Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 843: Back to the office.

Releasing her, Verruckt stood, squashing the strange emotions bubbling up inside him.

Perhaps immersing himself in work would clear his mind.

Or else, why would he imagine Allison taming him? Allison nodded, her voice steady.

Okay.

She exhaled softly, relieved.

Finally, she had snagged the escape route code.

Back in the office soon after, Verruckt, ever the workaholic, dove into the mountain of files before him, his face a mask, not once glancing her way.

That suited her just fine.

A moment of calm for Allison was rare.

The peace was shattered when Jareth burst in, urgency etched on his face.

Boss, trouble at Eastshade Dock.

Looks like someone has sneaked in! Eastshade Dock? Kellans name flashed through Allisons mind.

Had Kellan been discovered? Verruckts face hardened like ice.

Ill handle it myself.

Jareths brow furrowed with concern.

But Mr.

Shaw, although your fingerprint is needed there, your injury should be It doesnt matter.

We must make sure no one disrupts us tomorrow.

gⱯlnσν????ℓs․????о???? opens doors to wonder Before Jareth could protest further, Verruckt was already slipping into his leather jacket.

Allisons frown deepened.

Clearly, he was set on confronting Kellan personally.

She had to think fast to aid Kellan.

Since theres nothing left on todays agenda, Ill head back and catch some rest, Allison said, getting to her feet and signaling her intention to leave.

The chaos at the banquet really did a number on my nerves.

Fine, Verruckt replied, handing her a sleek black card.

Theres forty thousand on this.

Treat the extra as a bonus.

Casually accepting the card, Allison responded with genuine appreciation, Thanks, Mr.

Shaw.

Just make sure you come back in one piece.

That was the key for tomorrows plan to go off without a hitch.

Verruckt offered a laid-back Dont worry.

His brief assurance surprisingly left Jareth taken aback.

It seemed Alice and Verruckt had indeed become thick as thieves.

But dwelling on their bond was a luxurythere were bigger fish to fry at the docks.

Once Verruckt and his squad had cleared out, Allison discreetly popped in an earpiece while strolling down the street.

Amya, how are Kellan and the crew doing? There was an urgent undertone in Amyas reply.

Kellan and Gordon got caught red-handed while snagging the cruise ships internal map.
