The Wrong Woman

Nathan was stunned. He looked into Suzanne’s bright, round eyes. Tears were welling up in

her eyes.

He felt a sense of unfamiliarity. At the same time, he didn’t understand why she was upset. So, he felt a little irritated.

“What’s wrong?”

Suzanne turned away from him and quickly wiped away the tears.

She calmed herself down and said, “It’s evening right now. All of your family members should be at home. I’ll head in first. Stand at the door and listen to what happens.”

She stepped out of the car after she said that. She walked into the house without waiting for Nathan.

As soon as she walked in, Suzanne met the butler, Edgar.

Edgar was about 50 years old. He was very stoic and quick–witted. He quickly snapped back to his senses after his initial shock.

“Welcome, Mrs. Morrison. You’re just in time. Dinner is about to start,” Edgar said politely.

Suzanne could tell Edgar was only polite to her because of his professional ethics. Everyone in the household was prejudiced against her.

“Thanks,” Suzanne replied politely before walking in.

In the middle of the luxurious living room, everyone in the Morrison family was seated around a seven– foot–long coffee table. They were happily chatting. The atmosphere was very peaceful.

“Mom, Dad, good evening…”

The sound of Suzanne’s voice destroyed the peaceful atmosphere.

Suddenly, everyone went quiet. Everyone stared at Suzanne coldly.

She felt a chill run down her spine and her skin crawl. She was anxious and felt lost. She wanted to greet the rest of the in–laws, but someone spoke up and drowned her voice out.

“Honey, who is this? Who is she calling mom and dad?”

“Her? She’s the caregiver who lives in Shovale and takes care of Grandma. I don’t know how

much she brainwashed Grandma. She managed to make Grandma force Nathan to marry her by threatening to kill herself. Did you forget? She came to live with us for a few days last month.”

“Oh, so that’s who she is. I completely forgot.”

“You’re so forgetful. A cunning and shameless woman like her is truly hard to forget.”

“I feel so sad for

Nathan. He holds such an.

“You’re absolutely right. A woman like her is not good enough to be a maid, much less a wife. Her existence is a stain on our household.”

“Edgar, send my food to my room if she’s living here. I don’t want to dine at the same table as her. She makes me lose my appetite.”

Everyone took a jab at her without consideration of her feelings. They ridiculed her before the elders and children.

Suzanne clenched her fists. She was shaking from the anger. Tears were welling up in her eyes from her frustration, but she used every bit of her willpower to hold back the tears.

The humiliation she felt when she just moved in was even worse. Back then, she believed Vera’s words. She thought the feeling was mutual between her and Nathan.

She endured the torment from his family members for love. She thought at least Nathan loved her.

At that moment, it all felt laughable to her. She wondered if Nathan thought as badly of her as the rest of his family.

Suzanne cleared her throat to speak, but her voice still quivered slightly.

“I’m sorry for bothering all of you. I just came back to tell you that I will be getting a divorce with Nathan. You won’t have to worry about me causing trouble for you in the future.”

Suzanne didn’t want to speak ill of Nathan. This was the only way she could let him know how much humiliation she suffered in this household.

If Nathan didn’t love him, he should set her free!

“Oh, a divorce? That’s great! We have to open some good wine to celebrate…”

Everyone suddenly stopped talking. Their gaze became gentle. They looked humble and

anxious as they looked at the man behind Suzanne.
