The substitute bride is a mute

Chapter 18

"Mdm. Hebert, don't blame Judy since that's all in the past. She was young and naive back then. That's why she was confused…"

Jenna pretended to plead for Judy, but she was actually adding fuel to the fire. Sure enough, Sally's anger erupted instantly.

She grabbed Jenna's hand and interrupted her, "Jenna, why are you still speaking up for her? She schemed to ruin your marriage, yet she's shameless enough to act like this. Such a scheming woman would only tarnish the reputation of the Reid family!" NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

The more Sally spoke, the more agitated she became.

Pointing at Judy, she continued, "You, get out of here now! You—"

She wanted to say more, but Clark stopped her with a gesture.

Lowering his gaze, he firmly grasped Judy's wrist and ordered, "You, come with me."

He did not even give Judy a chance to react.

Clark's grip was strong as he crushed her wrist in his hand, making her feel like it was going to snap. He pulled her all the way to the room before forcefully closing the door and throwing her onto the bed.

Judy fell awkwardly, feeling a sudden weightlessness that made her dizzy. She tried to get up from the bed, but Clark pinned her down firmly.

What did he want to do?

Panic flashed in her eyes. She instinctively tried to shrink back, but under his restraint, she had nowhere to escape.

The man was emanating an aura of danger, making her very uneasy.

"Why are you trying to hide? Feeling guilty?" he sneered coldly, his sarcasm becoming more intense.

After Judy noticed his expression and heard his words, she widened her eyes in response.

A prelude to his fury, Clark stared at her and said from above with an icy voice, "You're indeed a well-trained and obedient dog raised by Matthew Blake."
