A Whirlwind Marriage with the Beautiful CEO novel Chapter 164

Chapter 164 

“Hermann vehemently refused to sell his house back when Uncle Emerson 

owed a hefty sum of money. He even pressured my mom to sell our house 

and squeezed a substantial amount of cash out of her and Roselynn!” 

Emmanuel’s voice trembled with emotion as he shared his past with 

Mackenzie. 

She, too, held a deep–seated disdain for such despicable individuals and 

vowed to help Emmanuel turn the tide. 

As they strolled past Hermann’s residence during dinner time, they were 

taken aback to hear the sound of clinking glasses. 

Jamison gleefully exclaimed to Hermann, “Grandpa, Emmanuel and Roselynn 

are toast this time! Haha! Who would’ve thought our little tricks would have 

such a profound impact!” 

In a soft voice, Olivia spoke up. “Jamison, we’re still family at the end of the 

day. Isn’t this crossing the line?” 

Hermann sheered in response, “Crossing the line? No way! Not when we’re 

dealing with such an ungrateful bunch! You ladies are too soft! Now, get out 

of our sight! Don’t you dare interrupt us!” 

Jamison chimed in, “Exactly! Grandma, have you forgotten how they brought 

people over and took more than forty thousand from us? My dad is their 

uncle, and they didn’t even bother to fork out eighty thousand to bail him out 

when he was imprisoned abroad! They deserve every bit of this!” 

“Jamison, that’s not right of you to say. That forty thousand belonged to Aunt 

Alessandra. It was her rightful dividend. We’ve only returned a quarter of the 

money to their family. How can you accuse them of robbing us? Emmanuel 

and Roselynn are facing cyberbullying because of the things you wrote 

about them online. It’s been a trending topic ever since,” Henrietta voiced her 

concern. 

“Shut your mouth!” Hermann bellowed, delivering a harsh slap to Henrietta. 

Slap! The sound reverberated through the house, audible even to Emmanuel 

and Mackenzie who were standing outside. 

To their dismay, Hermann continued his rampage by dragging Henrietta 

away from the dinner table and subjecting her to a series of brutal kicks, all 

because she had dared to defend Alessandra’s family. 

Emmanuel had always known Hermann had a patriarchal mindset, but the 

extent of his maternal grandfather’s cruelty caught Emmanuel off guard. 

Mackenzie felt an overwhelming urge to burst into the house and give 

Hermann a taste of his own medicine. 

“Hmph! Women are nothing but trash, always taking the side of outsiders!” 

Hermann shouted, his voice filled with contempt. “You can skip dinner 

tonight! Get out of my sight! Shouldn’t older sisters live to support their 

brothers? I raised your aunt, so what’s wrong with asking for some money for 

your dad? How dare they demand the money back from us? I’ll make them 

pay double the amount! I’m telling you, I won’t stop until they cough up two 

hundred thousand! Those ungrateful bunch will live with cyberbullying for the 

rest of their lives!” 

Emmanuel seethed with anger as he listened to Hermann’s words. 

He couldn’t fathom how anyone could have respect for such an 

unreasonable and stubborn old man. 

In his view, his mother wasn’t meant to live solely for the sake of his uncle. 

She had her own children and her own family, so why should she sacrifice
