The Revenge of the Mute Wife by Melanie Paulson

Chapter 24



Meanwhile...

Roger wasn't having a good time. His father had followed through with the threat and demoted him he wasn't a department head anymore. Now he had less money because his salary reflected his new roles a basic employee, That only meant more problems and stress for him because Sophia couldn't be bothered about any of that she wanted to keep spending money as usual and now she was asking him for more, using her pregnancy as an excine,

After leaving work, he went home because he didn't feel like seeing anyone at the moment. He had been ignoring Sophia's constant calls all morning-she had truly become a nuisance,

"Ah... give me a break..." he complained, throwing his phone on his bed. He was tired of seeing messages like [Roger, my love, I need you. Can you give me money? Why aren't you here? I feel lonely... Hey, when will you give me a little gift. And that was only the tip of the iceberg in the number and types of messages she sent him.

He cursed himself... he should have been grateful for Deborah always keeping the house in order, never giving him any trouble, or complaining about his actions or the fact that he was never at home.

Now that he thought about it... Deborah did have her charm. She knew how to cook and make the best coffee he had ever tasted. Now, he could only sigh while lying back on his bed, closing his eyes for a moment.

Then he glanced down the hallway at the wall where their wedding portrait hung Upon closer inspection of that image, he could see his forced smile and the sadness that filled her eyes... Their expressions didn't match the theme of their photoshoot, and it was because he ruined that great moment by telling Deborah that he would never love her, nor would he spend the honeymoon with her. Instead, he would be

with his lover.

Thinking back to that memory only made him more frustrated because now he realized how badly he had been treating her. Back then, he thought he had lost everything because of her. But it turned out that her presence in his life had allowed him to gain much. How ironic.

He still didn't understand why his grandfather protected her, but the important thing was that he needed to win her back so that he could regain his social status.

The idea of getting Sophia to have an abortion no longer sounded like a bad idea-he couldn't stand her anymore. If he had to make a choice right now, he would choose Deborah.

The more he thought about it, the deeper his sigh. He turned around and tried to get comfortable in bed, hoping to catch some sleep. But he felt a slight discomfort in his leg, so he reached into his pants pocket and found Deborah's wedding ring... which was a fake ring he got from a vending machine.

Maybe he went a little too far in treating Deborah like a punching bag when she did nothing wrong to him. He also remembered the night he raped her and realized that was when she lost her virginity too... which meant someone set them up because nothing happened that supposed night they spent together. Yet they ended up having to marry each other.

Remembering that, he grabbed his phone to message that investigator to find out what exactly happened that fateful night. But as he was about to send it, a phone call came. He smiled when he saw it was his lawyer, so he quickly answered.

"What's up? What news do you have for me?"

"Boss, well... it's bad news," the voice on the other end said, sounding very distressed.

"How bad is it?" Roger frowned, starting to feel nervous.

"Well... I couldn't stop it from escalating. The trial will be in two weeks."

"WHAT?! WHY! I told you to resolve it quickly."

"It seems that her lawyer presented evidence supporting the divorce and indicated. that Ms. Deborah no longer wishes to return to you."Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"That's ridiculous! That stupid woman loves me! Why is she betraying me now? What did I do to deserve this?"

"Don't worry, sir, I'll be with you throughout the process, and we'll prove that you're a great husband who was abandoned for no reason."

"Perfect, I'll entrust that to you because we have to show that she's the bad one who abandoned home," he said before ending the call, annoyed. After hanging up, he sent that text message before sighing and closing his eyes. He had to get Deborah back no matter what.

Just then, there was a knock on the door, but he didn't move from his bed, ignoring

the noise because he didn't feel like seeing anyone.

However, those plans were ruined when he heard his phone start ringing again. "Son, open the door..." was what he heard from the entrance of the house. Roger rolled his eyes and got up to open the door, finding not only his mother but also Sophia, who was carrying some suitcases and looking very excited. "My love." the blonde threw herself into his arms while kissing him on the lips.

"Sophia, what... wait, what are you two doing together?"

"Oh, my love, it's just that since you weren answering, I got worried. So I called your mom to help me find you and she gave me the great news that the mute girl left the house, sol took the opportunity to move in to live with you."
