The Perfect Wife's Perfect Revenge novel Chapter 744

Hawthorne’s helicopter landed on the lawn of his Greenvale estate. The mansion was a near-exact replica of the one in Starfall City, and as he stepped off the aircraft, he felt a momentary disorientation. He instinctively walked upstairs to the second floor, pushed open the bedroom door, and saw the familiar layout, identical to their room in Starfall City. But the bed was empty. There was no Gwyneth, only a room cleaned to perfection by Butler Parham. A wave of disappointment washed over him as he walked inside.

Butler Parham came upstairs. “Mr. Everhart, weren’t you getting married? Where is Ms. Everhart?”

“She didn’t come with me,” Hawthorne said.

Seeing the grim look on Hawthorne’s face, the butler knew better than to ask any more questions.

Hawthorne pulled out his phone and texted Patti Yale. “Prenatal check-up tomorrow.”

Patti’s heart leaped when she saw his message. Although she was pregnant with James’s child, she knew the baby’s days were numbered once Hawthorne found out. James had sent her to get close to Hawthorne and marry into the Everhart family, but he had no intention of divorcing his own wife to marry her. She needed to find another way out.

Hawthorne had, after all, once loved her and treated her well. She figured if she allied with him now and followed his orders, she could slowly rekindle their relationship. After she helped him take down James and got rid of the baby, surely he would choose her in the end. He wouldn’t be able to resist her, given how she’d risked everything for him, not to mention the halo effect of being his old flame.

She’d had his wife, a woman named Gwyneth, investigated. She was the heiress of the Langford family from Starfall City—an impressive background, but one that came with the baggage of the feud between their families. Even Patti knew about the dark history, a time when she had been the one by Hawthorne’s side, helping him through his most difficult moments.
