Therefore, the relatives of the Mcbride family praised him even more.
But no one talked to Rose and her husband, Gaven Willis, since they entered the hall. They could only sit silently in the corner.
Rose looked at Hayden and Freya, who were surrounded by many people. She felt inexplicably depressed.
“Why don’t you go out and help others?”
Rose was angry, so she vented her anger on Gaven.
But Gaven was most disgusted by women’s irresponsible remarks, especially in front of many relatives.
He suddenly slapped Rose.
“Are you commanding me?”
This slap was hard, and all the relatives turned to look at Rose and Gaven.
“What’s the matter? Why did you quarrel?”
“Can’t you watch your actions? Today is Hayden’s first time participating in our family banquet. Don’t scare him!”
These relatives scolded and blamed Rose, but no one comforted her.
Rose felt aggrieved and ashamed. She burst into tears and yelled at them hysterically.
“We are always quiet, but you only care about money. Freya’s boyfriend is rich, and you all focused on pleasing them. We are poor, so you ignored us!”
Rose even pointed at Duncan and said,
“Uncle, before I married Gaven, you said he was a good man.
If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have married him, a loser! He doesn’t work, stays at home, and even hits me when he gets angry…”
Then, she scolded Hayden and Freya,
“You live a happy life. Why do you have to show off and embarrass me? Right, you are rich. So what? What is the big deal?”
Everyone did not expect Rose to turn the lively family banquet into a criticism meeting. For a while, they look at each other.
Those people who Rose scolded also became the focus of the discussion. Everyone glanced at
Duncan, Hayden, and Freya.
Even if Rose’s parents apologized repeatedly, they could not alleviate the embarrassment.
Finally, Hayden said,
“It shouldn’t be my turn to say these words, but you are married and still can’t understand this truth. So I think it is necessary to wake you up.”
As soon as Hayden spoke, Maeve pulled him and tried to stop him from speaking.
Rose always liked to be shrewish and make a scene for no reason.
After marrying Gaven, she would make trouble every month.
She had blamed Duncan several times because he praised Gaven as a good man.
They endured Rose’s scolding all the time. After all, they were relatives and had to contact each other.
But Hayden said,
“If you don’t make some things clear, she will always think it is your responsibility.”
Duncan probably thought Hayden’s words made sense, so he dragged Maeve to stop her persuasion.
So, Hayden said,
“You said that Freya and I deliberately showed our affection in front of you, but in fact, this is our life normalcy.”
Freya also nodded.
Hayden didn’t promise to marry her at the very beginning, and their relationship was not as good as it was now. But since Hayden knew that her bronchitis would flare up whenever she caught a cold, he would always pay attention to her if she felt cold in winter.
So today, they didn’t make public display affection.
Then, Hayden said,
“You said everyone pleased us because we are rich. Actually, I suppose you might be wrong. We noticed their relatives, so they are willing to chat with us.”
Hayden continued,
“I also admit that I am trying to please them today, but I want to become a family with them and be a member of the Mcbride family. So I paid a little more attention to them. So I think there should be nothing wrong with it!”
The relatives of the Mcbride family felt what Hayden said was reasonable, so they all nodded and looked at him with admiration.
Their discussion made Rose and Gaven lower their heads in shame.
But Hayden didn’t stop.
“In the end, you kept saying you married Gaven because of Duncan’s praises. Over the years, you have blamed your unfortunate marriage on Duncan. But don’t you think that when you asked other relatives, what did they tell you?”
“Your personality is paranoid, and you won’t easily repent of the things you believe. Even if they denied
Gaven at that time, you would think they did not hope you live well. So I believe that most of the relatives praised Gaven at that time. But after you knew Gaven’s true colors, you dared not to blame those people but only blame Duncan. In a word, you think Duncan and Maeve are honest and easy to bully.”
Rose’s head lowed her head because Hayden exposed her real thoughts.
She had an unfortunate life and wanted to find someone to take this responsibility.
Duncan was honest, generous, and kind. So she simply blamed her responsible person on Duncan.
She had mocked and scolded Duncan overtly and secretly these years. But Duncan had never taken her words seriously.
Unexpectedly, all of her thoughts were exposed by Hayden in front of so many relatives.
Rose felt guilty and sad. She began to cry.
“But if I don’t blame him, how can I survive this unlucky marriage?”
Her life was unhappy, and she was not allowed to hate others. Then, she had no purpose in life at all.
But Hayden asked,
“Do you want to hate others to improve your life? You should ask yourself. When you first married, was your life as messed up as it is now?”
Rose recalled that when she and Gaven first got married, Gaven was different from what he was this year. He wouldn’t hit her from time to time, and even say something considerate and take the initiative to help her with housework.
At that time, their lives were still sweet, even if they had little money.
When did Gaven become a loser like this?
Since she heard that Freya found a rich boyfriend, she blamed Gaven and scolded him for no money, complaining that she married the wrong person.
It was also from that time that Gaven slapped her for the first time and became decadent.
Rose suddenly realized that all the faults were on herself.
Her unceasing complaint made Gaven become irritable and lose confidence in this marriage. In the end, he turned all the grievances into violence.
Only then did Rose realize that the person she should have hated the most was herself.
She would have gotten an ordinary and happy life if she hadn’t been too greedy.
She burst into tears again but did not argue with Hayden again this time.
After Hayden finished speaking, he went on to chat with other relatives.
At the dinner later, he made a toast to Rose and Gaven,
“What I said was a little impolite, so don’t take it seriously. I just really want to be a member of the Mcbride family, and I hope you two will get better.”
Rose lowered her head guiltily and did not speak.
On the contrary, Gaven picked up his wine glass, drank happily, and even thanked Hayden.
Gaven knew what their problem was, but he was not good at expression, so he could only turn his anger into violence to stop Rose from saying more hurtful words.
But Hayden said it bluntly and helped them make it clear.
At least it could make Rose realize the problem and start to repent.
Ross made up with Gavin. The atmosphere of the banquet became even better.
After the family banquet, everyone was about to go home when they saw a luxury car on the side of the road.
The people in the village had never seen such a luxury car. They all looked at the car curiously.
Hayden stared at the car and suddenly had a bad feeling.
He recognized that it was Maura’s car.
Freya noticed that Hayden’s expression had changed all of a sudden. She immediately realized something was wrong.
“Wow, what’s the brand of the car? Look at its logo! The car looks expensive!”
“Even if the tires are covered in mud, it looks shiny.”
Maura opened the door and got out when the villagers were talking about the car.
She wore a good-looking black woolen coat with a belt tied around her waist, and her long curly hair fell around her shoulders.
She wore sunglasses. When she went to Hayden and stood in front of him, she slowly took off her sunglasses and smiled.
Not only Freya’s relatives but even the villagers watching the car on the side of the road noticed that this beautiful woman was coming for Hayden.
Therefore, everyone did not leave in a hurry but quietly gathered around to watch.
Maura stood in front of Hayden and smiled.
She asked,
“Hayden, you haven’t seen me for a few days. Don’t even recognize me as your fianc?e?”
As soon as these words came out, almost everyone was shocked, especially the relatives of the
Mcbride family.
Hayden participated in the family banquet and greeted all the relatives. Everyone accepted and recognized him as the future son-in-law of the Mcbride family.
But that woman came here and said she was Hayden’s fianc?e!
