Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 544

Mr. Clements grabbed his sister by the throat, his eyes flashing with a wild, dangerous anger. In that moment, he didn’t even bother to hide it anymore.

“Wiona! It should have been you! I was after you all along and you still managed to slip away.” His voice shook with rage. “You should be dead, you hear me? Dead!”

Annette couldn’t say a word. She just kept smacking her brother’s arm, desperate for air.

Wiona stared in disbelief. Even now, with everything falling apart, this old man still wanted to stir up trouble. Was he completely out of his mind?

“Mom!” Wiona shouted, trying to rush forward.

Annette waved frantically, trying to signal her, but Mr. Clements just barked at her, “You are supposed to be the best daughter-in-law, huh? If you really care about her, then come here and trade places.”

He started dragging Annette backward, step by step, inching closer to the cliff’s edge. Just one wrong move and they’d both fall.

His intention was crystal clear now—he wanted Wiona dead, and he didn’t care who else went with her.

Annette shook her head, forcing a broken whisper from her throat. “Don’t… come… Joe… You… monster… If it comes to it… I’ll take you… with me… but you’re not… hurting my daughter.”

Somehow, Annette found the strength to push back, her whole body shoving them both closer to the edge.

Joe realized what she was doing, his eyes growing wide with panic. “What are you doing? Have you lost your mind? Stop! Stop right now!”

He tried to let go, tried to push her away, but Annette just held on tighter, forcing him back, her grip unyielding.

Joe’s foot hit a patch of loose gravel. He looked down, his face going pale when he saw how close they were to the edge.

“No!” Wiona screamed. “Mom, don’t! Please!”

She shoved Molly out of the way and lunged forward, desperate to pull Annette back from the brink.

But Annette’s eyes were set, full of a quiet, tired determination. She was exhausted—truly, deeply tired. In that instant, the thought of letting go, of ending everything, almost felt like relief. Maybe if she died, it would finally be over. The feud between the Clements and Sullivan families would be finished. Maybe peace would follow.
