How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue novel Chapter 252

Naylor’s voice carried just enough—loud enough for the two nearest tables to catch every word.

Almost in sync, heads turned toward Jarrod and Elodie, curiosity flickering openly in their eyes.

Sylvie’s expression shifted. She glanced down at Jarrod’s wrist, noting the edge of his watch, then shot a sharp look at Elodie across the table.

So that’s how it is…

Had Elodie really schemed this far?

Naylor himself looked rather conflicted. Matching couple watches? That was laying it on a bit thick.

A guest nearby couldn’t help but tease, “Well, now, isn’t that a coincidence.”

“Isn’t it just?” someone chimed in. “Mr. Silverstein and Ms. Thorne’s watches—I’ve seen that design before. It’s a limited edition for couples, though they do sell them individually. But you two really are something else, showing up like this.”

Another guest quickly waved a hand. “Oh, I’m sure it’s just a fluke. Ms. Thorne must’ve picked it at random. Ms. Fielding probably owns the same watch, just didn’t wear it today, right?”

Sylvie had no choice but to rein in her annoyance toward Elodie. She offered the group a faint, polite smile, letting silence serve as her answer.

Joseph watched the scene unfold, his brows furrowing in concern as he sent a worried glance Elodie’s way.
