“You’re the one who forbade him to see me, right?” Catherine cried.

Two female caretakers rushed in, grabbing Catherine by the arms to keep her from thrashing around.

But Catherine still had her mouth.

She started hurling insults at Willow, her words vicious. “Julian never loved you! You’re nothing more than a tool for his power struggle! If he truly loved you, why would he stay in Grandsburg instead of coming back?

“Willow, you’re pathetic for clinging to a man who doesn’t love you. You have no self–respect at all!”

One of the caretakers covered her mouth.

But it was too late. Everyone had heard her, including Charlie and Nancy, who had just arrived, and Julian.

The room fell into a dead silence.

Willow’s pride was trampled on once again…

Julian’s Adam’s apple bobbed as he called out, “Willow.”

Willow first looked at Catherine, then shifted her gaze to her husband. She let out a faint smile. “Julian, she’s not wrong. You don’t love me, do you? Do you dare say it now that you love me?”

Julian took a step closer. “Let’s talk about this at home.”

She shook off his hand, her smile turning cold. “Why should we talk about it at home? Are you afraid to say something in front of your

mistress?

“Julian, we’ve been married for years. I never asked you for your loyalty, but at the very least, keep your dog in check. Now that she’s barged in here herself, I won’t disappoint either of you.

“I will sue you. I will have the court calculate it down to the last penny of every cent you spent on Catherine. Sure, I know you don’t care about the money, but I’ll make sure Catherine is nailed to the pillar of shame.

“I want everyone to know that she is your side chick.”

A round of applause broke out.

Annie clapped so hard that her hands were about to break. Willow was truly something else.

“Mrs. Burke!” Julian’s voice was ice–cold, carrying a sharp warning.

Nancy froze. She wanted to say more, but Charlie firmly held her back.

Julian’s voice was low. “If anyone dares to say one more word in front of my wife, you’ll deal with the consequences.”
