Chapter 168 Retaliation By The Divorced Heiress

• Bethany's meticulously applied makeup froze. Her heart gave way to terror. “Also, are we that close? Don’t you think it’s wrong for you to hug me like this?” With a stern expression, Ryan withdrew his arm. Mr. Hoffman, I apologize. You’re my brother’s close friend; thus, I think of you as my brother too. I have no other intentions. Bethany quickly explained who she was out of fear that Ryan would despise her.
