A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1035

Yvonne was a very easygoing woman with a warm personality.

The moment Starla walked out of Fairfax's room, Yvonne whisked her away.

"Try this, it's delicious."

Yvonne had personally cooked a spread to welcome Starla.

The last time Starla was in Cyrus Sea, she had been deathly ill, so they hadn't formally met.

Now that she was finally interacting with her, Yvonne found she really liked her...

"It's good, right? I told him my cooking was fine, but Amos always says it tastes awful and tells me to stop wasting groceries."

She sounded a little offended.

Yvonne loved to cook and had always been confident in her culinary skills.

But according to Amos, everything she made was inedible.

Over time, she had started to lose her confidence.

Starla smiled. "He probably just doesn't want you tiring yourself out in the kitchen, so he made that up."

"Really?"

Yvonne thought about it for a second, then shook her head. "He's not that clever. He genuinely just hates my cooking."

To Yvonne, Amos was incredibly straightforward. Compared to a mastermind like Yardley, Amos was simple.

The man had been sold out by his own friends more times than he could count!

He didn't have the brains for reverse psychology!

"Are you and Fairfax still fighting?" Yvonne asked casually. "He seems super stressed about you."

Lately, Fairfax's anxiety over Starla had been off the charts.

When she was hidden away in Sylvan Vale, he hadn't just worried about her physical safety; he constantly fretted over whether she was comfortable and adapting well.

His entire existence seemed to revolve around her.

Seeing that, Yvonne honestly couldn't understand how their relationship had deteriorated to this point.

"Your cooking is great," Starla said evenly, "but if you're going to put in a good word for Fairfax, you can stop right there."

"Huh?"

"As long as you're not mad," Yvonne smiled. "There are very few women around here, so we have to stick together."

"Oh?"

"It's just been me for years. When Romy is around, I at least have someone to talk to, but when she's gone, I literally don't speak to anyone for days."

Romy had been glued to Starla's side for the past month!

Yvonne had been bored out of her mind. Yes, Amos was with her every day, but he was a man who was constantly rushing out to handle business.

Starla looked at her. "Are there really that few women here?"

"Yeah, very few! Amos rarely lets me go outside, so I don't know anyone in town."

And within Amos's inner circle, women were practically nonexistent.

Starla stayed quiet.

She understood exactly why Amos didn't let Yvonne out.

For years, Yardley's burning hatred for Amos was entirely because of this woman sitting in front of her. If she wandered around outside, there was a high chance Yardley's men would snatch her.
