Chapter 55 Family Portrait

As Caroline’s gaze fixated on Evan’s cold and elegant face, disturbing images of him and Daniella having sex flashed through her mind. The mixture of heartache and disgust overwhelmed her.

She swiftly raised her hand, slapping away his outstretched hand, unable to contain her mocking

Evan scoffed in response. “You presented me with a gift as soon as I returned from my trip.”

Caroline couldn’t help but scoff at the recollection of Scott’s behavior outside Villa Rossa.
