Chapter 853: "Corrine, do you really think the people of Lyhaton have not noticed? By punishing the Beckers so publicly, he is not just avenging Corrine-he is elevating her status. Ralph is not an old fool. He sees everything. And yet, even knowing Ralph's methods, Nate still dared to act so openly. If that is not arrogance, what is?"

Andromache gave him a sideways glance, then casually picked up a white rose from the vase. She brought it close, taking in its scent as she spoke in a slow, deliberate tone. "Someone will lose their cool soon enough. It doesn't matter who makes the first move. All I have to do is sit back and enjoy the outcome." She wondered-now that Nate had a weakness, could he still be as ruthless as he once was?

She almost looked forward to seeing Ralph and Nate go head to head.

But was Corrine really worth all this trouble? The content is on со novelenglish.net!
