Mason Morgan's mouth twitched, but he kept it shut.
Holly Sinclair glared coldly at the fuming Evelyn Morgan, her eyes flashing with a bone-chilling light. "Evelyn Morgan, from this moment on, don't you dare come looking for attention from me again. And don't you ever let me hear another bad word about my daughter from your mouth, or else..."
She left the threat hanging, but its meaning was unmistakable.
Every word she spoke was laced with a sinister hostility, radiating a pressure just as terrifying as Tristan Sterling's.
Her daughter was her bottom line.
For the past three years, Evelyn Morgan had tried to sideline and harass her, both openly and behind her back. Holly had always dismissed her as a mere buffoon, not worth her time.
But now, she had dared to insult her dear Candice...
This was the last straw!
Holly's slap shocked everyone.
Gossip is human nature.
And so, all eyes turned toward them.
Including the Pierce family.
