Chapter 7 I Want Great Grandchildren
- Rose’s face crumpled, and she glared at Gloria murderously. It was obvious that Gloria was trying to humiliate her in front of their family. I want to freaking tear her mouth apart!
- Gloria looked straight into her face, and she looked innocent. And then she lowered her head to drink the soup, as if she did not realize that the atmosphere had totally changed. Rose was extremely angry, but she did not dare to cause a scene in front of Maria, and she had to be reprimanded by Maria now.
- Gloria came up with an excuse to leave the dining table after she was full. Rose glared at her, and she was planning to get her revenge. You, this ugly woman! I’ll let you pay in the future!
- Gloria climbed up the stairs, and she looked into someone’s eyes when she looked up. She did not realize that Craig was standing on the stairs. He was crossing his arms and looking down at her as if he were trying to see through her. His expression was saying, See! I know that you’re a sly b*tch! You can get back to someone in just one sentence!
- She was speechless and wanted to roll her eyes, but thinking of her baby, she ignored him and continued to walk. She heard him snorting when she walked past him. She made a face at him without him knowing, and she rushed back to her room. She had been exhausted in the hospital for the past few days, but finally she could sleep well tonight. Just as she was deep in her sleep, she felt that someone surrounded her. She was shivering, and she hid under her blanket. Suddenly, she woke up feeling scared, and she saw someone in front of her.
- She instantly woke up, and she was scared to death. She did not know when Craig came into her room; he was standing right in front of her bed, and he was glaring at her. He looked even scarier dressed in black.
- She suddenly recalled what happened before, and she got alert. She tried to hide deep under the blanket, and she asked, "Craig, what do you want?"
- Before she could finish speaking, he grabbed her collar and pulled her out of the blanket. He leaned in; he was so close that she could feel his breath on her skin.
- "I thought that you were only a greedy woman. But that’s not the case. Tell me! Who made you get close to me?"
- Someone took photos of him and Jenny in the hospital yesterday and leaked them online. They were "hugging" in those photos as if they were a passionate couple. And the angle of the photographer was the same as where Gloria stood. And judging from what she did on the dining table the day before, he was sure that she was behind the photos! He hated being tricked, and he would definitely make her pay!
- Gloria widened her eyes, as she did not understand his words at all. "Are you crazy? You came into my room and scared me just for this? Alright, beg me now, and I shall tell you the culprit!" She was enraged. What did I do wrong? Why was he always pushing me?
- Craig laughed sarcastically, and he snorted, "I shall let you see how I beg someone!" He dragged her from the bed to the bathroom. And she suddenly felt his anger, and she recalled how he behaved when he was with his assistant in the study the other day. Did I know that I was the woman?
- Before she could think properly, he poured water on her head. He turned on the showerhead and kept splashing her. It was December now, and the water was icy cold. She tried to fight back, but he pinned her down. After what seemed like a century, her whole body was soaked, and she was shivering from the cold.
- At this moment, she thought that maybe she was better off dead. She was always bullied and tormented in the Chavez family, and she still had the same fate in the Ramirez family. Where did I go wrong? Why didn’t he give me the chance to explain myself? No… I don't want to die such a sad death!
- She grabbed his wrist, and she bit hard on his hand. He was in pain, yet he frowned without letting go. Ha, it seems like I really need to show her what I’m made of! He was about to call for someone when he heard footsteps approaching him.
- "Mr. Ramirez, are you here?" Eddy walked into the room, looking for him. He showed the photos online to Craig just now, so he went straight to Gloria’s room to punish her.
- "What is it?" Craig was speaking from the bathroom. Eddy looked at the half-closed door, and he could hear water running inside. Is Mr. Ramirez showering now? What about Gloria? Is she inside too?
- Thinking of such a possibility, Eddy said helplessly, "I’ve looked into the IP address online, and it seems that Jenny’s best friend leaked them from her office. This should be Jenny’s trick to force you to marry her; it’s not related to Ms. Chavez at all. And I’ve deleted all the photos online; there wasn’t any bad influence from this incident."
- Suddenly, the water stopped running.
- "Mr. Ramirez?"
- "Mr. Ramirez?"
- "F*ck off!" He said it hoarsely, and he sounded guilty.
- Why don’t you tell him this after I'm buried? Gloria was scolding him in her heart.
- Eddy was blurred, but he went out. At the same time, Maria and Amy came after hearing the commotion. Seeing Eddy come out of the room, Maria asked sternly, "What was happening? Did Craig bully Gloria again?"
- Eddy blocked the door and said embarrassedly, "Madame Ramirez, you can’t enter now!"
- She was furious, and she snorted, "What kind of nonsense is this? This is my house! I’m not letting that bastard bully Gloria!"
- Eddy knew he could not stop her, so he said honestly, "Madame Ramirez, Mr. Ramirez was taking a shower with Ms. Chavez... I meant Mrs. Ramirez. Does it count as him bullying her?"
- Marian and Amy were stunned, and both of them blushed. Amy suddenly clapped and said, "Congratulations, Madame Ramirez! You can soon get your great-grandchild!" Maria was shocked at the turn of events, as they were still fighting yesterday. This is such great news! The oracle was indeed correct! Both of them are made for each other! They must be attracted to each other by fate.
- Maria chuckled, and she asked everyone to go off. "Hurry up and go to sleep; let everyone know that no one should disturb the two of them! I’m expecting my great-grandchild soon!"
