THE TRUE AND THE FALSE KATHERINE Murmurs suddenly arose near me.
| felt Elliots arm grow slightly tense.
| tried not to jump to conclusions, but as that beautiful voice drew closer, the woman sang a ballad filled with
passion, as if meant for a forbidden lover, and her gray eyes casually searched through the crowduntil they
locked onto aman.
Intensely, without much pretense, that striking singer, the so-called Zafiro, seemed to be dedicating her love
song to Elliot.
«Oh, Brenda is bold.
Look at her, not even respecting the man's wife being right there...
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt.Pft, honestly, thats an open secret.
| dont even know why the Duke brought her...
To humiliate her, obviously...
Swhispered words reachedfrom behind.
| lifted my chin and glanced at Elliot from the corner of my eye, assessing his reaction.
He sipped from his glass, not looking at Brenda, who now seemed completely assured of herself.
She was his mistress.
He had broughtto this party where his lover waswho, on top of it all, was now making her way through the
crowd, singing her romantic nonsense, directly dedicating it to him right in my face.
Honestly, | felt utterly ridiculous.
Thad never been in a situation like this before.
It was clear we were the ---- center of attention.
Athousand possible reactions ran through my mind.
Truthfully, all 1 wanted was to pull away from Elliot and leave.
But no, | would endure this with grace, because | wasnt about to give that shameless whore the satisfaction of
seeingdefeated, crushed beneath her heel.
Iwas the wife herewithout happiness, without love, or whatever else but the title was mine, and no mistress was
going to challengefor it.
Thad suffered half my life and buried my sister to secure this placel wouldnt hand it over to her! | looked at her
coldly and didnt move away from Elliot.
| waited for her to approach.
The crowd parted as they hummed along to the song, shifting aside to give her space to continue her
performance, aimlessly.
Elliot said nothing either, acting as if everything was normal, even chatting quietly with a man beside him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmCausing a scene wouldnt be wise, but | truly hoped he wouldnt humiliatein front of everyone.
The singers gray, smoky-shadowed eyes met mine.
Her glossy red lips moved as her throat vibrated with high-pitched notes.
The wretched woman sang beautifully, to make matters worse.
«lI love you beyond distance, beyond those who judge us without knowing our deepest feelings...
Damn miserable bitchhow does she not choke on her own venom?! She reached out a hand into the air.
