The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 129

Chapter 129 

“Because I refuse to accept this absurd idea. Remember our promise to stay together until death do us part?” 

remember each of our marital vows very clearly,” he said, looking into her eyes. 

“Then, why don’t we forget all this nonsense and- 

“Isabelle, answer me honestly–what happened when Roger was kidnapped in our house?” 

“What?” She didn’t understand why he was asking that question. 

“The house’s security cameras were disabled, and I remember I had gone out to run some errands that 

morning.” 

“Um well, I. I don’t really remember the details and- 

“Those men entered the house with the key you provided them to kidnap Elliot, but your plan failed because Elliot went to work with me that day, and only Roger and Deborah were playing in the garden when they came in.” 

She tightened her grip on the handle of her cup as she stared at the dark liquid. It was true–her plan had failed because Elliot had left the house without her noticing. Isabelle looked up in fear, “How…?” 

“It took me a while to uncover the truth, but a few months ago, I discovered your whole deception, how you hired those thugs to fake–kidnap your son, who would be left in a distant orphanage while they pretended he had died, so Roger wouldn’t have any competition.” 

“G–George, wait…” 

“Your lies are useless now,” he said, pulling out a folder from his briefcase and tossing it onto the table with all the evidence. “Just tell me why do you hate our second child?” 

“Because I told you I didn’t want another child, but you forced me into it!” 

“I told you to keep him because I was concerned about your health. When we found out about Elliot, you were already pregnant with him for five months…even the doctor said it would be risky to abort. Remember?” 

“Of course, I remember.” 

“Then?” 

“I admit that for a moment, I hoped for the pregnancy, thinking we would have a girl. But the baby turned out to be a boy, and I didn’t want him because he would become my son’s rival. You know very well how horrible it was to see my siblings fighting each other for the leadership of my family.” 

“But they were our children and this is our family, not your siblings or your family!” George shouted, pounding the table with his fists as he lost his patience. “Isabelle, I told you that if Roger proved himself to be the best, he would get the company, and if not, I would create one for him based on his own interests.” 

“But both of them liked the company!”

“And that’s why I went abroad to acquire more mines.” 

“What….” 

“My plan was that when Elliot came of age, we would announce an international branch of the Peterson jewelry company,” he said, shedding a few tears from the anger he felt at that moment. 

She looked at her husband in amazement, as she never thought that would be his plan. 

“Isabelle, both our sons always had a place in my heart. How could you let your selfishness get in the way of doing the same for them?” George gripped the tablecloth tightly. “Do you know how much pain and humiliation I felt when I heard my son call a stranger ‘brother yesterday? That everyone found out that Jayden Cooper has been more of a brother to Elliot than his own blood brother?”

“My children hate each other because their mother taught them to. The future I had dreamed of, where 

my 

children could live in harmony, supporting each other. That future will never be a reality because they fight like cats and dogs.” 

“George…” 

“You ruined our perfect family with your prejudices!”
