James stared at Patti with pure hatred. He started towards her, ready to slap her, but seeing the blood pooling beneath her, he stopped himself. He couldn't risk her dying here.
If he hit her now, his fingerprints would be on her. If Patti died, he'd be facing a manslaughter charge.
He had already done so much to break Mrs. Mercer's heart. What if she used this opportunity to send him to prison? James would be finished.
Thinking this, James pulled his hand back. He pointed at Patti and demanded, "Tell me the truth. Were you and Hawthorne working together to set me up all along?"
Patti, barely hanging on, glared at James and cursed, "You and Hawthorne are both monsters. I'll haunt you from my grave."
Mrs. Mercer wiped her hands with a tissue and drained her water cup.
"Get her to a hospital," she ordered her men. "I don't want her dying in my house. And have someone replace this entire carpet."
The metallic, foul smell was sickening.
"Don't let this bitch pollute the air in my home. It's disgusting."
Mrs. Mercer stood up, and James followed her like a dog. She smiled faintly, a chilling edge to her voice. "Why are you following me? Don't you have a company to run? You just signed a huge deal. Shouldn't you be at the office, bragging and celebrating?"
Hearing that, James thought her anger might have subsided. He scurried over, bowing and scraping like a servant at her side.
"You're right, my dear. A celebration is definitely in order, and my wife deserves all the credit. I only landed this deal because I have such a capable partner at home. You will be the guest of honor at the company banquet."
Lying on the floor, Patti finally understood that she had been used and thrown away like a dirty rag.

I can’t even read this sickening story anymore, this couple didn’t even get a chance to be really happy before their marriage was torn apart. It had been dragged out long enough....
If Gwyn gets an abortion I am going to stop reading this story, I believe in pro-choice but come on. Why can't he just tell her what he is really doing with Patti instead of letting her think she is a mistress....
Why no updates? It’s been so long! Pls update....
