Divorce Me Before Death Takes Me, CEO

Chapter 383

Audrey’s POV

I stood in the shower with my eyes closed. Hot water beat against my scalp, washing away egg residue that still smelled like something had died weeks ago. Three rounds of shampoo hadn’t killed the stench.

This morning should have felt like victory. I’d finally confronted the Sinclairs and exposed their lies with solid proof. Instead, I just felt empty.

I grabbed the shampoo again and poured too much into my palm. My nails dug into my scalp as I scrubbed, though the egg was long gone.
