A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 920

"Even if I just told you straight up, you wouldn't believe it."

Just like right now. Romy could see the clear doubt in Starla's eyes regarding the whole situation.

And she couldn't blame her. If this happened to anyone, they'd be suspicious too, wouldn't they?

Unbelievable. Yes, Starla refused to believe it.

Right now, she was in a state of absolute disbelief.

She felt it was entirely impossible for Brinley to have any ties to someone like that.

Seeing Starla stay silent, the doubt still lingering in her eyes, Romy sighed. "See? You really don't believe me."

"How am I supposed to believe what you're saying is true? Or is this just what Fairfax told you to say?"

"Whether it's true or not, you'll know tonight by seeing how badly hurt Mr. Yelchin is when he comes back, won't you?"

"Within Cyrus Sea territory, Mr. Farley and your brother can't touch him," Romy added. "But that man is different!"

"So you're saying if he comes back severely injured tonight, then everything you said is true?"

"You can call your brother right now and ask him yourself," Romy challenged.

"If what you're saying is true, why didn't they tell me from the start?"

Tell her from the very beginning that Brinley had caught the eye of someone incredibly powerful, so she couldn't just do whatever she wanted with her anymore.

Was that so hard to say? It wasn't exactly a difficult reason to accept, was it?

"Because that man has something your brother and Mr. Farley want," Romy said bluntly. "Weighing the pros and cons, they put profit first. They probably also figured you wouldn't accept that."

Weighing the pros and cons?

Hah...! Starla always knew Herbert was a man who prioritized interests, but she never imagined he would apply that to Brinley.

"If Brinley had ended up in that man's hands, you would never be able to touch her for the rest of your life," Romy stated.

Hearing this, Starla's breath hitched again.
