The Transactional Marriage That Imploded novel Chapter 368

And Stellaride's credibility was even higher. They planned to invite Cillian out for golf over the weekend to discuss business.

Mathis watched Bianca glowing brightly from the sidelines, a mix of emotions swirling in his chest.

He had been the one to clip her wings back then, turning her love into hatred.

From now on, he would carefully protect her talent and her hard work.

Seeing Bianca shine only fueled Rhea's anger, and she waited quietly for the right moment.

Right then, Bianca got up to use the restroom.

Realizing her chance had come, Rhea quietly followed her.

After finishing up, Bianca stood at the sink washing her hands when Rhea stepped up beside her.

Bianca didn't pay much attention to her. She could tell the woman was interested in Mathis.

If she liked him, she could just go after him. They wouldn't be husband and wife for much longer anyway.

She had no right to interfere in his love life.

But this woman was different from the makeup artist this afternoon. She harbored active hostility, and Bianca couldn't be bothered to talk to her.

Rhea, however, spoke up slowly, "You really are broad-minded. Mathis and Cynthia killed your grandmother, yet you can actually reconcile with him.

"Attending a Jagger family banquet without a care in the world... A woman with your background definitely needs to cling tightly to a cash cow like Mathis."

Bianca's face darkened, and she snapped her head toward Rhea, glaring fiercely.

"What kind of bullshit are you spouting? Which eye of yours saw me kissing up to Mathis?"

Rhea sneered, "I know you're just playing hard to get right now, pretending you haven't forgiven him so he feels guilty and treats you desperately well, allowing you to reap the benefits.

"But you're building your success on your grandmother's blood and bones.

"She could have lived out her old age in peace, but instead she had to worry about you, living in constant fear for you. You're the reason she met such a tragic end.

"If it weren't for you, she would never have had to suffer and wouldn't have died so violently.

"Not only have you failed to avenge her, but you're acting all lovey-dovey with your enemy.

"Parading your affection in front of the whole world."

Rhea observed Bianca's reaction as she spoke. She watched as Bianca's entire body went rigid, her lips trembling, wanting to retaliate but completely unable to form a word.

The thoughts that had tortured Bianca thousands of times in her own mind were now being spoken aloud by someone else, and the overwhelming guilt instantly crushed her rationality.

Knowing she had struck a nerve, Rhea decided to twist the knife further. "If I were your grandma, I'd be rolling in my grave, sick to my stomach that I raised such a pathetic, useless thing."

Bianca broke out in a cold sweat. It was true. She was too useless.

Her vision went black, and she collapsed directly onto the floor.
