The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

"My son has taken a liking to Ms. Carrie. He has been pestering me for a long time and has insisted that he will marry no one but her. Regardless of the cost, he wants to make her his wife." Mila sighed lightly.

"Alas, my son's stubbornness is just like his father's. He is my only son, so I must help him obtain whatever he wants, no matter the cost. So, Mayor Solloway, be a good man for once, and please fulfill my son's wish to be with Ms. Carrie."

"The election is next spring, isn't it?" Mila's tone was light and casual.

Mayor Solloway shuddered violently.
