Chapter 90 Chaos And Confrontation

His voice, raw with urgency and determination, cut through the rising clamor like a cutter. At that veritably moment, the formerly orderly launch event was fleetly descending into chaos. Laughter and discussion were replaced by right whispers and a palpable pressure that clung to every corner of the room.

Just moments before, she had been about to deliver the initial words that celebrated not only her new business but the long and laborious trip of particular revitalization. Now, with Mr. Callum’s presence brewing like a dark pall over her dreams, the atmosphere was charged with reproach. Mr. Callum, his face flushed with wrathfulness and unbelief, had stormed in just as she was preparing to speak, and his diatribe had burned a delirium among the guests.
• “ Enough is enough! ” Mr. Callum bellowed, his tone roaring over the chatter of shocked bystanders. “ Reyna, how could you — how could you abandon your duty to Alexander and fall into that libelous relationship with Theo? ” His voice quivered with a blend of fury and anguish, and his words sliced through the delicate air of the launch like shards of glass.
