Chapter 1153


    Mango was shocked when she saw what Nathaniel had done.


    His entire body exuded a murderous aura as if he was getting ready to massacre everyone here.


    Therefore, the atmosphere became oppressive because of him.


    Meanwhile, Victoria couldn''t withstand such an aura, so her legs couldn''t help but buckle under the


    pressure.


    "What are you doing?! Let me tell you, everyone has to follow thew nowadays! So, I can sue you


    for trespassing into private property and hurting the inhabitants on purpose!"

    Victoria was obviously scared, but she refused to admit defeat.


    On the other hand, Nathaniel sneered while saying, "Heh! I guess we''ll have to see when you can


    survive until thewsuit!"


    "Wait! What do you want? I''m Marissa''s mother.”


    Victoria mentioned Marissa yet again.


    However, Nathaniel said, "What does Marissa have to do with me?" "She saved Desmond before.


    Yes! That''s right! She is Desmond''s savior. If you want to vent your anger, just take Desmond''s life.


    It has nothing to do with us."


    Victoria was too scared that she couldn''t speak coherently as Nathaniel was pressuring her. She


    didn''t even remember why she was in a conflict with him. Right now, she only wanted Desmond to


    take the me for her.


    As long as she and Josiah were not hurt, she really didn''t care about what happened to Desmond.


    When Desmond saw this, he was wounded deeply by Victoria''s attitude.


    After all, Desmond had treated Victor like his own mother. Therefore, he did not expect that the


    latter would want him to die so badly.


    In fact, he should have guessed this earlier, shouldn''t he?


    If Marissa had not protected him with her life, he would likely not have survived until now.


    After all, he owed Marissa for this, and he could never repay her for the rest of his life.


    At this thought, Desmond''s heart sank a little. Suddenly, he felt a searing pain in his heart, but the


    pain soon dissipated, and he felt calm again.


    After all, how did a person like him deserve to feel happy?


    In fact, he had no right to chase after his own happiness!


    Since Marissa had lost her life, he had lost his happiness as well.


    In fact, he had to ept whatever Victoria did to him because he owed too much to Marissa.


    At the thought of this, Desmond closed his eyes and whispered, "Sir, Madam, I know you wish the


    best for me, but this is my family business. So, I hope you won''t interfere in this."


    As soon as he said this, Mango was dumbfounded.


    "Desmond, how could you..."


    "Madam, I know you''re disappointed with me, but I should have died a long time ago. I owe Marissa


    everything, and I have promised her that I would take good care of her parents. So, Madam...


    please let us be."


    Desmond said these words with a sense of forlorn and despair in his heart.


    His beloved was dead, and he had lost his will to live as well! Right now, he was nothing more than


    a walking corpse! In fact, if he didn''t have to repay her kindness, he would probably take his own life


    and meet Marissa in the afterlife.


    As he looked at Mango''s face that resembled Marissa''s, his eyes became less focused.


    When Mango heard this, she was enraged, but she felt a little sorry for him.


    How could he live with this kind of pain?


    In fact, how did he manage to get past each day with these thoughts?


    On the other hand, Victoria suddenly cheered up upon hearing Desmond''s words.


    "Did you hear that? Desmond himself said that he owes Marissa too much, so both of us think this


    is alright! Heh! Do you have to poke your nose into other people''s business?"


    After hearing what she said, Nathaniel''s gaze turned cold. Thus, Victoria was so scared that she


    took a few steps back.


    "Wait! What are you nning to do?"


    "Haha."


    Nathanielughed all of a sudden, but there were no traces ofughter in his eyes."


    "Desmond, you want to take care of her, right? Are you taking the me for her as well? Very well!


    You have to pay me the downpayment of this house that I have paid for you in advance today. I


    need the money before midnight. If you can''t give me that amount of money, I''lle and take over


    your house. All of you need to get lost by then!"


