The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell novel Chapter 161

After Alexander and the others left, the staff at the stables finally relaxed, each letting out a quiet sigh of relief.

"Let's hope Miss Fletcher is alright. Did you see Mr. Davidson? He was hurt, but still looked more worried about her than himself," one whispered.

"They really seem to care about each other," another murmured.

Danielle said nothing, her expression unreadable.

Nearby, Raffy sulked with tears in his eyes, casting resentful glances at Danielle.

Taking a deep breath, Danielle lowered her gaze to the ground where the accident had just happened. The dirt still bore the mark of the fall, and a faint trace of blood lingered.

"Mom…" Niki tugged at Danielle's hand. "That was really scary. Are you sure you're not hurt?"

"I'm fine, sweetheart."

Raffy snapped, "How could she be hurt? Dad's the one who got hurt! If you hadn't been there, the horse would never have gone wild. When I was here with Mom and Dad a few days ago, everything was fine!"

"If Mom really got hurt, Dad would be devastated," Niki whispered.

Danielle's brow remained furrowed, her thoughts troubled.

Everything had happened so fast. Maybe Alexander had tried to save the wrong person in the chaos. But whether it was a mistake or not, he'd gotten hurt, and she hadn't suffered so much as a scratch.

"Stop it, Raffy! Can't you see Mom's still shaken up?" Niki snapped, her eyes rimmed with red.

Raffy puffed up in silence, refusing to speak another word.

She's not even hurt. What does she have to be upset about? he thought bitterly.

Every word stung Danielle more than she cared to admit. Compared to Alexander's coldness and betrayal, Raffy's rejection nearly suffocated her.

She'd raised this boy for five or six years, poured her heart into him, and now this was all she got in return.

If Raffy wanted to choose Millie—his birth mother—she understood. Blood ties were hard to break.

But she never expected that, instead of a shred of concern, all Raffy would offer her was resentment.
