Chapter 29 “It seems I’ve overestimated your kindness. After all, your son cheated first, yet you splash water on your daughter-in-law. Such a bizarre mother-in-law is indeed rare.” With each word Damon uttered, Cindy’s expression darkened further. In the end, it turned icy. “Damon, this is a family matter.
