"What?" Corless and Amirah asked at the same time.

They finished their question and immediately glanced at each other.

When Amirah just found out about Corless's affair from twenty years ago, including the fact that he had a child who was now in college, She felt a surge of anger but quickly regained her composure, pondering over the possibility of divorce.

Yet, Amirah decided against it. Divorcing would only open the doors for the other woman to officially join the Ramirez family, potentially handing over everything to outsiders.

Corless, feeling guilty, had been overly generous with Bettie. Should he pass away at this point, Bettie stood to inherit a substantial fortune.
