The Prison-Made Queen novel Chapter 358

“Dad, Mom! The Sherwood house is unbearable! You have no idea how they’ve been treating me.”

Hackett frowned. “What’s going on?”

Tamara, sobbing between words, truthfully recounted her house arrest by Gloria, looking aggrieved and terrified.

“Mrs. Sherwood gives me attitude every day, and Milford won’t even look at me. Since the wedding, he... he hasn’t even stepped foot in our bedroom...”

Zadie patted her back sympathetically. “My poor daughter, you’ve suffered so much...”

However, Hackett’s face darkened, and he lectured Tamara. “Tamara, this isn’t the time to be willful!”

He raised his voice, his tone stern. “The Sherwoods are helping us clean up the PR disaster on the trending topics. If you cause a scene now, all our previous efforts will be wasted!”

Tamara bit her lip, unwilling to accept it. “So I just have to swallow my pride and stay silent?”

Zadie sighed, taking her hand to persuade her. “Tamara, a little impatience will spoil great plans. Milford is cold to you right now simply because the wedding incident embarrassed him. Men are simple; just coax him a little. Go along with him, take it slow...”

Tamara clenched her fingers, her nails digging deep into her palms. Endure? When had she ever had to suffer such grievances?

But seeing the grave expressions on her parents’ faces, she eventually lowered her head and let out a muffled, “Okay.”
