Chapter 220 Third Person's POV The lights in the villa were bright and warm , completely at odds with the storm about to unfold . Melanie looked up when she heard the front door slam open . Denton stood there , his face twisted in fury . " " Denton ? Wh - what's wrong ? " she asked , pretending to stay calm . " Yet he didn't answer . Instead , he stormed over and threw a thick stack of papers straight at her face . " Read it ! " he shouted , eyes bloodshot and locked on her . " Read what you've been doing all these years ! " " Melanie's face drained of color . Her hands trembled as she picked up the papers from the floor . Her eyes scanned the report , the damning records , and the compromising photos , and suddenly her whole body stiffened . " " No … This isn't real … " she mumbled , tears instantly welling up . " You can't believe that witch , Denton ! Sadie made all of this up . She just wants to destroy me , destroy us ! " } She lunged toward him , trying to bury herself in his arms like she always did , relying on her tears and her frailty to soften him . " But Denton didn't budge . " " Melanie , " he said coldly , " do you really think I'm still that same fool you used to wrap around your finger ? " His voice cut like a blade as he stepped closer . " While studying abroad , you sold yourself to old white men just to climb the social ladder . And your ex - husband wasn't some cheating scumbag . You were the one sleeping around . He kicked you out after catching you with multiple men ! And Jewel's heart condition ? It wasn't genetic . You did drugs during pregnancy . You caused it ! As for the baby you claim is mine ? " He laughed bitterly then continued , " You can't even get pregnant ! After that week - long bender with God knows how many men , you had to get a hysterectomy just to save your life . You'll never have children again ! " } " You're lying ! " she screamed , her voice shrill and cracking . " But Denton's eyes were blazing with rage and disgust . " You thought you hid it all so well . You thought your lies would stay buried forever . " } He kept walking toward her , step by step , like a man possessed . " You owe me a life , Melanie ! " he roared . " After Mick died , Sadie got into that car crash because of you ! You tried to have her killed ! " His voice cracked with anguish . " Luckily , she survived , but the baby didn't . That child was mine too . You took both of my children from me ! " } In a flash , he grabbed her by the throat and slammed her against the wall . His hand tightened around her neck , his eyes blazing . " " You evil woman ! You killed my babies ! " Melanie's face turned a sickly purple . She clawed at his arms , struggling , gasping . " I … I didn't ," she choked out , eyes wide with terror . " But the look on Denton's face made it clear that whatever love or pity he once had for her was gone . It was already replaced by hatred , so deep it nearly consumed him . " He wanted her to pay , to suffer for every vile thing she'd done . " You bitch ! You deserve to die ! " he growled . " Just then , as she gasped for breath , Melanie reached into her sleeve and pulled out a syringe . With the last of her strength , she stabbed it into his neck . Denton's eyes went wide . His blood felt like it was boiling , rushing through his veins at lightning speed . Waves of euphoria slammed into his brain like a drug overdose , and his muscles started to convulse uncontrollably.N The room distorted , the chandelier above him refracting rainbow colors in a surreal haze . He then collapsed to the ground , twitching , writhing in pain and confusion . \ Melanie stood over him , her lips curled into a triumphant smirk . " Denton , " she whispered darkly , " You'll never get rid of me . " N
