Chapter 283: Unfortunate Coincidence

Keira's eyes dropped, her gaze a shield against the chill.

Indeed, she had to play the part of not wanting a divorce and being utterly compliant with Howard and Howard's mother, but that didn't mean she would let herself be so maltreated!

Cindy entering the family as boldly as she did was utterly shameless.

She looked directly at Howard. "The contract Mary gave you today, it hasn't been stamped by her company yet, has it?"

These words made Howard stand up abruptly. "Keera, what are you implying? Are you threatening me?"

Keira still kept her gaze lowered. "No, it's just that Mary has always had clear principles, and she's been finding you disagreeable for quite some time. If she learns that you brought Cindy to the house, I fear it could cause a lot of trouble. Howard, you've been keeping a mistress out there, and I've endured it, but don't push me too far..."

Howard had indeed brought Cindy home to test Keera's boundaries.
