96. DIVORCE CELINE’s P O V “Are you aware of the nonsense you’re currently babbling about?” Mrs. Anderson displayed an extreme amount of shock. She gave the impression of being someone who did not believe what her son had stated. “That’s enough!” Sebastian’s father rushed over and put his hand out to his wife in an attempt to reassure her. “Even if you’re against their marriage, they’ve already gotten their marriage certificate. And you’re asking them to get a divorce right away? Won’t we become a laughing stock to the public if you’re going to insist this to happen?” After that, he looked up at me, and I didn’t particularly like the trace of dissatisfaction that I could detect in his eyes. “You should respect your mother no matter what. Even so, she is older than you are…” I bit my lip and looked down, nodding my head. “What do you mean by laughing stock to the public?” Mrs. Anderson turned to look at her husband who was standing behind the couch. Was today’s incident not big enough of a joke for you? And also, what do you mean her mother? I’m not her mother and never will be!” Despite the complexity of the circumstances, the elderly man maintained his cheerful demeanor by maintaining a smile on his face. “Celine is legally our daughter-in-law. It is perfectly acceptable for her to refer to you as her mother…” “Who in their right mind would want a daughter-in-law like her anyway?” she rasped angrily. “William, why do you have such a favorable impression of her? Can’t you see how pitiful Brylee is right now? She treated her sister so nicely, but look at what this woman did to her? She stole your son away from Brylee! Do you still want to have 1/4 +25 BONUS that kind of person as your daughter-in-law?” Hearing this, Brylee immediately showed her face full of grievance. She was crying, and no matter
how I looked at it, the tears that were streaming down her face gave the impression that she had been victimized in some way. When William looked at Brylee, his eyes showed that he was indeed feeling a little bit of sadness. “I feel sorry for you too, Brylee… But now that things have reached this point, there is nothing I can do to change it, regardless of how sorry I feel. We have no choice but to accept it, no matter how much it hurts…” “What do you mean you can’t change anything?” Mrs. Anderson rose from her seat and pointed angrily at her husband. “Tell your son to file a divorce right away!” “You are well aware that the issue at hand has grown to be too significant. If they were to get a divorce, it would certainly make the situation even worse, and the stock price of the Anderson family business would plummet to an all-time low!” the old man d causing his wife to stop moving for a second while her eyes g wide in shock. “Then you’ll just let him marry this sl ut?” she muttered, expressing h displeasure. “Where would our family find the serenity to live now? WWilliam was quick to make her feel better by saying. “All right… don’t. @get so worked up. It’s not like you’re not familiar with the fact that y your son comes up with new ideas on a daily basis. You are well aware of how easily he can change his mind. Let’s have another conversation about it after everything has settled down…” “But…” “COlivia!” all of a sudden, a man identified as Jack appeared. “What my bbrother-in-law had said makes perfect sense. What took place today +25 BONUS was far too significant, and the Lauren family as a whole will be affected…” Oh… so Jack was Olivia’s older brother all along. It makes sense to me now because they have the same attitude. “Both the company and the stock price will also be affected…” he continued. “Now that Sebastian has announced his marriage, let’s just wait and see what will happen now. Even if you want them to file a divorce, we still need to wait until the whole incident cools down Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
before we can move forward…” “But Jack…” “Don’t let your emotions affect your judgment!” he pointed out to his sister, who appeared to know her very well. “Calm down, Olivia… Everything will be alright.” After a moment of silence during which Mrs. Anderson appeared to be considering something, she suddenly snapped her head in my direction while maintaining the icy stare she had been giving me. “I hope you’re enjoying your first few days as Mrs. Sebastian. Anderson. But keep in mind that my daughter-in-law will only be Brylee and no one else!” She turned around and immediately assisted Brylee with standing up from the couch. “Let’s go, sweetheart…” She spoke in a soft voice. “Mom is going to put you to bed so you can rest. Mr. Lee, please prepare a room for Brylee. From now on, she will be staying here at my house!” What? “Yes, Madam!” With his head bowed down, the elderly man hurriedly ascended the stairs to carry out the instructions given to him. I knew it! This old woman was planning something. 3/4 +25 BONUS “Celine… I need to have a talk with you!” Julio yelled out as soon as his favorite daughter left before he approached a room that was (completely empty. Lasked Sebastian for permission through my eyes and he nodded in understanding, squeezing my hand as if to reassure me that it was going to be fine before he released it. “Have the two of you actually obtained your marriage certificate?” My father questioned as soon as I walked into the room. Il stood in front of him with my arms crossed over my chest and my chin held high as I spoke, and I said, “I believe that everyone in New York should know this by now…” He proceeded to speak with displeasure while looking at me with an expression of bewilderment on
his face and clenching his teeth.” Sebastian’s your sister’s fiancé! How could you do this to her? Don’t you have a sense of decency and shame? Was this what your mother had taught you?
