Ever since that day at the stables, Raffy had rallied every kid in preschool to freeze her out, all to avenge Millie’s bruised pride.
“I just wanted to get my homework back. He started it,” Niki murmured, her voice small but steady. “So I fought back.”
She laid out the whole story, every detail crisp and clear.
Danielle’s heart tightened. She cupped her daughter’s face, her voice gentle but firm. “Niki, you did the right thing.”
She asked quietly, “So, is Raffy the reason you haven’t wanted to go to preschool these days?”
Niki had tried to keep it hidden, but Danielle had noticed the change—she just hadn’t known why.
Niki’s fingers curled. “Because… because he told everyone not to play with me. Whether it’s homework or gym, I’m always left on my own.” She hesitated, her voice trembling a little. “At lunch, they all cut in front of me on purpose. They don’t want me to eat.”
Danielle felt something twist painfully inside her.
“Why didn’t you tell me sooner?” she asked softly.
Niki pressed her lips together. “There’s only one year left before I move on. I didn’t want to cause you any trouble…”
Danielle blinked back tears. “You’re never trouble to me. Never.”
Today, she would make sure her daughter got the justice she deserved.

In the school office, Millie and Alexander had shown up as Raffy’s parents. Millie’s face turned icy the moment she saw her son looking so pitiful. “Alex, I won’t let anyone get away with hurting Raffy!” she snapped.
The teacher, seeing Alexander walk in, grew extra polite and deferential. After all, this was Mr. Davidson.
Raffy sniffled and threw himself into Millie’s arms. “They were all mean to me,” he whimpered. “Niki was unfair. She even hit me.”
Alexander looked down at Raffy and gently pulled him away from Millie to check him over for injuries. His presence was cold and intimidating, filling the room with tension.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell
I'm already in chapter 432 ATM and I have the impression that the story is so slow. Daniele remains in the dark, her reputation is low and inexistent, her accomplishment and professional abilities are stiĺl hidden, her enemies are taking the joy in humiliatihg her. No evolution in the plot? Please don't stay long in this,readers might lose interest in the long run....
Please update...
The last chapter was too short. More pls. Thank you....
Lovin' this. More more pls!...
