"That simply is a form of charity given to m e! You're giving me handouts from the bottom of our hearts! Ryan, I am your wife! Not some maid that you had bought! Not some poor little girl your family had rescued out of the kindness of your hearts! I have no parents and am a little shrew who hails from the streets! However, I don't owe the Payne family anything! I didn't keep pestering you in order to marry into the Poole family! I don't need your family t o provide me with basic living necessities! I am able to provide for myself and my sons! In the future, I'll let my sons take the Mann family's name! If you and your mother want to see my sons, then you'll have to ask if I agree!"
Toward the end, Ruth was almost gritting her teeth as she spoke. The situation like that made Sabrina, Yvonne, as well as everyone present, feel how difficult and upset Ruth felt being in this marriage.
What Sabrina had been worried about back then really came true. Ruth did not have a family, and her character was a little easily anxious, and straightforward, and she never thought things through before she did something. On the surface, she was shrewish and vicious, but she actually had no bad intentions at all. Sabrina was worried that Ruth would be controlled by others at every turn after she married into that kind of big and wealthy family. It seemed like that was truly the case when she looked at it at that moment.
After all, Ruth was not Jane. Jane was not a s capable as Ruth, but Alex held great power in the Poole family. Besides, Jane has a gentle disposition, and she had been with Alex for ten years. Her temperament, character, and every other aspect of had long been influenced by Alex she had already become a part of that family. On top of that, Jane had never wanted to fight and compete for anything, and no matter how difficult her life was, she was able to endure it. However, Ruth was different. She was unable to stand it. Therefore, the fact that she was able to endure for three years was already considered a miracle.
Not only was Ryan stunned by Ruth's angry scolding, but everyone present was also stunned. After she scolded Ryan angrily, tears also instantly streamed down Ruth's face. "Yes! I am poor! I am a shrew, I am ill-mannered, and there's nothing good about me. I am not cultured and I don't have class! However, I am me! I am a human! I am my sons' mother! The Poole family is great, and you're a wealthy and noble family! 1 just won't stay with your family anymore, alright? I am able to raise my sons! No matter how shrewish and how ill-mannered I am, I also never broke any law, right? Why should I stay with the Poole family and live my life in fear and great shame? Ryan Poole! Just leave! I will not follow you back to the Poole Residence. I want to live, work, buy a house, and raise my children in South City."
"Ruth, I..." Ryan said.
At that moment, Ryan did not know what t o say. He looked toward Sabrina with a pleading gaze. His eyes were also filled with grievances. He thought that he had tolerated many things about Ruth, and until that point, he still loved Ruth and their children. If he had to pick something that he had done wrong, then at best it was just the fact that he still has not changed his lazy attitude of a pampered rich kid after he had gotten married and became a father. However, which rich kid was not like that? Ryan had already done a better job than others.
"Aunt Sabrina, look at Ruth...," Ryan said, looking at Sabrina.
"Ryan, just go home. Both of you need to first calm down. I'll come to you later, alright?" Sabrina said calmly.
