Chapter 43

Joseph was dumbstruck, staring at Vivienne without uttering a word.

She had been hiding behind the door, and he hadn’t noticed!

What did it mean that she had slipped him a aphrodisiac?

As if to answer his silent question, Vivienne’s grin widened. “What happened yesterday was payback for what you did years ago, Joseph. You weren’t wrongly accused!”

Her expression was surprisingly calm, not a trace of anger on her face.

But that made her all the more devilish.

“You!” Joseph pointed at Vivienne, “You’re,nothing but trouble!”

“Enough! Big bro!” Dorian suddenly roared. “Evelyn is your sister–in–law, and you did that to her. Now you dare to insult Vivienne. Do you think I wouldn’t cut ties with you?”

He was filled with regret.

Utter regret!

As a result, he had completely neglected his family.

“Get out of my house. From now on, you’re not welcome here,” Dorian said, pointing towards the door.

He wanted to seek justice for Vivienne’s mother, but without evidence, even calling the police wouldn’t help if Joseph just denied everything.
