Marrying the Man in the Dark (Damien and Cherise) novel Chapter 423

Chapter 423 Maeve’s Vengeful Return

Greg turned around and headed back to the living room. “Please come inside, everyone.”

Tristan’s jaw dropped as he stared in shock at the woman before him; her face was so contorted it barely resembled a human. “What… What is this?”

Old Mr. Lenoir’s frown deepened upon hearing the biting, cold sarcasm.

“That’s enough!” Old Mr. Lenoir bellowed.

Old Mr. Lenoir’s cane struck the ground with a resounding thud. “We haven’t seen each other for so many years!”
