Chapter 39 I Won’t Abandon Him

• Seeing Wendy Mills’s mother pull a stunt like that, Pierre Cook slipped the door shut while the three of them weren’t looking.
• He wanted to see what Victoria Doyle would choose—cash on the table or the friendship between them.
• As for why this “temporary mother-in-law” was here, Pierre didn’t need to think hard. Sally Quinn must’ve figured he couldn’t even afford rent and told the Mills Family that her old classmate Victoria had taken him in. She must’ve also laid out Victoria’s family situation, and the Mills Family decided to buy Victoria off to kick him out.
