Chapter 198 Impulsive Vow To An Enigmatic Husband
- That woman played the victim first, “Abby and her mom think we eat too much; they’re trying to kick us out with a broom. She told us we’re not allowed to step foot in your house ever again.” Abigail didn’t care about her image anymore; she pointed at her and shouted, “Bu lls hit! Your son was the one who spilled my skincare products first, and you dare to slander my best friend!” The woman spat on the ground, “Pfft! Out of all the people, why did you have to be friends with Cornelia? She’s a shameless woman and everyone around here knows the dirty deeds she’s done. If she can do all that, why can’t people talk about it?” Abigail, “Shut up!” Abigail’s dad shouted, “Abigail, you shut up!” Abigail looked at her dad, her eyes welling up with tears of injustice, “Dad, aren’t they sucking you dry enough? Now you’re just going to blindly side with them?” Her dad glanced at her, then at his tear-streaked wife, hesitating for a moment, “Abby, they’re your uncle’s family.” Abigail interrupted, “Is my uncle dead? You’re not him; why do you have to support his wife and son? Is there such a thing in this world?
- They’re not disabled; can’t they earn their own living?” Abigail’s dad knew this wasn’t right, but he’s been bearing it all these years; he couldn’t just abandon his brother’s wife and son, “Abby… Seeing that Abigail’s dad might soften, the woman fell to the ground, crying and shouting, “Brother, look at what your daughter has leamed from Cornelia over the years. She even cursed her uncle to die and cursed us to be disabled.” Abigail, “You harpy!” Since Cornelia wasn’t there and most of the people here had a bad impression of her, the woman threw all the mud she could think of at Comelia, “Brother, not to gossip. Abby wasn’t like this before; it’s because she’s been with Cornelia for so long; she’s learned all that little b itch’s bad habits, and now she can’t even tell the difference between good and bad.” Abigail was so angry that she sn atched the broom from her mom’s hand and tried to hit the woman, who kept dodging and saying, “Brother, see? Abby now dares to hit me. If she continues to hang out with Cornelia, our family will be ruined by that little bi tch. Abigail’s dad wanted to say something, but Abby’s tearful mom spoke, “I’ve been tolerating them for a very long time. I could swallow it! but now they’re bullying my daughter. Today, you must give me a clear answer! If you want to keep them, we’re leaving. This house can either have us or them, not both.” Abigail’s dad frowned, “Why are you causing trouble now? The soup in the kitchen is almost ready, go serve it. Leave this matter to me.” Hearing this, Abby’s mom, who had been enduring for many years, was extremely disappointed. She suddenly laughed, “Haven’t I endured enough over these years? I’m causing trouble? Who’s really causing trouble in this house? If it weren’t for these leeches, would we only be able to afford a $100,000 house in Riverton for our daughter?”
- Their jobs were not bad; the salary was good in Rosenberg. Excluding their expenses and occasional aid to their daughter, they still had a lot of surplus, but all these surpluses were taken away by them. “Dad, Mom, are you still giving them money?” Abigail was hearing this for the first time and she just couldn’t put up with their overly sympathetic behavior. She knew her father was a soft touch, always ready to help anyone no matter how difficult the situation, even willing to dig into his own pockets, which had cost him dearly over the years. If he kept this up, they’d be bled dry. Today, she had to make her move. “Dad, can you please kick them out? If you don’t, I’m calling the cops. This is our home. Why should Mom and I have to leave?” “Call the cops? Ridiculous! You’re trying to pull a Cornelia?” The woman sneered, always bringing up Cornelia, “Go ahead, call the cops. Worst-case scenario, we’ll spend a few days in jail where the food’s free. We’ll save some money.” Abigail’s dad grabbed her, “Abigail, cut it out. We’re family. Don’t stir up trouble. You only come back once a year. Let’s just enjoy our time together.”
