I stared angrily at the text that Hayden just sent me.
Now they want my help ? I thought.
I thought for a moment, and started typing.Maybe you should handle him yourselves. I didn't want him anyway.
Sent 4:57 pm.
Hayden is typing..
The screen said, and a moment later I saw a reply.Come on, Adelle. He's so drunk that he's touching EVERYBODY.
Received 4:57 pm.
Are you sure he's drunk ? Cause That's exactly why I told you not to hire him.
Sent 4:57 pm.
Please, Adelle ?
Received 4:58 pm.We have guests. I have to get rid of them first, then I'll think about it.
Sent 4:58 pm.
I assumed that he saw it, but I didn't know for sure because I put the phone down after.The next moment I thought I heard something that made me angry.
"I wasn't wrong when I said you left your own husband in his illness, you know I'm not."
Sahar said coldly.My mum was clearly angry and astonished, but tried to contain her anger as she spoke.
"No. What do you know ? You were never there. Not for me nor your brother."Marwa entered the cold conversation.
"Maybe not. But I never thought your spoiled brats would ever stand up for you, I just thought you were never there for them."
Emmanuel tried to respond, but mum took a gentle grip on his shoulder, making him go silent immediately.Wafaa was desperate, and angry.
"just shut up ! There's no need of bringing that up now because I'll never believe you again ! And neither they will ! Drop the act, your kindness and everything else have fallen ! You shouldn't even talk to them like that !"She then turned to mum, and the others.
"You know what ? I'm sorry, Joanna. I'm sorry I didn't believe you, and sorry for bringing them here, I just didn't know you were so loved by great people. Will you ever forgive me ?"My mum smiled, and nodded. I rolled my eyes.
"of course we forgive you."
Allison rolled her eyes.
"mum, stop saying 'we'. I'm not ready yet, for any of this !"
Judy stared coldly at me and my sister."My mum is right. You really are some spoiled brats..and what orphanage is he from anyway ?"
I could sense Allison's anger from my seat.
"Orphanage ! Well obviously not the one we got you from !"Judy shrugged.
"I'm just saying. Adelle, you don't even deserve someone like Barron."
Melania chuckled darkly, and Judy death glared at her."I'll have to stop you there, Honey. Adelle and Barron are so in love that he might even want to marry her someday. Doing this won't make you any special. I know what you're trying to do, Judy, but it's too late."
Barron didn't seem to hear that as he kissed my cheek. I whispered in his ear.
"listen, Barron. I just can't continue this, we need to get out of here. I need to talk to you about something."
He nodded.I turned to Rajwan and whispered the same thing in his ear.
He nodded at me.
"well, looks like we're done here. I'm done here. Melania, Donald, you don't mind if I take Barron with me, do you ?"They shook their head.
"No, not at all, sweetie."
Then I turned to my parents.
"We gotta go."I said my goodbyes to the precious ones, and eyed Judy in anger.
Then I got out of the door, and I didn't realize I was crying.To be continued..
