Chapter 606 - Six Hundred And Six: What Happens When Her Love For Him Vanishes (1/2)

Note* not edited

The third point of view:

As the legitimate heir and first-born son, Pedro controlled all of Fernandez's wealth as expected - and a certain person was not happy with that.

”What did you do with the gift I sent to him?” there was slight anger in his tone.

Isabella understood at that moment that Pedro must have put a lot of care into the gift and yet, the woman tossed it away like shit. If it was her, she would have buried this witch long ago but Pedro wouldn't.

Kind, peaceful Pedro.. Thankfully, she was here to get rid of the pest for him. What he couldn't do, she would help him with it - he doesn't have to worry.

”Jodah doesn't need an Xbox. What he needs to do is to study,” she added immediately, ”Or do you plan for him to game all the way while you alone grow by leaps and bounds, is that it? You want him to forever be beneath you?” she sneered.

Pedro didn't say a word, rather stared at the woman dumbfounded. Before anyone else could say a word, Isabella stepped in,

”I believe that doesn't answer the question he asked,”

”Isabella,” Pedro cautioned her to stay put.

However, Rita didn't let go. She scoffed in disbelief, ”Even the daughter-in-law is disrespectful to me?”

”Excuse me, am I supposed to know you?” Isabella insulted her, adding more fuel to the burning flame.

”Y-you!” Rita choked, going red in the face. She couldn't even believe what was going on.

She cried out, ”Of course, what was I expecting? You disrespect me, why shouldn't your bride do the same?” Rita painted herself as the victim in this situation.

”That's your problem,” Isabella didn't give up on her attack, ”You expected too much. And don't even attempt to fake being the aggrieved one here. I'm sure everyone here has seen better actresses in melodramas,”

Rita's jaw almost dropped to the ground since she had not expected that. She turned to her mother in law for support with fierce determination to put Isabella in her place,

”Mother, how can you stay sit and watch -”

”That's enough!” Lucinda bellowed, finally speaking up since the drama began.

”Are you a child?” she scolded Rita, ”My granddaughter-in-law just arrived and you're already starting troubles with her?”
