Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine Read Online Free

Chapter 103: Allisons expression remained impassive.

I cant help you, she said in a flat, almost dismissive tone.

Find someone else who can.

Coltons brow furrowed, the tension in the room rising with her cold reply.

My mother is practically begging you for that medicine, and you make her degrade herself like this! Allison, dont you have any decency left?! Allison barely spared him a glance, her voice laced with indifference.

Youre right.

I lack all sense of manners.

So, Mr.

Stevens, keep an eye on those fingers of yours.

Coltons mouth snapped shut, his expression darkening at the memory of the time Allison had nearly sliced his fingers off, running a blade across his flesh so close he could still feel the chill of it.

Just last night, hed witnessed her effortlessly throw a grown man into a trash bin like he was nothing.

Clearly ruthless and unyielding, Allison wasnt one to bluff.

Her voice dropped to a chilling tone as she continued, Yes, Mrs.

Stevens, youve always been generous.

You once tried to trade a bracelet for an invitation, but I do hope youre not expecting to trade a single earring for life-saving medicine.

Lindy forced a brittle laugh, her composure cracking.

Oh, Allison, such wit.

Ill pay whatever the cost is, to the last penny.

In any other room, Lindy commanded respect with her mere presence.

But here, Allisons sharp words had her seething, her temples throbbing with rage as the tension mounted.

Lindy had naively hoped that Allison might show some compassion, or at least a flicker of the devotion she once had.

Instead, Allison remained distant, colder than ever.

Colton could no longer suppress his fury.

His face twisted as he snapped, Who the hell do you think you are? I dont need you for the medicine! Ill get it myself! Lɒtєѕτ чhɒρτєrѕ ιn gɑl????οvєlѕ.сo???? Allison arched an eyebrow, the faintest glimmer of mockery in her eyes.

Then why have you come to me time and time again, practically begging on your knees? Go get it yourself.

Without waiting for a response, she turned on her heel, clearly done with the conversation.

Wasting another breath on these people was beneath her.

Lindy and Colton stood there, fuming but speechless, as Allison walked away.

Just as she stepped outside, she nearly collided with Melany, who stood rigid, fury simmering behind her eyes.

Allisons gaze sharpened as she hissed, Youd better move.

Smart people know when to step aside.

Melany froze, the memory of Allison handling the drunken man the previous night flashing vividly in her mind.

She instinctively took a few steps back, scrambling for a response but finding none.

Allison, however, didnt even spare her another glance, moving past her as though Melany were no more than an ant.

From inside the villa, the sharp crash of shattering glass echoed through the night Lindy was throwing one of her infamous tantrums again.

Melanys hands balled into tight fists.

She had overheard everything from behind the door.

How dare Lindy insinuate that she was beneath Allison? What enraged her even more was Coltons indifference he hadnt even defended her! Melanys face smoothed into a blank mask, though her thoughts seethed beneath the surface.

It would be better if Lindy suffered… The woman didnt have much time left anyway.

Once Lindy was gone, the entire Stevens family empire would be hers.

Drawing in a steadying breath, Melany pushed her bitterness down and entered the room, a sweet, innocent smile painted on her lips.

Lindy, please dont let Allison upset you.

Shes always been like that.

Lindy, still fuming, spat, I never imagined Allison could turn out this way! After all those expensive things I bought for her, I might as well have thrown them in the trash! Conveniently, she forgot that Allison hadnt taken any of those so-called expensive gifts with her when she left.

Seeing his mother rub her temples in frustration, Colton stepped forward to soothe her.

Mom, dont worry.

Ive done some digging.

Even though Soothing Capsules are hard to find, theres still another way to get them.

A few years back, a virtual-reality game called Hackers World was all the rage.

There are some forums about it on the dark web, and some people post bounties there, including rewards like MDHs capsules.

Im sure I can get some for you! Melany tilted her head, her tone light but laced with hidden intent.

But hasnt Hackers World been offline for years? Of course, the last thing she wanted was for Lindy to actually get her hands on that medicine.

Colton paused, considering.

Dont worry.

Theres word that the original creator is planning a revival.

Its only a matter of time before Hackers World comes back online! .
