Chapter 134 His Sister-n-law Ch2

• The breakfast table is too small for secrets.
• The sun’s just breaking through the wide bay windows of the Hale family’s country estate — sunlight kissing the silverware, glinting off Becca’s diamond engagement ring as she gestures too wide, laughs too loud. She’s perched on Sebastian’s right side, half on his lap like she owns the throne she’s so desperate to wear.
• Franny sits opposite them. Same table, same smile frozen on her lips, same coffee cup held in both hands like if she squeezes it tight enough, the lie from last night might stay buried under the steam.
