Chapter 332 The Poor Aren''t Entitled to Love


    As the flirting continued unabated, Avery''s anger simmered. Her stunning eyes widened, the fury


    boiling over.


    "Enough!" Avery erupted, bringing immediate silence.


    "Mom, are you mad?" Daniel asked in his irreverent tone.


    "I am not your mother, and don''t you dare call me that!"


    "You''re not my mom? That''s odd. Avery, are you suggesting Jessica isn''t your biological daughter,


    but someone you picked up from a trash heap?"


    "You''re the one who''s been picked up from a trash heap!" Jessica snapped, kicking Daniel lightly


    under the table with her heel.


    "Ow! Mom, you better control your girl; she''s kicking me."


    Daniel shamelessly provoked Avery, only to earn her wrath in return.


    "Country bumpkin, shut your mouth! If you call me ''mom'' one more time, I swear I''ll tear your mouth


    to shreds!"


    After calming herself down, Avery spoke with grave seriousness.


    "Country boy, you have two choices. The first - take this one million, leave my daughter, leave New


    York, and never show your face in this city again, nor contact my daughter!"


    "Trying to buy my love with a million dors?" Daniel shook his head, firmly refusing. "I won''t do it!"


    "Love?" Avery scoffed with a coldugh. "A country bumpkin earning two to three thousand a month


    thinks he''s entitled to love? Do you really think you''re worthy?"


    "So the poor aren''t entitled to have love?" Daniel questioned her.


    "Unworthy!" Avery replied without hesitation.


    "Unworthy? That would be you, Avery! You''re unworthy of a poor man''s love. Only your daughter


    deserves it!"


    Jessica couldn''t help but giggle at Daniel''s retort. Who would have thought this idiot could leave her


    own mother speechless?

    "Country boy, enough with your nonsense here! Stop trying to charm me with words! Next week,


    Jessica has to return to New York for her grandfather''s eightieth birthday celebration."


    Before Avery could finish, Daniel eagerly butted in, looking expectantly at Jessica. "There’s going to


    be a banquet for your grandfather’s big birthday, right? Are you taking me with you?"


    "Of course!"


    Jessica was definitive in her reply, though she well knew that at her grandfather''s birthday, her


    mother would undoubtedly arrange her marriage, trying to marry her off to some guy named Smart


    from the Evans family whom she had never even met. She was determined to make her own


    choices about her marriage.


    "What did you say? If you dare to bring that country nobody to the doorsteps of the Matthews family,


    I’ll break his legs myself! He’s nothing but an embarrassment!" Averyshed out, then continued


    from where she left off.


    "At your grandfather''s birthday, the Matthews family has already made its decision. He will sanction


    your marriage to Smart from the Evans family right there and then!"


    "What now? Hold on, Mom, that’s totally not okay! Jessica and I are legally married spouses. Are


    you actually nning to marry her off to someone named Smart during granddad’s birthday? She’s


    your daughter! Are you really going to marry her off to an idiot? What are you thinking?"
