A Widow's Poison A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 721

"Even with their relationship laid bare like this..."

Caden Larson didn't dare interfere with Fairfax Yelchin's affairs during his recent fallout with Starla Lansbury.

But now, things had spiraled completely out of control.

Caden was genuinely dumbfounded.

"Are you on your way back now?" Starla's voice came through the phone.

"Yes," Caden replied, sounding thoroughly deflated.

He was terrified that if he upset her even a fraction more, she would vent all her pent-up rage meant for Fairfax onto him.

And there was plenty of rage to go around.

Fairfax had vanished without signing the divorce papers, leaving Starla in limbo. And God only knew where he had gone.

What the hell was he playing at? He was deliberately dragging her down with him! He hadn't had a good time recently, and now, at the bitter end, he was making sure Starla wouldn't have a good time either. Especially considering Herbert's obvious feelings for her!

Now, it wasn't just Starla who was seething; Herbert was definitely fuming as well...

Caden suddenly felt like the concept of "brotherhood" was a complete scam. Fairfax had completely thrown him under the bus!

"What time did you arrive in Hansville City?" Starla asked.

"Two hours ago!" Caden answered honestly, not daring to hide a single detail.

He knew perfectly well that he had committed a massive blunder in her eyes.

Just as he opened his mouth to apologize again, she hung up, completely denying him the chance.

Listening to the dial tone, Caden felt a chill crawl up his spine.

He quickly dialed Fairfax's number.

*Beep, beep.* Then, the line went dead.

Caden stared at his phone.

Wait, what did that mean?

He dialed again.

Same thing. Two beeps, then disconnected.

Had he... been blocked?

"Fuck! I treated you like a brother, and you screw me over?" Caden was about to explode.

It was bad enough that Fairfax had dragged him into this mess.

But to block him right after?

He quickly pulled over to a safe spot and frantically texted Starla.
