The Wrong Woman



Chapter 986

It appeared that Thelma was the one responsible for splashing Imogen with dirty water.

With her face twisted in anger, Thelma viciously shouted, "Imogen, tell your mother that if she ever dares to bother my son again, I'll make you suffer. Let's see who can be more ruthless."

Suppressing her emotions, Imogen silently wiped the dirty water from her face.

Thelma and her husband, Henry Kingsley, had forcefully taken possession of their family homestead, but Imogen chose not to intervene.

Despite the ongoing conflicts between Imogen's parents and Thelma's family, she opted to stay out of the fray. Even as tensions between the two families escalated into legal battles, Imogen remained aloof.

Imogen was well aware of how these individuals preyed upon her family's vulnerabilities-her father's disability, her mother's limited education, and her own lack of academic qualifications, financial resources, and skills.

Despite enduring their constant bullying in the past, being directly drenched with dirty water was a step too far. Enough was enough.

Imogen's life seemed like a never ending series of calamities-her family's homestead had been pillaged, her educational opportunities were stolen, and even the man she loved was torn from her grasp.
