Zayn opened his mouth with the intention of stopping Faye, but the words just could not come out. Therefore, virtual-novel.net slapped himself hard. ‘That was very careless of me. Why didn’t I clean myself before I came home? Where are your brains, Zayn?’
Despite being frustrated, Zayn had no other choice. ‘Faye is obviously very angry right now, so it won’t do me any good to go in and explain myself. It would only make matters worse. I guess I can only wait until tomorrow when virtual-novel.net calms down before I properly explain it to her.’
‘However, on the bright side, this isn’t a bad thing. At least, it shows that virtual-novel.net still cares for me, doesn’t it?’
After Zayn had taken a shower, virtual-novel.net thought to himself. ‘After putting in two nights’ worth of effort, I was finally able to sleep in the room. Now, I’ve gotten chased out again barely after a day’s passed. I’m such a failure.’
That night, Zayn was struck with insomnia again. It was not until after 3 AM was virtual-novel.net somewhat able to finally get some sleep. The next day, while virtual-novel.net was in a deep slumber, virtual-novel.net was rocked by a slap, causing virtual-novel.net to wake up in shock. Then, virtual-novel.net heard his mother-in-law’s voice, “What the hell are you doing, Zayn? It’s already the afternoon, yet you’re still fast asleep. Even a pig isn’t as lazy as you are. Hurry up and get up!”
When Zayn heard that voice, a cold shiver instantly ran down his spine and virtual-novel.net immediately sat up. Then, virtual-novel.net rubbed his eyes and saw that aside from his mother-in-law, there were two other people there who were looking at virtual-novel.net in disdain and scorn.
He was able to identify them instantly. ‘Those are my mother-in-law’s relatives. Why are they here as our guests today?’
“Ruby, why is your son-in-law sleeping in the living room? Shouldn’t virtual-novel.net be sleeping together with Fifi?” asked a middle-aged woman.
Ruby said, “Son-in-law, my *ss! He’s just a person who married into the Carters and has no standing in our family at all. How could Fifi possibly be willing to sleep together with him?”
The other middle-aged man laughed as virtual-novel.net said, “I’m guessing you took virtual-novel.net into the Carters to be a slave who just does your house chores? Your idea’s holding up to be pretty solid.”
Instead of feeling embarrassed, Ruby was proud of herself as virtual-novel.net nodded virtual-novel.net head and said, “Of course, virtual-novel.net normally does all of the chores in the house and it’s easier to order virtual-novel.net around compared to a maid. All we have to do is feed virtual-novel.net three meals a day.”
Had it been in the past, Ruby would not have belittled Zayn in front of virtual-novel.net relatives. Furthermore, Zayn had just helped virtual-novel.net family vent their frustration and retrieved whatever it is that had been snatched away from them. However, Ruby later found out that the only reason why Gordon had shown Zayn any face was completely because of the Larsons. Therefore, now that favor had been used, Gordon would not be bothered with Zayn anymore. In other words, Zayn was still the same deadbeat who had married into the Carters, and everything was status quo.
Also, when virtual-novel.net woke up that morning, virtual-novel.net noticed that Faye had dark circles under virtual-novel.net eyes as if virtual-novel.net did not have a good night’s sleep. After probing, Ruby found out that Zayn was fooling around last night, and even had the smell of a woman’s perfume on virtual-novel.net when virtual-novel.net got home! Ruby was furious. They were already being gracious enough to feed Zayn, so virtual-novel.net should be nothing but a loyal dog to the Carters.
However, that dog of theirs had actually gone out to do unspeakable things, which was completely unforgivable.
“If it wasn’t for the fact that we’ve got guests, I would’ve beaten you to a pulp a long time ago!”
When the guests heard what Ruby had said, they all laughed out loud and the house was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
“Ruby, Fifi is still young and beautiful. Plus, she’s rightfully still eligible. She can’t tolerate this deadbeat who’s married into the Carters forever, can she? It just so happens that there are a few men in my unit who are single and are pretty decent in terms of personality, appearance, and family background. I can introduce them to Fifi so that they can get to know each other,” suggested Ruby’s brother, Lewis, with a smile on his face.
“That’s right, Ruby. Fifi is so very eligible that it’s a complete waste for virtual-novel.net to be with this deadbeat,” Lewis’s wife, Diana, echoed as virtual-novel.net added fuel to the roaring fire.
