Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 286: Lindy was seething with fury as she glared at Melany.

You! Her anger was so intense that her words stumbled, unable to form a coherent thought.

Melany, however, wore an expression that radiated innocence, almost like a wolf in sheeps clothing.

Lindy, cant you see? In this house, Im the only one who truly cares about you.

Being overshadowed by Allison had been a bitter pill for Melany to swallow, and Lindys comments had hit a raw nerve.

The sweeter Melanys smile became, the sharper her words turned.

Besides, Ive joined the Stevens Group and snagged the role of General Manager.

Im going to ensure the Group thrives under my stewardship.

The sarcasm in her voice was like a dagger aimed straight at Lindys heart, nearly making her faint from rage.

What was Melany implying about the Stevens Group flourishing under her leadership? Was it just a power play, with Melany having some leverage over her, giving her the audacity to walk all over Lindy? With a cold sneer, Lindy shot back, Well, youd better work hard.

But to me, youre not even a shadow of Allison! The displeasure dripped from her words like venom.

You have spirit.

Even if youre a bit clueless, at least youre stubborn.

Melany felt a sharp stab of discomfort whenever anyone dared to compare her to Allison.
