Crises in Love novel Chapter 119

Jaylan retorted, his tone definitive, "It's not suitable for you!"

"What do you mean by that, Jaylan? Why is it not suitable for me? My presence there would reflect well on you, do you think I'm doing this for myself?" Hazel's temper flared, as if she'd been stung by a hornet. "It's a symbol of status, an event like this, if the Dawson family doesn't attend, it would be a loss to our prestige. Are you saying we don't even have that kind of standing in Goldenvale Town?"

"We do! But if anyone should go, it should be me! You should be content as Mrs. Dawson, keeping house!" As soon as Jaylan said this, I almost burst out laughing.

Hazel, stung by his words, rolled her eyes so hard I thought they'd fall out. It took her a moment to regain her composure, "What do you mean by that, Jaylan?"

"Don't you get it? Do you think it's appropriate for you to attend social events like this?"

Jaylan's words were a hard blow.

"How is it not appropriate?" Hazel was instantly roused, standing up, her voice rising, "I am the legitimate Mrs. Dawson, if I'm not suitable then who is? Unless you mean Marissa..."

"Mother!" Jaylan roared, cutting Hazel off, his eyes inadvertently darting upstairs. He then stood, dragged Hazel out and pushed her through the front door before slamming it shut with a 'bang'.

Hazel, was far from ready to give up, pounding on the door in her rage. I couldn't hold it in any longer and let out a laugh. Probert immediately ran to my side, asking, "Mommy, what's so funny?"

I quickly shut off my phone, pulling Probert into a hug and planting a kiss on his cheek, "Nothing, sweetheart, just saw a funny joke!"

"What joke, can I see?" Probert was curious, his innocent face melting my heart.

I had to find a silly video on TikTok and show it to Probert. Carl also came over, and seeing his brother laughing, he joined in. My heart was completely warmed by their laughter.
