Love is the Sunshine novel Chapter 593

"Do you honestly believe that I've never dreamt of living a happy married life with you?

Taking in a deep breath, Rhys heaved a heavy sigh and said, "I wanted to be a good husband to you, to treat you well. But you know that I've never been such an ambitious person. I just wanted to do my part and, at the very least, be a decent second son of the An family, but you're always pushing me to go head to head with the host in the An Family.

If you ask me, I don't really see what's so good about that. Am I not allowed to be contented with what we have? Why do I have to keep wanting more? I'm lucky enough to be able to enjoy my life as the second son of the An family. Why should I bother fighting for the right to be the heir?"

Since birth, Rhys had always been like this. His personality trait had been innate to him. Meaning to say, he was nothing like Marcus.

"But you won't ever stop pushing me and forcing me to do things I never really wanted to do.

Home is meant to be a place where you could be at ease, but right now, it feels more like a battlefield to me, because I am being forced to hear you run your mouth and complain about every little thing all the damn time.

Do you think any man in his right mind would want to stay in a place like that every single day?" —

After keeping it all in his chest for such a long time, Rhys exploded and hurled in a low voice, "Eunice, I seriously wanted to be a respectable husband. But have ever really given me a chance to do that?"

Then, he furiously loosened his collar and walked out the door.

"Don't bother waiting up for me. I won't be coming home for dinner!"

Feeling so helpless when she watched Rhys slam the door as he left, Eunice threw herself into the sofa and burst into tears.

"Am I the one who's wrong?

Even if I didn't try to push him, could he have really been a better husband to me?

Was it really all my fault? Am I the one to blame?

Oh, dear God, why is it so unfair? What did I do to deserve this?

Why couldn't I marry Terence? Instead, I got tied up with a playboy like Rhys?" she whispered under her breath.

By the time Carla and Violet were about to finally leave the shopping mall, it had already gotten late.

The mall was quite huge, so it took them quite a while to check every single shop. Carla were leisurely chatting along as they walked around. Since they were already there, they got the kids some clothes as well. When they were done having dinner and finally walked out of the mall, night had already fallen.

Carla was just planning to take Sally back to the Seaview Villa now that they were done.

Be that as it might, it looked like Violet wanted to have a bit more fun.

From out of nowhere, she took out a fancy invitation with golden letters on it and showed it to Carla. "Look at this, Carla. I found it in William's car when he drove me back home yesterday.

We might be able to have some fun in this place,"

Violet suggested, giving her a cunning gaze. "It's been so long since we did something like this. Why don't we just let others pick up the kids and bring them home? Then, we can have some time to relax and enjoy ourselves a bit more."

Shooting Violet quite a suspicious glance, Carla took the invitation she was holding and looked at it closely.

"A casino?" Carla blurted out, sounding so surprised.

"Bingo! I think we need to do something more exciting in order to relax. Going shopping all day long would be a bit too bland."

A smile sprawled across Violet's face, with her eyes glistening in anticipation. "You know what? This casino actually opened just recently, so it's going to hold a free grand opening event. Why don't we go there and try our luck? Come on! What do you say?"

From the way it looked, Violet seemed to be waiting with baited breath to go to the casino with her. For that reason, Carla couldn't hold back and let out a soft chuckle, "Violet, do you think it would be appropriate for two women to enter that kind of place?"

It should be worth mentioning that the large casinos in JA City were nothing like the other usual casinos some might be familiar with. Only the wealthiest of people or the most influential celebrities would walk into the large casinos and they tend to be high rollers as well.

"Of course, it is. What's wrong with that? There's two of us. Or, do you mean to tell me that you don't have the guts to go?"

Violet was deliberately trying to provoke Carla.

About an hour later, a car pulled over by the entrance of the newly opened luxury casino. Carla and Violet had arrived.

They could see different kinds of fancy cars parked all over the parking lot even from a mile away, not to mention those which were parked in the underground garage.

Violet successfully egged Carla into coming. And she had already asked someone to send the kids back home.

It should go without saying that it would be impossible to bring a kid into a place like this.

"Carla, I guess we don't have to hang out a lot. But I think we seriously need to make ourselves comfortable in this kind of place. Let's have a good time!

And besides, there's probably a lot of wealthy ladies hanging around here, so, you know, you have to get used to this kind of environment. The guys may come here every now and then to have some fun during festivals or holidays. That means they would probably need our company, so you shouldn't be so apprehensive when that time comes, right?"

As Violet stepped out of the car, she still hadn't forgotten to give Carla a constant reminder.
