Chapter 15


    Chapter 15


    Before Moira returned from the hospital, Alken had told the maids and butlers no Guzman could


    come in without Moira’s permission.


    Alfie used to be allowed toe and go freely, but today, he


    stopped at the gate. It was cloudy today and had started to rain now,


    Alfie stood at the gate and listened to the butler. His face darkened.


    The rain started pretty light but gradually got heavier. Alfie nced inside the vi before finally


    returning to the car.


    His cell phone had been blown up. The inte was abuzz about hins buying a ring for ire, and


    the fact that Moira and Bary got a marriage license was even more known throughout the city.


    Alfie nced at the dozen missed calls with no intention of dialing them for now.


    He found and dialed Moira’s number. Then, he heard the customer service message. “Sorry, the


    number you dialed cannot be connected now,”


    Alle realized Moira had cked him out. He looked down at his phone for a long moment before


    reluctantly driving away.


    The atmosphere was tense in the Guzman family. Barbara Guzman was shrinking on the sofa,


    ying with her cell phone, and didn’t dare to make a sound.


    A teacup was thrown directly at his feet as soon as Alfie entered.


    Alfie pursed his lips and nced at Lara and Jeffrey “Dad, Mam.”


    “Happy, now?” Jeffrey, with a solemn face, violently mmed the table and asked with his voice


    raised.


    The marriage between the Guzman family and the Jimenez family was set a long time ago.


    Although the Jimenez family had waned in the past few years, Moira’s maternal rtives were doing


    well and could be a helpful connection.


    And Jeffrey’s friendship with Alken for more than forty years was ruined. If Jeffrey had another son,


    he would have kicked Alfie out of the Guzman family long ago!


    Lara was also painfully upset, and tears fell as soon as she spoke. “I don’t know what’s got into your


    head! No decent man would marry a girl like ire. You did such a terrible thing to Moira for her. I


    hope you’re satisfied.”


    Barbara snorted. “Men like their women to be weak and docile. Alfie is no exception!”


    Barbara satirized Alfie and Jeffrey at the same time because Jeffrey cheated on Lara years ago with


    a girl of exactly that type.


    Lara was instantly irritated, and she stopped wiping her tears, walked over to Alfie, and pinched him


    hard on the arm. “You, go to Moira, Kneel for her and apologize to her! We don’t care if she has


    married. We will still give her a grand wedding if she’s willing to divorce!”


    Barbara added fuel to the mes. “It’s Moira you should worry about. She may not be willing to do


    so.”


    “Shut up, Barbara.” Jeffrey red at Barbara. Barbara pursed her lips and left.


    il she was fi


    Alfie let Lara vent her anger until and apologize.”


    was finally calm. “I will apologize to Moira. Dad, will you make an appointment with Aiken and


    Moira? I will kneel


    He was wrong. He should apologize to Moira. But he was more and more panicked. He was not


    sure how Moira would react. Or maybe, just like Barbara said, she was not willing to take him back.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
