Chapter 188 They Quarreled

“You’re right. We should prepare a gift. But it shouldn’t be so expensive, right? That bracelet represents identity. Even I don’t have it, why should I give it to that woman? Don’t you know what kind of identity Elena has? And Ryan, he is clearly not my child. Why do you have to give such a precious thing to his wife?”

Amanda was very dissatisfied in her heart. How could a thing, which was even not given to her, was given to a woman like Elena?

However, she did not expect that after she finished speaking, Charles looked at her with a fierce look in his eyes. “I originally thought that you would not care about these things. But I didn’t expect you to be this type of woman. Otherwise, how could I be at ease and let you raise him? Ryan is indeed not you son. But he is my son. The child is Elena’s womb is my grandson. What I want is my business. It has nothing to do with you.”

Hearing his words, Amanda shouted. “That’s right. I know very well that Ryan isn’t my child, but I raised him as my own son. If he isn’t my child, he naturally won’t be able to befriend me. You know better than me what he has done all these years. Do you think Ryan is a good person? His only goal is to fight for the family property with my son!”

Amanda, who had been enduring silently for so many years, finally exploded. All these years, she had indeed regarded Ryan as her own son.

However, ever since his legs were crippled, she did not have any respect for him. In her eyes, that man was just a cripple who didn’t have any value or right.

Although Ryan still called her mother on the surface, what did he think? It was not like she did not know. No matter what, she had raised him for more than 20 years. Why couldn’t she get a trace of sincerity?

However, Charles only slightly raised the corner of his mouth, and there was a mocking tone in his voice, “How is Ryan’s leg broken? You should know that, right? Do you think you took them all off perfectly?”

Charles was not stupid but he just didn’t want to believe it. What Elena said today was absolutely right.

He only needed to think about who had the most benefits in this matter, and he would naturally know who had done it. Some accidents were too much of a coincident. But this matter couldn’t be a coincident.

Hearing this, Amanda’s pupils suddenly contracted, and her face was filled with disbelief. “Are you blaming me? This was an accident in itself, why should it be blamed on me?”

Amanda tried to argue. She could admit what she had done, but she would never admit what she had never done. She had never done this before.

Charles sneered in response. “I didn’t say that you did it. Why are you so excited? I just want to remind you that if you don’t want people to know, you should behave yourself. You have to think about what you should do and what you shouldn’t do.”

Although it looked like he was reminding her, the threat in his voice was self-evident. He was indirectly indicating her to stay away from Ryan and his family. Otherwise, the consequences would be terrible.

After Charles finished speaking, he turned around and walked out. He didn’t want to waste his time anymore. He had lived with this woman for nearly 30 years. There was no need for quarreling. Although they were married just for a business deal, they had lived together for a couple of years. There was still a trace of affection between them. He did not want to say too much, and just wanted to give a reminder.

Amanda looked at the retreating figure in disbelief. After that she sat on the chair and buried her head in crying. She did not expect that after being married for so many years, he still did not trust her.

Probably because they heard the argument downstairs, Roman and Amara looked at each other. Roman wanted to go down to take a look but was stopped by Amara.

“You don’t need to get involved in uncle and aunt’s business anymore. Their problem can be solved by themselves. We can’t solve the problem even if we go.

Amara still had her own selfish motives. That old woman had slapped and insulted her in front of so many people. Now when Amara saw her sorry state, she could not describe her joy. She just wanted to hide and watch a joke.

The only thing she needed to do now was to think about how to deal with Tina, that woman. Previously, that woman did not get any benefits from Ryan, so she came to Roman’s place. Did that woman really think that Roman would take her to fill in the house?

“I have never heard of parents quarreling since I was young. This is the first time. It is probably because of the matter between us.”

Roman was talking about him and Ryan. The conflict between the two brothers had been going on for more many years. He only hoped that he could control the company earlier so that he wouldn’t have to worry about being threatened by others.

As for what happened to Ryan, that was his own business. Roman didn’t want to interfere and couldn’t do anything about it.
