The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson novel Chapter 96

Chapter 96 

“And that’s how it’ll be from now on. By the way, after what happened today, I think you should take self- defense classes once James is born.” 

[That sounds like a good idea.] 

“Yeah, because that lunatic is still obsessed with you, and I worry he might try something when I’m not around. You heard him, he still thinks you belong to him or something.” 

I think Roger always saw me more as an object than a person. It’s clear he hasn’t regretted his actions at all.] 

“He’s so different from his father. Well, all the blame lies with his mother, oh, ex–mother. Thankfully, the other kid is normal and kind like George.” 

[Yeah.] 

“Hey, I wanted to ask you something.” 

[What is it?] 

“So… um, can I call that man my father–in–law?” Jayden asked nervously. 

[Father–in–law?] 

“You know, Nicholas.” 

[Well, I guess so.] 

“Jeez, I’m glad I got that out of the way,” Jayden joked, noticing Deborah laughing at his words. “Speaking of that, my love, where is your mom buried?” 

[I don’t know.] 

“Huh? What do you mean by that?” 

[I don’t know where she’s buried. Frederick never lets me visit her. When I asked Roger for help about it after moving in with him, he just ignored me.] Deborah felt tears escape her eyes. 

Jayden hugged her while mentally vowing to find Alexandra’s resting place so the mother and daughter could reunite. 

That night, Jayden and Deborah returned to her home for dinner and sleep. 

After Deborah dozed off, Jayden slipped out of the bedroom to make a phone call. 

“Hey Christian, I wanted to let you know that everything you asked for is ready.” 

[Thanks, both of you. Carrie’s going to get a big surprise tomorrow.] Christian’s voice came through the 

earpiece. 

“Yeah… by the way, you’re planning to visit those scumbags tomorrow morning, right?” 

[Yes, why? Does Deborah need something?) 

“Kind of. I just found out Frederick never let Deborah visit her mom’s grave.”

[What..? She doesn’t-] 

‘Exactly. I need you to get the truth out of him because Deborah should be visiting her mother’s grave with flowers, sitting to talk with her.” 

[Don’t worry, I’ll handle it. In fact, I’ve been reading through the documents we recovered from that house.] 

“I’m counting on you…” 

[You sound worried. What are you thinking?] Christian asked from the other end of the line. 

“Judging by how Frederick treated Deborah, I wouldn’t be surprised if he had discarded Alexandra’s body somewhere, just to save money on a coffin,” Jayden said with a grimace. 

Given everything Christian knew about Frederick, it was a plausible theory. [Don’t worry, Jayden. I promise I’ll get the information out of him tomorrow.] With that, Christian ended the call. 

Jayden put away his phone and returned to his beloved’s side to sleep and rest for the night. 

Meanwhile, Christian was rubbing his eyes after finishing the call. 

He felt sickened. He had never dealt with a case so vile where a father would harm his own daughter for
