The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 87

Chapter 87 

Vanessa’s words scared Cassandra as she could tell her mother wasn’t joking and was very serious. 

“Mom, are you serious? 

“Yes, so decide, Cassandra: are you with me or your father?” 

“With you,” Cassandra quickly declared, as she refused to work and live like everyone else 

1 thought so,” Vanessa said mockingly. “So let’s go get that money and get out of this both tired of everyone talking behind our backs and pointing at us in the streets.” 

cause we’re 

Yes… I’m tired of it too.” 

“Let’s go. Let’s start a new life.” 

“But… what will happen to Dad and Emest?” 

“Once we’re settled, we’ll try to help Ernest… but they’ll most likely release him because he’s innocent and only tried to stop your father.” 

True so 

“When he’s free, we’ll tell him where we’re living so he can join us.” 

“Okay.” 

The mother and daughter went into a restaurant to eat something and then returned home. Upon arrival, Vanessa immediately went to her room to look for the jewelry in the place Frederick told her. After moving some clothes around in that drawer, she found that Frederick was right. When she removed the false bottom, she saw many jewelry 

“Damn… you hid the most expensive ones here,” Vanessa muttered angrily, seeing all the precious stones each jewelry had. “But well… with this, I’ll at least get a decent house.” 

At that moment, she heard a man’s voice behind her and felt something metal against her head. “Freeze! Put your hands up!” 

“Please don’t hurt me,” Vanessa said, trembling a little. 

“Stand up with your hands in the air!” 

Vanessa was scared; it was the first time a thief had entered the house, and she was thinking about how to attack him. As she stood up and turned to face the thief, she used her bag to hit him. 

“Ahl 

“No one robs me, idiot, and-” Vanessa started to say, but someone grabbed her from behind and restrained her hands. “Let me go!” 

“Well, we’ll add resisting arrest to all the charges,” a voice mockingly said. Vanessa calmed down when she realized she had hit a police officer.

“Vanessa Turner, you’re under arrest for breaking and entering, identity theft, theft, child abuse, assaulting a police officer, and resisting arrest, among other charges,” the person in charge of the operation declared. 

“Wha–wait, this must be a mistake, I didn’t.” 

“Ah! No, let me go, idiots! Don’t you know who you’re messing with?” At that moment, Cassandra’s voice could be heard from a distance, confirming that she had also been arrested. 

“Yes, we’re arresting a thief,” someone replied. 

“You” Cassandra was furious and tried by all means to free herself from the hand that limited the mobility of her hands only to cause more damage. 

“Cassandra!” Vanessa called her desperately while trying to reach her, but an officer was holding her back so she wouldn’t run. 

“Mom… help me, tell these crazies that they’re arresting the wrong person!” 

“That’s true, you’re making a mistake,” said Vanessa. 

“Of course not. We’re here to arrest those living illegally in this house and return the belongings to Miss Anderson, the rightful owner of this house and the jewelry you were stealing, ma’am,” Christian said, appearing next to the officers 

“I’m Miss Anderson!” Cassandra declared angrily. “And wait… I know you, you’re her lawyer,” she said furiously, recognizing Christian. 

“That’s a good joke. Now I actually feel sorry for you,” Christian said. 

“What?!” 

“Your parents made you live a lie your whole life, but the reality is that your last name is Turner. You’re not the lady of this house, and you never will be.” Just then, Nicholas appeared next to Christian, wearing a mocking smile. 

“You…” Vanessa was terrified when she recognized the man, causing her to start trembling. “No… No! Impossible…You…You should be dead… How?” 

“Dead?” Now Cassandra was frightened when she noticed her mother’s strange behavior. 

“Unfortunately, even though you wished for my death, the little money you gave that judge to keep me in prison for life wasn’t enough, my dear,” Nicholas mocked, standing in front of Vanessa. “And if you’re trembling, it’s because you already know what comes next, right?“* 

“No.. this.. this isn’t real. That thug confirmed to Frederick that you died in your cell!* 

“Mom… W–What are you talking about?” Cassandra was confused as panic took over her, especially since her mother was talking about attempted murder. 

“Let’s just say someone else gave that guy a better payment to tell them that I died.” 

“The woman is confessing to bribing a judge and paying someone in prison to kill another person,” Christian said, taking official notes.
