Second Wife

"Diana! Where have you been?" Gabi glared at her elder daughter with a cold look. "I thought you would take care of your sister while I will go and make connections. Do you have any idea how important this is for our family?" She stood up and held her hands tightly while her voice was a low scream so that other tables could not hear them.

She was sitting in the party hall with Duchess Clam Stone and stood up to talk to Diana as soon as she entered the hall. Her eyes are full of coldness and hatred.

"Go to Hazel and see if she needs anything. Tend to her Diana, she is your sister. You used to be so close!" Diana nodded. Not because her mother had commanded her, but she had a feeling that Cotlin would return here.

That moment had left her breathless. She hated herself for still enjoying the kiss when it had no depth.
