My Wife’s Cruel Secret and My Sister’s Death Chapter 06 The Empty Freezer

Back at the house, the veins stood out on Claire’s forehead.

Empty medicine bottles covered the floor.

“Lucas!”

Her voice echoed through the empty house.

When he did not appear, she grew more irritated.

“Martha Wilson!”

The housekeeper hurried in.

“Ms. Bennett! Are you all right?”

Mrs. Wilson helped her back into the wheelchair.

Claire took several breaths before asking, “Where is my husband?”

“You mean Mr. Carter? I haven’t seen him since you and Mr. Hayes left yesterday.”

“Fine. You can go.”

Meanwhile, outside the freezer area, Lucas sat drinking with a group of his friends in a private room at the club.

One of them looked uneasy.

“Lucas, he’s been in there a long time. You don’t think something happened to him, do you?”

Lucas swirled the wine in his glass and laughed.

“Rhys is hard to kill. If I don’t teach him a lesson, how is he ever going to learn when to give up?”

Another man immediately started flattering him.

“You’re always ten steps ahead, Lucas. After this, that loser won’t dare compete with you again.”

“Compete with me? He should look in a mirror and ask whether he’s even qualified.”

He had just raised his glass when Claire appeared with a group of security guards.

His hand jerked.

Wine spilled all over him.

“Claire? What are you doing here?”

Claire stared at the man who had just spoken.

Her eyes turned cold.

as what he said true?”

Lucas’s face changed.

“Claire, please. Let me explain.”

“Where is Rhys?”

The other man answered before Lucas could stop him.

“Inside. He’s in the freezer.”

He spoke fast, terrified of making Claire angry.

He rushed over and opened the door.

The second he looked inside, his eyes widened.

“H… he’s… he’s gone.”

Claire looked into the freezer.

Blood covered the floor.

Dead snakes lay everywhere.

I was nowhere to be seen.

Then she noticed the necklace I always wore lying on the floor.

Her expression turned frighteningly cold.

“Where did he go? Find him!”

A staff member soon ran over.

There was a hidden exit behind the storage area.

Someone had escaped through it.

Claire turned on Lucas.

“I’m already divorced from him. What are you so afraid of? Why do you keep hurting him again and again?”

Lucas instantly put on that wounded expression.

“Claire, I just couldn’t accept losing you.

“You’re all I have. I don’t have anyone else.

“Please forgive me this one time. Please?”

Claire rubbed her forehead.

the end, she said nothing more.
