TRASHED HUSBAND AND UNFAITHFUL WIFE, VOLUME 3 - Season 4 Episode 81

Jordan looked at Marissa and Chris’s mother before saying, “I’m Chloe’s father. Shouldn’t you be informing me before taking Chloe away?”

Chris’s mother sneered and asked, “Why do I have to inform you? Who do you think you are?”

Chris’s mother obviously despised Jordan because she knew he had no foundation and connections in DC.

Marissa also said, “Chloe has always been by her mother’s side. Chloe has to go wherever Lauren goes. Why must I inform you!?”

Jordan was extremely displeased, and he requested, “I don’t care what stupid rules the Hanks have. No matter what, I want to see my daughter every day.”

Chris’s mother refuted vehemently, “Impossible! The Hanks will never allow someone like you to enter as you please!”

“Forget about seeing Chloe for the next three days. You can request it again after we get married!”

Chris’s mother was very insistent and harsh, so Lauren couldn’t retort either. She said to Jesse, “Jesse, just bear with it for two days, okay?”

Jordan glanced at Chris’s mother in displeasure before nodding at Lauren. “Okay, I’ll send you there then.”

Lauren and Chloe were about to move into Chris’s parents’ home, but Jordan still didn’t know where they lived. He decided he had to find out their exact address.

Jordan drove Lauren’s Jeep and fetched her and Chloe to a villa cluster named Royal Mansions.

Not only was this place strategically located and expensive, but the interior of the villas was also top-notch.

The palm trees, and artificial boulders accentuated its uniqueness. It definitely cost a bomb to bring the palm trees and plantains that would usually survive only in the tropics to DC.

Arriving at a grand and posh bungalow, Jordan pulled over, knowing that it was Chris’s parents’ home because he had already seen Chris standing at the door.

Chris walked over and helped Lauren carry her luggage.

Jordan got out of the car, too.

Chris glanced at Jordan and said, “I didn’t expect you to come too. I don’t intend to let you stay for dinner.”

Jordan looked at the villa and recognized the location carefully. “I don’t intend to go inside either.”

Jordan handed the car keys back to Lauren and said, “I’m leaving. Call me if you need anything.”

He then waved goodbye to Chloe and said, “Baby, remember to call me when you miss me.”

“Okay, bye bye, Daddy.”

Chloe was carrying a little backpack, looking extremely adorable.

Jordan looked at Chloe’s lovely face and couldn’t help but pinch her little face again.

‘How adorable. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to see her for the next two days. If Chloe gets mistreated here, I won’t spare the Hanks!’

“Okay, quickly head inside. It’s time to eat!”

Chris’s mother said loudly, looking at Chloe scornfully.

Lauren waved her hand at Jordan before taking Chloe’s hand and bringing her inside.

After entering the living room and walking to the dining hall, Chloe saw the spread of food on the dining table. The little glutton then scurried over and reached her hand out for a bread roll.

However, Chloe was just about to do so. Chris’s mother slapped her hand.

“Have you washed your hands? You’re grabbing it with them just like that! Why don’t you have any manners at all!?”

Chris’s mother lashed out at Chloe and began to lecture her.

This time, the blow was so hard that Chloe immediately started sobbing with tears in her eyes.

Lauren hurried over and hugged Chloe. “Chloe, don’t cry. Let’s go get your hands washed. You can eat only after your hands are washed. Have you forgotten?”

Lauren took Chloe to get her hands washed before sitting on the chair. Chloe tried to take the bread roll with her hand again, but Chris’s mother stopped her again.

“No one is allowed to eat before everyone is seated!”

It turned out that Chris’s father was still upstairs. A maid went upstairs to invite him to come downstairs. Soon, a tall and domineering middle-aged man made his way down the stairs.

“Lauren’s here.”

The man nodded at Lauren, smilingly.

“Hello, Uncle Dominic,” Lauren greeted respectfully.

He knew the Hanks earned their present glory, largely because of Chris’s father, who had a high status in DC.

After Chris’s father sat down, Chris’s mother said, “Lauren, don’t eat yet. Scoop a bowl of soup for each of us.”

Lauren asked, “Isn’t there a maid here?”

In the Howard family, the servants were usually the ones to scoop the soup and stuff.

The Hanks were wealthy and powerful enough to have lots of servants. There was no need for Lauren to do that at all.

Chris’s mother said, “This is the rule of our family. The daughter-in-law must serve the soup and you have to do so for every single meal when you live with Chris in the future. You must serve his meals to him.”

At this juncture, Chloe suddenly interjected, “Daddy’s always the one who serves our meals back at Mommy’s place!”

Chris’s mother humphed coldly and exclaimed, “Your father is a commoner. How can he compare with the Hanks? Since he’s competent, of course he has to serve the meals!”

Chloe immediately argued, “My father is very competent!”

Chris’s parents immediately frowned. Lauren didn’t want to make a scene as soon as they entered, so she quickly said, “Okay, I’ll go serve the food.”

Lauren gave Chris’s parents and Chris a bowl of soup each, and then one for Chloe. She then began to eat.

The Hanks were very picky and had strict requirements for their food, which was probably the reason for their robust figures.

“You’re not allowed to make so much noise when you’re eating!”

Chris’s mother lashed out at Chloe and began to lecture her.

Chloe, who was innocent, naïve, and enjoyed smiling. She immediately began to get scared and didn’t dare to eat, laugh, or speak loudly.

The atmosphere made Chloe feel suffocated.

“Lauren, you don’t need to do the dishes. Come to my room. I have something to say to you.”

Chris’s mother said to Lauren after finishing the meal.

Lauren followed Chris’s mother to her room, and after sitting down, Lauren asked, “What instructions do you have, Aunt?”

Chris’s mother had a serious expression on her face and she wasn’t like a benevolent mother at all. She said coldly, “I want you to give birth to two sons within three years of marrying Chris.”

“Here’s a box of folic acid tablets. Take them.”

Lauren seemed to be put in a spot and she exclaimed, “Aunt Marissa, whether Chris and I have children or not and how many we have, should be decided by us, shouldn’t it? I’m sorry I can’t accept this request of yours!”

Smack!

Seeing that Lauren had the audacity to refuse, Chris’s mother slapped Lauren on her face!

Chris’s mother was stronger than the average middle-aged woman, so the slap was particularly hard!

Chris’s mother said angrily, “Lauren Howard, don’t think that you can act however you please in our home, just because you are Martin Howard’s granddaughter!”

“You have to give birth even if you don’t want to!”
