Scrambling to Be the Father of His Ex-Wife's Kid novel Chapter 830

I scolded him exasperatedly, "I can clearly see the pain she's going through. Why would she need to complain to me? Listen to me, Tyler. If you treat her sincerity like trash again, then you deserve to be alone for the rest of your life."

As soon as I said that, Tyler’s countenance changed drastically. His dark pupils turned ice-cold, and his voice became deep and low with a hint of bloodlust. “S o you think that I'm doomed to be alone for the rest of my life?"

I was stunned for a moment and quickly recalled that what he feared most in his life was a lifetime of wandering and having nothing to fall back on.

Even if I might have touched his sore point, there were still some things that I had to say. "You’re afraid o f being lonely. Susan can make you less lonely yet you don't even care. Don't you think you deserve it?

"Susan's family is dreadful and she's not your type, but that doesn't mean that she isn't other people's type. Her family may be dreadful, but with her appearance and character, it’s not hard for her to find someone who truly loves her.

After a pause, I continued, "If it isn’t because she loves you and is afraid that you'll be alone so she wants to keep you company, I believe she'll be happier if she finds someone who truly loves her. Don't tell me she's been with you for so many years for the money. If you really think so, then you should definitely get your eyes checked."

My words had stunned Tyler.

"Tyler, you can continue to waste Susan's love for you."

I sneered. "When she’s been disappointed enough and wakes up one day only to realize that her life shouldn't be wasted away by someone like you, she'll take her child and leave. I believe that a capable woman like her can live an equally good life elsewhere, but that may not be the case with you. I can assure you that you’ll never meet someone who loves you as much as she does. You'll only meet someone like Sara who covets your money and status."

When I saw the grim look on Tyler's face, I dragged Cassey away.

That was all I could say. I just hoped that he would behave himself.

After leaving the bar, Cassey looked at me with a rare expression. "I didn’t expect you to actually say that."

I helplessly sighed. "I wouldn't have told him those things if it isn’t because I can't stand watching it anymore.”

Cassey shrugged. "Actually, even if Tyler comes back t o his senses, he still can't marry Susan. If she was born in this country, Carlson wouldn’t mind her family origin no matter how dreadful it is. But she just had to be born into such a horrible family. If Tyler marries her, not only will his career be affected but it’ll also end it."

I knew these things, of course. I felt very helpless all of a sudden. "But Susan has given the Schumans a son and loves Tyler to death. Even if he can’t marry her lawfully, he should at least be considerate of her feelings. What's up with him embracing another woman so ostentatiously all day?"

Cassey nodded. "Indeed."

When we got to the car, Cassey pulled out a box from her bag. "There's no key to this box. Petra said that Theo may have the key. You should probably get it from Theo if you want to open it."

I lamented a little when I saw this box again. "This thing is old. I've never even seen such a keyhole before."

Cassey clicked her tongue. "Me neither. It's a little special, huh? Go back and ask Theo how you should open it."

We could not figure out how to open it anyway, and seeing that it was getting late, I asked, "Are you going straight home?"

Cassey’s gaze dimmed. "I don’t want to go back."

"Arguing after getting married is really unlucky."

I looked helplessly at her. “You're married and you both love each other. If there's love between you, then there'll be no hurdles that you can't get past."

Cassey gently sighed. "I know all this, but his mother i s really annoying. She keeps thinking that Caleb is really capable for becoming a professor at such a young age and is so full of herself. She even thinks that I'm playing up to her son and often speaks to me i n a sarcastic tone. I'm annoyed as hell!"

Parents should not come between husband and wife. Too much involvement could break even the toughest relationship.

Listening to her complaints, I had no way of giving any constructive feedback, hence I could only say, "If you don't want to go home, then come over to my house and stay for a night."

She let out a smile that was even uglier than if she cried. "I might have an upset stomach at night if I have to look at Theo's ice-cold face."
