Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 254: Allisons eyes flashed coldly as she looked at Colton.

Mr.

Stevens, she began, her voice dripping with sarcasm.

Shouldnt you at least have the decency to keep your word? But then again, if youd prefer not to admit it now, Im sure the audience will only continue to grow.

Rebecca chimed in, Exactly! So, I suggest you apologize quickly before this gets even more embarrassing.

Colton was caught off guard by Allisons unflinching resolve.

Off to the side, Melany frowned.

Allison, dont you think this is going a little too far? Colton was your husband, after all.

Publicly humiliating him like this is a bit harsh, dont you think? Yes, he lost, but he made that bet in the heat of the moment.

Melany felt a knot of frustration tighten in her chest.

She had been wary about the wager from the start and had wanted to stop Colton, but it involved the jade, and Coltons confidence had blinded him.

In her heart, she had hopedprayedthat he would defeat Allison.

But he didnt even crack the top ten! What an embarrassment! Coltons expression darkened.

Sometimes, its better to leave a way out.

Besides, there was an unexpected issue during the competition.
