Abandoned by All I Took It All Back novel Chapter 387

“Your restaurant is on the brink of closing. If we work together, I have a way to clear The Tasting Room’s name.”

Seeing West’s refusal, Marjorie had no choice but to dangle the bait. Beneath her flawless makeup, her eyes held a subtle, calculating glint.

Her goal wasn't to help The Tasting Room, but to get close to West. That was the only way to make her plan a reality.

Sure enough, at Marjorie’s words, West’s head snapped up. A complex expression crossed his face as he asked tentatively, “What way? You know The Tasting Room was framed?”

Marjorie lifted her chin. “Sit down. Let’s talk.”

After Janina got back from her trip, she’d told her family about running into Marjorie, warning them about how much she had changed and advising them to steer clear of her if they saw her.

West finally understood what Janina had meant. The Marjorie before him now was a world away from the person she used to be.

Wanting to get more information out of her, West entered the room, but he took a precaution, leaving the door wide open.

“You know who framed The Tasting Room?”

West’s directness made Marjorie laugh. “You really think highly of me. I know your character; you’d never do something like that. As for the culprit…”

Marjorie paused deliberately, then broke into a bright smile. “I have a few leads, but no hard evidence yet. I’ve already got people investigating. I’m sure we’ll have results soon.”
