Chapter 2 - The Stolen Pearls
Clara stumbled backward, clutching the divorce papers and her crying daughter. Her world was violently collapsing.
That was when Chloe stepped out from the shadow of the large brick porch.
Chloe was a stunning, blonde woman in her late twenties. She wore a chic, perfectly tailored white outfit that contrasted sharply with Clara’s casual green sweater. She walked down the driveway with the confident, arrogant stride of a woman who believed she had just won the ultimate prize.
She stepped right beside Julian, sliding her arm possessively through his.
Clara’s tear-filled eyes widened as she looked at Chloe’s face. Dangling from the mistress’s ears were a pair of distinct, vintage pearl earrings. They were Clara’s earrings—a cherished anniversary gift she had been searching for all week. Julian hadn't just given his mistress his heart; he had literally raided his wife’s jewelry box to impress her.
Chloe looked down at the crying mother and her two terrified children. A cruel, practiced, highly condescending smirk spread across her flawless face.
