Never Mistake a Queen for a Lapdog novel Chapter 711

Evelyn Fowler was Evelyn's full name.

There was no way Evelyn could have afforded to pay that much rent. The answer was obvious.

Sophia was still asking what was going on.

Noreen's mind was already reeling. "Don't worry about the lease. This place is rented for another twenty years."

"What? That long?"

Noreen grabbed her jacket and headed for the door. Sophia asked where she was going, but Noreen didn't answer, as if she hadn't heard.

She drove straight to the Harcourt residence. But when she arrived at the gate, she hesitated. If she went in now, she would shatter the peace she had built. She had fought so hard to pull herself out of that swamp. She didn't want to—couldn't—disrupt that fragile tranquility.

In the next instant, Noreen started the car and drove away, as if she had never been there at all.

On the day of Winrich's relocation party, it seemed like every prominent figure in Rivercrest City had come to offer their congratulations. The venue was bustling. Noreen saw many old friends, like Healy Naylor and Carman Holt.

Strangely, Carman had come alone. Sophia had explicitly invited both him and his wife.

But that was their personal business, so Noreen didn't ask.

She was surprised to see Padgett Novak. It had been a year, and he looked even more like a seasoned official. She'd heard he'd been promoted again. She'd also heard he was still single.
