Well then. Since he’d come to her doorstep on his own, she figured she might as well confront this so called kingpin of Cedar and see what he was really after.

Outside the construction site, Devin stood smack in the middle of the gathering crowd, wearing a smug, shameless grin

him, his fool of a son was decked out in a wedding suit, waving dopily at anyone who looked his way

th the father-son pair, Devin had brought along a group of local residents. They were all murmuring among themselv fingers toward the project grounds.

e she is! That woman right there-she spent the night with Brett in the bridal suite! She’s part of the Hardy family now a thinks she can just walk away?!”

The moment Riley showed up at the entrance, Devin spotted her. He thrust a finger in her direction and started yelling

His simple-minded son joined in, hollering, “Wife! Wife!” as he stretched a clumsy hand toward Riley, trying to grab her

Riley trembled with fury.

How dare this old man twist the story like that and publicly trash her name?

She’d expected Devin to use last night’s incident against her, but she never imagined he could sink this low.

“Devin, cut the crap!” Riley forced her anger down and shot back sharply. “You’re the one who slipped something into our drink during the negotiations yesterday! And now you’re turning this around on me? Spreading lies about my reputation? I have noth to do with your son! This is straight-up slander-I’ll sue you for this!”

“Riley, what… what is going on?” Anne’s voice came from behind her, shaky with disbelief.

She’d seen the contract too.

But Riley told herself to stay calm.

Just as she was about to fire back, Devin pushed even further.

‘Ms. Harper, a person’s word is their bond!” Devin shook his head, putting on a pained expression. “Now that you’re part of the Hardy family, why not just settle down with Brett and live a proper life? Isn’t that right, folks?”

A few voices in the crowd echoed in agreement.

Riley could almost taste blood in her mouth.

She couldn’t help but regret her earlier decision.
