Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 72: At first, Colton had been curious as to why Allison had hidden her talent for three long years.

But now she realized that it wasn't because of her hiding, but because of her insistence that she remain nothing more than a housewife.

He didn't quite understand his own feelings, and a flight instinct surfaced inside him, prompting him to say something provocative to Allison.

No matter how badly you try to imitate Melany, you will never be able to outshine her.

He had already thrown other similar barbs at her.

Each time, Allison quietly retreated, occasionally revealing a flash of sadness.

Colton assumed this time would be no different, hoping it would shake her from her cold facade and provoke some emotional reaction.

Even if it was rage, he longed to see her.

But Allison remained eerily calm, treating him like a simple stranger.

You hated me the same.
