What kind of woman has Joshua Hughes not seen, yet he happens to fancy a widow whose husband died right after their wedding?
"Miss Jane, why don't you go inside and attend the banquet?" Victoria Diaz's indifferent tone carried a trace of obvious ridicule.
Does this kind of question need to be asked? Avery Jane lowered her head, unwilling to say more.
Of course, she couldn't go in like this; in this attire, wouldn't she scare everyone to death once she entered, thinking she had encountered some criminal?
"But you'd better stay outside. Otherwise, people might think something happened to you. Those in the know might say you're having fun with President Hughes, while those ignorant might think something bad happened to you. It's not good to have such misunderstandings."
Victoria Diaz's words pierced her heart like a knife, as if even her blood had stopped flowing.
She's just a woman without the ability to fight back; is she to blame for being unable to resist?
