Secrets Of The Neglected Wife: When Her True Colors Shine

Chapter 1077
Chapter 1077:
Fabian was genuinely curious. “Ms. Clarke, if you can actually repair this brooch, I’d be truly impressed.”
Allison smiled at him. “I’ll do my best. Please forgive the trouble today.”
Melany, however, felt that Allison’s promise to do her best was just a polite way of brushing things off. She didn’t want Allison to
keep getting away with this.
Melany spoke up, sounding innocent. “Ms. Clarke, if you can’t fix it, will you come up with another good omen?”
She blinked her eyes, as if she was merely making a suggestion. “I think you might want to get an expert to help. That way, at
least Mr. Morgan won’t be disappointed.”

Melany’s voice had a quiet, yet manipulative edge to it. She made it clear that if Allison didn’t succeed in the restoration, any
excuses would simply appear as a way to avoid the work. The “good omen” excuse had already been used, after all.
On top of that, she smiled as she spoke. “I know a few famous jewelry designers. If you need help, Ms. Clarke, I could introduce
you to them.”
Melany was certain that Allison was planning to try the same trick again. But she wasn’t about to let her off the hook. This was
also the perfect opportunity to boost her own image. After speaking, Melany glanced at Fabian. “Mr. Morgan, do you think it’s
necessary?” Once the professionals Melany had recommended arrived, she was confident they would make Allison look bad in
front of everyone. Even if they were turned down, any mistake Allison made would give her a chance to strike.
No matter what happened, Allison was sure to fail.
Fabian, on the other hand, only gave Allison a quick look and said, “Ms. Clarke, I respect your choice. If you ever need expert
help, feel free to ask. I can see this brooch has a complicated design. If it’s not handled right, it could crack even more.”

As someone who valued quality, Fabian didn’t want to see such a precious gift ruined.

Allison shook her head. “I’d rather do it myself. I feel safer that way.” She looked up and smiled. “But don’t worry, Miss Johnson,
if anything goes wrong with the restoration, I won’t make excuses.”
When Allison smiled, it was like she lit up the room. Even the brilliant brooch couldn’t compare to her radiance.
“And I understand why Miss Johnson doesn’t believe I can handle this matter on my own. After all, she’s the type who needs
someone else to do everything for her, and she might think I’m the same. But actually, we’re different.”
Melany was left speechless. Her face darkened. She knew exactly what Allison meant.
Two years ago, on Allison and Colton’s wedding anniversary, Melany had pretended to be drunk and called him, deliberately
causing trouble. Knowing that Allison was nearby, Melany had raised her voice, pretending to cry, and said that she couldn’t live
without Colton. One of the things she had said was, “Colton, I can’t manage on my own. I’m used to leaning on you.”
Those words had ruined their anniversary that night. Melany could still remember how Allison had stayed silent as Colton turned
and walked away, leaving only a brief, “Okay.”
