Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 56

Chapter 56: With Colton interrogating Allison, the one who was most nervous was not the accused, but Melany.

She had never explicitly claimed to be the Scarlet Serpent, but over the years, she had allowed others to believe it.

Correct them No one could prove otherwise, not when the real Scarlet Serpent had long since disappeared from the public scene, rumored to be over sixty years old, possibly dead.

Melany had quietly enjoyed the praise and the mystique attached to that name.

Colton, please… leave it, she whispered, her voice strained with anxiety.

In her mind, coming in third was enough.

She hadn't aimed for the top, I had played it safe.

After all, he had taken Scarlet Snake's formula, added his own tweaks, and used it to garner praise.

Only after double checking the list of participants, confirming Scarlet Snake's absence, had he dared to compete.

But now, Colton was relentless.

No way.

He won't leave after robbing you.

A knot of fear tightened in Melany's chest as she surveyed the crowd, curiosity aroused.

The air felt thick, like a storm about to break out.

This couldn't come to light.

I couldn't.

I had to act fast.

Please, everyone, this is not what it seems.
