Secrets Of The Neglected Wife

Chapter 958:

Allison answered with a cold, steady expression. “Mrs. Stevens, can’t you read?”

She tossed the medicine bottle to the doctor, who quickly examined it.

“It’s nitroglycerin,” the doctor said after checking, wiping sweat from his brow. “Mr. Stevens’ condition was critical just now. He definitely needed this medication right away.”noveldrama

Soon, Keanu’s breathing slowly returned to normal.

This wasn’t the outcome Melany had hoped for. She moved in front of Keanu, clutching her stomach, speaking with a voice full of feigned sadness. “Keanu, if you don’t want this baby, I can die with Colton. That way, you won’t have to worry about us trying to take your shares.”

Her words stunned everyone in the room. At this crucial moment, they only seemed to worsen Keanu’s condition.

“Don’t you dare!” Keanu shouted, clutching his chest as pain shot through him once again. He gasped for air, struggling to breathe.

“Take deep breaths, Keanu,” Allison urged, quickly giving him another pill. “Here, drink some water.”

Meanwhile, Melany felt a twisted sense of satisfaction. She continued to play the victim. “I just—”

But she didn’t get to finish her sentence.

Without warning, Allison stood up and slapped her across the face. Smack!

The sharp sound of the slap echoed through the entire Stevens house.

Melany’s cheek immediately turned bright red, and she collapsed onto the sofa. As she looked down, she saw that one of her teeth had been knocked loose.

“Allison, you actually hit me?” Melany gasped, blood filling her mouth as she spoke.

She opened her mouth to shout in protest, but when she met Allison’s icy gaze, the words caught in her throat.

Allison’s presence radiated a chilling, deadly threat.

“If you ever provoke him again, I won’t hesitate to end you. Try me, and you’ll see I’m not joking.”

At that moment, Melany was too frightened to say anything. When Allison spoke those final words, it truly felt as if she might kill her.

“I… I never meant to upset Keanu,” Melany stammered.

After losing a tooth, her words came out a bit slurred. Once she regained her composure, a deep sense of shame washed over her.

This was the Stevens’ house, yet Allison had actually hit her?!

“Lindy, did you see that? She’s really out for revenge and even threatened to kill me.”

Melany collapsed to the floor, tears streaming down her face as she looked at Lindy.

“I don’t care if I die, but what will happen to my poor baby?!” she sobbed.