    "Huh? How can you do this? This house belongs to Desmond. He sold it to us so that we can live


    here."


    As soon as Victoria heard that Nathaniel was going to reim their house, she grew desperate


    instantly.


    On the other hand, Nathaniel was not smiling at all.


    Meanwhile, Mango knew that Nathaniel was trying to force Desmond to make a decision. However,


    he also wanted Victoria to know that she was nothing without Desmond. In fact, she was just a


    pathetic b*tch right now!


    After hearing her question, Nathaniel remained silent.


    Then, Desmond froze momentarily before he nodded.


    "Alright."


    "Desmond Blue, are you nuts?"


    When Victoria heard Desmond''s words, she was instantly anxious. She wanted to go forward and


    hit Desmond, but she did not dare to do so since Nathaniel and Mango were here. However, she


    was so anxious that her eyes reddened in response.


    "If you let them take away the house, where will


    Josiah and I live?" "I will rent a suitable house for the both of you." Victoria sneered abruptly at his


    words.


    "Huh? Rent a house? Do you think that the Fang family can live in a mere rental house? Josiah,


    stop your experiment ande here quickly. The people here are bullying me!"


    At this moment, Victoria yelled towards the room.


    When Josiah heard her, he walked out of the room in dissatisfaction while still wearing his while


    research coat.


    "Why are you yelling? Urgh! You''re always creating trouble. Are you too bored? Don''t you know that


    I''m in the middle of an experiment?"


    Josiah growled lowly. However, he only noticed Nathaniel and Mango after he had finished


    comining.


    Then, he cowered subconsciously in front of Nathaniel.


    "Um... Mr. Ye? What brings you here?"


    "Hah! If I didn''te here, your wife would be bullying my wife non- stop. Josiah, sometimes men


    don''t have to seed in their career, but they have to make sure that they watch over their wives.


    Look at what she has done. Did you allow Desmond to be beaten like this? Wait, perhaps did you


    order her to beat Desmond up?"


    After Josiah heard this, only then did he turn to look at Desmond.


    It was winter now, and snow was falling all over. However, Desmond was bare-chested, and he had


    scars covering his torso. In fact, he looked pathetic indeed.


    "What? Why are you beating him up again?"


    Josiah turned around and bellowed at Victoria angrily.


    "Huh? Why did I beat him? I did it because he pissed me off again!"


    Victoria said this, but she still looked a little guilty now that Josiah was staring at her.


    Meanwhile, Josiah felt as if his brain was buzzing.


    Then, he pointed at Victoria while saying, "Desmond is a grown man, and he is no longer a child.


    So, why would you beat him up? Besides, do you know that Desmond is paying for all our


    expenses? Where does this sense of superioritye from? How dare you hit him? In fact, he


    didn''t counterattack because he thinks that he owes Marissa too much, not because he is afraid of


    you. You stupid b*tch, if you continue to create trouble, you need to leave. F*ck! I''m going to divorce


    you!"


    Victoria was directly upon hearing this.


    Obviously, she did not expect Josiah to divorce her because of Desmond.


    Usually, he devoted himself to research and basically ignored the outside world. Now, he was


    actually going to divorce her just because of an experiment subject like Desmond?


    At this thought, Victoria could feel anger building up in her. In fact, she was enraged right now!


    "Huh? What did you say just now? Do you want a divorce? Did you forget who risked her life to give


    birth to your children? Who almost died for giving birth to Marissa because of massive bleeding? I


    gave up on being a woman for the rest of my life to be your wife, so how could you divorce me over


    this brat? Have you forgotten how Marissa died? She is our only daughter."


    Victoria burst into tears after she finished speaking, and everyone felt upset once they heard her


    heart-wrenching sobs.


    Suddenly, Josiah was at a loss for words as well.


    Then, he looked at Nathaniel and Mango as he said, "Mr. Ye, I''m sorry. She just hasn''t recovered


    from Marissa''s death."


