Chapter 7 Nancy Said She Would Not Divorce.

Nancy pursed her lips and said nothing.

“Madelline, tell me.”

Madelline immediately said, “Nicholas, don’t blame Nancy. Blame me, it’s my fault. I tried to stand up but realized I couldn’t stand up at all.”

“Is that so?” Nicholas looked at Nancy.

Nancy remained silent.

Nicholas looked at Madelline again, “Your legs are not healed yet. Why did you want to stand up all of a sudden?”

“I’m sorry, Nicholas, because … “Madelline quickly cried out, “I was too worked up. Nancy said she wouldn’t mention divorce to Grandpa. She wouldn’t divorce you even if she died.”

“Don’t frame me. When did I ever say that?”

It was the first time Nancy lost control and confronted Madelline before Nicholas.

“You said that?” Nicholas looked at her with cold eyes.

“If you don’t believe me, I can ask Grandpa to talk about divorce right now.” Nancy spread her hands with an indifferent attitude.

Nicholas rubbed his eyebrows and sighed.

Then, he spoke softly, “Madelline, I know you’re anxious and want me to divorce immediately, but haven’t we agreed? Grandpa is not in good health now. We will talk about it after his birthday.”

“If you can’t even wait for these few days, I’m sorry. Between you and Grandpa, I have to choose Grandpa.”

When Madelline heard this, she immediately panicked..

She reached out her hand and tugged at the corner of Nicholas’ clothes. She said pitifully, “I’m sorry, Nicholas. I didn’t mean it.”

“That night, I shouldn’t have quarreled with you about it.”

I’m too anxious. I’m afraid something will go wrong if we wait too long. I’m afraid you will be reluctant to divorce. I’m even more afraid you will dump me.”

As she said that, Madelline reached out and hugged Nicholas directly.

Nancy’s eyes widened. Madelline, who was just a mistress, was not ashamed to hug her husband directly in broad daylight.

Just as Nancy was about to speak, a cold voice interrupted suddenly.

“It’s strange. Since when can a mistress hug someone else’s husband and make lame arguments

like this?”

This voice?

As soon as Nancy turned her head, Nicholas said, “Mom, why are you here?”

“Why can’t I come? During my daily inspection of the shopping mall, I saw something immoral and wanted to stop it. I didn’t expect it was my son.

Sarah snorted. Her words were blunt.

“Mom, Madelline can’t be blamed for this. She didn’t do it on purpose and…”

Before Nicholas could finish his words, Sarah interrupted him.

“If it’s not her fault, then it’s yours. A married man cuddling with another woman. I’m so ashamed. Don’t tell people you are my son.”

Sarah had always hated the ‘mistress”.

“Mind your hands. If I ever find out you are hugging another woman other than your wife, I will chase you out of the Sallows. You’re a disgrace to our family.” All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Sarah’s words were ruthless and accurate without a superfluous word.

Every word was precisely on the point.

Nancy was standing on the side, suddenly feeling too weak in front of this mother-in-law.

At this moment, she wanted to shout proudly, “All hail to my mighty mother-in-law!”

However, she was really surprised.

After she and Nicholas got married, they often visited the Sallows. Every time they did that, it was basically to visit Grandpa.

As for her mother-in-law, she could count the number of times they met in person on her finger

In Nancy’s impression, her mother-in-law was a very cold woman. Sarah had always been indifferent to her and didn’t like talking to her very much, so Nancy always thought that she

didn’t like her

She also comforted herself by thinking, for a daughter from a wealthy family like her mother-in- law, her favorite daughter-in-law must also be from a famous family, a gentle and bright daughter-in-law. She would look down on a daughter-in-law from a humble family like her.

Because of this understanding, Nancy never bothered Sarah when Sarah didn’t look for her.

Unexpectedly, her mother-in-law helped her vent her anger frankly.

Sometimes, you have to believe that someone exists to restrain another.

For example, only her mother-in-law could restrain Madelline.

Madelline clenched her palm tightly and tried to explain, “Auntie, you’re right. I overstepped my boundary.”

“I just came back. I heard that Grandpa’s birthday will be held in advance. I want to prepare a gift. for him. Nicholas knows what he likes, so I invite him along. Don’t blame Nicholas.”

“Accompanying another woman on a rest day. Of course, I blame him. And…”

Sarah looked at her with sharp eyes. “I don’t remember inviting you, so don’t prepare a gift. You can’t give it away.”

“Mom, stop it. I invited her.” Nicholas couldn’t hold back.

“Shut up.” Sarah immediately glanced at him.

Then, she said, “It’s Grandpa’s birthday. Since when can you decide on behalf of Grandpa? Do you want to invite her? Then wait until your 80th birthday.”

Madelline’s face was as pale as a piece of paper.

At this time, Sarah put on a gentle smile again. “Besides, the things that Grandpa likes are rare and expensive. Although your family, the Phillips, is quite rich, it’s nothing to speak of in front of the Sallows.”

“Auntic, thank you for your concern. Don’t worry. Although the Phillips’ economic condition is worse than before, we can still afford it.”

“Really?” Sarah said bluntly, “I believe in the Phillips. Although bankrupt, they still have a little bit. of wealth. But currently, the one favored by your family is Mia, your younger sister.”

“You are disabled, and you can’t dance anymore. Your status in the Phillips is not as good as before. I don’t think you have much allowance. Instead of spending it on useless things, it’s better to keep it for yourself.”

“What if you bought a gift, but the Phillips thinks it’s not worth it and doesn’t reimburse you? How will you feed yourself?”

“Do you want Nicholas to pay it for you?”

Sarah’s continuous chatter had completely refreshed Nancy’s understanding.

It let her cheer happily.

Madelline had been trying to endure it, but now she couldn’t bear it anymore.

“Auntie, I respect you, so I always speak respectfully. But your words really hurt me.”

“Even if the Phillips has gone bankrupt, even if I don’t have much allowance, it’s better than the Cohens. Nancy’s natal family does not have much wealth, and she still has to take money from the Sallows. What about her? What does she use to buy gifts?”
