Love and Devotion No Longer His to Claim (Angela and Dexter) novel Chapter 390

Angela didn't hesitate to follow along. She had no interest in putting up with Natalie's pointless anger and would much rather spend her time grabbing a late-night snack.

However, she was still a bit puzzled. Who were the two people that had taken Trevor away earlier? The timing had been too perfect.

"Stop right there!" Natalie's shoulders trembled with rage as she pointed at Fiona. "You… You're a disrespectful daughter-in-law! The reason you ended up like this is because you weren't capable enough. You failed to keep your husband's heart and couldn't control him.

"That's why he went to someone else! Given that, you should reflect on your mistakes, accept, and tolerate your husband instead of constantly opposing the family!"

What kind of twisted logic was this?

Angela let out a scoff, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes. But since Fiona remained silent, she didn't bother to speak either.

Unexpectedly, Natalie intensified her attack. "I'm doing this for your own good. If people see how understanding you are toward Trevor, wouldn't that earn you a reputation for generosity? Others would certainly admire you for it."

"Sorry, but I'm narrow-minded and intolerant. As long as I'm here, Trevor can forget about being accepted into the family." Fiona turned calmly, her gaze as cold as ever.

"Besides, it was you who failed to raise your son properly—what does that have to do with anyone else? He is vile, shameless, and has committed the disgraceful act of cheating.

Yet, not only do you refuse to acknowledge his wrongdoings, but you're even making excuses for him. So whose fault is it, really?"

Fiona had already made up her mind—she was no longer a part of the Bamford family. She had given Natalie enough respect by letting her live out her later years in peace and not stirring up trouble for Trevor. That was already more than generous.
