Chapter 299 Silence No More

Jade turned to the aunt who had been screaming the loudest. Her voice was a cold, sharp blade.

“The ‘sweet’ act was a lie?”

The woman flinched, then threw her shoulders back.

“Obviously!”

“If I hadn’t been ‘sweet,’ how would you have spent the last three years insulting me? How would you have ordered me around like a dog?” Jade stepped closer, her voice dropping into a dangerous, icy register.

“You all thought I was a pushover. You thought you could say whatever you wanted and I’d just smile and take it. When I was Hudson’s wife, I tolerated you because I respected the family. But I’m not a Walter anymore. Why the hell should I tolerate a group of vultures with no manners? Because of your money? Your names? You’re all talk and no class.”

‘You… you…!” The woman was hyperventilating, pointing a shaking finger at Jade’s face.

Jade’let out a short, jagged laugh. “This whole house is full of ‘elites, and not one of you knows the meaning of the word respect. t’s pathetic.”

‘Jade!”

Bert roared, his face livid. He moved to reclaim his authority, looming over her.

‘You’ve lost your damn mind! If John wasn’t turning seventy today, you wouldn’t have even made it through the gate! Out of espect for my father, I’m giving you one chance. Get the cleaning supplies and fix this mess!”

He acted as if he were being generous, as if his command were a lifeline.

lade met his gaze with a look of pure contempt. “If it weren’t for John, I wouldn’t have set foot in this toxic hellhole! You started his the second I walked in. You treated me like a maid to amuse your cousins. I tried to stay quiet for John’s sake, but you just ouldn’t help yourself. I defended myself, Bert. If you don’t like the result, look in the mirror.”

You… you arrogant little…” Bert was shaking with rage, his chest heaving.

de ground his teeth, his eyes boring into hers.

I never realized you were this vicious.”

Is that what you call it? Vicious? Because I’m not standing here waiting for you to spit on me?” Jade didn’t hold back. She turned er gaze to Hudson.

You only have a problem when I speak up. Where was your voice when Hudson was keeping a woman in a separate house? Where vere your ‘standards’ when he was humiliating me in public? You all bullied me because it was easy. What did I ever do to you?”

she thought back to the years of silence and felt a wave of nausea.

She wasn’t the one who was wrong. Being kind wasn’t a sin.

The sin belonged to the predators who mistook her kindness for weakness.

She realized now that respect was a mirror-you only gave it to those who reflected it back.

To the Walters, she would give exactly what they had given her.

She took a deep breath, her eyes burning as she let out three years of suppressed agony in one final roar.

“I am not the problem! You are!”

Bert couldn’t handle the truth being shouted in front of his peers. Public embarrassment was his greatest fear.

The fury reached a breaking point. He lunged forward, his hand swinging toward her face in a violent arc.

“You brat!”

The relatives leaned in, their eyes bright. They were finally going to see her punished.
