A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1272

"Yardley humiliated me for Starla today. How could I possibly let this go?"

Fairfax was speechless.

"Or is it that, even now, you still want to protect her?" she sneered.

To Yardley, she wasn't even an option compared to Starla. Did she not even rank above her in her own brother's eyes?

Did she really mean nothing to him either?

"Don't do anything stupid. Herbert is also in Maxlandia now!" Fairfax warned.

If what she said was true, Elmer and Yardley were fiercely guarding Starla right now.

With Herbert there too!

If she dared to touch her, none of those men would let her live.

Yardley’s attitude worried him the most.

He had forced her to stay by his side.

Yet now he was marrying into the Merlin family. He truly just saw her as a pet.

A pet...!

How could anyone from the Yelchin family be reduced to this?

...

Starla slept soundly until ten o'clock the next morning.

When she woke up, Elmer had already ordered breakfast for her.

She had been exhausted!

This was probably the best sleep she’d had in a long time.

"Dad," she called out softly upon seeing him, her voice still laced with sleep.

Elmer’s lips curved into an indulgent smile. "I was worried you'd be hungry, but I couldn't bear to wake you."

He had looked into it.

Over the recent period, she had been tossed from Cyrus Sea to Sylvan Vale, back to Cyrus Sea, and finally to Smaro Town.

The entire time, she had been a fugitive on the run.

Even when she settled in Smaro Town, she was nursing severe injuries.

In those conditions, a good night’s sleep was a luxury she couldn't afford.

"I'm actually not that hungry," she murmured.

While she was asleep, she didn't feel it.
