CHAPTER 22

~Zara's POV~

Daddy's house

Who is this strange woman? 

It hit me like a ton of bricks—this boy had no clue who I was. And neither did Zoe, based on the look of utter confusion on her face.

Before I could respond, Zoe straightened, her face contorting into a mocking smile. "Oh, I see. You're just one of those women, aren't you? Playing house while the real family's away and hoping to get into your boss's bed."

I froze, her words slicing through me like a cold blade. 

Anger surged in my chest, but I clenched my fists beneath the table, determined not to show weakness. 

A simple smile that showed how unaffected I was by her remarks formed on my lips.
