A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 726

She didn't want to leave this place either. She had lived here her entire life, right from the day she was born.

This was supposed to be her home!

Now, it had been usurped by Starla. No matter who it happened to, it was a gut-wrenching pain.

Darleen took a deep breath, sniffing softly as tears streamed down her face.

With one last look at the grand gates of the Yelchin Estate, she turned away, a lonely figure following Xenia into the distance.

Inside, Garret turned to Starla. "Should we arrange for them to be locked up now?"

He was referring to Darleen and Xenia.

They had compiled enough solid evidence against them to make it stick.

"There's no rush," she replied. "Wait until I return to Yoran Country. They need to learn a few things before they get locked away."

"What do you mean?"

"Haven't they been guessing who's backing me all this time?"

Once she returned to Yoran Country, certain pieces of information would naturally come to light.

"Why not just tell them directly?" Garret asked, puzzled.

"Even if I told them directly, they wouldn't believe it."

Garret understood.

She wanted their minds to be tormented. Even if they were locked up, the psychological torture would gnaw at them relentlessly.

Sometimes, knowing exactly why you were destroyed was the sharpest pain of all.

Xenia and Darleen were gone.

But Brinley Seabrook had nowhere left to go.

She called Harriet Seabrook. When Harriet heard that she had been kicked out of the Yelchin Estate, the atmosphere over the phone instantly turned freezing cold.

"You got kicked out? So you can't even resolve your issues with Starla?"

"Mom, I have nowhere to go! Is my conflict with her the only thing you care about?"

Her main reason for calling was to say she was homeless, hoping Harriet had some spare property she could stay in.

But Harriet's singular focus on her usefulness made Brinley's blood run cold.

"If your conflict with her isn't resolved, my problems here won't end! Don't you realize what's at stake?"
