Chapter 103 She’s Been Lying to You All Along

With that, Moore collapsed into Idris’s arms, crying so hard it would melt 

anyone’s heart

Idris gently patted her back, his voice rough with emotion. It’s okay, it’s okay. Don’t be scared.” 

The guests who had come to celebrate with the Youngs gathered around, drawn in by the ruckus. They watched in stunned silence as the two soaked figures embraced tightly

Meanwhile, whispers started to spread among the crowd

Isn’t that the Scottseldest daughter? What’s she doing so close to the Youngsheir? And why are they holding each other like that?” 

Wait, isn’t that Mrs. Young still standing over there?” 

Idris could hear the whispers all around. He scooped up Moore, determined to get her out of there

As they walked past me, Moore’s grip on my arm was sudden and fierce, her eyes blazing with a mix of fury and desperation. She looked so lost, yet so defiant

Idris paused, his gaze falling on our clasped hands. His brow creased slightly.Moore, let go,he said firmly

Moore’s eyes, red and unyielding, locked onto mine. She was as stubborn as a kid refusing to budge. No, I won’t!”

My throat felt scratchy, and suddenly, I could not find the words to speak

Moore’s voice cut through the air, sharp and accusing as she gripped my arm. Yvette, come on, tell him now that he’s right here. Are you pregnant or not? Is there a baby, his baby, inside you?”

I bit my l*p, fighting the ache in my chest, and shot Moore a frosty look. Shut up, I said, my voice low and steady
