Ready to Rule: The Real Heiress Strikes Back novel Chapter 326

They’d been together for three years before getting married, and now another three years had passed. Jason had never even raised his voice at her, let alone a hand. At home, his whole family treated her like royalty. But what did he get for all of that?

This.

Jason’s mother was so furious she could barely catch her breath. Her finger shook as she pointed at Ms. Santoro. “We have always treated you well, and this is how you repay us? If I’d known you were like this, I never would have let you marry into our family.”

Jason’s family wasn’t rich, but Jason’s parents were both educated and respected. Ms. Santoro had a degree from a good university, but her own family background was nothing special. From the start, their relatives hadn’t really approved of her. To help her settle in and avoid being looked down on, they’d even arranged a stable job for her at Silverpine High.

And now, she’d thrown it all back in their faces, dragging the family’s name through the mud for everyone to see.

“I did all of this for you! For a better life!” Ms. Santoro screamed.

Jason stared at her, hardly able to believe she was still making excuses.

“Forget it. Let’s just get divorced.”

Ms. Santoro froze, shocked. She knew how much Jason loved her. How could he even say that?

“Jason, I have my reasons. Everything I did was for our family. Why can’t you just try to understand?” She collapsed in tears, begging him.

Jason almost laughed. “You hooked up with another man, broke our marriage, and now you want me to understand you? You make me sick.”

Ms. Santoro couldn’t even speak through her sobs. “Jason, please, just trust me. Just this once.”

“Get away from me. Don’t touch me. From now on, we’re nothing to each other.”

After the Punto family stormed out, Mr. Colton’s wife showed up at the police station, causing even more chaos. She scratched Ms. Santoro’s face, screaming and cursing until someone finally pulled her away.
