The Revenge of the Mute Wife Chapter 69
"We're here with Mr. Frederick Anderson, the father of Roger's ex-wife," the presenter announced. "Tell us, Mr. Anderson, what's happening right now?" "Thank you, William. Since the divorce trial, Mr. George Peterson has been sending his lawyers to extort me, claiming I owe him a substantial amount of money that he supposedly lent to my family. Not a day goes by without receiving threatening calls from him." "So, this means the Petersons are vindictive people?" "You could say so. I only hope that this recent turn of events will humble the Peterson family." "And what do you think about the news of Roger's current partner suffering a miscarriage?" "Well, he has been a violent person, and I'm thankful my daughter freed herself from him and..." "Damn it," George muttered, switching off the television. "How hypocritical. They never cared about Debbie," Elliot remarked, his brow furrowed. "I agree with Elliot. That animal only cared about coming every month to borrow money,"

Roger was struggling to gather his thoughts at that moment, consumed by fear. He didn't know what he would say to Sophia when she woke up, or how she would react to the news. "What have I done?" he berated himself, grimacing and leaning his head back against the wall. "I'm such an idiot." He sighed heavily, recalling all the events of that night. Despite everything that had happened, he still harbored doubts about who was telling the truth. But now, he couldn't ask Sophia about it. The only solution was for him to try to remember what had happened that day. To be honest, there were parts of his childhood that he didn't remember and had never bothered to recover. But now seemed like the right time to bring those memories back. Just then, he noticed Sophia stirring. Hurriedly, he approached the bed and took her hand. "Sophia..." Sophia slowly opened her eyes, looking around in confusion. "Darling... what...?" "Sophia," Roger had tears in his eyes as he gently tried to embra

"Are you sure you didn't pressure him too much? Typically, men like him would abandon their mistress and return to their real family,” said the nurse. "Deborah hates him for being a traitor, so I doubt she'll forgive him,” Sophia said. "Well, with the new guy she's got, she wouldn't go back to someone who's now broke," the nurse remarked amusedly. "Exactly," Sophia said, getting out of bed to stretch a bit. "By the way, what about the witch?" "Mr. Peterson took her away last night." "Wow, the old man finally did something good." "But, don't let your guard down, my friend." "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing.” "Oh, and while you were practically on your deathbed, your associates made their move," the nurse said, handing Sophia her phone to check the news. "What? They did... oh... interesting," Sophia commented as she watched the news about what the Andersons were up to. "Wow, this is very interesting. Now the big question is, how can I use this situation to my advanta

Deborah had a broad smile on her face as she left the doctor's office with Jayden. The examination revealed that the damage to her throat wasn't severe enough to require a risky surgery. "Technology has helped medicine a lot. This non-surgical operation is something new to me," Jayden remarked as they exited the building. [It certainly would be faster to have the surgery but I don’t want to do it because of the baby. According to the doctor, he’ll carefully remove the tissue blocking my vocal cords bit by bit, trying not to reopen the wound.] "That sounds complicated, but you seem very happy and excited about it." [I’ve been longing to hear words that give me hope for years.] "You know, now I'm going to be jealous of the doctor," Jayden commented as he opened the car door for her. [What? Why?] Deborah asked playfully as Jayden got into the car. "Because I’ve never seen that radiant smile on you before," Jayden said while buckling his seatbelt. [I’m just thrilled to rega

[It’s you!] Deborah ran to hug the redhead, a wide smile on her face. "You’ve really grown. You’re not the little girl I remember," the redhead said, amused, as he returned the hug. Jayden felt a twinge of jealousy at the sight, although the man seemed somewhat older. Caroline, on the other hand, sighed and smiled, recognizing the person. It was time to reveal the truth. Meanwhile, Elliot and Christian watched the scene intently. "Dad, who is he?" Elliot asked, eyeing the redhead curiously. "He’s a friend,” said George. "You know, I’m surprised you recognized me," the redhead said, pulling away from the hug. [It’s because you haven’t changed much.] "Oh, that’s a compliment. But you know, I haven't changed because I stole the fountain of youth," the man joked, making Deborah laugh. Jayden cleared his throat, frowning at the redhead. "And you are...?" he asked, raising an eyebrow. [Right, guys, let me introduce you to Nicholas. He was my grandfather’s best apprentice at

"That’s true, you’re your mom’s spitting image," Caroline said, leaning in to look at the photo. "Let me see," Elliot requested. "Yes, Deborah is the living image of Alexandra," Nicholas commented amusedly. "By the way, Christian..." "Yes?" Christian replied, also looking at the photo. "I heard from George that you’re looking into crushing those usurping worms," Nicholas said, looking Christian in the eye. "But if you’re relying on that old will, you won’t win." "Old will?" Christian repeated, surprised. "I think you’re mistaken, Nicholas. The copy I got was from the government archives and..." He trailed off as Nicholas handed him a folder to read. "It’s a fake will. It was created with specific terms to catch Frederick’s attention and keep him busy trying to circumvent them." "But... wait, this date..." Christian said, noticing the detail. [What’s wrong?] Deborah asked. "As a lawyer, you know that the most recent will is the valid one," George explained. "The one yo

Deborah was stunned by what she had just heard. "And to clear up that nasty accusation from earlier, I never neglected you... What I did was ask someone very special to take on that task." [What...?] "Someone's been watching over Deborah?" Jayden asked, raising an eyebrow. "Not exactly," Nicholas replied, pointing to Caroline. "I couldn't approach you directly to help because Frederick was too close. So, I asked my niece for help." [Niece…] Deborah looked at her friend, who simply smiled. "Yeah, my mom is his sister," Caroline said, stepping closer. "But before you think or do anything crazy, let me tell you that he asked me to become your friend and take care of you. Over time, though, I did it because I wanted to, not because I had to. I like you, Deborah, and you're my best friend," she said, taking Deborah's hands and looking into her eyes. Deborah was amazed by what she heard, but when she felt her friend trembling slightly and saw the fear in her eyes, Deborah simpl

Sophia felt a mix of anger and anxiety. It had been four days since she kicked out that idiot Roger, and he still hadn't returned to see her. Adding to her frustration, she found out that the medical bill hadn't been paid—the hospital was now threatening to call the police if it wasn't settled soon. "This has to be a joke! You kill your own child and now you abandon me?" She fumed, waiting for Roger to answer her call. "Damn it, pick up!" "I told you not to push him too hard," her friend mocked from beside her, flipping through a magazine. "Shut up. He loves me and owes me his life and eternal gratitude." "Doubtful. Maybe he's not coming to see you because his mom already told him the truth about your lie." Sophia hung up after the tenth unanswered call, gripped the phone tightly, and snapped at her friend, "You know, I didn't ask for your opinion." "Why don't you just use some of the money you stole from him and pay it off?" Sophia’s friend asked. "Why don’t you pay my h

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
