Chapter 8 Have my family discipline him.
“We didn’t use protection last night. You might already be carrying my child, Bert said, glancing at her stomach with a hint of smugness in his eyes.
“Mr. Higgins, are you not aware that there’s something called a moming–pil?
The two continued to speak in hushed tones, but the tension between them was palpable. However, the butler, who was following behind saw only affection and love.
The bar felt like he was being fed a place of same, so he quickened his pace to report to the old man.
“Master, you don’t have to worry anymore. I can see that the young master and young mistress are truly in love. They chatted the entire way here without stopping for a moment. The young master was practically glued to the young mistress’s neck!”
Old Master Higgins face flushed red, but he quickly said, “When I first saw that girl, I knew was the one who could tame that brat! See? My judgment is still sharp
“What judgment? Bert said as he stepped into the house. “Old man, take back what you sad and stop trying to run me you keep pushing me, I’m going to light back.”
The
composed and dignified Old Master Higgins grabbed his one and swung it at Bert. “You rascal! I’m your fatherr
No one red to provoke Old Master Higgins except Bart
Laura greeted him,
Dad”
“Laura, you keep a close eye on this rascal. If he doesn’t listen, feel free to discipline him!!
Bert glanced at Laura, “Grandpa, she’s my wife. She wouldn’t bear to punish me.
Laura sat quietly on a chair, listening to the banter between the old man and the young one. She knew Old Master Higgins didn’t really want her to beat Bert, and she also knew Bert wir del berately teasing Old Master Higgins.
“Stop being cheeky. Now that you’re back, go to the ancestral hall to offer incense, then head to the Listening Rain Pavilion. Your brothers and uncles are there. You haven’t seen them in a year, so go catch up!”
As soon as Did Master Higgins said this, Laura’s nerves tightened
While Bert went to the Listening Rain Pavilion, he would have to go to the Wind Watching Pavilion
The two pavilions stood facing each other, one for the men and the other for the Higgins family’s various puris and the few difficult sisters–in–law,
Bert, still ware of the situation, agreed to the old man’s words and went over with Laurs.
weren’t absolutely necessary, Laura really wouldn’t want to see these women from the Higgins Family
soon as she stepped through the door, she heard her fourth ster–in–law’s sarcasm, ““Laura’s here? We received word when the car was still at the foot of the hill. You two left together, but did even bother to take the same car? Ben must be so tired from the jet lag after coming back from overseas, Can’t you be more considerate of

him?
“Since you’re so concerned, Fourth Sister–in–Law, why don’t you be his personal driver?” Laura retorted.
“Laura, that’s not right. Fourth Sister–in–Law is just giving you some advice so you can get along better with Bert. How can you talk to your sister–in–law like that?”
Laura scoffed, here we go again!
The one who spoke just now was Wendy, Bert’s third brother’s wife. She had always disliked Lours. It was said that if it weren’t for Old Master Higgins‘ decision, Bert should have married Winnie from the Lane Family
However, Bert hadn’t returned home before, and besides, the time she and Bent had agreed to divorce hadn’t arrived yet. She had a sense of commitment and could endure those times, but now that the divorce was just two days away, she didn’t want to hold back anymore!
Does Third Sister–in–law usually rely on Fourth Sister–in–law’s guidance when getting along with Third Brother? No wonder Third Sister–in–law and Third Brother have such a good relationship…”
These words clearly strick Wendy right in the heart.
Wendy’s marriage to the Third Young Master of the Higgins Family was truly calculated. She drugged him, climbed into his bed, became pregnant, and then Third Young Master Higgins had no choice but to many Wendy. Originally, they could have lived a good life after marriage.
But Wendy ly was always trying to benefit her own family, and the Lane Family wasn’t particularly successful, always messing up collaborations. Then Wendy would argue with Third Young Master Higgins, leading to a worsening relationship between them…..
“Laura, please forgive my sister for her inappropriate words. We’re all sisters–in–law here, so please don’t rub salt in her wounds, After all, Bert hasn’t been by your side, so you don’t know how much arguing can hurt a marriage
