Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 32

Chapter 32: Colton's confidence collapsed as he took in Kellan's icy demeanor.

In that instant, the cockiness he had carried moments ago vanished.

Suddenly he remembered Kellan's reputation: a man you can't betray.

It had been years since Colton had first heard of Kellan.

While dining out for a business meeting, he witnessed a man being dragged out of a restaurant and thrown onto the freezing street, soaked and shivering.

Colton's supplier, who was regarding him with a mixture of disdain and sympathy, had murmured: Of all the people to offend, he had to choose that devil.

Colton later learned that Kellan had ordered the man to be immersed in subzero water repeatedly in the cold winter, a brutal and cold-blooded act.

The man's company, once a strong competitor, disappeared from Ontdale shortly after, vanishing without a trace.

Lloyd," he began softly, his voice heavy with mock regret, "it's our fault.
