My Destiny Is To Become Billionaire’s Wife

Realizing the importance of the current issue, Mrs. Hani broke the silence and spoke up.

“Come inside quickly, Ansel. Only you can solve this problem,” Mrs. Hani urged anxiously.

Ansel sensed the seriousness in Mrs. Hani’s voice and understood that there was a complex and challenging issue that needed to be resolved immediately. Ansel composed himself and asked, “Is it something really serious, Mom? Why do you seem so worried?”

“Go inside the house, and you’ll find out.” Instead of answering the question, Mrs. Hani demanded that Ansel follow her. “Hurry up; it’s very urgent.”

Mrs. Hani walked ahead, guiding Ansel along, while Ansel wasted no time and held Erica’s hand tightly, leading her inside with him. Stepping into the living room, Mrs. Emily, Desi’s mother, greeted them immediately with her sharp and accusatory voice.

“I don’t want to hear any more excuses. Ansel must take responsibility for Desi! It’s something that must be done.”

Ignoring the harsh and shouting woman’s words, Mr. Brown showed no specific reaction to the situation. Essentially, Ansel’s father’s face remained calm and composed, as one would typically see. Perhaps Mr. Brown didn’t want to engage in an argument with the woman. It’s also possible that he was buying time, waiting for Ansel to come and resolve the issue.

While the woman continued to shout and create difficulties, putting pressure on Mr. Brown, Ethan, the father of Desi, remained seated in silence, seemingly lost in thought. Desi appeared restless, secretly praying that her deceitful actions would not be uncovered and that nobody would discover her lies. After returning, Mrs. Hani quietly took a seat beside her husband. Due to the heavy atmosphere prevailing, she did not inform everyone about Ansel’s presence. Perhaps it was due to the inappropriate situation or Mrs. Hani’s intention to adhere to the script and create a surprise for everyone.

Ansel and Erica stood near the sofa. After observing everything unfolding for a while and sensing the escalating tension between the two families, the hostile and hateful glances directed towards the Browns from Scott’s side were clearly visible. Filled with curiosity, Ansel finally voiced his thoughts:

“What’s happening here? What are the Scotts doing at the Browns’ house? And on top of that, they’re being disrespectful, causing a ruckus here.”

Upon hearing Ansel’s voice, everyone present in the living room immediately turned their gaze towards him. Desi’s parents directed looks of hatred towards Ansel, while Desi herself bowed her head, avoiding eye contact with him. As for Mr. Brown, his eyes seemed to convey a message, as if saying, “Ansel, be prepared for the impending shocking news and remain calm to handle this unforeseen trouble.”

No one answered, Ansel. Just as he was about to ask another question, Desi’s mother abruptly stood up from her seat and approached Ansel with a hostile demeanor and a gaze as sharp as claws.

“Ansel Brown!” the woman shouted, her voice echoing like the roar of a lioness. “Finally, you dare to show yourself. I thought you were a coward, hiding like a turtle in its shell and enjoying running away from reality. Could it be that you have returned here because you have felt fear and regret?”

“What do you mean?”

“I said it like that, and you don’t understand? Are you truly foolish or just pretending to be innocent and blameless?” The woman’s voice was saturated with sarcasm.

“Speak in a manner that is worthy of your status and position.” Ansel remained calm and conducted himself with great elegance, even though he was being offended. Of course, he couldn’t resist adding a touch of sarcasm and mockery to his voice: “You’re behaving no differently than an ignorant person.”

“Do you dare to brazenly lecture me on proper conduct? How mocking!” Mrs. Emily exclaimed angrily, her growl even more ferocious: “Don’t pretend to be virtuous in front of me. You will have to pay the price for your evil deeds.”

“I genuinely don’t understand your meaning, please…”

Ansel gently requested, but before he could finish speaking, the woman interrupted him, her lips refusing to remain silent. She continuously cursed and berated Ansel.

“Ansel Brown. You are a despicable man! How dare you hurt my daughter? You have destroyed everything about Desi! I will ensure that you will not find any joy in your life if you fail to recognize your mistake and take responsibility for it!”

The angry voice of the woman filled the space, causing Ansel to feel his heart constrict. He tried to restrain himself but couldn’t stay still. In a tense tone, Ansel replied:

“What on earth are you talking about? Who harmed your daughter?”

“You dare deny it further? How shameless and lacking in remorse!” Mrs. Emily continued to pour out her spiteful and cruel words. She didn’t care where she was or who she was facing.

“I warn you, stop this arrogant attitude and lack of manners. Cut the nonsense and irrational speech,” Ansel angrily replied. But despite Ansel’s objections and discomfort, Emily continued to insult him without any remorse.

“You’re a mad dog! Despicable creature! You don’t deserve to be called a man! Everything you do sows pain and destruction! I curse you to live in eternal loneliness and regret! Your soul will wither in agony and misery!”

Mrs. Emily’s words were filled with venom and hatred as she continued to unleash her anger towards Ansel.

The excessively harsh words from Desi’s mother made the listeners uncomfortable and disagree with her. As for Ansel, he felt anger-a boiling rage simmering inside him. However, in front of his own parents, Ansel didn’t want to appear rude and ignorant. Instead, he showed resilience in the face of Mrs. Emily’s sharp criticism, refusing to be dragged into an unworthy argument. Therefore, he simply offered gentle reminders to Desi’s mother without stooping to her level.

“That’s enough! Don’t speak rudely here. You are making me feel that I shouldn’t respect you. I kindly ask you to leave my house immediately.”

“How dare you try to evict me? You think you can…” The woman glared at Ansel, intending to say something more unpleasant to oppose and criticize Ansel’s decision, when someone intervened.

“Stop it right now.” A strong voice emerged, and finally, the woman’s husband intervened: “Both of you, sit down and talk. We need to calmly discuss and find a solution together.”

The man spoke, briefly noticing the reactions of Ansel and the girl standing beside him. Ansel exhibited calmness, while Erica appeared concerned for him. Erica knew that Ansel was furious and had to make an effort to restrain himself from acting violently towards the other party. Erica recalled the moment at the AB company cafeteria and felt a shiver run down her spine. Ansel had been ferocious, like a monster, back then. Erica was afraid that he might lose control again. That’s why she firmly held Ansel’s hand, even with many people present. Erica believed that, at least in her presence, Ansel would be able to maintain his self-control.

“How can I be silent when my daughter is being bullied? Having to endure injustice and disadvantage?” The woman expressed her frustration: “Today, no matter what it takes, I am determined to confront this despicable person. No one can stop me.”

“Being hot-tempered and impulsive won’t solve any problems.” The authoritative man spoke wisely: “By causing chaos like that, you only make others look down on your reputation, and the situation cannot be resolved peacefully.”

“I don’t care about reputation. Don’t you care about Desi?” Mrs. Emily was about to reproach her husband when Desi gently intervened.

“Mom, please stop talking.” Desi reassured her mother, “Can we handle this calmly? Let Ansel speak. He has the right to voice his opinion.”

“That’s right. Emily, I hope you can calm down. Mrs. Hani chimed in to contribute to the lively discussion, saying, “Let’s talk in a serious and sober manner. I believe both sides will find an effective solution to resolve the issue.”

Seeing everyone advising her to restrain herself, Mrs. Emily reluctantly showed a bit of understanding and obediently returned to her seat.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
