Lewis Sinclair had never t anyone more shaless than this evil woman! What she did to his late wife didn’t deserve prison as punishnt but heavenly retribution.
Jessica’s cries, which sounded so fake, made Lewis Sinclair’s blood boil even more. He couldn’t stay in this room for too long, or for the first ti, he might take soone’s life.
He had a strong urge to give a powerful slap to this shaless woman, but he resisted.
"Why are you so evil? Even though I’ve been very good to you. I accepted you as part of my family despite your lowly background. We never saw you differently. But how did you repay ? You beca the mastermind responsible for my wife’s death.
Why did you do that, Jessica? Why?"
"Father, I’m not—" Jessica’s voice was lost between her sobs.
"Stop lying! Why did you do it, Jessica? Tell ! Why did you hate my wife enough to poison her and kill her slowly? How could you even think of such a thing?"
Lewis could no longer hold back his frustration. Tears began to roll down his cheeks as he rembered how miserably his wife suffered, dying from undetected poison.
"Father, please, your blood pressure..." William Sinclair said softly, worried when he saw how red his father’s face was.
Ignoring his son, Lewis continued, his eyes still fixed on Jessica. "I can no longer let you stay in my family, Jessica. There is no place for you here. And, starting today, you have no right to use my na."
Lewis then looked at his son, "Will, I won’t say anything else to her. Speaking and sharing the sa room with her shortens my life. You handle her as I said..." He said.
No words could describe Lewis Sinclair’s current feelings. He was devastated and furious, having learned that his wife was poisoned by his own daughter-in-law. The woman they once considered family turned out to be a demoness.
He could feel the pain seeping into his heart and bones as he left the room.
He needed to leave imdiately before he did sothing he would regret. He refused to stoop so low as to kill Jessica.
At that mont, he longed to find solace in his great-grandson, Daxton.
"Master..." Alan was taken aback by how distressed his master looked. He quickly reached out his hand to support him as they left the house. "Should we go back ho, Master?"
"No. Please, take to Little Heaven. I want to see Bella and Dax."
"Yes, sir..."

Jessica knelt on the floor, facing her husband.
Her tears flowed heavily as she stared at him, sitting there without saying anything. He seed to have beco one with the sofa.
If she couldn’t see the look in his eyes, radiating disappointnt and disgust, she would believe her husband was part of the sofa.
’He must be disappointed in ,’ Jessica thought in worry.
She could only kneel and plead to soften William’s heart. She knew her husband’s weakness: seeing her cry. His heart would surely lt, as usual.
"Will, you have to believe , please," Jessica sobbed as she held onto his feet. "How could I do such a crazy thing? You know how much I’ve given to your family, right?"
Still, no words ca from William Sinclair’s lips. He only stared at her with the sa disgusted look.
"Husband, don’t believe what Bella said, please. That woman only hated . That’s why she slandered . She wanted to take revenge on because I despised her in the past. But you know why I hated her, right? I just wanted our family to have a successor."
Jessica gritted her teeth, looking at William, who still gave her the silent treatnt.
"Bella is not a good wife for Tristan. I believe her child is not Tristan’s—"
"ENOUGH!!"
Jessica’s words abruptly stopped. Her eyes widened as she looked at William, finally speaking, but his expression was unlike anything she had ever seen.
"Stop speaking. Everything coming out of your mouth is a lie, Jessica! You know that!"
"Will, how could you not believe ?" Jessica’s tears rolled down her cheeks again, and she felt hurt hearing her husband’s anger. "How could you believe that woman over ? I’m your wife, Will. I’ve spent almost all my life with you."
Her cry grew louder, leaving William Sinclair even more speechless. Only now did he realize how shaless and manipulative this woman was.
He had never witnessed this side of her before. She always appeared graceful, loving, and beautifully calm. Her love for his family convinced him that she was perfect for him.
In his eyes, her only flaw was her hatred toward Bella and the Donovan family. However, she always made excuses whenever he asked, saying that the Sinclairs needed a successor and Bella wasn’t yet pregnant. That’s why he agreed when she forced their son to divorce Bella.
Even though he had heard the voice recording, William still hoped his wife wasn’t as evil as his father described.
However, listening to her now, the doubts in his heart faded, and his view of this woman instantly changed.
Gritting his teeth, William said, "Jessica Harris, listen, I will divorce you—"
"NO! NO! I WON’T ACCEPT!" Jessica roared in panic. She would never agree to it. Never!
"You can’t refuse, Jessica. You should have known that the mont you planned to harm my mother, you sealed your fate," William said.
William felt sad and hurt by his own words. Still, he tried hard not to show any sadness before this woman.
"No, I won’t accept it, William, because I didn’t do it. I never did. Trust , huh?" Jessica shalessly pleaded. She would never admit anything.
William no longer cared about what she said. He stood from his seat, feeling exhausted from talking with her.
"Wait, wait, William!" Jessica shouted as she tried to stand up and catch him.
Jessica managed to hold William’s feet. While crying, she said, "Please, give a chance to prove it to you. Huh? Please—"
