A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1317

Starla had built a fortress around herself, completely immune to the chaos of the outside world. She threw herself into her work at the Hoggart Group, staying focused while everyone else ran around like headless chickens.

Yardley's world, on the other hand, was imploding.

Back at the estate, Susanna overheard the maids whispering. Yvonne was returning. Susanna knew exactly who Yvonne was. During her time in Cyrus Sea, she had seen the vibrant, captivating woman who held both Amos and Yardley in the palm of her hand. Yvonne wasn't just a fling; she was Yardley's first love, the one that got away.

Yardley had left that morning with strict instructions: *Do not call me unless it's an emergency.* He constantly reminded her that she was just a bird in a gilded cage. But the news of Yvonne's arrival shattered her restraint.

Susanna dialed Yardley's number.

It rang out. She called again. Ignored. She tried a third time. Nothing.

Susanna stared at her phone, her chest tight with panic. The maids' whispers echoed in her ears.

*"I heard Miss Starla and Yvonne were quite close back in Cyrus Sea."*

Susanna remembered it perfectly. She had seen how warmly Yvonne treated Starla, and the sheer contempt she had shown Susanna. The dread creeping up her spine was suffocating.
