Chapter 43
"No, don't talk nonsense."
With that, Susie left in a hurry.
Seeing this, Nora sighed, "Alas, my mom is too cowardly. She really pissed me off
Selina didn't say much. She had heard a few words from Trevon about Susie's family. Susie was an orphan. She was adopted by a family when she was six years old.
That family didn't treat Susie very well, but it was not bad either.
They gave Susie the opportunity to receive education, as well as the food and necessities she needed.
When Susse was in high school, she found out her love and talent for cooking. When she was enrolled in college, she resolutely chose to study at a cooking school in Frehar. She studied part-time, got scholarships every year, and supported herself to finish college. Then she started her internship in a restaurant in Frehar. With an extremely high talent, she became an assistant from a dogsbody in the kitchen in Just three years. It took her less than five years to be promoted to chief cook.
She also worked as a chief cook for a year in a Michelin three-star restaurant. At the age of twenty-nine, she met the divorced Samuel and resigned. After getting married, she became a housewife
Back then, Susie's marriage to Samuel had drawn a lot of criticism and the Brady family's objection. It was mainly because of her background. She was not good enough for Samuel
Besides, Susie made a lot of money and married into the Brady family because she became a famous cook
Her adopted family would come to her for money from time to time,
It was hard for an outsider to mekle in domestic affairs.
Nora held Selina's brand and begged, "Selina, you are so powerful. Can you help my mother? I really don't want to see my mother be tortured. Since I was a child, every time Uncle David came to see my mother, something bad would happen. He either committed a crime and was bailed out from the police station, or borrowed money to eat, drink, gamble...
"Nora, I know what you mean, but it's Mrs. Brady's family matter after all, and I can't interfere in it
At that moment
Selina seemed to hear the quarrel between Susie and someone at the door.
"Oh my God! Uncle David is here!"
Worried about Susic. Nora hurried over.
Selina had to follow her.
She saw that Susie was standing at the door with a man in his forties who looked like a rogue.
Susie was so angry that her face turned red. "You gambled again! You said you wanted money to buy medicine for Mom. Let me tell you! David! I won't give you any more money! Never! Even if you were killed in the street by usury lenders, it was none of my business! I will never have a brother like you!!
"Susic! I'm your younger brother! If it weren't for my parents, how could you marry into the Brady family today? It's your duty to help me. You've been with Samuel for so many years. You must have a lot of money. Give me the money! I'm waiting to win my money back! David Baxter pulled Susie so hard that he pushed Susie dowIL
Susie failed to keep her balance. She screamed and bumped her head against the door.
All of a sudden, there were bruises.
"Mom!"
Seeing this scene,
Nora was anxious. She rushed over and protected Susie behind her. "Mom, are you alright! Uncle David! You've... gone too fart
"I... I didn't mean to... She didn't give me the money. If I can't get the money, I'm sure I'll be killed by those usurerst Give me the money so that I can win back my money in the casino!" Chapter 43
David still didn't regret what he had done and even wanted to search Susie's pocket
He was sure that Susie would give him money in the end. Susie wouldn't call the police and let him, the only son of the Baxter family, go to jail!
Selina quickly stepped forward and gave a kick to David's belly. Before David could make a sound. Selina caught him nimbly and pressed him on the ground.
""Ouch, it hurts! Who the hell are your
"You don't deserve to know my name."
Selina slightly twisted his arm. "Crack
The sound of bone cracking was heard.
David's face turned livid. He screamed miserably. Then he was stepped on the face by Selina and his voice was stifled in his mouth.
"David" Selina, you...
Before Susie could finish her words, Selina interrupted. "Mrs. Brady, if you think I'm officious, I'll immediately recover his arm and never interfere in this matter again"
Susie's heart skipped a bear when she saw Selina's deep eyes
"Mom, someone like Uncle David should be taught a lesson! Don't protect him anymore! You have protected him for decades. Isn't that enough"
"If you go on like this, Uncle David will never wake up. He will only be a loser, asking you for money! You will also suffer a lot!"
Nora held Susie's hand tightly and tried to persuade her
Finally, Susie parted her lips and said. Thank you, Selina. Let him go.
Hearing this, Selina let go of David.
Then she turned his hand back.
"Crack"
It hurt so much that David screamed at the top of his lungs just now. All of a sudden, he felt no pain in his hand.
Then he quickly got up from the ground. He ran away and shouted fiercely before he could par the dust off his body.
"Susie, how dare you collude with others to bully me like this! Well! If Dad and Mom know this matter, I will see how you explain it to them! You are the wife of the fourth son of the Brady family. Yet you are unwilling to give money to me, and you even coldly watch me being killed by usury?"
With that, David ran away.
Susie slumped on the ground, weeping silently.
Nora felt sorry for Susic and wanted to give Susie strength through her own arms. "Mu... That's good. If you continue to help me like this, Uncle David will be really hopeless.
"I know. I know it all...
At that moment, Trevon and Samuel walked over quickly.
"Susie, what's wrong with your head? Who hurt you?"
Seeing that Susie was injured, Samuel squinted his sharp eyes, with a sense of extreme danger.
"Dad, it's
"Well, Nora, stop it. I'm fine."
With the help of Samuel, Susie stood up and looked at Selina gratefully, "Selina. Im sorry that you have to see all this. Thank you for helping me just now, or... I really don't know what to do." "Mr. Brady, as you said, you are Trevon's stepmother, half of his mother. To me, you are also my mother"
"Now I'm Trevor's wife. You and Mr. Brady are like my parents. I'm an orphan. My family doesn't like me, and they don't want me either.
Im glad to hear that you said you were my mother. If you need any help, just let me know."
Selina was sincere.
Trevon couldn't help fixing h
his eyes on Selina.
Under the moonlight, she looked like a goddess.
He couldn't take his eyes off her anymore..
"You are a good girl. Trevon is so lucky to marry you"
Susie covered her mouth and wiped off her tears quickly.
After comforting Susie and Nora, Samuel came to the living room.
Seling was talking to Trevon about what had happened just now. When she saw Samuel coming, she immediately stood up and asked. "Mr. Brady, is Mrs. Brady okay?"
"She's fine. She got some minor injuries and the wounds have been treated. I asked Nora to accompany her.
Tm sorry, Selina. You just came to our house and encountered such a scene. In fact, Susie is worried about you."
