The Revenge of the Mute Wife Chapter 161
"That's right, it was in the news. She got drunk and crashed the car with her daughter inside.""I thought she did it out of spite when she found out Frederick had kids with someone else.""Poor woman."Vanessa scowled when she heard the gossip. She hated being labeled as the mistress, especially since it wasn't true."Order in the court," the judge demanded, silencing the murmurs from the audience."First, we investigated what we had at hand," Alistair continued, setting his folder aside. "Luckily, the vehicle and the evidence collected were still intact. When we reanalyzed the car, we found that its operating system had been damaged, and the brakes were completely non-functional.""Was that damage caused by the crash?" Roberts asked skeptically."No," Alistair replied, as photos of the wreck were projected onto the screen. "Based on the way the vehicle crashed, there was no way the brakes and control panel could have been damaged in that manner."Deborah felt a lump form in h

"That’s a lie—" Frederick began to protest, standing up in an attempt to keep up his act, despite being backed into a corner."It’s true!" someone shouted from the crowd, leaping to their feet. "Now I remember you! You’re the miserable bastard who took advantage of my uncle. I couldn't find you because you changed your name and dyed your hair!" The person pointed accusingly at Frederick as they tried to push through the crowd to reach him, intent on giving him a beating."Order! Officers!" the judge called out, signaling the police in the room to restrain the person disrupting the trial."I remember you now too!" a woman shouted, pointing at Vanessa. "You’re the filthy witch who tricked my grandfather, pretending to be a nurse so you could kill him, steal his pension, his savings, and everything of value in his house. And now I see where all that stolen money went," she spat, glaring at Vanessa with disgust and hatred."That scumbag played my aunt the same way. He pretended to be h

"Objection!" Frederick stood, fists clenched."Mr. Turner, be quiet! One more outburst, and I'll have you thrown back in prison. You’re not a lawyer, so you have no right to object," the judge reprimanded him sharply.Frederick felt cornered, and he loathed it. To make matters worse, the idiot they had for a lawyer wasn’t helping at all; he was just sitting there, silently listening to everything being said about them."Don’t worry, Frederick. Even if you wanted to object, your friend has already confessed his crimes and even provided us with some very interesting information that I’d like to share with everyone here," Alistair said, pulling a voice recorder from his coat and pressing play.“Welcome to your new home, Alan—or should I keep calling you Cameron?”“Bastard! What you’re doing to me is inhumane.”“Inhumane? I think you’re confused. We’re just giving you a little lesson. The real inhuman ones are you and your little group of friends, who harmed so many innocent people f

As the tape ended, the courtroom fell silent as everyone tried to process what they had just heard."It’s worth noting that Alan Miller was kind enough to provide us with the name of that doctor. He’s currently in police custody while we conduct the necessary investigations," Alistair said.Frederick and Vanessa were terrified. That idiot really had betrayed them by spilling everything to Alistair. They could feel their victory slipping through their fingers. All their so-called friends had betrayed them, and on top of that, they were stuck with a useless lawyer who was doing nothing to help."You… you were going to do what?!" Jayden's voice broke the silence, his shout reverberating through the courtroom as he stood, fists clenched, ready to attack the bastards who had planned to destroy his fiancée and steal his child."Jayden," Deborah called, standing up as well."Jayden, calm down, please. They’re not worth it," Caroline said, rising alongside Christian and the assistant to r

Deborah’s gaze landed on the policeman standing next to the judge, and she froze. Something about him was eerily familiar. It didn’t take long for her to recognize him—he wasn’t a policeman at all. He was the bodyguard who had been with Brandon the day she was kidnapped.Realizing this, she quickly turned to scan the audience. If that man was here, then maybe he was too.“Debbie, love, what’s wrong?” Jayden asked, noticing how she had suddenly turned to look at the crowd.“Well, since there are no further questions, I believe we’ve seen enough,” the judge began, drawing everyone’s attention. “It’s clear,” he said, glaring at the defendants, “that you two are guilty.”“What?!” Vanessa exclaimed.“This trial is rigged!” Frederick shouted, jumping to his feet. “You can’t just declare that outcome yourself; it’s the jury who decides!” He pointed an accusing finger at the judge, desperately clinging to their last backup plan.“Heh, now you’re suddenly an expert on the law?” Christian

