Chapter 188


    188 Killjoy


    Valen wanted to kick against it but kept it in for now. If he agrees to what Jeslyn wants, doesn’t that


    mean that Vera would be taking Jeslyn’s ce? No! That can’t happen. He won’t allow that to happen!


    He’s definitely going to throw that woman out when he’s out of here! 1


    Rex sighed, “If only those you are fighting for are so nice to you. Heya… this life is filled with narrow-


    minded people. No wonder, there are so many narrow-minded people dominating the charts in the


    morgue.”


    “Uncle Rex is narrow-minded. That makes your remaining days on earth short.” Valen said with a


    straight face. 1


    Jeslyn chuckled. “Well deserved.”


    “How can you say that of your uncle? I’m one of the smartest people in the world!” Rex boasted.


    “You should have been where dad is if you were.” Valen scoffed.


    “Hey, boy, I’m smarter than your dad-” he mped his mouth shut when Maverick gave him a look.


    “See… weakling” Valen gave him a disdainful look before opening his mouth to ept the spoonful of


    porridge Jeslyn was feeding him. 1


    “Hahaha…” Jeslynughed boisterously.


    “Sister-inw, you are being biased. You caution the child when he’s disrespectful, only when he’s not


    fighting for you. That’s two-faced and hypocritical. Hmph!”


    Jeslyn answered; “Serves you right for looking down on my-”


    “That’s right. Jeslyn, that’s not how to bring up a child.”


    Jeslyn’s words were cut short by Vera who was behind the door. The door pushed open and Vera


    walked in with a frown. “Valen is too young to be disrespectful to his uncle.”


    Jeslyn and Valen blinked in confusion. Silence dominated the room, throwing the ward into


    awkwardness.


    Nobody understood how Vera suddenly butted in when it was obvious they were just having fun.


    “You are very gifted with the ability to ruin a good mood!” Valen almost yelled. He was having a good


    time with the jokes and happiness around him. Where did this joy killer pop out from?


    Rex nodded; “I agree with you nephew. She’s a killjoy.” He gave Vera a disdainful look. “Why do you


    feel the need to ruin the mood? What does Valen’s upbringing have to do with you?”


    “He’s my child and it wouldn’t be good for him to grow up thinking it’s ok to disrespect everyone.”


    “And you feel you are good enough to teach him manners?” Jeslyn finally spoke up. “You need to know


    what manners are before you teach others that.”


    “How don’t I have manners? I’ve never disrespect you or anyone in this household even though it’s


    clear that you don’t like me and-”


    “What do you call sleeping with someone’s husband when they are at their weakest point?! How about


    lying to the man’s wife just to ruin their happy marriage? You tell me you have manners? You tell me


    you haven’t disrespected me? Living under this roof with a married couple and trying to tear them apart


    is disrespectful!! No one taught you that?! Huh?!”


    Silence took over after Jeslyn’s outburst.


    Maverick raised his head to look at his beautiful wife. He didn’t know this feeling of having your wife


    defend you was this sweet. He’ll need to experience much of it in the future.


    Although Valen doesn’t know what was going on, he was sure of one thing… Cheating happened! He


    red at his father. Even though he was sure his father wouldn’t stoop so low without a reason, he still


    felt disgusted.


    “p, p, p!… Bravo! Vera, go on, tell us you were possessed.” Rex broke the silence. He loves


    this show.


    All eyes were on Vera now. She swallowed. Her brain went into serious calction. She could lie to


    Jeslyn about things she wouldn’t dare to say in front of Maverick because she thought Jeslyn wouldn’t


    tell Maverick about It.


    “I-I didn’t seduce him. He came into my room and he…”


    “Enough with that story!” Jeslyn yelled. “If it was as you im it to be, you wouldn’t have lied to me that


    my husband professed his undying love to you. You wouldn’t have sent me pictures or forced me to


    see a video of him lying on your bed nak-” she stopped herself when she remembered Valen was still


    there.


    “… You wouldn’t have lied to me that it happened more than once that got you pregnant. You should


    havee clean to me. Vera…” Jeslyn walked forward and stood in front of Vera. Her body was


    radiating pent-up rage. “If I find out everything was orchestrated by you, I’ll make you suffer.” She said


    slowly in a deadly tone.


    “Was that why you almost killed my baby today? Is it because you are this angry? This child I’m


    carrying is Valen’s sibling and he holds Valen’s life and death…” Vera felt this was the right time to


    ‘reveal’ Jesiyn’s true face to everyone. She didn’t believe that a soft bunny like Jeslyn would be able to


    make her suffer after Maverick learns that Jeslyn almost killed her unborn baby.


    Rex rolled his eyes and Valen frowned and lowered his head to the food in front of him. Since Jeslyn


    was fighting, let him feed himself. The food is too delicious to be eaten cold. 2


    “Did you want to kill it so Valen would die too? Wouldn’t that make your future children the only children


    to be called Maverick’s children?” She said that while looking at Valen, however, Valen was busy eating


    on his own.

    “Hehe… your heart is so dirty that you could only think this evil of others. Now that I think about it,


    falling in the kitchen today was definitely your doing just so you could me me for your miscarriage.


    You want me out of Valen and Maverick’s lives just so you coulde back in. You could go to


    any length to achieve that, which includes killing your own child. Vera, you should be feared. You give


    me chills!”


    Vera gasped in amazement. “That’s not true! You made me fall. You poured oil on the floor!”
