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

Chapter 38: At least I had a wonderful night with him, unlike someone so unattractive and even disgusting that even the person they like is repulsive, Allison remarked with a faint, sarcastic smile.

You could have at least given us a heads-up about your wedding date.

After all, its such an ill-fated day, hardly ideal for venturing out, she continued, her voice dripping with disdain.

Melanys anger flared, and even Colton was taken aback by Allisons demeanor.

Well, Allison! Youve really outdone yourself these past three years! he yelled.

Kellan, who had been absently playing with a cat, seemed contemplative at Allisons words.

He furrowed his brow, recalling the woman from that night who had treated him as nothing more than a gigolo.

Melany, struggling to keep her anger in check, forced a smile so tight that her nails nearly drew blood.

I didnt realize you had such little regard for propriety.

But discussing such matters so openly is unseemly.

Those who dont know any better might think youre the type of woman who flits from one man to another.

If you ever wish to find a good man… Melany watched Kellans face closely, noting a shadow of contemplation.

Those picky elites still disdain such behavior, so Allison, perhaps its best if you temper your freedom a bit to avoid offending them.

Are you talking about those stubborn old fogies? Allison replied with a hint of defiance before Kellans laughter broke out.

A womans virtue isnt measured by so-called chastity.

What truly matters is character.

For instance, people like you who stir up trouble and are eager to cause problems for others should have their tongues cut out to learn a lesson, he said coldly.

Allison was taken aback by Kellans sharpness.

She hadnt anticipated such a severe reaction, though his principles seemed unwavering.

Kellan turned his gaze to Colton with casual indifference.

What do you think, Mr.

Stevens? Stay connected at gⱯlnσνℯ????s․com Kellans use of the title Mr.

Stevens carried the same cutting sarcasm as Allisons earlier remarks.

Both Colton and Melany understood this as a blatant threat, and they were too intimidated to respond.

As they exited, simmering with silent fury, a cold breeze swept the back of their heads.

Melanys eyes widened in shock as she saw a knife deeply embedded in the door.

It was stuck into the wood, just inches away from her head.

Colton felt a sudden chill on his face and touched it to find fresh blood.

Youre bleeding! Melany shrieked, noticing her hair fluttering in the breeze.

In stunned disbelief, she realized her long hair had been shorn off.

Ah! Melanys cries pierced the air.

Clang! Allison placed her neatly arranged tools down.

Melany, weakened and trembling, backed away in terror as Allison approached her.

Cant we settle this? This is deliberate harm! Melany protested.

Allison, her expression impassive, casually removed the file from the door.

Sorry, the incessant barking outside had me on edge, so I just tossed it out to scare the dogs, she said, waving the knife in front of them without a trace of apology.

If you use any more foul language next time, Ill aim it right at your heads.

Youre insane! Colton fumed, his face flushed with rage.

Youre a crazy woman! Before he could finish, Allison slammed the door shut, barely missing his nose.

She locked the door and wiped her hands clean as if she had touched something unspeakably filthy.

Finally, some peace, she muttered with a satisfied sigh.
