Genevieve pulled Lucas aside, her voice dropping to a whisper. "Is that who I think it is?" she asked, surprise laced in her voice.

Lucas sighed. "Yes, mum. That's Janette."

Genevieve shook her head. "No way! Janette isn't that outspoken." she said, recalling the way Janette spoke to her a few seconds ago.

Years ago, she had also convinced Lucas to get a divorce since she couldn't give birth to a child. At that time, Janette had always tried to win her love, but she pushed her away and accepted Bella instead. She had convinced Lucas to divorce her, not until Bella turned out to be a manipulator and a liar.

Still, she didn't feel sorry for everything she did to the lady. She felt any woman that couldn't give birth to a child shouldn't be taken seriously and should be shown their places - out of their husbands lives.

She couldn't believe that same Janette just acted like she didn't know her. Not just that, the lady had the guts to say they have no informal relationship.

    23.“Liam, what is the meaning of this?” Janette asked and she walked further into the house.She had returned from the hospital only to see Liam dressed in suit, holding a bouquet of flowers with the house decorated in lights and flowers.

    025.Axel quickly pulled away from the kiss and placed his hand on her shoulders. “Cat eyes, you’re not yourself.”Amber straddled him, her eyes heating up with desire. “I’m perfectly fine. Just showing how much I want you, that’s all.” she reached to kiss him again, but he placed his index finger on her lips.It was taking every bit of self control in him not to touch her right now.

He needed to know his place anyway.“Jane,” he called, his voice low and unsteady. “It’s really true? Tell me he is joking.” he looked at Liam, who had a smirk on his face.“Why do you need to know whether it’s true or not?

Why did I lie to her?”The memories flooded his mind: Janette's laughter, her smile, her tears. He remembered the way she used to look at him, with love and adoration. Now, that same look was re
