Whats She Overheard in Her Own Marriage novel Chapter 498

Now, armed with this shocking revelation, Elaine’s mind raced with dark suspicions.

Could Rafael have discovered Noelle’s secret obsession with his brother? Was the shock too much to bear? Did he let himself spiral until his heart gave out from the sheer torment?

Elaine was horrified by her own thoughts.

Could that really be what happened?

The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became. If that was the true cause of his heart attack, how could she, as a mother, ever live with it?

“Rafael… could you come to me in a dream and tell me? Don’t leave me here torturing myself with these wild guesses.” Elaine stared at the moon, tears blurring her vision.

Noelle was discharged from the hospital. She knew Elaine was deeply disappointed in her and would never allow her back into the Sanders family home. To protect her pregnancy, she kept a low profile upon leaving and moved back into Pearl’s house.

The car pulled up to the Shaw family’s modest townhouse.

Pearl was already waiting by the door. David Shaw had taken the day off to help with her bags. Only Chloe stood with her arms crossed, watching the princess step out of the car with an unimpressed

scowl.

Noelle got out, and Martha helped her with her belongings.

“Noelle, you’re back. Come inside quickly, it’s chilly out here,” Pearl hurried over, trying to take her

hand.

Noelle dodged the touch. Pearl froze, then offered an awkward smile. “Mom got a room ready for you. It faces the sun and it’s warm. Go upstairs and take a look. If you need anything else, just tell me, I’ll buy it for you.”

Noelle stared at the front door, feeling as though she had swallowed a fly.

This place couldn’t hold a candle to The Sanders Estate. The courtyard was so cramped you couldn’t even park a car in it. The plants were cheap, common varieties. The iron gate was rusted and plastered with faded decorations.

“Thank you.” Realizing she’d have to live here for the foreseeable future, she forced out the words. Lifting the hem of her dress, she stepped over the threshold and crossed the yard. One glance at her
