Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 10

Back at the living hall, Joshua glared at Jeanne as she walked away. Displeased, he said, "Where are her manners? Dad talked to her and she didn't even give a proper response."

Jenifer had a glance at her son. "Shush. Your sister just came back. Just give her some time to fit in."

"You're still defending her? She insulted you yesterday. Did you forget that?" Joshua's anger was obvious.

"Enough." Jenifer stopped her son from talking.

Alexander was also displeased by Jeanne's response.

As if Jeanne no longer respected him as a father, but on second thought, Jeanne was just a tool to him, so he did not need to be angry with her either.

He got up and said, "I'll go up to talk to Father."

"Sure." Jenifer nodded respectfully. She was the one who took good care of Alexander all these years and all men would like a woman like her. She was smart, obedient, and knew her place within the house.

Right after Alexander went up, Jasmine reverted to her true form.

"Mom, look at her. I don't like that arrogance of hers. Not only Joshua but even I also can't stand her anymore! Who does she think she is? The princess of the house? We threw her out seven years ago. She's now just some woman with a child! Why tolerate her attitude?"

"It's not that I want to tolerate her attitude but I don't have the time or the energy to be calculative with

someone like her," Jenifer said with a vicious grin.

"Once she married Thedus, that would be the end of her life. So, why do we have to waste our time on her? I let her be herself now because I don't want her to embarrass your father. You should know how far she can go if she's provoked. If we did something to her and caused her to ruin the marriage, we'll be held responsible by your father and your grandfather."

Jasmine understood her mother's patience.

Everyone tolerated Jeanne's attitude because they wanted her to marry Thedus.

Jeanne must have known that everyone depended on her now, hence the arrogance.

"It's okay. You guys don't have to be overly concerned. Seven years ago, I made her lose everything and now, I can do the same, or even worse." Jenifer was never concerned about Jeanne's attitude or her presence.

She looked at Jasmine and said, "You better prepare your wedding with Eden as well. Try to behave and don't cause any trouble."

"Don't worry. Eden and I are stable now. Nothing will happen." Jasmine sounded confident.

Jenifer nodded. She gave birth to Jasmine and brought her up with her own hands. She was certain that her daughter had inherited the ability to flatter all men on Earth.

She was not worried about her daughter at all.

Later in the afternoon, Alexander brought his family to the mall for shopping. They were told to pick decent

outfits for the charity ball later tonight.

Jeanne tagged along. She chose herself a silver dress. It was not revealing at all but due to the fit, it complemented her body and made her look like an elf under the lights.

She was born a beauty and she did not inherit it from her mother. She had a unique charm to her and she naturally felt like a vixen. The nonchalance on her could easily drive a man mad.

Jasmine was the complete opposite of Jeanne.

She was not exquisitely beautiful but she looked innocent and cute. She was the girl-next-door that all men would want to protect. The white dress that she chose made her stand out as well.

However, when she saw Jeanne's alluring charms, she was still jealous.

She should have disfigured Jeanne's face when she had the chance seven years ago.
