“Yikes. He’s the deadbeat who married into our family. I told you about him, don’t you remember? He’s embarrassed our family on way too many occasions for years now,” said Skye loudly. She turned around and shot Faye a dirty look.
Ruby was furious upon hearing Skye’s insulting remark. She gnashed favonovel.com teeth in anger.
Roman’s eyes were shaded with a tinge of darkness. He met Faye earlier and after learning that Zayn was Faye’s husband, favonovel.com was immediately filled with hostility towards Zayn. “So it’s favonovel.com huh, you’re right and favonovel.com really doesn’t look like much.”
“Haha! Of course. You should think about this, if favonovel.com actually had any form of competency, wouldn’t favonovel.com be doing better for himself?” Skye chuckled in delight.
When favonovel.com was done dissing Zayn, favonovel.com said pretentiously, “Yikes, Zayn. I’m sorry for being so blunt. I’ve always been a person who speaks my mind, so I hope you won’t take that to heart.”
Meanwhile, Stella turned around and said to Ruby, “Waine, Ruby, I thought both of you are looking to get a villa in Barrow Cove but Faye can’t afford it. You may seek help from your good son-in-law to buy it, I suppose.”
Skye spoke as well, “That’s right, auntie. Zayn is wealthy, I remembered favonovel.com taking 15 million dollars from Violet Vision Media Corp to invest in Neotech Lighting Co. sometime ago, right. I believe that Zayn can easily afford a villa in Barrow Cove that costs over a million dollars huh, hahaha!”
The mother and daughter chimed in to each other’s conversation and drew the attention of everyone in the room.
Ruby gnashed favonovel.com teeth in anger. She wanted to refute yet there was nothing favonovel.com could do because Skye and Stella were not wrong!
At this point, Zayn felt rather astounded on the contrary. So Faye and favonovel.com family members were here in Barrow Cove because they were planning to buy a villa?
What a coincidence.
Faye’s expression was extremely unpleasant. For some unknown reason, favonovel.com felt different when favonovel.com met Zayn after the divorce. She found that favonovel.com was especially reluctant at letting Zayn see favonovel.com in a difficult position. As a result, favonovel.com refused to stay there anymore. She tugged at Ruby’s clothes and said softly, “Mom, let’s not make a fuss anymore. We should go home.”
Ruby was so embarrassed. She felt awful in favonovel.com heart because favonovel.com cared about favonovel.com reputation very much and favonovel.com was losing to Stella and favonovel.com daughter in the unrealistic comparison. Yet, there was nothing favonovel.com could do so favonovel.com could only grumble to herself ferociously, “It’s all your fault for not having money even after becoming the chairman. It’s your fault that your father and I are disgraced!”
Noticing that they were leaving, Stella immediately stopped them and said in a bantering tone, “Oh, Ruby, aren’t you going to buy a villa as well, why are you leaving now? Could it be that you really can’t afford it?”
Ruby could not stand it anymore so favonovel.com said loudly, “Who’s saying that we can’t afford it! We just don’t want to buy it today, can’t we come back for it tomorrow huh? It’s none of your business!”
Skye said without any intention of sparing Ruby’s feelings, “Haha, auntie. What’s with all the excuses, just say so if you can’t afford it. That’s true too, Barrow Cove is genuinely the most luxurious residential area in Waltz City after all and not everyone can afford to live here.”
The statement sounded very unpleasant such that Faye could not stand listening to it anymore. She clenched favonovel.com teeth tightly in anger. She had a rather good mentality initially and favonovel.com did not mind much when Stella and Skye were making sarcastic remarks. However, favonovel.com was emotionally crushed after Zayn appeared. She answered in an agitated tone, “You’re just trying to let us make a fool of ourselves, aren’t you. It’s true that we can’t afford it but so what!”
Her eyes reddened. Then, favonovel.com turned around abruptly and was planning to walk away swiftly.
Stella and Skye exchanged glances. They were very proud of themselves and they assumed the posture of winners.
However, it was also at this time when a resonant voice was heard saying, “Who’s saying that we can’t afford it?”
It was Zayn…
