The unwanted wife’s unexpected comeback
Chapter 588

Chapter 588:

When she spoke, her voice was steady and cold.

“I only repeated your own words, Miss Moss.

Are you really going to threaten me for that? It seems that when power and wealth are involved, human decency becomes an afterthought.”

Yolanda’s chest heaved, her rage barely contained.

The intensity of her glare could have cut through steel.

“Enough with the theatrics!” Yolanda finally blurted, realizing too late that Alicia had set the perfect trap, using her impulsive nature to sway public opinion.

Alicia knew Yolanda’s quick temper well and knew that she often spoke without thinking, especially in front of cameras.

Alicia met her gaze, unyielding.

“So, tell us, Miss Moss — do your words mean anything, or are they just empty threats? Will you stand by them, or hide behind excuses?”

The cameras pressed in like a relentless tide.

Yolanda’s face flushed crimson, a blend of fury and humiliation.

Dorian, who had been watching from the sidelines, could no longer remain passive.

He stepped forward, commanding attention with his presence.

Yolanda spotted him instantly, and the fire in her eyes dimmed.

She bit her lip, tears threatening to spill as she whispered, “Daddy…”

At that moment, she seemed small and vulnerable, as if she were the one under attack.

Dorian moved her gently behind him and turned to face Alicia.

His calm, authoritative voice cut through the noise.

“Ms.

Bennett, my daughter has been unwell and is taking medication that affects her emotions.

She misspoke today, and I apologize on her behalf.”

He offered the apology with practiced grace, subtly shifting the pressure back onto Alicia.

Alicia’s expression remained neutral, her voice unwavering.

“Mr.

Moss, as far as I know, only those declared mentally unfit can avoid accountability.

Do you have proof of your daughter’s condition?”

Dorian’s jaw clenched, though his voice stayed measured.

“No, she is perfectly fine, which is why I’m here to apologize.”

“Then your apology isn’t necessary,” Alicia responded, her tone firm.

“The one responsible should face the consequences themselves.”

From the crowd, Benedict muttered, “Why is she pushing so hard? Even a public apology from someone as influential as Dorian isn’t enough?”

Caden’s response was clipped and cold.

“Age or status doesn’t excuse wrongdoing.

If it did, why would we have laws?”

Benedict shot Caden a pointed look.

“Why are you so riled up over a woman? Is it really worth it?”
