Chapter 212 Being Contemptible


    Chapter 212 Being Contemptible


    Everyone inside the ward was being too astonished to make ament because of Manuel. As


    taciturn as Manuel had always been, never had they expected that such astonishing words would


    actually burst out of his mouth.


    "Manuel, Susan didn''t mean to do that. Don''t you think your request is being too contemptible?" Henry


    huffed with a livid face.


    Manuel stared at him. He didn''t seem to change his mind. Then he continued frankly, "Back into the old


    days, you also took her away from me."


    "What are you talking about? Susan and I truly love each other. Your so-called rtionship with her


    only relied on your own wishful thinking!" Henry shouted.


    "No…"


    When Manuel was about to refute, Susan suddenly interrupted, "Listen, I have no feelings for you! And


    I had made it clear to you tonight! Manuel, I don''t even like you. Why are you pushing me? Stop


    making yourself disgusting!"


    Obviously, Susan was with the side of Henry. Manuel lowered his head, looking upset. In the eyes of


    others, he would probablypromise again just as usual. No matter how upset he felt, he never went


    against others'' will.


    The next second, he continued with a bitter smile, "I have lost my right leg. Don''t you think you gotta


    "Susan didn''t mean it. If it weren''t because of you quarreling with her tonight, she wouldn''t have pushed


    you away. You are partly responsible for that! How could you me it on her all alone in a way like


    that?"

    "Because I love her. I don''t want her to marry you." Manuel stressed out his words to answer.


    "No, I won''t agree." Susan stared at him coldly, her eyes filled with hate. Her sympathy and pain had


    both dissipated a second ago.


    She used to hate Manuel just because of his identity, his excellency, based on which she often got


    "I can do anything topensate for your loss even including cutting off one of my legs, but never will I


    marry you! Never!" at the edge of breakdown, Susan screamed out.


    Silent, Manuel fixed his eyes on her. He noticed the pain brought by his request was hidden within her


    eyes.


    His attitude softened a bit. He looked away and said, "You maliciously pushed me to the road with the


    knowing that there would be cars running toward me. And that caused the ident tonight, which led


    to the disability of my right leg. I am gonna call the cops."


    Susan sneered as if she heard of something ridiculous. Manuel was gonna threaten her with the cost of


    imprisonment.


    She shed angry tears while questioning, "Manuel, could you stop your dirty tricks?"


    Manuel responded with silence. So did everyone around, including Hannah.


    Staring at Manuel, Hannah used to deem him despicable back into her previous life, whom she found


    no longer kind and pure. Because of what he said at that moment, she used to stay away from him and


    disdain him together with Susan. However, at this moment, she finally realized Manuel''s reason to


    make such a ''despicable'' request.


    She truly felt sorry for this man.


    "Call the cops to arrest me." Susan didn''t seem to care, "Yeah, I pushed you and made you disabled. I


    am willing to be imprisoned for however long the sentence would be, a decade or two or even a


    lifetime. Even if there''s gonna be a death sentence. I don''t care. I would rather die than marry you!"


    Susan was actually speaking what was on her mind. She would be willing to take a price if Manuel


    wanted to revenge. However, she would never marry him.


    "Susan!" Edward suddenly uttered, "We are family. And we should have a nice talk…"


    "No! We are not! We are not family!" Susan shouted at him and continued, "We''re not family ever since


    you marry Justine! I have never lived with you like a family! In my eyes, Justine has been a mistress


    and Manuel a bastard!"


    "Enough!" Edward snarled.


    His face turned livid.


    "I am enough with you!" driven by burning anger, Susan showed no fear, "For all these years, I am


    enough living with all of you! I am enough seeing your mistress and your bastard every time I wake up!"


    Edward suddenly pped on her face out of fury. With a hand on her face, Susan was hugged into


    Henry''s arms.


    Tear welled up in her eyes, "That''s who you are, right? Start with mom, you are gonna dump me for


    both of them, right?"


    "Your mom and I divorced based on mutual consent! I dumped nobody including you! Pay respect to


    your stepmom! She has been nice to you during all these years!" Edward''s voice started trembling


    because of anger.


    "Mom kept on begging you to see her before she passed away. Why hadn''t you paid a visit? A divorce


    based on mutual consent? So ridiculous!" tears of breakdown streamed down her face, "If it weren''t


    because of you cheating on my mom, she wouldn''t have divorced you. I would rather pay respect to a


    bastard than to her!"


    Out of madness, Edward raised his hand and was about to p her once again. Susan stood still,


    showing no intention to dodge. Henry stayed between them to protect her.


    "I don''t want your respect." Justine suddenly uttered.


    Susan looked at her coldly.


    "For all these years, I have done everything with due diligence. I owe you nothing. I don''t care if you


    pay me respect. Nor will I push you." Unlike the quarrel between Susan and Edward, Justine appeared


    Susan looked at her with a satiric look.


    "What happened between us no longer matters. But now, Manuel''s request is the most important thing


    for me. Give him whatever he asks for!" Justine appeared tough at this moment.


    "Who do you think you are?" Susan mocked.


    Give him whatever he asked for?
