a long moment, and finally said with a smile, “You’re right. You haven’t done anything at all.”

It was only then that Robyn felt like a weight was lifted off her shoulders. She wrapped her arms around her husband as worry etched upon her face.

It was almost three o ‘clock in the afternoon when Robyn went upstairs and woke Matteo up. “Hurry up and get to the living room. We have guests!”

In the next room, Ainsley poked her head out the door, only for Robyn to say icily, “Stay in your room, Aisy. It’s not as if you know the guests anyway.”

Matteo frowned. “Ainsley is going too. We’re all from the Easton family. It’s only right that we greet the guests together.’

Just as Ainsley was about to refuse, Matteo walked straight over and grabbed her arm, then led her downstairs.

Meanwhile, Harold had been carrying out small talk with one of the guests. Matteo knew who that man was. It was Jett Glover. There was a woman next to him, and she was none other than Waston, who Matteo had not seen for some time.

In the days they had not seen each other, Waston seemed to have grown more gloomy.

Jett glanced at Matteo worriedly and said, “This is how Ms. Glover has been since her return, Mr. Easton. She hardly talks these days, and she’s cooped up in her room all the time. Mr. Glover is worried sick.”

Waston tugged on Jett’s sleeve and urged, “That’s not true, Uncle Jett. I’m perfectly fine in my room.”

Then, she flashed Ainsley and Matteo a smile. ’Hello, Matteo and Ms. Easton.’
