Crises in Love novel Chapter 92

Marissa planted her feet firmly, fire flaring in her eyes as she yelled, “What the hell do you want?”

Her shout had been so loud that a child's cry echoed from inside the house. Soon after, another roar of anger sounded, “What are you trying to do? Can't I get a moment's peace?”

Then, Jaylan's figure appeared in the frame. I chuckled to myself, thinking, “he was there after all.”

The moment Jaylan stepped out, Hazel's fury ignited. Without any warning, she slapped Marissa hard on the face. “You slut, didn't you say he wasn't here? You dare to lie to me. You've overstepped your boundaries.”

Stunned by the slap, Marissa clutched her face, staring at Jaylan in shock. Upon seeing this, Jaylan's anger flared instantly. He roared, “Mom, what the hell are you doing?”

“What do you think? This bitch was stopping me and you dare to say you didn't hear? Who does she think she is, daring to get in my way?” Hazel's fiery temper from her days in the old neighborhood flared up. She stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at her son, “Are you trying to be like her? Aaliyah has never treated me like this. You've changed, even shouting at me.”

Perhaps encouraged by Jaylan's defense, Marissa pushed Jaylan aside and took a step forward, staring down Hazel and saying, “Let me tell you, your son asked me to tell you he's not here. Don't mention Aaliyah in front of me. If you think she's so great, go find her. Don't forget, the Dawson family owes its success to me. If I hadn't stepped in, Medsafe Liyah Inc. would have fallen…”

Before she could finish, Jaylan raised his hand and slapped her. “Shut up!”

Marissa's words didn't finish, her eyes wide with shock as she looked at the furious Jaylan, her eyes filling with tears.

Hazel was pleased with this and said, “She deserves it! She's getting too big for her boots, even daring to say that. You really have the nerve to say, Medsafe…”

“Mom!” Jaylan quickly cut her off. “I want both of you to shut up!”

Marissa saw Jaylan stopping Hazel again and, without a second thought, rushed forward. She no longer cared about maintaining her dignified elegance. She stretched her neck and yelled at Hazel, “Yes, Aaliyah is great, but so what? You're such a money pit, and even a gold mine would be emptied by you. All you want is money and then to show off. What else can you do?”
