What She Overheard in Her Own Marriage novel Chapter 447

"Finnian, I didn't mean it like that. I was just so angry," Elaine said, carefully reviewing her memories. Kaia truly was faultless in her duties.

Seeing his mother finally grasp the consequences of her impulsiveness, Finnian let out a heavy sigh. "You think she's beneath me, that she climbed the social ladder to marry into our family, and you expect her to spend the rest of her life bowing her head in gratitude. Mom, that just proves you never bothered to understand who she is."

It was as if a knot in Elaine's chest had been forcefully untangled, yet a bitter reluctance remained. "She was doing perfectly fine before, why does she suddenly want out now? And the things she was saying... she actually claimed that the one you love is Noelle, that the two of you have some inappropriate relationship. I lost my mind with rage and threw my coffee at her..."

"What?" Finnian's scalp practically exploded. His mother had thrown coffee on Kaia?

Elaine awkwardly avoided her son's piercing gaze, muttering defensively, "She was the one spouting nonsense first! You and Noelle are strictly family. For her to say something like that is a massive insult to both of you. If that rumor got out, how would Noelle even show her face? She's pregnant right now, and I will not let anyone stress her out."

Finnian stiffened. In that moment, his mind went completely blank, incapable of processing a single thought.

Seeing her son's dark, brooding expression, Elaine shifted on the sofa. Her lips moved as if she wanted to say something, but she swallowed the words.

Suddenly, she felt deeply resentful. She had come here to convince her son to finalize the divorce so Kaia couldn't lord her superiority over them anymore.

Instead, she ended up getting lectured. She felt incredibly wronged.
