Chapter 253 The Wife Behaves Strangely Around Us

• “Why don’t you take it as a break from having to serve dad?” Karen asked. Damien did not want to argue with a woman. He was deep in thought, with his face darkening. Miley, on the other hand, did not hear the undertone of what Karen said. Clueless about what happened, she looked at Karen and then at her husband, hoping to persuade him. “Exactly, Damien. Dad is still sick, and it could be contagious. Having a change of seat isn’t a bad idea after all.” Damien’s face sank even further upon hearing what Miley said. He took a deep breath, then turned to look at Miley, who knew nothing about what happened in the family and only wanted her daughter to become a star all day long.
• She simply sounded incomprehensible to him when she said such stupid things. ‘What do you mean by changing sitting position is not a bad thing? Don’t you know what that seat means? I fear that after this meal, my status within the family will diminish to inconsequentiality. I used to be the person that Dad trusted the most. I always sat on his right-hand side, where it was more convenient to talk to Dad, report things to him, and get opinions from him. However, it appears that my standing in his heart has diminished. Even a junior has the right to take my place. I can’t stand this anymore!’
• Thinking of this, Damien shot a frosty glance at Miley, his sanity preventing him from retaliating, but the icy look in his eyes was unmistakable. When he first married this woman from the Rogers family, he thought it would help him in his career. But now, it seemed that she was not of much help. Miley was frightened by his glance, but she did not understand why. What exactly is Damien mad at me for? I said this out of concern, just wanting him to take a good rest.’
