A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1203

His own sister had been desperate to get away from him. Since he was a child, people had called him crazy.

Was he... really that far gone?

So crazy that even his own sister couldn't stand him?

"Shut up!" Yardley gritted his teeth.

It was one thing for outsiders to say it, but hearing Susanna throw it in his face, combined with Starla’s desperate escape...

It felt like a jagged thorn twisting in his chest.

He had never thought there was anything wrong with his ruthless nature.

But Starla was family!

How could she be on such a completely different wavelength, refusing to see things his way?

"People like you deserve to die!" Susanna screamed. "You're the one who should be dead!"

Yardley’s expression was ice. "Then I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed."

Die?

Plenty of people wanted him dead, but none of them had ever gotten their wish.

Before Susanna could scream another insult, Garret stepped into the room. "Sir."

"What is it?"

"Fairfax Yelchin had someone deliver this."

He handed a thick manila envelope to Yardley.

Hearing that the package came from Fairfax, Susanna’s heart skipped a beat.

Then, a massive wave of relief washed over her.

He had someone deliver it...

That meant her brother was still alive!

She wasn't the last Yelchin standing.

The crushing weight lifted slightly from her shoulders.

Yardley’s silence just moments ago had been pure torture, making her believe he had already slaughtered her brother.

Yardley pulled the documents from the envelope and scanned the first page.

Just one glance.

His brow furrowed deeply, and he slowly lifted his eyes to look at Susanna.

Susanna had no idea what had just happened, but Yardley’s reaction was horrifying. He looked like a lone, ravenous wolf descending from a snowy mountain, completely consumed by bloodlust.

Scrambling for her phone, she dialed Fairfax's number again.

This time... someone finally picked up.

Before he could even speak, she blurted out, "Fairfax?!"

"Yeah. It's me."

His voice came through the line, dark and chilling.

It seemed Fairfax was currently exuding the exact same dangerous aura as Yardley.

"Are you in Maxlandia?" she asked frantically.

"Yes."

"What did you send to Yardley?"

"Did he get it?" Fairfax asked coldly.

"Yes, and he looked terrifying. What was it?"

This was not the time to provoke a man like that. After spending this much time in his territory, Susanna knew exactly how much power Yardley commanded here.
