An Impossible Marriage novel Chapter 150

Chapter 150

Eventually, Leila and an elite from the design department got assigned to attend the contract signing. The two departed to Lewis Corporation that afternoon. Once they left, a tattler could not help but blurt out, “Margaret, you’re Christopher’s lawful wife. Aren’t you jealous that some other woman is having a meal with your husband?”

Margaret did not even raise her head. “Why should I be jealous? A dog will always be loyal to its owner.”
