A Widow's Poison A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 680

"Alright, it's almost over anyway."

Everything was drawing to a close.

Watching Starla walk safely through the gates, Herbert turned to Rudolf in the front seat. "Send more men to the perimeter."

"Understood," Rudolf nodded.

Fairfax had been pushed to his absolute limit by Starla. He wasn't a man who took humiliation lightly. The only reason he had endured it this long was likely due to lingering emotional ties. But now? With everything shattered and the endgame approaching, who knew if those ties were enough to hold him back from snapping?

...

The moment Starla stepped inside, Garret approached her. "Did Mr. Shipley call you?"

"No. Why?" she asked, looking at him curiously.

"Darleen managed to contact Kael Shipley's wife."

Starla let out a dry laugh. "I really underestimated their resourcefulness."

When Garret had previously mentioned that Darleen and Xenia were hunting for Mrs. Shipley's contact info, Starla had brushed it off. How could two disgraced women reach someone all the way in Yoran Country?

Apparently, desperation bred competence.

"Did Mrs. Shipley call to complain?" Starla asked.

Garret shook his head. "No. When Darleen reached out, Mrs. Shipley simply replied with two words: 'I know.'"

Starla smirked. "That's a perfect response."