    "Hmm? Is that so? But this doesn''t mean that she can hurt my wife, right? Hah! She ndered my


    wife by iming that my wife had an affair with Desmond! I can''t ept this behavior."


    Meanwhile, Nathaniel did not pick on Desmond at


    all.


    This was because Nathaniel knew that Desmond still felt guilty over Marissa''s death. After all, he


    could tell this after looking at Desmond''s attitude and words. Thetter always felt that he owed


    everything to the Fang family. In this case, it would be unnecessary for them to speak up for him.


    Although this looked a little cold- blooded, Nathaniel was always a sensible man.


    On the other hand, Josiah was instantly shocked after hearing Nathaniel''s words.


    Then, he stole a nce at Mango. However, he started panicking a bit when he saw how she


    resembled Marissa so much.


    After Marissa''s death, he had immersed himself in the experiments. However, he knew that he was


    trying to escape reality, and he also knew how he got to livefortably right now.


    In fact, he knew that Mango was the one who gave Desmond an opportunity and a job. Therefore,


    this had allowed them to live a stable and peaceful life. Unfortunately, all of this would likely end


    soon because of his dumb wife.


    "Mr. Ye, what will you do?"


    Everyone knew that Nathaniel doted on his wife very much. In fact, he had heard rumors of how


    Nathaniel had made Noah pay tens of millions of dors just because thetter had said one bad


    sentence about Mango.


    Now that Victoria was so callous as to nder Mango, Josiah knew that he had to do something


    about it.


    However, Desmond said hurriedly, "I''ll take care of this."


    Josiah threw a meaningful look at Desmond when he heard this.


    After all, Desmond was his test subject, so he was also a victim in these situations.


    If Josiah hadn''t conducted that kind of experiment, Desmond wouldn''t have be like this when


    he was still an embryo.


    If he hadn''t brought Desmond back to theb, Marissa wouldn''t have known Desmond. Perhaps


    she wouldn''t have fallen in love with Desmond either.


    In fact, Desmond had done nothing wrong from the start, and Josiah was the one at fault.


    Therefore, Desmond and Victoria were currently in a pitiful situation because of his mistake.


    At this thought, Josiah couldn''t help but feel a dull ache in his chest.


    "How will you handle it? You are a victim yourself. What else do you want to do for us? Desmond,


    you don''t owe us anything, so you don''t have to bear this."


    Victoria shrieked instantly after hearing Josiah''s words.


    "Why isn''t this his fault? How could Marissa fall in love with this freak if he didn''t seduce her?"


    "Shut up!"


    Josiah looked upset as he screamed at her.


    A freak?


    How dare she call Desmond a freak?


    Didn''t she know who had caused Desmond to be in such a state?


    Josiah felt exhausted all of a sudden when he thought about this.


    "I''ll move out with my wife, and we won''t trouble Desmond anymore. Desmond, you don''t have to


    take care of us too. I know that you took care of us because Marissa asked you to do so before she


    died, but you don''t have to take up the responsibility. We were wrong in the past, but now, you don''t


    have to feel guilty because of this."


    Desmond was shocked on the spot upon hearing Josiah''s words.


    He looked at Josiah in disbelief and realized that Josiah''s sideburns had greyed since Marissa''s


    death. Now, thetter was not as high-spirited or prideful as before. Instead, he seemed kind and


    lonely.


    "Professor, I don''t think that you''re forcing me to do so. After all, this is what I owe Marissa."


    "Marissa sacrificed herself for love. She thinks this is worth it, so we should respect her wishes.


    Now that she is gone, all of us miss the same person. We should live a good life and spend our time


    wisely so that her death will not be in vain. Your aunt has done something wrong, so I apologize to


    you on her behalf. Also, you can decide what you want to do to us as revenge for all the harm


    you''ve suffered. I won''t object to any decisions that you make."


    Mango was taken aback instantly after hearing Josiah''s words.
