Whats She Overheard in Her Own Marriage novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129

Silas smiled and accepted her birthday wishes, watching as the mother and daughter got into the

car.

The moment Silas turned around, his smile still perfectly in place, he saw Finnian standing frozen exactly where he had been.

His face was completely unreadable under the dim light of the porch.

“What’s wrong, Cousin?” Silas asked, wearing a look of pure, innocent feigned ignorance.

Finnian grabbed a glass of amber liquor off a passing tray. He stared Silas down for a long moment, downed the drink in one gulp, and slammed the glass down. “Nothing. Happy Birthday.”

With that, Finnian turned and strode away.

Remembering what he had said the other night, Kaia’s heart felt like it had been plunged into ice

water.

He had said the Sanders family couldn’t just have Brynlee. It seemed he had already made up his mind to have another healthy child with Noelle for the sake of the family.

In the end, she didn’t send anything. She locked her phone and headed back to Veridian Future.

Over the next couple of weeks, Veridian successfully secured six major projects. To reward the staff for their hard work, Silas decided to host a dinner for everyone.

Kaia naturally couldn’t refuse the company celebration. The atmosphere at the upscale private restaurant was relaxed and lively.
