This was the first time Cynthia had spoken so much to Yvonne. She swirled the wine in her glass, took a sip, and continued, “Besides, Noah's marriage is a complete disaster. It would have ended in divorce sooner or later, even without my interference. I'm just speeding up the inevitable.”
Yvonne listened and nodded in agreement.
It was true that Noah and Karina were unlikely to last, but that didn't give Cynthia a free pass to steal him away.
“If Noah and Karina were happily married, would you still try to take him?” Yvonne asked suddenly.
Cynthia let out a sudden laugh. “I'd still go after him. That's the kind of person I am. When I want something, I'll fight for it until I'm black and blue, but I will never let go.”
After saying this, she took another sip of wine, her eyes narrowing as she studied Yvonne intently.
“Honestly, I'm very curious about why Bennett married you.”
Yvonne replied, “Didn't you say I look a lot like his ex-girlfriend? Maybe he really does just see me as a substitute.”
Cynthia scoffed. “The Bennett I know isn't the kind of man to play those substitute games. I've always thought he and I were the same—we love with every fiber of our being. After the first Yvonne died, he should have spent the rest of his life alone. But then he suddenly fell for you. Sometimes, I almost wonder if you've been possessed by her spirit…”
Yvonne's hand, which was reaching for some food, trembled so violently that she almost dropped her fork.
Cynthia watched her reaction with a thoughtful expression just as Director Davis and Sandra walked back in.
“What are you two talking about?” Director Davis asked casually.
“We were just discussing Mr. Bennett Thompson's late ex-girlfriend,” Yvonne said, raising an eyebrow.
