After Haniya came back from outside, she curled up on the sofa in the living room.
After so many years, in fact, she and Desmond had made some money and could change to another big house, but Desmond always felt that a bigger house would be too lonely. He liked to live in a house of about 90 square meters. Only in this way could he feel the feeling of home.
But in the past two years, Haniya felt that this house had become too big.
Because she was the only one living here in the whole family, Desmond basically stayed in his research center or hospital, and Anton rarely came back for a few days. Even if he came back, he would only discuss something with Desmond in the study.
She always felt puzzled. Others said sons would be close to their mothers, but why was her son so distant from her?
If it weren't for the fact that Anton and Desmond shared the same blood, Haniya would even suspect that her son wasn't hers.
She remembered that in the past half of her life, her closest husband and son seemed to have opinions about her. Not long ago, Desmond had rebutted her in front of Mango, which made it even more unacceptable for her.
They are husband and wife.
Couldn't he just say those things to her at home?
Why did he have to be so rude to her in front of outsiders?
Desmond knew that she was too ashamed to apologize to Mango, but why didn't he apologize to her for her?
Didn't he say that he loved her the most?
It had been more than half of her life. Why did he ask her what she should do if he left?
They were all excuses!
Desmond simply disliked her, so he said that.
The more Haniya thought about it, the angrier she became. She couldn't help sweeping everything onto the ground, making a lot of cracking sounds. Anton just happened to open the door and come in.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Anton's eyes darkened a lot.
He stood at the door and looked at Haniya coldly. His cold eyes made it hard for Haniya to bear.
"Why are you looking like that at me? I'm your mother! Do you want to be cold and violent to me like your father too? What have I done wrong to you and your father to let you two join hands to exclude me?"
Haniya was already full of anger. At this time, when she saw her son's eyes, which were very similar to Desmond's, looking at her coldly, she was even angrier.
She was a failure!
Her husband and son were not close to her. What was the point of her being alive?
Anton knew that she was venting her anger.
If it was in the past, he would not talk back to Haniya. He would just let her vent her anger. But today, he couldn't bear it.
"We excluded you? Do you know how many things my father has done for you? When you schemed and pushed Rita to the forefront of the storm, did you ever think about why the Ye family didn't come to find you trouble? Those days, you couldn't sleep at night and you also think that the Ye family would find you trouble so you were uneasy. But after some days, the Ye family didn't make any moves. You gradually felt relieved and then accepted the reward from the above. Have you ever thought who cleaned up all the mess for you?"
