From Sneers to Cheers: Anthea’s Ascent (Anthea ) novel Chapter 251

Over two decades of waiting, and it all turned out to be a cruel joke.

Seizing her chance, Wendy unleashed a fury of blows upon Elaine right there and then.

When Elaine emerged from the apartment building once more, she was the picture of misery.

She contemplated her options.

“Might as well be dead,” she thought.

But then again, why should she die? To make way for that homewrecker?

No, she couldn't die. She needed to make Hancock pay. She wanted to see him ruined, his reputation in tatters.

As a doctor, he needed not only medical ethics but also morality and character.

Having been Hancock's wife for so many years, Elaine knew plenty of his dirty little secrets.

Nothing earth-shattering.

But certainly enough to ensure he'd never recover.

Upon returning home, Elaine organized the incriminating information she had, ready to hand it over to Hancock's rivals.

That was when Hancock came back.

Looking at Hancock who had shared her bed for over twenty years, Elaine felt a stir of emotion.

She thought to herself, “If Hancock were to kneel before her with tears in his eyes begging for forgiveness, maybe she'd give him another chance.”

But he didn't.

Instead of showing remorse, Hancock slapped her hard across the face, "You wretch. Why go after Wendy? Do you have any idea how much you've frightened Carl? You harlot. If anything happens to Carl, I swear I'll make you pay."

With those words, Hancock turned and left without a backward glance.

He was sick of Elaine.
