Wife on Strike Chapter 77: Cracks in the Wall
"Nothing?"Venus's quick answer made Ramon's brows furrow even deeper.He looked at her tightly clenched hands at her sides before turning to his mother."We did nothing to her," Doris said, clearly displeased by her son's suspicion of them.Ramon remained quiet for a few seconds."I really hope it's nothing." His voice dropped slightly. "Remember what I told you, Mum."After saying that, he turned around and walked away toward where Kelsey had gone.Silence filled the room.Wanda, who had been quiet the entire time, suddenly stood up.She hurried toward Venus."What did she say to you?" She asked through clenched teeth.Kelsey's presence had shaken her badly. She had thought Kelsey was gone for good.But here she was again.And even worse, she might ruin the plan she had carefully prepared.Her father and she had planned everything for today. Knowing Ramon would be at the family mansion, they had arranged everything in advance.But now Kelsey was here.Wanda shook her head.She didn'
Wife on Strike Chapter 76: Crippled Wings
"At least I'm not a mistress to a married man."The words entered Venus's ears like a bolt of lightning.Her entire body froze.The anger on her face disappeared instantly. Her pupils contracted.For a long moment, she simply stared at Kelsey.Unable to move, speak or even breathe.The living room fell strangely silent.Doris and Wanda frowned in confusion.Neither of them had heard what Kelsey said. All they saw was Venus suddenly freeze in place.Kelsey watched her calmly. A faint smile tugged at the corner of her lips.So she was right.Venus had never expected her secret to be discovered."What's wrong?" Kelsey asked softly. Only Venus could hear her. "Surprised?"Venus's lips parted slightly, but no words came out. Her face had already gone pale.Kelsey took another step closer.The smile on her face widened."Who would have thought?" she whispered. "The almighty Venus Holloway."Kelsey's eyes slowly traveled over her."The woman who always looked down on me and called me shamel
Wife on Strike Chapter 75: The Storm Begins
As they walked toward the entrance, Kelsey could hear faint voices coming from inside.She took a deep breath and smiled at Kendrick, who was tugging on her hand excitedly.The moment they entered the living room, the voices stopped instantly.All eyes turned toward her.Kelsey's gaze moved across their faces.She saw the different expressions flashing in their eyes.Wanda's eyes widened in shock.Venus looked disgusted.Collins shifted uncomfortably in his seat, probably still embarrassed by what Kelsey had said to him about her father the last time.As for Doris, her expression was complicated."Grandma!" Kendrick's voice broke the tense atmosphere. He slipped his hand from Kelsey's and ran toward Doris. "Daddy told me you were sick, but you're well now.""My little Ken."Doris immediately opened her arms for him."Be careful. Mum isn't that strong yet." Wanda's worried voice rang out, but she didn't dare touch Kendrick.Kelsey rolled her eyes inwardly.She couldn't stand Wanda's fak
Wife on Strike Chapter 74: The Return
Some hours later...Before Kelsey realized it, it was already evening, and they were ready to leave for the family mansion.She reluctantly left the room only to see Ramon waiting for her right outside."I was wondering what was keeping you," Ramon said softly.His eyes moved from her face to her dress and then to her shoes. His gaze dimmed slightly."You aren't wearing the one I picked out for you."Didn't she see it? he asked himself.But the answer came immediately.He was sure she had seen it. He had left the box on the table where he used to keep things for her in the past.So it could only mean one thing.She simply didn't want to wear it.His chest tightened for a second.He had specifically picked a dress for her from one of their latest fashion releases. He had been certain it would look good on her.Not that the one she was wearing didn't suit her."You look beautiful," he said, brushing aside his disappointment.But he got no reaction from her.Instead, Kelsey stretched out
Wife on Strike Chapter 73: A shoulder to Lean On
The ocean stretched endlessly before them.The waves rolled toward the shore one after another, their rhythmic sound filling the silence between them.Kelsey sat quietly on the wooden bench. Her hands rested on her lap.Beside her, Dimitri sat unusually still.The sea breeze brushed against Kelsey's face.She lowered her eyes.Ever since they left Doctor Harrison's residence, her emotions had been a mess.She kept replaying everything in her head. The possibility that her father might finally receive treatment from someone who actually understood his condition and was known for it made her chest ache.A tear escaped before she could stop it, and she quickly wiped it away, pretending that nothing had happened.A few seconds later, another followed.She lowered her head even more and wiped it away.She didn't want Dimitri to notice.But Dimitri had already noticed.Of course he had.His eyes shifted toward her."You know," he finally said. His voice was quieter than usual. "I didn't bri
Wife on Strike Chapter 72: A Surprise She Never Expected
The car slowly rolled to a stop in front of a large residence.Kelsey looked out through the window. Her brows furrowed even more in confusion. The place didn't look like a company. It wasn't a restaurant either.The property was quiet and elegant, surrounded by neatly trimmed hedges and tall trees."Why are we here?" she asked Dimitri, making no attempt to leave the car.Dimitri unfastened his seatbelt."You'll find out soon."Kelsey didn't like the answer. Throughout the ride, Dimitri had been quiet, which wasn't how she knew him to be. They used to make a little small talk, but today he was giving off a cold vibe."What do you mean?"Dimitri smiled faintly. "It means exactly what I said."Kelsey's eyes narrowed. She could tell the smile was forced, which made her heart feel uneasy. She wondered what could be wrong."You're being suspicious," she said as she unfastened her own seatbelt.They both got out of the car.Kelsey felt no fear as she followed him. She had a strong feeling t
Wife on Strike Chapter 5: The Fall.
Kelsey stepped out of her room after changing into the dress. The soft fabric brushed gently against her skin as she carefully held the side of the gown, afraid she might accidentally step on it. For a moment, she stood quietly outside her door. It had been a very long time since she dressed up
Wife on Strike Chapter 4: The Woman Beside Him
The following morning, the Ivory Mansion was already busy because of Doris’s birthday party later that evening.Servants moved around carrying flower decorations and expensive gift boxes.Kelsey was already in the kitchen, her hands submerged in cold water as she scrubbed the marble counter for the
Wife on Strike Chapter 3: She Almost Killed Him
Kelsey fell hard to the floor, her palm scraping painfully against the marble tiles.Her cheek burned badly from the two slaps Doris had given her, and before she could even recover, another harsh voice rang through the living room.“How dare you come back here after what you did to Kendrick?!”Kel
Wife on Strike Chapter 2: The Mother They Refused to See
Kelsey had almost reached their table when Ramon came rushing back into the shop like a storm.He brushed past her without even looking at her and immediately knelt in front of Kendrick.“Kendrick, look at me,” Ramon said worriedly while checking his condition.The little boy was still struggling t
