Chapter 35
It was excruciating. She buried her fingers in her upper arms, hoping it would give her enough warmth to stay conscious
The chill seeping into her bones that causes her body to shudder uncontrollably is nothing compared to the searing pain creeping into her heart as it crumbles her world
Galvin, displaying his affection for Fiona by using his body as a shield, is like a hundred daggers digging deep into her chest.
Kristel lowered her head and stifled her sobs. She was already looking pitiful after she was pushed into the pool. Therefore, she would not let this incident make her Took pathetic, being abandoned by a husband for an old flame.
“You are asiding me what’s the matter?”
Kristel was about to tum around to leave the hall when Gloria’s thundemus mar echoed throughout the fourcomers. She raised her head and stared at the older Tady adoringly. She could see that Gloria was too angry at how het lace tumed crimson red
In the past year, she never felt wrong when the was not introduced to the public as a granddaughter–in–law to the Hudsons because Gloria was too kind to her. Therefore, it surprised her when the older lady made such a revelation that shocked the rest of the guests, including Michelle
Gloria said, “You bastard! You are so wonted about an insignificant woman that does not belong to this family, but you just let someone bully your wife Is that how I raised you for the past 26 years? It looks like all my efforts have gone down the drain! You have become a fool!”

Gloria continues scolding Galvin. The latter felt uncomfortable being criticized in front of many people. And what’s sad in his beloved grandma, who scolded hi
On the other hand, Gloria’s words made the guests realize something.
Galvin Hudson is married!
Mam of these guests instantly telt ashamed after leaming the truth. They began to worry about themselves.
What it Gloria investigated the entire drama and found out they just watched the young Mrs. Hodson drowning in the pool, and then she would resent them and take note that they were no longer in her good books?
Their hearts felt heavy in their chests, panic that they wanted to leave almost immediately. Not to be blamed, a few of them cowardly fed the mansion.
Mezzatule, Gloria shook her head to see Galvin remain frozen on the floor.
-What are you waiting for? Do you want your wife to freeze and die so that you can marry that gold digger?”
Glopointed her index finger at Fiona. The latter got so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself there.
nd Galvin were
Now that it reveals the truth, people would think that she only assumed to be Mrs. Hudson as many guests had heard her speak to Michelle that she and planning to get married once the latter’s company secured its footing in the business world.
Fiona gnawed her bottom lip, lowering her head to avoid meeting the eyes of the guests congratulating her earlier and singing praises to her in hopes that they could curry her favor when she officially became Mrs. Hudson
Now these quests were scrutinizing her with contempt. She need not have guessed that they were now thinking of her as a thickened race birch after she acted as if she was Mrs. Galvin Hudson already.
Why are you still standing there? Why don’t you bring your wife to the marital bedroom I gave you and Kristel so you can shower her?”
Hearing that, just then, Galvin took a careful look at the woman standing behind his grandmother.
Despite the exquisite waterproof makeup she had on, it didn’t hide how her face became blue from the chill
At the sight of Kristel’s pititul look after bring soaked and quivering from the cold, dalvin rushes to her side, removes his coat, and wraps his wife with it.
“Who had the guts to bully my wife within the Hudson mansion? Are you courting death?”
His query shocked everyone; at the same time, it confirmed that he was indeed married, and the woman was not Fiona Grayson!
Fist, on the other hand, never anticipated that Galvin would react like this. He looks genuinely worried and extremely enraged to see Kristel’s pitiful appearance
Galvin, you lied to me that you have no feelings for that bitch! Fiona clenched her palms at her sides. She glared at Kristel and sneered in her heart. “Kristel, I won’t let you snatch Galvin from me! He has been since the beginning! You are just a replacement!”
Fiona professes within herself that she must hurry to separate Kristel from Galvin!
Ad Galvan interogates the crowd, Michelle nervously steps forward. Even though her mother, Lily Hudson, is the eldest child of Gloria and Raymond, they chensh Galvin so much because be in their first grandson, who will carry the name Hudson and continue the bloodline in the future.
“Galvin. I’m very sorry. It was me who knocked your wife accidentally.” Even though she admitted it was her fault, there was no way she would tell
1 Galvint The -truth. Still, she was infuriated by Kristel Because of her, she was embarrassed when her Grandma sided with the outsider rather than her as her blood–related.
“Mart, why did you do it? Did my wife offend you?” As familiar with his cousin’s temper and attitude, he wants to understand who was at fault and if her Trasindig was mough in humiliate Kristel
However, before Michelle could utter the device explanation she had prepared, Kristel tugged Galvin’s shit and said. “There’s no need to pursue this incident. IE
calvindelt uncomfortable is heat to hear Kristel state this. Although she was trembling, which affected her voice, her tone had an unmistakable tinge of
roldness
Kristel had said this because he was no longer interested in Galvin’s face of defending her from her bully in front of upper–class society.
She believed that now she was admitted as his wile, le was trying to save his face.
Chapter 35
“Our divorce is almost finalized. What’s there to act? Tsk. I just discovered that he and Fiona are actually on the same feather.!
Her heart filled with bitterness, thus, she was no longer excited to be exposed as Mrs. Hudson. In the past, she was too excited that the public would learn the truth But that is only her wishful thinking. Besides, she lost the affection she had for Galvin.
Since she had nothing to do with the Hudsons soon, there’s no need to investigate the matter.
Kristel turned around and walked toward the staircase, where she descended like a goddess clad in an ethereal gown. Now, she will take the same stairs, but her appearance has become a joke.
However, Galvin stretched his arm and took her hand before she could take three steps. Together they headed the staircase under everyone’s gaze.
Whispers ensued, but Kristel wasn’t interested in hearing it all.
Galvin led her to the bedroom Gloria mentioned earlier. She dashes inside after Galvin opens the door.
To her surprise, he picked her up and brought her to the bathroom
“I will ask the maids to make you a hot soup.”
Kristel was left dazed. She was trying to process if everything that happened was real. She was snapped out of her reveries when the water in the bathtub gushed and began to flood the floor.
She let the warm water calm her quivering nerves before she washes up under the shower.
Kristel reached for a bath towel, but she didn’t find one, but a face towel. “How could I wrap my body with it?”
She wondered why this room had no bathrobe or a bath towel when she knew that Gloria personally checked things around the mansion to see if the bedrooms had everything needed…
“What now?” She wondered if Galvin was still in the room. Thus, she calls him out to ask for his help.
To her surprise, Galvin was actually standing in front of the door.
