Chapter 23 - Unlucky! (1/2)
While Lisa was busy at admiring her father in law, Ruhan was sulking. There was nothing he could say to refute his father.
When he saw the smile on her face, his anger finally erupted. If his parents weren't present here, he would have already given her piece of his mind.
Mr. Ahmed noticed the changes of expressions on Ruhan's face and knew that half of his goal was already achieved. He just needed to give a little push.
”Do you really feel that this arrangement is unfair?”, he asked Ruhan.
”Of course it is unfair”, Ruhan declared, ”she has done nothing for this family. She also hasn't contributed to these properties. If I don't deserve these properties, so doesn't she. We should just return them to mom”.
Ruhan was not stupid. If these properties go to Lisa, he would have no hope to recover them. But his mother was different. He knew how much she doted on him. She would transfer these properties back to him today or tomorrow.
Lisa gritted her teeth. She didn't like the way Ruhan talked about her. She is a qualified businesswoman ok? She was maintaining LiCorp and prevented it from being bankrupt pretty well until Ruhan deliberately targeted her. Why did he make her seem like she was a gold digger?
Lisa immediately retorted, ” I don't want your property anyway. My parents taught me to work hard and earn my own money. I don't feel comfortable using money that was not earned by me and leeching of others.”
However, after sprouting nonsense, she immediately regretted. How could she forget that she was not in her home now. This was Ruhan's territory. All of them are his relatives. No matter who was wrong, they would always support him.
Moreover, she was a newly wed daughter in law. No one would support a newlywed wife insulting her husband like that.
Lisa could not help but cry without tears, 'There goes my image of a perfect, well-behaved daughter in law!'
She snuck a peek at her mother in law and grandmother. Mrs. Ahmed seemed to be displeased. But grandmother was indifferent. As expected from lady Hitler. No one can guess her mind.
How could she be this unlucky?!!
Ruhan didn't understand what was going on in Lisa's mind. ”You...” he was so angry that he became tongue tied. He was using his father's money. How dare this damn girl compare him to a leech?
He looked at his father, hoping that he would retort. Afterall he was his firstborn son. He would not support an outsider (Lisa) over him..right?
But it was his wishful thinking. Mr. Ahmed didn't seem to be displeased with Lisa's remark. Rather, he seemed to support her.
”A man should earn his own money. You are a married man now. You can not depend on other”, Mr. Ahmed ruthlessly declared that he would not give Ruhan anymore pocket money.
