Chapter 209 This Isn''t Your Home


    "Why have youe back? This isn''t your home anymore. Can''t you see that you''re not wee


    here?" asked Yvonne. She couldn''t control her anger towards Aron at the thought of how he had


    helped Autumn with setting her up.


    Simon pped Yvonne across her face. The sound of the p echoed throughout the living room.


    Yvonne looked at Simon with surprise. ''He has even never raised his voice to me, ever since I was a


    child, but now he has raised his hand against me for Aron''s sake.'' She couldn''t ept this.


    "You hit me?" Yvonne said, as she covered her face with one hand.


    Simon instantly regretted pping Yvonne. He didn''t p Yvonne because he disliked her. On the


    contrary, he was proud to have a daughter like her, and always doted on her. However, Yvonne had


    gone too far this time. He simply lost his temper...


    Simon felt deep regret after pping her. ''Yvonne shouldn''t have spoken to her brother Aron in that


    manner. After all, he is my son as well as my only sessor.''


    "What are you doing? Why did you raise your hand to her instead of reasoning with her?" Wendy came


    in, seeking to use this opportunity to stop Aron froming back. "Yvonne shouldn''t have treated Aron


    in such a rude manner. Nevertheless, you shouldn''t have pped her because of that. You have never


    raised your voice to her before, but now you''ve pped her because of your your son. Now that we''re


    unwee in this house, we shall leave at once."


    "Why?" Yvonne asked, her eyes filled with tears. She was heart-broken. She had never imagined that


    Simon would hit her. "Father, why should we be the ones to leave this house? Mom has served you,


    both loyally and wholeheartedly; She does not deserve this. What about him? What did he ever do for


    you? He is the one who should leave, not us, " Yvonne continued, pointing her finger towards Aron.


    Aron stood still, watching Wendy and Yvonne silently.


    "Yvonne, don''t you see? We''re no longer wee in this house. Your dad expects his son to take care


    of him when he gets old, and to take over the family business, " said Wendy, resting her hands on


    Yvonne''s shoulders.


    Yvonne finally understood why Simon had insisted on asking Aron toe home. ''He is an old-


    fashioned man who thinks that only his son is qualified to inherit his business.''


    "Dad, do you really think so?" Yvonne asked, staring at Simon. "Mom and I have done so much for the


    Gu Group. Without our sacrifices, the Gu Group wouldn''t be as sessful as it is today. Now you are


    just going to hand thispany over to Aron because he is your son?" Yvonne said aggressively,


    pointing at Aron.


    "All these years, he had never tried to contact you, not even once, and now you intend to let him take


    over thepany. Do you think that''s fair to me?" Yvonne raised her voice.


    "Yvonne, you''ve misunderstood me, " Simon tried to exin. Simon med himself for hitting Yvonne.


    He felt even more sorry for Yvonne, when he heard her cry foul. "Your mother and I have been


    managing the Gu Group for a long time, but... it was Aron''s mother who provided the initial funding for


    thepany. Besides, she supported thepany when it was just founded. I have already wronged


    histe mother, I can''t do the same to Aron...


    But I promise you that I will get you and your mom well settled after I leave thepany to Aron." he


    went on, as he had noticed the rage on Yvonne''s face.


    When Wendy realized that Yvonne''s words had failed to change Simon''s mind, she pretended to be


    aggrieved to win Simon''s sympathy. "Simon, are you really going to treat us like this?" Wendy turned to


    Simon, with her eyes filled to the brim with tears. "Simon, I know that I am a shameless woman. I admit


    that I seduced you and stole you away from Aron''s mother, which eventually led to her death. It was all


    my fault. So, is this how you intend to punish me?"


    "Wendy, it''s not like what you think..." Simon was caught in a dilemma. On the one hand, he felt sorry


    for Aron and thought that he should be the one to inherit thepany. On the other, he could not


    simply cast aside Wendy''s notable efforts for the betterment of thepany...


    "Then what do you mean?" Wendy asked, smiling bitterly. "It''s true that Aron''s mother provided the


    initial capital for thepany. But have you forgotten the years of my irrefutable devotion to help with


    thepany business? I''ve even worked overtime to ensure the benefit of thepany''s reputation.


    To save the Gu Group from bankruptcy, I sacrificed my own daughter''s happiness and married her off


    to a man she didn''t love. Is this how you intend to pay me back?"


    "No, I..." Simon stammered, as his forehead wrinkled into a frown. He was at a loss for words.

    "Enough! After all these years we''ve been together, I think I know you too well now. You''re just trying to


    coax me into seeing your way, " Wendy interrupted. "Now your son hase home, so you don''t need


    us anymore. We will leave and we won''t stop you from reuniting with your son and living a happy life."


    "Wendy, Yvonne, are you done?" Aron asked impatiently. "Is this why you''ve asked me toe home?


    Just so I can see how you quarrel over apany, " he turned to Simon.


    "You should give up on it if you think it''s too troublesome, " Yvonne sneered and continued, "No one


    forced you toe home."


    "I had already made up my mind beforeing here. I am willing to leave thispany to you, but..."


    "You must give back the money that my mother invested in thepany, with interest. Once you pay


    me off, I will disown the Gu family and renounce my right to im ownership of thepany. Do you


    ept my offer?" he continued after a pause.


    "Done!" Yvonne replied with a satisfied smile on her face. Yvonne no longer desired a man''s


    agreement renouncing all of your ims to the Gu Group."


    "Of course! As long as I get the money back, I will sign on the agreement, " Aron responded with a cold


    smile. "We''re a family. You don''t need to sign any agreements. You''re her older brother and he is just a


    little girl. You shouldn''t take her words too seriously, " Simon persuaded, looking unhappy.


    "Little girl? She almost became a mother. She isn''t an innocent little girl anymore." Aron''s words were


    like a kick in the gut. Neither Yvonne nor Wendy expected this. In all his confusion, Simon didn''t know


    what to make of what Aron had just said.
