His Real Wedded Bride novel Chapter 355

Aron turned to Fiona, holding his temper. "Did you have to sound so cynical talking to my grandparents? I will say it again: I bought the house myself and they had nothing to do with it." He was helping Albert's family take their luggage out of the car.

"You bought the house yourself?!" Fiona scoffed. "Well aren't you the boastful one!" Unable to stop herself, she continued further. "You would never have earned so much if your grandparents did not let you run the company! You should think about Colin, and not just make money for yourself."

Aron resigned himself to his aunt's ranting so he just kept quiet. After taking out the bags, he said, "It's already late. You can stay here if you wish, but tomorrow... You will have to leave. You can't stay here. Now that you're back, you need to find a house of your own. We don't run a shelter here, " he told Albert's family.

"How can you say such things?!" Colin exclaimed. He grabbed Aron by the collar and growled, "Let me tell you something... I have every right to whatever you are enjoying now. That had better be clear to you."

Still holding the collar of Aron's shirt, he spat, "If not for me, you would not be rich and live a comfortable life! Don't think you're so great just because you have been the company's general manager for several years. Just to warn you, I am going with you to work tomorrow. And sooner or later, I'm going to prove myself better than you!"

Aron smirked at Colin. "Anytime, my cousin." He brushed off Colin's hand and declared, "I'm ready for the challenge. But, you still have to move out tomorrow."

Albert, Fiona, and Colin listened to him in disbelief. "What is wrong with you?" Fiona demanded. "Why should we listen to you and move out?" Waving her arms in exasperation, she said, "We are you uncle and aunt, your elders. What gives you the right to kick us out?"

"The house is under my name and that gives me the right." There was a steely edge to Aron's voice, even as he held his temper.

He could not remember how many times he chose to swallow the insults and humiliating words from these people because he refused to embarrass his grandparents. But enough was enough.

"Did you hear what your nephew said, Albert?" Fiona fumed. "How dare he speak to me in this manner! Are you not going to do anything… teach him a lesson?"

Voice raised, Albert berated Aron. "You ungrateful bastard! How could you talk to your aunt like that?" The man grabbed a broom resting by the door, slightly raised it as if to hit Aron while saying, "If I had known you would turn out to be an ungrateful bastard, I would never have taken pity on you, and brought you home to raise you!"

Blood rushing to his ears, Aron snatched the broom from Albert and stared at him with eyes so fierce his uncle shuddered in fear. "If you don't want to drag your suitcase to a hotel in the middle of the night, you better behave yourself, " he said in a low voice, every word given emphasis. Taking a deep breath, Aron continued, "You never raised me a day in your life, so don't act like you sacrificed anything for me.

As for my grandparents, I care about them with all my heart. But you? You're nothing but just relatives to me!" Albert had never seen such look on Aron's face and it unnerved him a little.

Fiona, too, backed down a bit and began whispering to Albert how Aron may soon be robbing their son of his share of the family fortune. She also reminded her husband about the considerable dowry presented by Aron's mother when they got married, and the young man was now staking his claim on the family's riches.

And this was the reason why Albert never regarded Aron as his nephew… or as a family. Rather, he thought of him as an enemy.

Growing up, Aron was always polite in front of Albert, which led his uncle to believe it was easy to fool and bully him. But Aron was anything but a fool or a weakling. How could he be when he had been hustling in the business world for many years? In business circles, he was well-known as an action man.

Because of this confrontation, Albert now regretted more than ever his decision to allow Aron to be part of their family.
