Chapter 208 Announce The Truth (1/2)

When Francis woke up in the morning, it was already ten o'clock. He went to the bathroom, got washed and put on his clothes. Then he opened the door lightly with the documents and coat in his hands. Through the crack of the door, he saw no one in the living room downstairs. So he walked out of the room and went downstairs quietly. He planned to go to work as there was no one there. However, when he got down the ground floor, he was stopped by someone.

”Morning sir. Come and have breakfast.” The maid said, looking out from the kitchen.

Francis's heart did a flip.

As expected, Belinda heard the noise and walked out of the room. ”You haven't eaten breakfast yet. Why are you leaving so early?

”Mom.” ”I got a lot of work to deal with in the company. I don't have time to have breakfast. I can have some in the office.” Francis explained with a smile.

”Too much work? I haven't seen you get so busy before. You must have been avoiding me.” Belinda came over and sat on the sofa. ”Auntie Freda, bring the breakfast to Francis.”

”Our family is also in bad luck to entangle with the Fang family. Both of their daughters cuckolded you...

”I've told you, it's my fault that Ashley was drugged and raped. Why do you still keep mentioning it?” Francis bit the steamed bun and interrupted Belinda impatiently.

”Then she is not a good person. Everyone is saying that your wedding is plotted by Ashley. She has made our Xue family notorious, but you still speak for her!” Belinda put down the tea cup in displeasure.

It was Francis's self-esteem that got hurt the most. Not to mention that, he was being gossiped by others every day at work. When he was back home, he had to listen to his parents' criticism. However, Sheila refused to divorce which made him in a terrible mood. In the early morning, he was not allowed to go to work and was scolded by his own mother. He impatiently threw the chopsticks to the table.

”Mom, if you continue to say this, I won't have breakfast!”

Belinda unhappily pressed her lips together and said, ”All right, let's stop talking about Ashley. What about Sheila? It has been almost half a month and you still haven't divorced yet. When are you going to divorce? Don't you want to divorce?”
