Married To My Ex-Husband’s Rival by Jobet GraySon

Chapter Eighty Eight

Third Person POV.

“You can think I’m afraid of him, Elena. But I’m not afraid of that idiot, and he has no power over me.

I hate him for what he did to me and Giorgia, and I’ll make him pay for everything. It’s that simple.” Richard retorted, struggling to sound confident with his words.

“Giorgia…another root cause of evil,” Elena blurted out, causing both Bianca, Richard, and Amber to

stare at her with confused looks on their faces.

“You better not speak ill of Giorgia, Elena. She’s a no–go area,” Richard warned.

“She’s a no–go area? And why’s that? Because she’s dead? So, because she killed herself, I’m not allowed to talk about it as freely as I want to?” Elena retorted.

Bianca hissed back in response. “She’s your youngest sister, Elena. Just leave her out of this conversation. Aren’t you tired?”

“Point of correction: she was my sister, Bianca. Now she’s dead, and forgive me if, unlike you guys, I don’t blame myself for what happened to her,” Elena fired back at her with a nonchalant look on her

face.

She knew they’d most likely think she was crazy with how she spoke about Giorgia, her own sister, but she just couldn’t bring herself to care any longer for Giorgia’s death. She had seen how Giorgia’s death had ruined her family even more, so she could no longer bring herself to live in the shadow of

her late sister’s death.

“Well, you’re not to blame. I am at fault for what happened to her. But regardless, stop talking about her like she wasn’t someone important in our lives. Respect her memories at the very least,” Richard quickly defended.

Elena’s scoff echoed through the room, a sharp sound that cut through the heavy silence like a blade.. She stared at Richard with a skeptical gaze, her expression a mix of incredulity and frustration as she challenged his line of thinking. “And just what makes you believe that I’m interested in still being stuck on Giorgia’s decision? Also, why do you always insist on taking the blame for something that was never yours to carry?” she demanded.
