Chapter 2149 A Desperate Solution
- Matilda shrieked, her composure shattering. “I never lied to you—every word was the truth! Your father-in-law used to thrash me just like that. I survived it, didn't I? When Darren grew up, his father got old, and the beatings ended. Now we're two gray-haired companions, perfectly fine. Your father-in-law never spent as freely on me as Darren spends on you. Do you even know how much money you've taken from my son over the years? Go ask around—see if any other man treats his wife so generously!”
- “You keep brainwashing me, insisting getting hit is no big deal,” Mona shot back, her eyes icy. “Tell me—do you really believe that, or did your husband pound you so often that your mind warped? Is it only when your son beats his wife harder than your husband beat you that you finally feel... content?”
- Matilda's gaze skittered away, fear tightening her features. “W-What nonsense are you spouting?” she muttered.
