But Tessa acted as if she hadn’t heard a single word and turned to the butler. "See them out."
And just like that, Jaxon and Arabelle were thrown out of the Montgomery household.
Humiliated for the first time, Arabelle exploded in fury at the gate. "What kind of shitty Montgomery family is this? They don’t even know what’s good for them!"
Jaxon stared at her as if seeing someone he no longer recognized. She used to be gentle and kind.
Realizing she’d crossed a line, Arabelle quickly clung to his arm, her voice turning sweet and pitiful.
"Jaxon, I was only worried the Montgomerys might be fooled by Liora. Don’t forget, she’s always tried to ruin what we have. Maybe she’s lying again, just to get your attention."
Jaxon seemed to consider it for a moment. "If she’s really lying, the Montgomery family will find out sooner or later. You healed my legs; I trust you, naturally."
Arabelle clung to his arm, but behind his back, her expression slowly turned cold.
