INTO THE DEPTHS OF LOVE : CHAPTER 81 – 90
Kristin hesitated, looking at Richard for direction. He nodded for her to go, and she slowly made her way to the stage.
“I’m sure you all know her,” Ophelia said, her voice dripping with false affection. “This is the wife of my beloved, adoptive son, Richard Hernandez.”
Richard muttered under his breath, “She’s so manipulative.”
Only he knew the torment Ophelia had put him through over the years. He knew how much she despised him.
“And because I love my son so much,” Ophelia continued, “I can’t allow a shameless woman like this to be his wife!” With a cruel smile, she poured red wine all over Kristin’s pristine white gown.
Kristin gasped in shock. Richard immediately shot to his feet, his eyes filled with rage.
Julio and the guests stood in stunned silence, unable to believe what had just happened.
Ophelia looked at Richard, her lips curling into a satisfied smile. She had wanted to provoke him.
“I’m sure you’re all wondering why I did that,” Ophelia began, her voice loud and clear. “This woman, who claims to be my daughter-in-law, is nothing but a slut! Richard, did you know your wife had a one-night stand with a stranger and got pregnant? Her daughter’s name is Kathryn. Does that ring a bell?”
The revelation hit Richard like a truck. His gaze turned to Kristin, and when she couldn’t meet his eyes, he knew it was true.
“How could she?” murmured voices filled the room.
“She’s a slut!”
“Did Richard know? How could he marry someone like her?”
“No wonder she kept her identity hidden. She’s a prostitute!”
The whispers grew louder, and the crowd began judging Kristin harshly. Taking pictures of Kristin and posting it online.
She stood frozen, her heart breaking as Richard’s disappointed gaze cut through her like a knife.
“You don’t belong here!” a woman sneered, throwing lettuce at Kristin.
The rest of the crowd followed suit, throwing food at her. Ophelia watched with glee, while Julio tried to calm the chaos.
Suddenly, Richard’s voice boomed across the hall. “Stop!”
The fury in his voice was enough to silence the entire hall, even Ophelia.
Richard stormed toward Kristin, grabbing her hand, his face contorted with anger and determination.
“What right do any of you have to treat my wife this way? So what if she had a one-night stand with a stranger? How is that any of your business? I’m her husband, and I’m the only one with a say! I love her despite her flaws” he roared.
Tears streamed down Kristin’s face as she looked at him.
“All of you, get on your knees and apologize to my wife!” Richard commanded, his powerful voice reverberating through the hall. “The last person to kneel will regret it. One… two…”
Before he could count to three, everyone dropped to their knees in fear.
Ophelia, realizing what she has gotten herself into, fainted on the spot.
