Garret was finalizing the transfer of the lucrative mines. As soon as Starla got what she wanted, she would convince Elmer to release Fairfax.
"Until then, I suggest you stay quiet and behave. Understand?" Yardley's tone held a lethal warning. He was completely out of patience with her theatrics.
Susanna shrank back, a tremor running through her.
...
News of Susanna's dramatic hospital stint quickly reached Starla. When she returned to the estate that evening, she found Elmer sitting in the drawing room, looking positively thunderous.
Starla walked over and took a seat across from him. A maid immediately moved to serve her dinner.
"I'm fine, thank you. I've already eaten," Starla dismissed her gently. A simple bowl of pasta with Herbert had been enough.
"You were with Herbert?" Elmer asked, his brow furrowing.
"Yes."
"You shouldn't be seeing him." In Elmer's eyes, Herbert was no better than Fairfax. The man had indirectly caused Starla immense pain when she was desperate enough to fake her own death. That was unforgivable.
Starla offered a faint smile. "He's heading back to Marina City the day after tomorrow."
"And?"
"Don't worry, Dad." Starla knew what he meant. Neither Fairfax nor Herbert was worthy in her father's eyes. Frankly, she felt the same.

"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...
Finallyπ...
