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.

That business is not going well does not excuse our lack of decorum.

“We went too far today,” Colton said, his breath coming hard as he remembered Kellan's cruelty.

With the image of that man's fate vivid in his mind, Colton tried to save the situation.

Lloyd.

But Melany wasn't about to let him go that easily.

He bit his lip and took a step forward.

"Mr.

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

" We shouldn't have wronged Allison.
