Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 169

"You think I wanna be here?" Angela snorted. "I'm here to tell you to move your secret family elsewhere. Make sure they don't appear in public."

Bill averted his gaze, trying to grasp the meaning behind Angela's words.

"I'm part of the Graham family, part of the Graham Group," Angela continued, her voice sharp with frustration. "Do you really think I'd dig my own grave?"

"I'll call them," Bill started to say, but before he could finish, the door swung open again. This time, it was Judy and Zack.

"Mom, calm down. When you were dating Dad, didn't you already know how much of a flirt he was? You're just the product of his infidelity. Now that he has a mistress, why are you so upset and angry?"

Zack was good at defusing tension, spreading his arms as if to block Judy, his posture awkward but well-meaning.

"Get out of my way, you traitor! How dare you help that bastard! You're not even my son anymore!"

Judy was fierce and domineering.

She shoved Zack aside, took a few steps forward, and slapped Bill hard across the face, leaving a clear red mark.

Still not satisfied, she pointed at his nose and snarled, "You shameless, disgusting bastard! When you married me, what did you promise? Didn't you swear you'd never have another woman in your life? And now… You've lied to me for 15 years and even have a son and a daughter with her. How dare you!"

Bill had never encountered such disrespect in all his years of running a company and holding a high position.

Even Judy used to treat him with respect.

She was nothing more than a parasitic vine clinging to him, yet now she had the audacity to turn the tables, pointing at his nose while hitting and berating him.
