Chapter 1279

[ 663 words ]

“They really can’t let each other go, can they?”

Claire honestly didn’t know what else to say.

She didn’t particularly care how Cindy and York were living their lives.

But since Shirley clearly enjoyed spilling the tea, Claire was happy to listen.

“Cindy has clashed with York’s new fiancée a few times, and she gets publicly humiliated every single time. But she still clings to York.”

“York is absolute trash, too. He actually said that since he broke off the engagement, he was letting Cindy stay in that apartment temporarily.”

“He called it compensation.”

“He told her she could stay as long as she wanted.”

“Until she eventually decided to move out on her own.”

What the hell!

Claire had the sudden urge to curse.

That was just…

Shameless!

“And his fiancée is just okay with that?” Claire asked in surprise.

“His fiancée…..” Shirley smiled, clearly a fan of the woman in question. “She saw Cindy deliberately trying to start drama every time and got completely sick of it.”

“She announced publicly that she only wanted York for his looks and was just using him for his genes.”

“She told Cindy to stop being so paranoid and to drop the theatrical acts.”

“She said she didn’t have time to play games with a manipulative homewrecker.”

Pfft-

Claire couldn’t hold back a laugh.

York’s fiancée was certainly an interesting character.

Usually, straightforward people ended up getting played when dealing with manipulative schemers like Cindy.

But this girl clearly wasn’t afraid of someone like her at all.

Because she held the absolute upper hand.

She didn’t give a damn about York in the first place, which meant she had zero interest in fighting Cindy for his affection.

That was the difference between someone secure and someone desperate.

“How are Octavia and Fallon holding up in prison?”

Claire had zero interest in Cindy’s life.

At the end of the day, Cindy was just another victim in this mess, same as her.

But Octavia, Fallon, and Latham-those three were entirely guilty.

If they hadn’t been tangled up in

extramarital affairs and a toxic love triangle the babies would have never been switched in the fest

·wn

place.

“Latham… I mean, no one is checking in on Octavia in prison. I heard she’s having a miserable time.”

“And Fallon, since she was basically convicted of human trafficking, is getting it just as bad. She gets beat up in the Women’s facility all the time.” . FindNovel.net

“Plus…” Shirley leaned in, having heard the gossip from her friends.

“Things happen in those facilities when people are locked up for too long. They get lonely!”

Even though Octavia and Fallon looked haggard from the stress of being locked up, they had great natural features.

They were gorgeous and had taken excellent care of themselves.

The moment they walked in, the tougher inmates had set their sights on them.

Shirley wasn’t sure if she should even be sharing this level of detail with Claire.

She stammered through the explanation, but Claire easily pieced together what was happening to them inside.

Without anyone putting money in their commissary or bribing the guards to look the other way, life behind bars was bound to be hell.

They were two fragile women who still had their charm…

But Claire felt no sympathy for them.

When it came down to it, Latham was the ultimate villain of the story.

If he hadn’t slept around and brought outside mistresses into the fold, none of this tragedy would have ever unfolded.

Whatever miserable state Latham found himself in now, Claire felt he completely deserved it. Frankly, he deserved worse.

As for Lance-

Claire didn’t actually hate him.

Even though his obsessive infatuation with her was sickening, it had inadvertently led to something good.

If he hadn’t noticed that she wasn’t a biological James, secretly launched an investigation, and eventually tracked down Cindy, Claire would stiff be trapped in that toxic household.

In a twisted way, Lance had actually done her a massive favor.

It was just a shame that his actions had torn the family apart.

Claire had no intention of seeking further revenge, simply because the only person

in that family who had ever truly loved her was Pandora.

“Is Pandora out in the country, or is she in the city?”
