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

Chapter 881: Im just changing clothes, Allison responded casually, lifting the outfit in her hand as proof.

Theres less than an hour before were off the clock, and Ive got dinner plans with Verruckt tonight.

Thought Id try on my date outfit.

Is that against the rules? She said it all with a sly smile, fully aware that Lena had a soft spot for Verruckt.

Each word was chosen to hit a nerve.

Lenas reaction came as no surprise.

She stormed out, her face red with anger.

Whats so special about her anyway? she muttered under her breath as she left.

A couple of minutes later, Allison lifted the blinds again without a care in the world.

The researchers outside exchanged glances, whispering among themselves.

Do you think Alice knows Lena has a thing for Mr.

Shaw? one asked, keeping their voice low.

She knows, another replied.

Lets stay out of it.

Smart thinking, especially since Lenas got a short fuse, someone muttered.

Ten minutes later, Allison pulled the blinds down again.

By this point, no one paid much attention it had become routine.

Lena, on the other hand, tried to convince herself to stay out of it.

Ⱡ₳Ŧ€$ŧ Çн₳þŧëяş 1π ĠalиoνεļŞ.₵Ø₥ Alice was obviously messing with her, and she knew it.

Still, Lena couldnt resist.

She flung the door open yet again.

What exactly are you trying to she started, but Allison cut her off without missing a beat.

I just want to take a nap, Miss Perkins.

Could you stop barging in already? Her tone was deliberately loud, ensuring that the researchers outside could hear every word.

Lena froze, suddenly at a loss for words.

She knew all too well that Alice would hide behind Verruckt again, and shed only end up more frustrated.

Fine! Sleep all you want until Mr.

Shaw gets here! Lena snapped.

Without another word, she stormed out, drained from Allisons constant antics.

The door slammed shut behind her with a loud bang, and Allisons expression hardened.

This time, she didnt bother raising the blinds.

Instead, she tapped her earpiece and spoke to Kellan.

Is everything in place? she asked.

Everythings ready, Kellan replied quickly.

Weve made it into the labs courtyard, but theres heavy patrol near the exits.

We cant stay still; we need to keep moving.

Allison gave a curt nod, even though Kellan couldnt see her.

Timing our escape is critical, she said firmly.

She moved back to the blinds, opening them just enough to peek through.

It didnt take long for Allison to notice Lena sitting back at her desk, her face sour and her eyes deliberately avoiding the office door.