Once the crowd had calmed down, the officers guided everyone out of the courtroom one by one, thoroughly checking each person to rule them out as suspects.“My love...” Jayden pulled Deborah into a tight embrace as she trembled in his arms.“They’ll go after James,” she whispered in a panic, her breathing growing increasingly erratic with fear.“Debbie... sweetheart, that won’t happen. You need to calm down. Do it for James,” Jayden urged, gently patting her back.“Jayden, Deborah,” Caroline called out as she approached with a few paramedics.“Come this way,” one of the medics instructed, guiding Deborah to a chair so they could check her blood pressure.“Breathe slowly. Try to relax.”“Jayden, it’s best if you take Deborah to a private room where they can finish examining her. I’ll also post some officers outside to keep watch,” Alastor said. “Don’t worry. We’ll catch them.”“Jayden, Deborah,” Nicholas arrived just then, looking flustered.“Dad...” she hugged him tightly, tea

“I don’t understand,” Deborah said, her confusion evident.“Deborah, I’ll just tell you this,” Brandon said firmly. “What happened today was meant to happen. It was all part of the plan. Right now, the three of us have a common enemy.”“A common enemy?” Deborah asked, her gaze shifting to Herman.“Do you remember what I asked that detective during the trial?” Herman asked.Deborah paused, her eyes widening as realization dawned. “Is it about the girl they killed?”“At that time, I was a troubled young man living on the edge, helping my family,” Herman explained. “Despite being only sixteen, I was about to become a father and was incredibly happy about it. But then I suddenly lost both my beloved and my baby girl. They kidnapped her because of her blood type, intending to steal my baby girl from her mother’s womb. And because they were careless in their procedure… they killed both of them. Out of fear of the consequences, they abandoned their bodies in a rundown motel.”“That’s ex

Slowly, Frederick and Vanessa began to wake up, disoriented and confused. None of them could recall what had happened or how they ended up there. Everything was a blur—their last memory was fleeing through the crowd to avoid going to prison after losing their case.As they opened their eyes, Frederick and Vanessa noticed they were inside a luxury car equipped with state-of-the-art technology. “Love, where… where are we?” Vanessa asked, looking around in an attempt to recall.“I don’t know, Vanessa,” Frederick said, his mood brightening as he saw they were alone in the car. Looking back, he saw two gym bags. When he opened them, he found stacks of money inside. “Yes!”“Love, is this a dream?” she asked, excitement in her voice. “It looks like Vox set up the whole trial to make that idiot think he won, and he’s helping us escape.”“It seems so,” Frederick said, closing the bag and settling back into his seat. “Who would have thought he’d be stupid enough to give us all this?”“May

Extra 40: A Happy and Perfect Life Part 1Time began to pass quickly, bringing good, bad, and sad moments that gradually changed the family.One good thing that happened was that after much reflection, Roger managed to make peace with his father, asking for forgiveness for all the stupid things he had done when he was younger. He also apologized to his little brother for being such a jerk.Even though he didn’t want to, Elliot reluctantly accepted the apologies because his wife convinced him that holding onto grudges wasn’t healthy.Unfortunately, the Peterson family only got to celebrate being united for a short period of time because two weeks after that reconciliation… George passed away of natural causes.That was a tragic moment for everyone, one that shook his friends, reminding them of how precious and short life is. Those who suffered the most from the loss of their Grandpa George were Howard and Fiona. But their parents, uncles, and maternal grandparents showered them wit

Extra 39: Deborah and JamesAfter lunch, and taking advantage of when his father taking his little siblings to their extracurricular activities, James sought out his mom to talk with her.“Mom,” he called out when he saw her in her study, reading some papers.“Hey, come in,” she said, looking up and setting aside the documents for a moment.“More work?”“Not exactly. These are the reports of the current buildings for sale in the city.”“Huh… are you already looking into that?”“Well, son, your sister graduates next year, and a year is not a lot of time to start a company from scratch.”“Will it already be furnished for her?” he asked, taking the documents to read them.“Yes, that’s why I want to buy a warehouse to remodel or a vacant lot so you and your dad can work your magic to build it and make it just like Elizabeth wants.”“It’s a project I can’t wait to start,” James said excitedly.“Your little siblings are also helping me, looking into sewing stores to buy industrial

Extra 38: A Father’s FearsHonestly, it was a strange conversation for James, one he never thought he’d have… in fact, not even in his wildest dreams did he imagine having this kind of interaction with the man who was supposedly his biological father.After telling him a bit about his school life, James paid the bill and said goodbye to Roger, as he had to get back to the office; he didn’t want to be away from work for too long.When he entered the conference room, he saw his father talking to some other architects.“Great, we’re all set then,” Jayden said, dismissing them. “Son, how did it go?” he asked as James approached him.“Fine, but it was weird.”“So... has he started to feel his age?”“I think so,” James replied, making a face.“And what did he want?”“Well, he just started talking to me, apologizing for being absent, and now he wants us to meet up to talk because he wants to get to know me,” James said, scratching his head. “I don’t know… it seemed odd that he wants

