Master's Untamed Wife

Chapter 985: [Bonus chapter] A Slap

“Yue Lan!” Elder Yue’s voice boomed inside the house as soon as he entered. “Yue Lan!”          

    

“Father, what are you shouting for?” came Yue Lan’s voice as she yawned while descending the stairs. She was still wearing her nightgown and didn’t feel the need to dress properly before coming to see her father. “I haven’t gone deaf yet. You can stop shouting.”     𝒐𝔳𝑙xt.𝗇𝓔t

Elder Yue was driven mad from anger because of this daughter and wanted to slap her right now. He controlled himself and said, “What did you do this time?”     

“What did I do?” asked Yue Lan looking confused.     

“I’ve spent all my like building a reputation and within a few months, you managed to ruin everything? Why am I receiving calls from the party that you won’t be getting the ticket for elections? And there is also news that party leaders aren’t happy with you and might even throw you out!”     

Yue Lan was instantly awake when she heard that and looked really shocked. She suddenly recalled what Xia Zhao had said to her at the auction house but she hadn’t taken those words seriously at that time. Because in her subconscious mind, she believed no one would go that far just for Yue Yue.     

But it seemed she was wrong. That bitch was still a pain in the ass!     

“No! They can’t do this!” she shouted. “I have been working so hard and diligently. How can they just decide to take my right away?”     

“Shouldn’t you be asking yourself what you did? I have spent all my life with those people and I don’t believe they are unreasonable enough to take away your authority without a reason,” said Elder Yue. “Are you trying to ruin our Yue family’s name?”     

“Is it me?!” Yue Lan stared at her father. “It’s all because of you and her!” She pointed at Madam Yue who came out after hearing the loud voices of the father and son. She was startled when Yue Lan pointed at her. “If you both hadn’t given birth to that bitch, would I have been in this situation? Why didn’t she just die out there and had to come back to ruin my life all over again?”     

Madam Yue stepped up to comfort her as she asked gently, “Ah-Lan, what are you talking about?”     

Yue Lan pushed her away making her stagger and if she hadn’t held the couch, she’d have fallen down right there. Yue Lan gave her a disgusting look as she said, “It’s all your fault. Who asked you seduce my father? Who are you give birth to that bitch? Even after all these years, she is against me? How can she ruin my life like this every time? Wasn’t it enough when she slept with my husband and pushed my son away from me?”     

Elder Yue stepped up and really ended up slapping Yue Lan leaving her shell shocked at that moment. She had never been slapped before in her life. No one had ever done this to her. Elder Yue wanted to take his cane to beat her but Madam Yue stepped between them to stop him.     

“Master, don’t do it.”     

Elder Yue gave her a disappointed look, “Don’t do it? If you had let me beat her once in all these years, I wouldn’t be so helpless today? Who the hell are you calling a bitch here? Who are you cursing to die? Yue Yue is also my daughter! Isn’t it enough for you to throw her out of this family? What more do you want? You really want her life? What will it get you? Even after sending her away? What did you do? You’re the one who traumatized your son and pushed him away. You’re the one who managed to driven a patient person like Zhai Kuijun to his limits. It isn’t anyone’s fault but your own!”     

Yue Lan placed her hand against her cheek where she was slapped at looked at her father with hatred, “Grandmother was right. You’d always be on that bastard child’s side.”     

“She isn’t a bastard child! And she never tried to steal anything from you! It’s you who took everything from her.”     

“From the way you’re acting, it seems you already met her,” said Yue Lan. “No wonder you’ve been giving me those looks these days. So what? Did she cry to you how I wronged her and bullied her? Did you buy her act? Whose father are you? Don’t forget that only I have the right on this family. She won’t be allowed to enter this family again.”     

“She doesn’t want to either,” said Elder Yue. “You pushed her too far. Now, she doesn’t care where we stand.”     

Yue Lan snorted at that and held Madam Yue’s arm as she dragged her out the door saying, “You go. Get out. Go to your daughter and tell her to fix everything or I’ll ruin everything she loves. Also, tell her I won’t let you inside this house if she didn’t do as I said!”     

Madam Yue’s tears fell down as her body felt like it was drained of energy. She was suddenly reminded of the indifference with which Yue Yue looked at her. Those eyes clearly told her that she had no place in Yue Yue’s heart anymore. Even if she cried or begged, she didn’t think her daughter will listen. Not like she deserved it.      

She spent her whole life paying back a favor by loving Yue Lan at the expense of even abandoning her own daughter. But even after years, she was standing at the same place where she was nothing to Yue Lan. She was so easily disposable.     

“In this house, I’m still alive!” said Elder Yue. “Who are you to throw her out of this house? She is my wife. You have no right to order her around. You are the one who ruined your own life, fix it yourself. I don’t know how Yue Yue is involved in this matter but I’m very glad if she is the one who gave you this slap in the face. Take it as a reminder that the world doesn’t revolve around you. You might have ruled for all these years, but Yue Yue isn’t someone you can touch anymore.”     

With that, he held Madam Yue and took her inside leaving Yue Lan raging there as she smashed everything around her to vent her anger.
