Silence fell over the line.
She was right.
She had flipped the board on them because they had repeatedly tried to murder her.
She had reached her breaking point!
It was their thirst for her blood that triggered the fallout, not some old grudge over her mother.
And now, he was trying to use this twisted sense of guilt to make her protect Susanna?
It was utterly absurd...
And now Susanna was gunning for her life again.
His breathing hitched as her overwhelming presence radiated through the phone.
For a moment, he couldn't find a single word to say...
"Talk some sense into her. You know my patience is running very thin."
In the past, she might have held some genuine affection for him.
Which was why she had tolerated his family's nonsense for so long.
But now, he meant absolutely nothing to her! Naturally, she wasn't going to show them any more mercy.
Without waiting for a response, she hung up.

Listening to the dial tone, Fairfax felt a chill seep into his bones.
He knew exactly what this meant. If Susanna went anywhere near her, Starla would not hold back.
Thad walked over after taking a call.
"Sir."
"Well?"
"It was Elmer Hoggart's men who carried out the attack."

Why The ML is Idiot ๐๐๐ i Dont understand,i Think herbert is more suitable to become the ML he is most compose and calm than the ML ๐๐...
"You're a failure as a husband and coward as a Man" This is what i want to say in Fairfax hahaha you dont deserved a wife if you cant protect her...
Hahaha This plot of story i hate about, choosing another girl instead of your own wife is something unreal, you didnt considered your wife feeling, you didnt even trust her and later on you will say sorry?? Was sorry will fixed everything you've done? Was sorry fixed her heart? it was unfair for your wife, you must choose your wife whatever it is. You know your wife well more than anyone else and the only person she should lean on was the person who pushes her away...
Finally๐...
