Honorable Hubby Behind Me novel Chapter 15

Lydia's greatest wish was to find an opportunity to kick Samuel out of their home. As a result, she was thoroughly incensed that Yvonne would speak on Samuel’s behalf and accept their marriage.

"I'm warning you, Yvonne. Don't end up having feelings for him. You won’t have a good future if you follow such useless men. I’ve experienced it, so this is my lesson to you," Lydia said angrily. 1

During those three years of staying with Samuel, Yvonne's feelings have been developing imperceptibly. She would never divorce Samuel even i f the collaboration with Weakriver Real Estate never existed, so why would she do that when Samuel was the one who helped and facilitated the collaboration? 2

The reason for Lydia's harsh attitude toward Samuel was entirely because she believed that Samuel showed little promise. If Yvonne could just tell her about what happened with Weakriver Real Estate, she believed that Lydia's attitude toward Samuel would definitely change.

Nevertheless...

Yvonne let out a sigh. 'Why won’t you let me tell them about it?'

"I'm not lashing out at you. I just don't want you to follow in my footsteps." Lydia noticed that her attitude

was a bit too aggressive, so she toned it down a little bit.

"Mom, give him one year and he definitely will not disappoint you." Yvonne knew that Samuel was changing for her sake. Although she did not know what exactly those changes were, she believed that Samuel would one day make those who looked down o n him admire him. 1

"Hmph," Lydia snorted coldly and said, "He's a spineless good-for-nothing, just like your dad. What's going to happen if you give him ten years? Look at your dad. Does he look promising now?" 1

"Mom, even though Dad hasn't accomplished much all these years, doesn't he treat you well? He never went looking for mistresses, did he? Look at Uncle and the others. Which one of them doesn’t have a woman outside of the home? Happiness isn't measured by money," Yvonne answered. 2

Although Lydia was angry, she knew that Yvonne was telling the truth. While Godfrey was poor and did not show any prospects, he did not go out and frolic around willy nilly. He was very good compared to other men.

"Okay, I’ll give him a year to see how promising he can become. But I'm warning you, you can’t let him touch you," Lydia said. 1

Yvonne nodded. Although she faced her feelings for Samuel head-on, she was not ready for that yet. 1

When Lydia walked out from Yvonne's room into the living room, the only people she saw were Godfrey and Samuel.

"Where's Harvey and his dad? Didn't they want to beg us? Why did they leave?" Lydia asked.

Godfrey glanced at Samuel with a trace of jealousy in his eyes.
