The Abandoned Wife (Lucian) novel Chapter 2014

Chapter 2014 What Gives You The Right

Norton tried threatening and tempting her, but Lorraine remained unmoved.

Finally, she said placidly, “Norton, stop wasting your energy. Get out now. I really don't wish to see you!”

Suddenly, the veins on Norton's forehead popped as he said with a chilling gaze in his eyes, “Lorraine, if you refuse to agree, you can look forward to spending the rest of your life here.”

Upon hearing that, Lorraine let out an unfathomable laugh.

“Don't worry. That is not going to happen. My daughter will be here to save me very soon.”

“Ha! Do you really think your daughter is capable enough to take you away under my nose?” Suddenly, Mildred pushed the door open and strode into the room furiously.

As she was worried that her husband would catch feelings for his former lover again, she had been eavesdropping outside all this time.

“Mildred, I know it's hard for you to believe it, but try to have a little patience. You will receive your karma for everything you have done to harm my daughter and me!” Lorraine glared at Mildred fearlessly, her eyes filled with resentment.

Enraged, Mildred dashed past Norton and stopped in front of Lorraine before raising her hand and slapping the woman across her face.

A loud slap rang out and reverberated in the air.

“Who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to curse me?” Mildred bellowed through gritted teeth, almost choking on her rage.

The next moment, Norton pulled her back and said, "Mildred, what are you doing? Why bother arguing with someone like her!”

Almost instantly, a red palm print surfaced on Lorraine's left cheek.

Lorraine had already lost count of the number of times she had been slapped by Mildred.

As she used to be weak and cowardly, she had never dared to defend herself or retaliate. Every time it happened, all she did was cower in fear.

However, things were no longer the same. After returning from the brink of death, and in addition to her daughter's constant encouragement and support, Lorraine was no longer willing to be someone else's punching bag. She leaped to her feet at once and returned a forceful slap to Mildred.
