Chapter 752

She’d never felt this humiliated in her entire life.

In Vera’s moment of helplessness, unsure how to respond to them, Natalie suddenly spoke up with a smile. “Ladies, please don’t bother Mrs. Harding with all these questions. Laney and I are very good friends, and I happen to know a thing or two about the issue.”

Upon hearing Natalie’s words, Vera’s heart skipped a beat.
