Snatched a Billionaire to be My Husband novel Chapter 22

Chapter 22 His Questions

However, there was no sign of Byron's car outside. Jane did notice a car she didn't know, but she couldn't be sure if Byron was inside, as the dark-tinted windows were tightly closed.

Eventually, Jane figured that Byron wouldn't be in that car. If he were, why would Carter have stepped out to handle his personal matters? He should be staying with his boss.

Jane withdrew her gaze, feeling a tinge of disappointment.

Meanwhile, the shopping assistant had already processed the payment and handed the receipt and card to Carter. "Thank you very much, sir."

Carter nodded slightly at Cora before walking out of the store.

Cora contemplated whether she should catch up with Carter and return the shoes to him. Just then, Mia approached, "Are you with Carter? Does Eason know about this?"

"It's none of Eason's business who I'm with. Nor your business. Stay out of it," Cora retorted, but didn't answer clearly who she was really with.

Yet, in Mia's eyes, Cora's response seemed to confirm her relationship with Carter.

"I wondered why you agreed to break up with Eason so easily! Turns out, you've already found someone else," Mia sneered.

"I'm not shameless, unlike you," Cora calmly replied.

"Who's shameless?!" Mia grew angry and rushed forward.

Cora dodged aside, "You heard me."

Seeing the conflict about to escalate in public, Jane quickly intervened, grabbing Mia. "We should go! You have a skincare appointment, remember? Didn't you want to be the most beautiful bride-to-be?"

Jane offered an apologetic smile to Cora and Sally before turning around and taking Mia away.

"You handled that well, Cora! I'm proud of you," Sally praised, making faces at the retreating figures of Mia and Jane.

Cora awkwardly smiled. In truth, she never liked engaging in arguments, and her parents didn't approve of it either.

But when pushed to the edge, one had to fight back. Besides, Mia had found trouble with her way too many times, and she couldn't tolerate it any longer.
