The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 725

“You don’t need to come for her. She knows I’m her savior, so why isn’t she here herself?”

Leonie’s smiling delivery made her words sound passive-aggressive to Connor.

“Because my aunt is busy, of course. Did she not tell you? She’s about to marry my uncle. Everyone in Greenvale knows they’re having one ceremony in Starfall City and another back here during the winter holidays.

“Isn’t it obvious why she isn’t here? They’ve already left for Starfall City. It’s a shame, really. A real shame you’re injured, or you’d definitely be invited to the celebration. I heard you were her childhood sweetheart. I’ve heard of a once-in-a-lifetime love, but a once-in-a-blue-moon kind of thing? That’s a new one on me.”

As Leonie’s taunts grew sharper, even Connor’s friends started to look uncomfortable.

But Connor wasn’t one to be trifled with. Instead of getting angry at her ridicule, he replied with a sinister calm, “At least I get the ‘blue moon’ title. It means I still hold a place in her heart. So, they went back to Starfall City to get married? Good for them. What does it matter? They can get married, and they can also get divorced.”

Leonie gasped, shaking her head vehemently. “Don’t you dare jinx them! My aunt and uncle are deeply in love. You can keep dreaming for the rest of your life, but it’ll never happen.”

Seeing them so caught up in their argument, Connor’s friends exchanged a look.

“Miss Everhart, perhaps you could watch over Connor for us? We’ve got some things to take care of, so we’ll be heading out.”

Leonie turned to Connor. “Don’t you have any other girlfriends? Call one of them over. I don’t have time for this.”

Connor was fuming. His friends must have lost their minds to leave him with this woman.

“Other than your aunt, I don’t have any other girlfriends,” he snapped. “Tell her to come take care of me.”

Leonie rolled her eyes. “In your dreams. I’ll stay for one hour, tops. If your friends aren’t back by then, you’re on your own. If you kick the bucket, don’t blame me.”
