Not Again Mr Whitney novel Chapter 10

The servants were all peeping at this scene in front of the gate.

“We’re all human beings. Who can take that kind of insult? I bet he will definitely leave the Houston family.

”I don’t think so. He has been insulted all these years and he must have gotten used to this. Also, who would wanna leave a hot girl like Miss Houston? If I were him, I wouldn’t leave even if they beat me up every day.”

Seeing that Carrie was tossing his stuff everywhere, Calvin didn’t get mad. Even he didn’t know why he was so peaceful right now.

After she finished cursing and was gasping heavily, he looked up at her calmly.

“Mom, what are you so outrageous about? It’s bad for your health.”

Rita patted on Carrie’s back and was surprised that he asked her this question when he clearly knew the answer.

Carrie was overwhelmed by her wrath again and she stared at Calvin, “Are you playing dumb with me? Everything happened tonight was caused by you and you have the guts to ask me that question? How can you be so shameless?”

Calvin was still calm and peaceful, “Tonight? What did I do? I didn’t talk back or hit back.”

“Vincent humiliated me and I didn’t say anything.”

“The aunts humiliated me, and I let that slide.”

“And you, you slapped me in the face and I didn’t say anything either.”

“So please tell me, what else should I do?”

Carried was shocked by his words. Was he still the coward he used to be? He didn’t yell but his voice was firm and determined.

No way. This must be an illusion caused by her anger.

“You are wrong. Today’s my mom’s big day and you ruined it. Do you know how much did we spend on this party? You douche. From the second you came to this family, you never made a penny and kept making troubles for us. Why would we keep you here?”

“These two years, I paid for everything you’ve ever used or eaten and you ungrateful bastard kept good stuff like that to yourself. I won’t mind if you don’t give that to me. But what about Rita? She’s your wife and you didn’t even think about sharing with her? Rita, you have to divorce him.”

Rita didn’t feel okay about this either but she was calmer than Carrie.

“Mom, it’s too late. Just put this aside for tomorrow. You’ve been busy all day.”

Carrie threw off her hands and said, “No, if I don’t get this straight today, how could I fall asleep tonight? It’s one million dollars! And he drank it all!”

Every time she thought about the phrase “extend life and maintain beauty”, Carrie would feel extremely painful and regretful and she would hate Calvin even more.

Calvin snorted, “You were the ones who said it was a rotten walnut from a trashcan and no one had ever believed in me the whole time.”

“You...” Carrie stuttered. He was telling the truth. She thought it was indeed a rotten walnut even now.

“Stop talking back to me! Let me ask you one more time, why did you say Vincent’s jade amulet is deadly? Do you know how mad my mother was? If anything happened to her, you’ll never make it up for her even if you die.”

Calvin didn’t respond and just sneered at her.

Rita frowned and didn’t know why he could smile at this point.

Something was terribly wrong with Calvin today.

She couldn’t tell which part was wrong but Calvin was like a whole new person today.

“Why are you laughing? How dare you? Do you have any consciousness?”

Calvin finally spoke, “What is consciousness?”

“Yes, I’ve never made any money. But I have been doing all the chores around the house since day one.”

“For two years, for more than seven hundred days, I have been a servant to you and father since my wedding night. I never stopped attending your needs for a single day. And you think I don’t have any consciousness?”
