A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 724

"What is the meaning of this? You explicitly stated that as long as he gave you everything, you would sign the papers! So what's going on now? You have it all, and now you're refusing to divorce him?"

Darleen was livid.

God knew!

She had waited in agony for the two of them to finally end it. She desperately wanted them divorced.

Just end it!

It would be for the best...

Every minute a woman like that remained tied to the Yelchins was a risk to the family.

Hearing Darleen's furious accusations, especially the implication that *she* was the one dragging her feet, brought a mocking smirk to Starla's lips.

"You think your precious son is some sort of prize? You think I'm the one refusing? It's your son who won't sign! He ran away."

Darleen was speechless.

Xenia stared, wide-eyed.

The barrage of insults they had prepared for Starla was instantly deflected right back at Darleen.

It had been like this lately.

She wanted to tear Starla down, but was Starla someone she could even touch anymore?

Darleen's breathing grew ragged with anger.

"You can reach him, right? Why don't you give him a call and ask him what the hell he's playing at?"

Darleen opened her mouth but no words came out.

"Everything was settled. Why the hell did he run?" Starla's tone dripped with thick sarcasm.

Hearing the word "run" made Darleen's chest heave with indignation.

"Stop spouting nonsense! There's no way he's refusing the divorce!" she snapped.

She had seen with her own two eyes how desperate he had been to sever ties lately.

Now Starla was claiming he was the one holding out? Impossible!

And saying he ran away?

Who was she trying to humiliate?

Hadn't she tortured them enough recently? Now she had to utter such vile things to degrade him.
