Edmund Wilson's words felt like a heavy hammer, banging hard on Melody Sheffield's head, leaving her mind blank.
So, all these years, in her husband's eyes, she was just a good-for-nothing who only knew how to spend money and stir up trouble?
So, he had a reason to find a mistress outside? And even have an illegitimate child with her?
"Edmund Wilson! You bastard! Back when you proposed, it was you who said you could tolerate all my bad temper, it was you who said I could live the life I wanted, it was you who said you would treat me well for a lifetime, it was you!" Melody Sheffield screamed hysterically, "You disdain my lifestyle, why didn't you tell me? You can't tolerate my temper anymore, why didn't you say anything? Instead, you cheated with that woman, Ruby Murphy, and even had a son with her!"
"Is my incompetence your reason for cheating? Edmund Wilson, you're a real piece of work, I hate you!"
Melody Sheffield ran out crying.
