Unexpectedly Sweet Flash Marriage novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18 Adeline Revealed Her Third Brother

"Adeline, do you know that your crippled husband would have put me in a very bad situation?"

"Who does he think he is? How dare he offends Mr. Baker?"

"You are such an unlucky person! You are a walking disaster and bring no good to the family as long as you are alive!"

Adeline looked at Jacob, who was in madness with a blank face and couldn't help sneering.

Jacob was so annoyed by the sneer. He shouted, "What are you laughing at?"

"I am laughing at you. A man who is incompetent and couldn't manage his business, and blames a woman instead."

"I am laughing at you for not finding a scientific way to run and manage your business, but blaming the fault on superstition!"

"Jacob, look at you. You are an able-bodied person, but you are worse than many people in this world who are unable to walk."

"This is probably when human beings evolved, you only got your legs evolved but not your brain!"

"You..." Jacob raised his hand angrily.

Before his hand dropped, a man's cold threatening voice was heard.

"If you don't want to keep your hand anymore, make the move."

Jacob turned his head in fright and saw Steffen pushing Curtis towards him.

Curtis was sitting in a wheelchair, his posture was indifferent, but his expression was extremely cold. He looked like a beast lying dormant in the grass, ready to jump out and tear his prey apart at any time.

Jacob panicked from being stared at. He didn't dare to drop his hands on her, but it was also embarrassing for him to withdraw them hastily.

He stared at Curtis fiercely and said, "What? Are you trying to beat me? I'm your brother-in-law! According to your status in the family, you still have to call me brother-in-law!"

Then, Jacob walked a few steps toward Curtis and continued, "What makes you think that as a handicapped, you can yell at me? Let me tell you, you have offended Mr. Baker, and you have no idea what will happen to you tomorrow!"

Suddenly, Jacob smiled as if thinking of something.

"Only a useless person like you will treat Adeline as a treasure! It seems that you don't know Adeline's secret yet, right? What about me telling you?"

Adeline knew what Jacob was going to say, and her expression immediately changed.

Seeing Adeline's expression change, Jacob smiled triumphantly and looked at Curtis seriously.

"You probably don't know. The fortune teller said that the month of her birth is unlucky. People who are born in that month will take away all the wealth from their family and their husband's family!"

"Besides, she is such an unlucky person. Whoever gets close to her, will end up badly!"

"Look, when she was just born, she almost caused the Burton family to go bankrupt. Not long after she was born, my grandma passed away!"

"You just have to wait to see how she is going to ruin your family!"

"Jacob! Shut up! Are you still my family?" Adeline pushed him violently and angrily.

Other people would defend their family members' shortcomings, but her family members were always criticizing her.

He even said such things in front of her newlywed husband.

Didn't he do that to make her have a hard time in the future?

Jacob was being pushed away hard. He hit his head against the wall and raised his hand again in annoyance.

Coincidently, a familiar female voice was heard at the same time.

"Jacob, what are you doing?"

Jacob followed the voice and saw his fiancée, Heather, and his mother-in-law looking at him.

Jacob quickly put down his hands, changed his expression, and greeted them.

"Hello, Mrs. Roti."

As Jacob spoke, he looked at Heather gently and asked, "Why are you here?"

Heather frowned and looked at him, "What were you doing just now?"

Jacob sighed with an awkward look. He turned sideways, looked at the two people behind him, and explained, "Oh, it's a family scandal. My sister and my brother-in-law beat someone, and I was just lecturing her, telling her and her disabled husband not to cause any trouble to the family."
