Chapter 418

Daphne's POV

The envelope was thick. A cream stock with black ink. My name was written like I was still someone they had to be polite to. Mrs. Daphne Thorne. As if that title sat in the same room as Mrs. Kaelen Lancaster.

I opened it at the kitchen counter with my coffee gone cold. Finnian was in the other room on a call. The house was quiet in that expensive way that still did not feel like mine.
