Chapter 138 -The Two Enemies
- Cynthia Dion:
- That's when I began to recall everything that transpired in the mansion. I was duped by Mr. Holt, and he made it abundantly clear that expecting sympathy from him was a lost cause. He had no grounds to be irate with me over a partnership that, to his knowledge, was solely aimed at safeguarding my own interests. He blew it out of proportion, behaving as though I had cheated on him. He persistently harassed me and manipulated me into taking this relationship seriously.
- The sole reason I endured his mistreatment in silence was because my sister, Flora, should not have to endure the same ordeal as I did.
