Perfect Mysterious Husband (Maddox and Kimberly) novel Chapter 1358

The woman's voice was extremely piercing.

Hence, Vera could still hear Dahlia's mockery even through the music.

Her gaze darkened, upset she was that unlucky to meet people like this on the train.

She couldn't be bothered to respond, so she closed her eyes and leaned backward. Turning up her music, she turned a deaf ear.

Everything would be fine once she got off the train, she thought.

It was cold that night, and Vera dozed off despite not feeling sleepy earlier. This was an overnight train, so the noise in the cabin died down eventually.

Vera actually felt rather sleepy in this environment, so she closed her eyes to rest.

She drew her coat closer to her and continued sleeping.

Little did she expect that not long after that, Hank began to make a fuss again and started asking for her earphones.

A passenger next to them couldn't stand it anymore, so he chastised the woman.

"Can you do something about your child? Everyone is sleeping."

Dahlia retorted without hesitation, "Why don't I throw him to you then? What can I do if he won't listen? If you want peace and quiet, book the whole d*mn cabin!"

The man was maddened by the screaming kid, so he couldn't help reprimanding.

However, little did he expect to be yelled at, so he fell silent, defeated.

Alas, the woman was still annoyed, so she kept on mocking.

"Some people need to know their place. You bought an economy cabin seat, yet you're so demanding. Can't you afford a couchette? You're so pathetic."

Livid, the man retorted, "Who said I couldn't afford a couchette? I would have gotten one if it wasn't sold out!"

"Really? Since you're so amazing, why didn't you book an entire cabin for yourself? Isn't it normal for kids to make a fuss? What an *ss."

"Fine, whatever. You win."

"You're ridiculous."

While saying this, Dahlia grabbed a handful of unshelled peanuts from her bag and shoved them to Hank. "Have some of this and stop crying. Don't you know that you've pissed someone off? I'll throw you off the train if you keep it up."

Hank fell silent after being scolded and perhaps because of the peanuts too, so he started nibbling them.

The cabin slowly quieted down again, and Vera finally let out a sigh of relief. Just as she was going to continue sleeping, something unexpected happened.

Hank started throwing the shells at her.

At first, Vera did not notice it because of her thick coat, but she gradually felt something was amiss.

She looked down and found several peanut shells on her coat. When she looked at the boy, he had a triumphant look on his face.

He looked as if he did it on purpose, exacting revenge on her for not lending him her earphones.

The difficult, spoiled brat type!

On the other hand, Dahlia became angry once she heard that. "Oh my lord, how could you? How can you curse him like that?!"

The woman started to make a big fuss and started screaming in the cabin.

"Everyone, please help me out. This lady here looks decent, but she cursed my boy after he accidentally tossed some peanut shells on her! How cruel! Please, do something!"

The woman moaned and groaned, but no one helped her.

That was because she and her child made a fuss one after the other. Hence, everyone was annoyed, and no one was willing to help her.

Seeing so, she fired her anger at Vera again.

"How can a girl like you be so vicious? You don't have a family of your own, I'm sure. I hope your child comes out deformed!"

Vera happened to be pregnant, so she became livid upon hearing the woman's words. She sneered, "If you can't educate your child properly, then don't have any! You're lucky you ran into me today instead of a ruffian, or else your child would be off the train by now. Also, he threw those shells at me on purpose, yet you allowed him to continue. Judging from your age, you're his grandmother, aren't you? Does your son know how poorly you're raising his child?"

Vera didn't want to waste her time on Dahlia at first, but it didn't mean she wouldn't fight back.

Now, she'd manage to stun Dahlia into silence with her witty retort.

A few of the passengers who were dissatisfied with Dahlia began to admire Vera.

After that, she glared at the woman before she put her earphones back on. Suddenly, Dahlia clasped her arm and said, "How dare you speak to me like that? Apologize now, or else!"
