Chapter 218
A name list of your suitors.” Winston looked amused.
Everyone was dumbfounded at Winston’s announcement. Even Tatiana, who had impeccable
manners, dropped her utensils in shock. Silas almost spat out his coffee and was coughing with a
red face.
“Winston!” Alyssa sprung up with a sharp frown. “You’re taking revenge against me, right? That’s
not very gentlemanly!”
“Revenge is sweet.” He took a casual sip of his coffee. “Anyway, why would I take revenge on my
daughter? I know you’re low profile, but the news of the divorce will spread in our circle soon.
