Chapter 218
“Well, my attitude can’t be changed. If you are unhappy, you can leave! It’s not like I want you here anyway!” I answered without ceremony.
“Are you kicking us out? What is this world coming to?” my mother-in-law screamed.
“This world is made of law and order, and your loud voice is not the law!” Since I had decided to make a fuss, I might as well be thorough about it. “You don’t have to make thinly-veiled accusations at me and treat me like a criminal. I didn’t do anything wrong and I don’t owe you anything. Also, you have to remember that I’m married to Carson. , not for you. So what if I held another man’s hand? Even if I was caught in bed with another man, it has nothing to do with you. You’re just a stranger, so you don’t have the right to interrogate me with that kind of tone!”
Everyone was surprised by my outburst. Stunned, Carson reached out to take mine. “Honey, are you in a bad mood today?”
“If you were me, would you be in a good mood? Do you assholes really have nothing better to do than come and insult me all the time? Do you think 1, Lilian Hawkins, I’m a piece of cake? Just piss off and leave me alone!” With that, I opened the door, walked into my room and slammed it behind me.
Silence fell in the room for a while before Eliza said with some frustration, “Carson, she really was holding hands with a man in the hospital today. Why don’t you ask her about it?”
Then, Eliza’s frustrated voice softened. Clearly, someone had signaled her not to say more. I huffed and went into the bathroom to wash my hands.
When I came out of the bathroom, I saw Carson standing in the bedroom looking at me. “Honey, I apologize on behalf of
from Eliza for what happened just now.”
Of course, it was definitely hard for this idiot to have to apologize without getting my explanation first.
I sat down with a grumpy face. “What are you apologizing for? Isn’t it time you quizzed me on why I would want to hold hands with another man?”
“Honey, you know how Eliza is. She is impulsive and often speaks her mind without thinking. I’m sure you’re not that kind of person.”
“Well, I suppose you’re still a reasonable man. If you were a man who couldn’t tell right from wrong, you’d come interrogating me right after listening to her nonsense.” I looked at him and smoked.
“We have been married for so many years. Of course, I know you best! Honey, please don’t be angry anymore. After all, you are still recovering. Let’s go out to eat, okay?”
Looking at Carson pretending, I actually felt nauseous.
Just now, I had been angry on purpose. Initially, I hadn’t intended to tell Carson about my father’s hospitalization, but now that Eliza accidentally saw me, there was no longer any need to hide the subject.
So I deliberately exploded into a tantrum simply to take advantage of the subject and take out my irritation on those people. Plus, I also wanted to see how Carson would react when he found out I was holding hands with another man.
Well, Carson’s reaction was beyond my imagination. This idiot longed to know the truth, but he could still do such an act.
“You don’t want to know why I showed up at the hospital hand in hand with another man?”
“Honey, let’s not talk about this matter first. You’re still hungry, so let’s eat first. We’ll talk more about that after eating.”
“You still don’t believe me, right? Anyway, I have to tell you sooner or later, so I’ll say it now. I went to the hospital today to visit my dad.”
