Revenge Wears My Ring novel Chapter 193

The man who dominated the business world with his icy composure, the man bound to her by nothing more than a cold, impersonal contract—

He had actually walked straight into such an obvious trap, just because of some trouble she might have caused?

How was that possible?

They were married in name only, nothing more.

But what unsettled her even more was… that accident.

She could still feel the lingering sensation on her lips.

Cool and soft, with the warmth and unique scent that belonged to him.

Gwyneth touched her lips.

Back then… was he fully conscious, or just dazed?
