Amara had indeed caught her in a compromising situation with the driver, but there was no hard evidence to back it up. All she had was her word, and that wasn't much to go on.
Amara's lips curled into a sly smile, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "I may not have evidence, but your in-laws could certainly dig sup.

She leaned in close to Elowen, whispering harshly, "What's with your sister? Did her divorce make her this brazen?" "Yeah, she got a bit unhinged after the divorce," Elowen shouted back.

Their words barely settled before the two were laughing together again, leaving Amara clenching her fists slowly. Though she had told herself countless times not to engage with airheads, she couldn't help but feel the sting of their words.

Her gaze was icy, her demeanor calm, as Elowen and Amelia gaped at Finnian disbelief. What was Finnian doing here all of a sudden? "A big falling out?" Finnian's lips curled into a sardonic smile.
