The Revenge of the Mute Wife Chapter 42
The Andersons were itching to punch Deborah for the idiocy she had just spouted. They had none of that money left… In three days? They would never be able to gather the nearly $800,000 they had borrowed over the three years of marriage. The twins' plan was in shambles; they had intended to force the mute girl back home to steal her money, believing they deserved it as the beloved children of their parents. Caroline watched their faces intently, smirking as she discerned their obvious thoughts. “So… why did you come over? I doubt it’s to talk to Deborah,” Caroline commented. “Well, believe it or not, we do want to talk to her,” Cassandra insisted. “That’s right, we’re very worried about my big sister,” Ernest added. “Actually, we wanted to tell you that if you want, you can come back home, Debbie,” Vanessa said, trying to sound kind and understanding. [Oh really? And why would you want me back home?] “Deborah, come on, stop joking. We’re your family, and we’re worried abou

After escaping from the reporters, Deborah and her supporters ended up at a nearby restaurant to eat and celebrate her victory. Out of solidarity, everyone ordered juice or soda to accompany their meal, though Deborah insisted it wasn’t necessary. “Here,” said Caroline, passing Deborah a glass of orange juice. [Thank you.] “Well, let’s toast to freedom and a new beginning,” Jayden said, raising his glass of soda, and everyone followed suit. “Deborah, tell me, what will you do now?” asked George. [What do you mean?] “Well, I remember you haven’t worked, and you’re expecting my grandchild, so…” [Oh, that. Don’t worry, I have a way to survive. Thanks to a friend, I got a job behind Roger’s back.] “That’s great, Deborah. I commend your initiative. Can I ask what the job is?” [I’m an accountant. I help with a government support program.] “That is excellent, Deborah! Congratulations,” George said, noticing how his words made Deborah blush a little. “And how do you do the

Jayden explained the details of the party. For a moment, Deborah felt unsure because she had never attended such events. However, recalling her new mindset of leaving the old Deborah behind, she accepted the invitation, deciding to go and have fun with him.Thus, the day ended, feeling long for some and short for others. The only thing that mattered was that it was a day that marked the lives of many, causing a drastic shift in their way of life.The next day began with a new drama for those who had spent the most uncomfortable night of their lives. Isabelle and Roger were being released but not without fury and threats to the officers accompanying them.“Just you wait. I won’t let this go,” Roger spat angrily.“How dare they let a lady like me sleep on the floor without a sheet or pillow,” Isabelle complained.“Don’t worry, Mom, they’ll get what they deserve. Do you hear me?!”“It seems a night in prison didn’t teach you anything,” said a cold voice. They turned to see George st

"But 25 thousand is a lot and—" "So what? You were giving 19 thousand to your mistress, so it shouldn't be difficult to come up with that money for yourself." "I could pay that amount if you give me back my job." "No, Roger. That's your punishment: you'll find a job like everyone else to support your mistress and pay child support to Deborah, without my financial help." "Wait... what do you mean by finding a job?" Roger asked, alarmed. "You need to find employment because you're fired from the company." "What?!" Both Isabelle and Roger were shocked. "George, isn’t that a little excessive? Roger is your son and—" "He's an employee who skipped work without any justification." "Without justification? He was in prison!" "But that happened because he annoyed the judge, didn't he?" "George, you need to be fair." "Well, I wasn't the one who fired him, it was his direct supervisor. And I shall respect Edgar's decision." "George, you can't do this to our son and—” "I

For a moment, Roger remained in a state of shock, because he had truly lost everything. It sounded so surreal. He was the eldest son of the Peterson family, the second-richest family in the country. And now, he had become a nobody with no money or family support. All because of that stupid mute. The moment he thought about Deborah, he clenched his fists tightly, swearing to himself that this wouldn't be the end; he would reclaim everything that was rightfully his no matter how long it took. "Son..." His mother's voice interrupted his thoughts. She was very distressed about everything that was happening, especially now that she was homeless. "Take it easy, Mom," he said, approaching to hug her. "This... this is just a rough patch. Everything will be sorted out in a few days." He tried to sound confident but even he had his doubts considering how set his father seemed to be in revoking their privileges. "Come, let's go to my apartment so you can rest a bit." "Yes... you're righ

Isabelle pointed at Sophia’s belly. “You’re mistaken, dear. That will be my second grandchild,” she said. “What do you mean?” Sophia was puzzled. “Deborah is pregnant and a month ahead of you,” Roger chimed in, arms crossed. Sophia’s eyes widened. “Wait, seriously?” “Yes,” Roger confirmed. “So using the baby to win my father’s favor won’t work, Sophia. He’s publicly declared that he’ll only recognize one grandchild, and that’s Deborah’s.” “But perhaps Sophia and her little bastard can help us,” Isabelle mused. “If Sophia’s child is a boy, we might still have a chance to reclaim everything.” Sophia interjected, “Wait, why do you call my son a bastard?” “Because Peterson Group has always been passed down to the firstborn,” Roger explained. “If Sophia’s child is a boy, logically and traditionally, we can fight to regain everything for him.” Roger’s excitement grew. “But what if Deborah’s child is also a boy?” Sophia felt a knot of worry. There was a detail she hadn’t sha

After a few days, Deborah met Christian again in his office to discuss reopening her mother's case—she doubted it was an accident. Christian and his friends gathered all existing material on Alexandra Anderson as they took a seat at the table. The three of them were poring over the files, yet they found nothing useful to reopen the case. "Ah... nothing," Christian's assistant complained. "Nothing here either... Hey Deborah, do you remember anything strange or suspicious from that day?" Christian asked, slightly annoyed at how flawlessly the investigation report labeled it a car accident. [It's a bit fuzzy, but I know I was with her.] "Hey! Wait, I found something," Alan exclaimed excitedly after reading a report on his laptop. [What did you find, Alan?] "It says here that Miss Alexandra Anderson had this accident because she was drunk, but there's no evidence to support that claim." Alan showed them the report. "And here, it shows she had a life insurance policy that was

During the journey home, Deborah ordered food for everyone. Their arrival at her place coincided with the delivery driver. [Perfect timing.] Deborah chuckled as she opened the door and paid for the food. Caroline told her friend to take a shower as they entered the house. “I will serve the food.” [Yes, Mom.] Deborah replied playfully. "Hey Deborah, can I have your wifi password?" Christian asked. [I have it written down on the little pink note on my laptop.] She signed before heading to her room to shower. "Oh, thanks," Christian replied, settling into the living room to check a few things on his computer. "Oh, honey, leave work and come help me," Caroline complained upon seeing her husband engrossed in work again. "I'm coming, sweetheart. I just want to check the stock market a bit." "Are you still playing with stocks?" "Yep, since someone told me they want a little house in this area.” He gave his partner a flirtatious glance. "Christian, you—" "I'm a man of m
