After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 764

Chapter 764

"Why keep her? To continue causing trouble in our village?"

"Our village is being developed, surely because it's a jinx! A disaster brought upon us!"

These village women were all crazy about Winter. Ever since she came to their village, their husbands have been following her like they were under a spell, constantly going home and praising Winter for being so beautiful.

Whichever of them listened, they all felt very uncomfortable.

This time they finally got Winter's red-handed.

The morning sun shone on the surface of the water, creating sparkling ripples.

Early in the morning, the village was not calm.

Winter was put into a cage.

"Let's go, carry it away."

None of the men in their family dared to speak up, although they felt a little guilty watching Winter's embarrassed appearance.

But... not a single person spoke up.

Several scratch marks were on Winter's beautiful face, and her cheap maternity clothes were torn and tattered, revealing her fair skin, making her look especially alluring.

She always protected her belly, fearing that the unborn child would be harmed.

These women ended up hitting her anyway, but none of them hit her stomach.

She held her belly, sitting in the cage and looking at these villagers with an expressionless face.

She felt a little anxious as she didn't want to die.

What if the child was drowned in this river? That was her only tie with Clark in this world.

Her eyes turned red with sadness, "I really didn't have an affair with Devyn. Why don't you listen to my explanation?"

"At this point, you still won't admit it?!" Phoebe became angry and pinched her face. Her grip was strong, as she did farm work every day and had a lot of strength.

"You bitch! Our village kindly took you in, and yet you still seduced my man!" Phoebe slapped her across the face once again and exclaimed, "We should never have taken you in to begin with."

"That's it. No more talking. Just drown her in the water," another woman said before carrying the cage.

Winter panicked and struggled to push open the door of the cage. "Let me out! This is murder, it's illegal!"

"You ignorant village women," she yelled.

As the cage got closer and closer to the river, suddenly a figure came running towards them. "Winter! Winter!" It was Rey.

"Winter, save me!" She screamed as if she had seen a life-saving straw.

"Rey, don't blame us for not warning you. She's just a slut who seduced my man last night," Phoebe blocked Rey's way and shouted loudly.

"It's impossible. Winter isn't that kind of woman, especially since she's about to give birth!" Rey didn't believe Phoebe at all.

"I know you want her as your wife, but she is a bitch who will only deceive you." Phoebe continued to slander Winter's reputation. "If she were really a good woman, would she be living here alone with such a big belly? I think she must be one of those mistresses carrying an illegitimate child."

"Don't talk about her like that!" Rey became angry and pushed Phoebe away before rushing towards Winter.

"What do you mean by this? Pushing my woman?" Devyn rushed over to grab hold of Rey. "She seduced me last night insisting on talking with me while claiming that couldn't sleep."

Rey was stunned; he looked at Devyn in shock. "Is it true?"

"Can I lie to you?" Devyn said stubbornly; he couldn't admit his own dirty behavior when things had come this far.

Winter was shaking with anger. "He's lying about everything; he's framing me!" But no one believed her anymore.

She could only put her last hope on Rey. "Rey, I didn't do anything wrong; please believe me."

"Rey, we're buddies," Devyn said painfully."We've known each other for half our lives so why wouldn't you trust what I say? Last night I made mistakes because I drank too much but once we got back up there..."

Winter closed her eyes tightly; at this point there was nothing left for her to say.

There had been great pity in Rey's eyes when looking at Winter but now he didn't know whom or what should be trusted anymore.

He wanted to believe in Winter but what Devyn and Phoebe said seemed so convincing after all.

Could it really be true that Winter wasn't faithful? Maybe Phoebe wasn't wrong either. If she were really such an honorable woman, why would someone like herself end up pregnant living alone in their village anyway?

After a while, he angrily said to Winter, "I can't believe how much I liked you and helped you all the time. Winter, you've disappointed me so much."

Winter opened her mouth but felt a huge sense of powerlessness welling up inside her. She felt as small and insignificant as an ant.

She sat in the pigsty with a heart as dead as ashes, feeling the river water slowly creeping up past her knees towards her neck.