Extra 37: A Late Talk Part 2“Wow, sorry for the confusion.”“Don’t worry about it. My family supported me, and thanks to learning the truth, I understood why we had three grandfathers.”“I imagine you became an architect because of Jayden.”“That’s right. My motivation was seeing how his drawings came to life… it excited me to the point where I wanted to do the same, and as the days went by, that desire grew stronger, so I decided to make it a reality,” he said, his excitement evident in his words. “Though I also saw that Uncle did something similar by turning his sketches into beautiful jewelry, but that didn’t impress me as much.”“I see, but didn’t my dad teach you the basics of the company?”“Yes, Grandpa showed me the trade,” James said with a smile. “In fact, I’m a good appraiser, and I know how to make jewelry because Uncle also taught me the basics of jewelry design and creation. But I see that as a hobby because the only jewelry I’ve made has been for my mom, my sisters

Extra 37: A Late Talk Part 1“I’ll ask you again. What are you doing here?” James questioned, frowning slightly.“James… I…” Roger stammered nervously, his words catching in his throat and refusing to come out.“Are you here to apologize on behalf of your daughter?”“Something like that,” he said, finally managing to speak, though he made a face. “Would you let me talk to you?”“To me?” James asked, confused, pointing to himself. “About what?”“Can I invite you for a drink so we can talk?”“What do you want with my son?” At that moment, Roger saw his longtime rival approaching and standing next to the young man.“Jayden, please let me talk to James,” Roger pleaded.The now platinum-blonde looked confused at his rival. It was the first time Roger had called him by his name, and he could see that Roger seemed genuinely sorry and defeated. Jayden let out a sigh. “James, go with him.”“What?” James looked at him, surprised and confused.“Are you serious?” Roger said, a note of h

Extra 36: Late Regrets Part 2The next morning, during breakfast, Roger was focused on his phone, determined to reach out to James and be the one to make the first contact.“Hey, Dad,” Cassandra called out, trying to get his attention, noticing he was more focused on his phone than his breakfast.“What is it?” Roger asked, looking up.“Well... hey, what are we going to do about last night?”“What?” he said with a frown.“Come on, Dad, aren’t you going to do something about Grandpa and—”“Casandra, enough... I think whatever happened last night should have made the situation clear.”“But…”“They no longer see me as family, and they never recognized you as such, so just forget about it because it’s only the three of us, no one else.”“No…”“Cassandra, enough,” her mother scolded. “I told you yesterday not to go, and all you did was humiliate yourselves in public,” she said, looking her daughter in the eyes. “Grow up already. You lost that boy because you chased something that

Extra 36: Late Regrets Part 1Roger didn’t return home for the rest of the night. He ignored the cries of his ‘daughter’ as he headed to the nearest bar to have a drink and try to clear his mind.Seeing his father defeated and exhausted had made him stop and think.While sipping his third beer, he raised his gaze and saw his reflection in the mirror behind the bar, realizing that an old man was staring back at him... which scared him. He now looked at his hands, which had more wrinkles than he remembered. When had he changed so much?His once beautiful hair was now streaked with gray, his face showed his age, and he had dark circles under his dull eyes.When had he gotten so old?And why did he look like this?He was supposed to age gracefully, but that wasn’t the case... because what he saw in that mirror was a shell of the successful man he once was.He thought back to James. That boy had surpassed him in height; he was the version of himself Roger had always wanted to be: ta

Extra 35: Total BreakElliot was furious to see Roger and his daughter at the party.“Why did you hurt my daughter?” Roger hadn’t recognized James and just wanted to help his princess. “Who do you think you are…?” Then he saw James and, how could he not recognize him? He was Roger’s spitting image, giving the latter the same hateful look Roger himself wore.“I should ask you the same thing, sir. Who do you think you are, crashing a private event?” James asked.Roger was about to respond, but…“What’s the meaning of this?” George asked, approaching them.“Grandpa, they attacked me, and…” Cassandra started to say.“Miss, don’t call my grandpa ‘Grandpa,’” declared Howard.“Tom, call security,” Eric ordered. “Get these two out of the party.”Among the guests, a blond young man recognized Cassandra but didn’t go to help her because his parents didn’t allow it. They didn’t want to end up caught in the middle of the problem and become collateral damage, nor did they want to fall out
