Sir madame has run away again (Lily and Carson) novel Chapter 257

Not being able to stand how authoritative this bitch sounded, I couldn’t help but laugh. “Mom, how can I ask them for money again when Carson hasn’t even returned my mom the few million he borrowed to start his business?”
Everyone got quiet when they heard me.
I took one look at the shameless family. “Also, my dad is still sick in the hospital and our relationship has improved a bit. Do you really think this is the right time to ask for money?”
Seeing that the entire family had gone silent, I got up and prepared to head back to my room as Carson immediately rushed over to me. “Honey, my mother doesn’t know the seriousness of the situation, so please don’t take her words seriously.”
“Don’t you know that she doesn’t know the gravity of the situation?” I took one look at Carson.
“It was too late for me to stop her, and I think you should know she’s always been that way too.”
“Okay, I know this isn’t your fault, but make sure you work it out well.” I softened my tone. “You also know that my relationship with my dad has gotten a little better, so you can’t go looking for him no matter how much you need the money, right? If not, how will he attend to you?”
“Yes, yes, Carson responded with a series of ‘yes’ before telling me. “Honey, I will find a way to pay back the seed money your mother lent me.”
What an ignorant fool. How dare you pull out the pity card when you didn’t even return the money when you had them and used them for your mistress. Are you trying to get out of this by acting like an idiot? I wouldn’t let you have the chance to do that. “Money is not a big issue as my mother doesn’t need it anyway. But, husband, my father seemed really angry that we didn’t pay back the money we borrowed.”
“Oh. Is Daddy upset?”
“Yes, I heard my mother trying to convince my father to take you in when I went to visit him after work, but he said…” I paused. “Promise me you won’t get mad when you hear this.”
“I’m not going to get mad,” Carson assured me.
“My father used to say that a man who only depended on women had no right to be his son-in-law.”
Though the changes in Carson’s facial expression were fascinating, I acted as if I hadn’t seen anything. “Husband, my father always talks like that, so don’t be offended, okay? At least I understand you more!”
“I’m not offended, dear. Your dad is the oldest anyway. Therefore, I will not take any of your criticisms personally.”
“I know my husband is a forgiving person, so I decided to tell you! Think about it, I’m my father’s only child, so he’s definitely going to leave the company to us. Our suffering in these few years was not “in vain, as we managed to get some experiences anyway. When we take over my father’s company, it wouldn’t be too difficult either.”
Carson’s eyes lit up when he heard me. That idiot must be feeling great. However, he was still a great actor and he didn’t forget to confess to me, explaining: “Darling, I married you because I love you, not because of your father’s company”.
“Of course I know that. I know all about my husband well but my dad is very stubborn. However, it’s not like I can blame him either. It’s just that something bad happened to him a while ago. The daughter of one of the bosses he knew fell in love with a university student who came from the village, and they got married too. They lived happily together at first, but guess what happened?”
“What happened?” Carson acted like he was interested, even though he probably already knew what I meant.
“The man started playing after taking over the company. So he took a mistress and started showering her with money. When his wife found out, he wasn’t even embarrassed. Instead, he began to physically abuse her.” I sighed after telling him about the incident.
