A Widow's Poison, A Wife's Rebellion novel Chapter 1210

She had ordered them to look into the situation in Maxlandia because Yardley's sudden pivot was too massive to ignore.

She needed to know the reason.

"It's because... your mother's death was orchestrated by the Clark family!"

"What?" Starla whispered.

Herbert froze.

The Clark family?

"What do you mean?" she asked, her voice trembling in confusion.

Wasn't her mother murdered by the Yelchins? How did the Clarks suddenly get dragged into this?

The person on the line quickly detailed everything they had uncovered.

As she listened, all the color violently drained from her face.

The Clark family!

The Clark family killed her mother? Then... the Yelchins...!!

The Yelchins had just been a convenient smokescreen hiding the real truth.

Starla didn't even remember hanging up the phone. Her mind completely flatlined.

She never imagined it would turn out like this.

The Clark family!

It was them all along...

No wonder Yardley hadn't bothered fighting Fairfax and immediately directed all his firepower at them.

A long, agonizing silence stretched between them...

When she finally spoke, it sounded like she was searching for her own voice. "How did it come to this?"

Herbert had no answer.

Hearing the news over the phone had left him equally shell-shocked.

Everything Starla had done in Marina City—the absolute hell she had unleashed on the Yelchins—was driven entirely by her mother's death.

But now, she was discovering that the Clarks were the real murderers. Then... what did all her revenge against the Yelchins amount to?

Starla’s entire world violently collapsed in on itself.

...

Back at Sylvan Vale, Amos also received the finalized intel.

It was true!

He and Yvonne sat in stunned silence.
