Chapter 324

The news eventually made its rounds among the elite, some saying that Martin, a company CEO, couldn’t even handle a bit of drama, which was quite unbecoming of a man.

But as a woman, who wouldn’t want a husband like Martin?

Over the years, despite Barbara’s blindness and deteriorating health, Martin remained by her side, their marriage an enviable blend of love and loyalty.

The only cloud over their happiness was the tragic loss of their only son, Quentin, a misfortune that stirred compassion even among the happiest of families.

Lizetta couldn’t help but step forward, looking at Barbara she said, “Mrs. Barbara, you need to take care of yourself. That way, Quinn can rest in peace, knowing you’re okay.”

Barbara’s reaction was fierce, and Lizetta, taken aback by the sudden push and Barbara’s harsh words, staggered back.
