Love Is a Sweet Addiction

Anne walked behind Betty and helped her massage her shoulder. “Grandma, I couldn’t stand it at that time. I lied to Esther and told her that you wanted me to take her home. Who knew she would say so? She didn’t respect you. She has just married into the Gibson family for two days, and she becomes so arrogant. How will she be like in the future?”

Betty threw her phone heavily on the sofa and said angrily, “Call her back immediately. I will discipline her!”

“I just told Esther so, but she said that Grandma no longer had the right to get involved in her business and she refused to come back.”

Betty glanced at Doris, who had always been obedient and sat in a corner. Betty then said angrily, “You have raised a ‘good’ daughter. Call her and tell her that if she doesn’t return within 30 minutes, she won’t be allowed to come back again or see the Cusacks!”

Betty knew that Esther was most concerned about her timid mother and her vegetable father, who had been lying in the hospital all these years. If she heard Betty say so, she would definitely rush back.

Seeing that Betty was pointing her finger at her, Doris carefully said, “Mom, Esther has only married into the Gibson family for two days. She is not allowed to return back until three days after the wedding day. Even if we don’t care about the rule, the Gibsons do. Besides, tomorrow will be the third day. When the time comes, Esther will come back without my calling.”

After a pause, Doris continued, “There might be a misunderstanding about today’s incident. I’ll call Esther later and ask her what has happened.”

“Doris, how can you deny it?” Anne showed the video to Doris. “The video is right here!”

Doris’s expression gradually changed as she watched her daughter and the strange man in the video. However, she still firmly believed that her daughter was not this kind of person. It was impossible for her daughter to have an affair with another man while she was dating James.

“No, Esther has always been loyal to her boyfriend. She wouldn’t do such a thing….”

“Loyal? I think she is unfaithful.” Anne sneered and mocked, “Doris, have you forgotten that Esther was kept as a lover by a rich man five years ago and then was abandoned?”

“That’s not true. She’s just….”

“Just what? Did they love each other?” Anne interrupted Doris and coldly snorted, “That man’s wife even came to fight against Esther. There is no use to deny it. You’re just lying to yourself!”

…

In the Gibson’s, several elders were sitting on the sofa, not looking happy.

Especially Gill, after being reprimanded by Clark, she felt guilty so that she didn’t dare to say anything.

In the family banquet, Terence didn’t show up and Esther ran away with James halfway. Such a disgraceful thing happened under the noses of the entire family.

Amanda was also criticized by Clark. She had a sharp tongue. After stealing a glance at them, she muttered secretly, “Esther isn’t very beautiful. How could my James have anything to do with her? She must have seduced my James.”

After Amanda finished, she straightened her back and mocked Gill, “Gill, it is said that the daughter-in-law should be disciplined. Esther has brought you such a disgrace just after she’s married. If you don’t teach her a lesson, I’m afraid she won’t listen to you anymore.”

Gill’s expression suddenly darkened.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
