He didn't offer a single explanation, didn't try to comfort her. He merely barked out a curt instruction before marching off to the study, completely ignoring the tears welling in her eyes.
The heavy oak doors clicked shut, completely sealing off his world from hers.
Claire was left standing alone in the massive living room, a freezing chill sinking into her bones.
She stood there, her limbs completely numb, as tears silently spilled down her cheeks.
She was too cowardly to chase after him and demand answers. She didn't dare question his authority, and she absolutely didn't have the guts to throw a fit in his face.
She had always walked on eggshells around him, swallowing every bitter pill just to keep the peace. She loved him so desperately it had entirely stripped away her self-respect.
But this time, she refused to stomach it.
The woman didn't even want to be here. She wanted to leave the country and cut ties with him forever.
That was the most glorious, intoxicating piece of news Claire had ever heard.
If the intruder was gone, everything would go back to normal. She would remain his undisputed fiancée, and this massive estate would belong only to her.
A wild, reckless plan sparked into a blazing wildfire in her mind.
She could be the one to orchestrate the escape.
If she could smuggle her out undetected, by the time he realized it, the woman would be gone.
Even if he flew into a rage, there would be absolutely nothing he could do about it.
Wiping away her tears, the pathetic vulnerability vanished from her eyes.
Taking a deep breath to suppress her erratic heartbeat, she marched silently toward the staircase.
The second-floor hallway was dead silent. The door to the west guest suite was cracked open, the lights turned off inside. The pale moonlight filtering through the window highlighted the rigid silhouette sitting at the edge of the bed.
Hesitating for only a fraction of a second, Claire gently pushed the door wide open.
At the slight noise, Rebecca's head snapped up, her eyes narrowing with lethal caution. "What do you want?"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell
Although she was one of the protagonist (and best friend of Danielle), I'm really annoyed with Kristen. What does she actually want? She wants to be completely free from Gian, whatever their business is. But when Gian doesn't care about her, she gets annoyed and overthinks. Hey, Kristen, the world doesn't revolve around you. You may follow your own feelings, but that doesn't mean you can ignore other people's feelings at all!...
It seems like this novel will end at chapter 5000. Every time one issue ends, another one pops up, and it seems like the author is just trying to drag it out. I'm starting to get tired of reading it....
I hope daniele will have no end game with alexander since whatever the reason is, he only give her too much grievencess. I hope there will be another male character with stronger present than alexander to have the end game with daniele. Hated that in the name of love or protection alexander can treat another woman better, not just once, but with this new lorie girl... Oh my blood pressure getting higher cause by the new plot :(...
