Chapter 173 Teresa’s face was set in a stern frown, her sigh heavy with disappointment. Yvonne looked at the two of them, a united front of indignation, and found it so absurd she couldn’t help but laugh. “What did I say that was wrong? I was just telling the truth,”
Chapter 172 Matthew’s face fell, and he quickly tried to explain. “Yvonne, please, just let me explain. I honestly didn’t know it was you who used your settlement money to give me my startup capital. I always thought… I thought that money came from Queena. I was only trying to
