Chapter 272

"Zach isn't with you?" Serena's gaze swept past Wendy's shoulder, landing on the space behind her—casual, indifferent. She was just here to test Wendy. If she revealed her true intentions too soon, she wouldn't get any answers at all. Wendy's expression darkened. How could Serena still be so calm? Was she really so unconcerned about Ruth's life that she could turn around and look for Zach instead? "Zach went grocery shopping. We're meeting up later for dinner." Then, she suddenly sneered. "Aren't you already married to Hugh? Since you're someone else's wife now, you shouldn't lurk around waiting for another man." Zach was not with her. That meant Wendy was free to act alone. Then that mysterious figure at the hospital earlier… Serena's eyes drifted toward Wendy's shopping bags, her lips curling into a faint smile. "Asking about another man's whereabouts is still better than spending his money." Wendy's fingers tightened around the bags, instinctively shifting them behind her.
