"He wasn’t just ignoring , he’s just really busy with work..." Besides, she never expected to run into her mother today.
Joseph Sumrs was so angered by his daughter’s muttering that he shot to his feet, pointed at her, and cursed, "And now you think you’re in the right? How could I, Joseph Sumrs, have raised such a shaless daughter!"
No matter how her parents had scolded her before, she hadn’t been overly upset, because she was the one in the wrong. It was her fault.
But now, hearing her father call her shaless, she froze completely.
’I really was shaless. I clung to Tristan Grayson and beca his wife. Now he’s dumped , and I’ve shalessly gotten pregnant, still clinging to him... I really do deserve to be called that!’
’Even knowing that Tristan Grayson is with that other woman right now, I’ve never thought about leaving him.’
’I even want to pretend I don’t know, just to hold on to my marriage, my family... Dad’s right. I am shaless...’
"That’s enough! She’s my daughter. When you curse her like that, aren’t you cursing too?" Una Sullivan could scold her own daughter, but she absolutely wouldn’t let anyone else do it.
Joseph Sumrs shot Una Sullivan a look and said, "Don’t be ridiculous. You know that’s not what I ant."
"Hmph! Who knows what you ant!" Una Sullivan huffed angrily and ignored Joseph Sumrs.
After Una Sullivan’s outburst, Joseph Sumrs couldn’t bring himself to curse at Mika anymore. He could only sit down on the sofa, bottling up a stomachful of rage.
’To think that I, Joseph Sumrs, have lived for most of my life and have never been so humiliated! And now, in my old age, my precious daughter—the one who’s always been the least trouble—has gone and caused such a huge ss.’
’She secretly got her marriage certificate and even got pregnant. If word of this gets out, we’ll be a laughingstock...’
Seeing that her parents-in-law had fallen silent, Eleanor Bishop took Mika Sumrs’s hand and said in a hushed voice, "Mika, co with ."
Mika Sumrs nodded and started to leave with her sister-in-law.
Seeing them about to leave, Joseph Sumrs’s anger flared uncontrollably and he roared, "You! Stop right where you are! Don’t move!" ’Not a single word of explanation, and she thinks she can just leave?’
"Dad..." Mika Sumrs looked at Joseph Sumrs, her face etched with grievance.
Joseph Sumrs waved his hand dismissively and barked, "Don’t call Dad. I don’t have a daughter like you."
Just then, Archie Sumrs happened to arrive. Seeing his dad scolding Mika, he rushed over and shielded her behind him. "Dad, this is my fault, don’t bla Mika! It’s my failure as an older brother. I didn’t watch over her properly."
"So you’re saying you knew all along that your sister married soone?" Joseph Sumrs asked sharply, his eyes narrowed.
"Yes... I knew all along..."
Joseph Sumrs’s hands were trembling with rage. "Fine! The two of you, brother and sister, hiding this from ! Do you think that just because I’m old, your wings have hardened and you don’t need to look after you anymore?!"
"That’s not it..." Archie Sumrs and Mika Sumrs both replied, their heads lowered.
Seeing her two children like this, Una Sullivan’s heart ached for them. She completely forgot that she had just been giving Joseph Sumrs the silent treatnt. She quickly got up, grabbed his arm, and coaxed him softly, "Alright... don’t be angry anymore..."
Furious, Joseph Sumrs shook off Una Sullivan’s hand and went back to his room.
Una Sullivan had no choice but to follow him.
Eleanor Bishop breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her parents-in-law leave. But before she could fully relax, Archie Sumrs’s vicious words rang out, "Didn’t I tell you to keep a low profile lately? Look at the ss you’ve caused!"
