Chapter 8
“That day, it was Dimitri who saved me. He asked around and took me to find you.” My mom shed tears and choked as she spoke, “Quinni, I owe my life to Dimitri. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have seen you.“N
I felt mixed emotions. Sometimes, it would be better if we could rely on anyone else, but it would be way better to strengthen ourself and be our own solid backing.
“Mom, you still can’t bear to leave Dad, will you forgive him?“N
My mom smiled bitterly, “No, Quinni. I have figured it out now. If I lose, I lose. I want to live for myself and for the Lawrence Family, otherwise your grandpa will scold me in his grave.“N
“Mom, you must divorce him and I will divorce Richard, too.”
My mom held my hand. “Sweetheart, I will always support whatever matters to you. There are many good men. You don’t need to hang yourself on a crooked tree.“N
“Mom, we must take back the Lawrence Family and drive those who bully us out of the Lawrence Family.“M
That day, Dimitri came back and we discussed a detailed plan. The next day I was discharged from the hospital and took my mother back to the Lawrence Family.
Dad was stunned when he saw Dimitri. He flatteringly smiled, “Mr. Lafayette, it’s a great honor to welcome you to my house!”
Dimitri sat down and directly said, “Mr. Lawrence, Quinni and I are already husband and wife. I don’t want her family to be criticized. You should divorce Mrs. Ortish.”
As soon as Luna heard it, she spit out the tea she had just drunk. The woman blurted out with a frown, “Quinni, you bitch…”
The voice stopped abruptly and she covered her mouth in panic. She looked at Dimitri quickly, “No, that’s not what I meant. I mean that Afro Cartier is the bitch in our family. She should have been taught a lesson long ago. If she hadn’t showed up at the banquet last time, I would have beaten her up. She’s a shameless mistress instead of a good person.”
After she finished speaking in a hurry, she realized what she had said. Af mistress for twenty years, wasn’t she even more shameless and mean?
was shameless to be a mistress, but what about her? A
A flash of embarrassment flashed across Dad’s face and he whispered, “Mr. Lafayette, my wife and I have a deep love for each other. She has been ill for more than ten years and I have never left her. Now that she is well, it is even more impossible for me to divorce her.“} “Back then, she accompanied me through so much hardship and criticism. I finally became rich, but she fell ill. Now that she is well, I must make it up to her and take her around to have fun.“>
As he spoke, his eyes were red. If the people really knew him, they would believe that he was a real man with deep love and loyalty.”
I sneered and looked at my father who was good at making excuses. I glanced at Luna from the corner of my eyes and she was staring at my mother with resentment in her eyes.
“Dad, I know you are doing this for the Lawrence Family, but Luna has been with you for twenty years, she had already grown up. You can’t always be inappropriate. Besides, after I marry the Lafayette Family, how will others see me?”
Dad looked at Dimitri hugging me and stroking my hair affectionately. His eyes moved quickly, flashing with brilliance. Then he spoke quickly, “Luna, you are just the nanny I hired to take care of the little Reinhard. Now that he’s grew up well, you don’t need to stay at home. Pack up and go back to your hometown.“}]
Luna was immediately dumbfounded, “Ronald, you can’t be so heartless. I have been with you for more than 20 years. You want to dump me now. Do you want to force me to death?”
Luna pulled her father’s arm and begged, “Ronald, you promised to marry me. You can’t be afraid of having a rich son–in–law. I have loved you for so many years and you are my only man. You can’t be this heartless.“}]
