Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 384

Finding an outlet for his frustration, he couldn’t stop himself. “And here I thought you were so high and mighty. Turns out it was all an act. You pretended you were too good to visit Seth, but look at you now.” He sneered. “You only dared to come today because you knew Bianca was out of town, didn’t you?”

Noreen’s eyes were cold. “You really should have been a screenwriter.”
