Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 240

Indeed, Olivia simply couldn't hold a candle to Janetta, who had not only brains but beauty as well. She might not be a classic stunner, but she definitely had more looks than Olivia.

However, Janetta had one flaw – she was short-sighted. Perhaps that's why she chose Olivia as her bestie in the first place.

I sighed, realizing that I was no different, blindly trusting Marissa Collin, only to be stabbed in the back when she gained power.

"Look at the wives, they're frugal, scrimping and saving for their husbands. But the mistresses are draped in gold, indulging in the finest food and wine! We should all treat ourselves better!" another woman chimed in.

Catherine, arms crossed, agreed, "You're right. Some say mistresses are nothing but younger versions of wives. Regardless of how unattractive the other woman may be, even if she looks like a broken plate, if there's an opening, the cheating men will take it!"

I nearly burst out laughing. Catherine's statement was harsh, but true. I glanced around and realized that among the ladies present, only Olivia had been the other woman.

"Men often cheat to escape their own loneliness. Affairs are easy, quick, and thrilling. That's why infidelity isn't love, and it's just cheap entertainment!" Catherine declared, then sighed, "And it doesn't matter who the other woman is."

"Why not?" someone asked, confused. "You mean, he would sleep with anyone?"

"Not anyone, but the cycle continues. You're with him now, but who knows who'll be next? Just watch and see!" Catherine said with conviction.

Everyone was excited by her words, except for Olivia, whose face became increasingly pale.

“He won’t care if your reputation is ruined. You can't even wash it off if you want to, and you'll be sick for the rest of your life! If you're involved in killing a man's wife, you're gonna end up just like the one who died a few days ago!” Catherine mentioned Marissa, and Olivia's face went completely white!

Just then, a commotion at the entrance caught our attention. We all looked over to see a crowd of people making way for someone.

To my surprise, I saw Ronan in the crowd, or should I say, Bennett!

Why is he here?
