Ex husband's Plea for Forgiveness

Chapter 126 A Secret

Nelson always had a bad temper, but in all these years, not once had he been cruel to Queena. She had never seen him like this before.

Queena broke into a cold sweat and her heart raced frantically.

"I didn't mean that… We were mere guests and that's how people would behave if they saw us denigrating the hostess."

Queena's mind was foggy. She saw Nelson shaking his head in disapproval.

She realized that her reason was lame and it would never convince anyone.

Although it seemed reasonable in her head, when the words spilled out of her mouth, Queena realized that she had done a grave mistake.

Her experience was nothing compared to what Nelson had gone through.

"What do you mean by denigrating the hostess? Melinda did nothing!"

Nelson scoffed. He was in fact, proud of Melinda's actions. He had always been concerned that she endured all the torture and bullying.

Nelson was glad to see that she had changed and finally stood up for herself. The way Queena blamed Melinda for safeguarding herself irked Nelson.

"Don't be stupid enough to believe that Emily is good. She is evil. Only a few people in the entertainment circle are innocent and she's definitely not one of them."

The soldiers of the old generations despised actresses. They appreciated talent but were intolerant to calculative people like Emily, who would go to any extent to have what they wanted.

"Dad, Emily is a sweet girl."

Queena wasn't ready to give up. She defended Emily because she was incredibly grateful for her timely favors. Queena felt that Emily always wished the best for her.

She had fallen for Emily's flattery and failed to see the truth behind the facade.

"Cut the crap! I don't care if Emily is sweet or not. All I care about is the happiness of my granddaughter-in-law, Mellie. I cannot see you treat her like this."

Nelson was seething with rage. He wanted to smack Queena with his walking stick but she was his daughter-in-law, so he suppressed his anger.

Queena shuddered. The intensity of Nelson's anger frightened her. The warm yellow light cast long shadows, making him look scarier. She didn't know how to make things right. She wiped the sweat that trickled down her forehead and looked at him helplessly.

"The Gu family doesn't encourage hypocrites. If you want to be a part of this family, better follow the rules. I won't always be patient enough to forgive you. I may be old but I still make the decisions in this family."

Queena's heart broke as every word was like a tight slap on her face. She knew that if she annoyed him again, she wouldn't have the chance to explain herself.

She understood that his opinion of Emily could never be changed.
