Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2875

Mrs. Hughes glowered at the woman standing before her. "What the hell do you want now?"

She had already said what she wanted to, so this woman must have been out of her mind to think she would sit with them and have a meal together!

"Mrs. Hughes." Gwen smiled at her. "Steven and I have already ordered, so it wouldn't be appropriate to leave just like that, would it? And besides…"

She curled her lips into a smirk and tucked her hair behind her ear. "You claim that you'd never approve of our relationship and seem as though you care a lot about Steven's wellbeing…but you don't seem to be concerned about him at all.

"Don't you think it's a little absurd to want him to obey your commands, considering neither of you showed him any warmth or concern at all? If you truly wanted him to give up on me, surely you'd try to win him over by being good and caring parents?"

Both Mr. and Mrs. Hughes furrowed their brows upon hearing this.

Mr. Hughes paused for a moment, then reached out to tug on his wife's sleeve. "She…she's right."

They had been so preoccupied with their personal lives that they neglected Steven, which led to this woman having the opportunity to pounce on him.

If they had placed all their attention on Steven, he would not have acted out in this way at all.

"What do you mean, she's right?" Mrs. Hughes scowled at this. "Didn't you notice that she seems to be desperate to stall us?"

If this woman truly wanted to be with Steven, she would be overjoyed at their mistreatment toward him, which would push him right into her arms.

Instead, she was blocking their way and demanding that they did not care about Steven and insisted they start showing their concern towards him more.

It was clear she was trying to buy time!
