Bride To Be Not Me (Janice and Simon)

Elsie sneered, "With the way you scheme, a mother-in-law like you will ensure your son never finds a good wife in this lifetime."

Helena completely lost it. "How dare you curse my family like that?"

The room was filled with their heated argument. Simon's head throbbed as he clenched the small vial in his pocket so tightly that his arm began to tremble.

Helena lunged at Elsie, attempting to hit her. Instead, Elsie shoved her aside with force. Helena crashed into the edge of the table and collapsed on the floor, wailing in pain.noveldrama

"You think you can bully people just because you're old—"

"Enough!" Simon roared.

The three women instantly fell silent.

For the first time, a deep and unmistakable sense of regret rose within Simon. He truly regretted it.

If Janice were here, this place would never have turned into such a mess. She would have tolerated his mother, taken care of household affairs, and kept his life in order. The more he thought about it, the more every good quality of Janice seemed to multiply in his mind.

He pointed at the door and said to Elsie, "Get out."

Elsie stared at him in disbelief.

Helena smirked as she stood up. "Did you hear that? My son is telling you to get lost!"

"Get lost?" Elsie let out a furious

laugh. "Fine want to see who else would even want you besides me. You're an infertile man who might also have AIDS. Simon, you're the most ungrateful, backstabbing person I have ever met. You never remember the kindness of others. Being unable to have children is too light a punishment for you."

Simon snapped. He took two steps forward, faised his hand, and delivered a resounding slap that

echoed through the room. Elsie

stumbled to the ground, her ears

ringing from the impact.

As she lifted her head, her gaze fell on a small glass vial that had rolled onto the floor in front of her.

Simon quickly snatched it up and shoved it back into his pocket, his breathing heavy with rage. "Get out of my sight! From now on, we have nothing to do with each other. don't need the company. Even without you, I can still make a comeback."

Elsie's eyes burned with hatred. When had she ever been treated like this in her entire life? Simon had some nerve.

"Simon, you'd better remember this." Elsie got to her feet, her face twisting with fury as she stormed out. She slammed the door behind her.

Helena, however, was panicked. "Simon, what did that wretched woman just say?"

Infertile? Possibly infected with AIDS? What did she mean? Her son was so outstanding. How could he possibly have such diseases?

Simon was overwhelmed with frustration. "Enough!"

The test results had not come back yet. He still did not know if he had been infected. But infertility...

His exhaustion seeped through every word. "Pack up your things. Go back to our hometown for now."

The money in his account was currently untouchable.
