A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 983

Taking on men like Yardley and Herbert was no walk in the park. Their minds were labyrinthine, their strategies ruthless.

But Starla was no longer the naive girl she once was. Her recent tactical suggestions to Amos proved that once she detached her emotions, she was more than capable of dragging her enemies straight down into the abyss. Hadn't Herbert and Yardley already stumbled into the traps she had meticulously set?

She was playing for keeps.

Instead of answering Romy, Starla simply flashed a cold, enigmatic smile.

...

Romy relayed the message to Amos, who immediately updated Fairfax Yelchin.

Fairfax, now well on his way to full recovery, frowned deeply when he heard Starla's bold claim. "How exactly does she plan on stalling them?"

"She wouldn't say, and Romy doesn't know either. She just told me to focus entirely on eliminating Licht tonight."

Having someone distract Herbert and Yardley was an absolute godsend. Both men were currently aligned with Licht, and if they intervened, the assassination attempt could turn into a bloodbath for Amos's men.

Fairfax rubbed his throbbing temples. "What kind of tactic do you think she'll use?"

Amos was stumped. "I have no idea. But based on how she's been operating lately, when she sets her mind to something, she plays dirty."

Fairfax's expression darkened. "Call Romy. Tell Starla we don't need her help."
