Chapter 671: Chapter 670
Jake Horton and lissa Knight were both stunned.
They had long known that Oliver Horton favored that woman outside, and even more so her daughter, but they never expected that in front of the boy, he would still choose Selena Horton.
When Selena Horton heard this, she smiled slightly, yet she still pressed her lips together and advised, “Dad, don’t speak out of anger. Jake is the one who can carry on your lineage. Jake, please just apologize! Dad is just trying to scare you!”
Jake Horton looked coldly at Selena Horton, tightened his jaw, and scoffed, “A father like this, I’d rather not have!”
Selena Horton imdiately exclaid, “How can you speak like that? Dad has high hopes for you, it’s for your own good… You are truly breaking Dad’s heart!”
“He has high hopes for ? All I’ve ever heard from him is criticism; in his eyes, I’m just useless! A worthless person!”
Jake Horton bitterly laughed, “If that’s the case, why does he still want ?”
lissa Knight also started to cry, “Yes, in your heart, this illegitimate daughter is a thousand tis, ten thousand tis better than us, but we are mother and son, your family too! I am your wife! My family is influential too, I have compromised so much for you over the years, Oliver Horton, you are heartless!”
Selena Horton imdiately responded, “Aunt, don’t talk about Dad that way. Dad and my mom truly love each other, it’s you who wedged into their relationship and forced Dad to marry you…”
“Shut up!” lissa Knight shouted angrily, “If he didn’t care for , would I be holding on to hope?! Oliver Horton, let ask you, was it not you who ca to my family to arrange the betrothal? Was it not you who begged to marry ? You just wanted to compete with Lewis Horton! Because my family could provide more support! As for that mistress, she’s nothing!”
“Now that my family has fallen, we can’t compare with the Horton family, you want to kick us aside, right? Let tell you, that’s impossible! Even if I die in the Horton house, I won’t make room for that wild woman!”
Selena Horton frowned, “Aunt, how can you speak about Dad like that? Dad has his reasons!”
Then, looking at an exasperated Oliver Horton, “Dad, mom has never blad you, she has been with you her whole life without regrets. I feel the sa, even though I am just an unacknowledged illegitimate daughter, but being your daughter makes happy. I really don’t know what Aunt and Jake are fussing about? If you could find a man as good as Serena Clark, I’d be too grateful… Maybe soone has brainwashed them into thinking you are harming them…”
Selena Horton’s words imdiately made Oliver Horton feel a stronger sense of responsibility. He openly declared, “Selena, rest assured, once those two leave, I’ll bring you and your mother back ho! I will properly marry your mom and make you the official lady of the Horton family!”
Selena Horton’s eyes reddened, “Dad, mom and I really don’t care about that… All we care is having your heart.”
Then she looked towards Jake Horton and lissa Knight, “Aunt, Jake, the things you have are what my mom and I have always yearned for, please cherish them, okay?”
Hearing these words filled with hidden anings, Jake Horton felt even more furious and was so angry he couldn’t speak.
lissa Knight cried uncontrollably.
Keira Olsen and Lewis Horton watched from the side, exchanging glances.
At that mont, Keira Olsen suddenly understood why Jake Horton so strongly hated the illegitimate daughter.
Selena Horton’s insinuations are indeed powerful, tightly grasping Oliver Horton’s heart. Those casual remarks are actually filled with longing and defense for Oliver Horton, making him even more protective over her.
For all these years, Jake Horton has been suppressed by this illegitimate daughter, not unjustly.
As Keira Olsen was thinking, Lewis Horton suddenly leaned in and whispered, “Mrs. Horton has good tactics.”
Keira Olsen raised an eyebrow at him.
Lewis Horton then laughed, “Stirring up internal conflicts among them, now Serena Clark doesn’t need to be married into the family, and we two can also get out of this vortex.”
Keira Olsen just smiled silently.
She is no saint. Jake Horton had betrayed her once, and she wouldn’t forgive him. The recent provoking of Jake Horton was indeed for this reason.
Look, their family is fighting now, isn’t it that no one is paying attention to herself and Lewis Horton?
However, the fighting power of Jake Horton and lissa Knight is really weak. It makes her, the bystander, want to speak out.
Hold back, must hold back.
As Keira Olsen thought this, Oliver Horton was completely brainwashed by those words of Selena Horton, now furiously glaring at Jake Horton and lissa Knight, and pointing toward the door shouting:
“Fine, you don’t care about , right? Then get out right now! The Horton family does not welco you!”
“lissa Knight, you don’t want to divorce ? Let tell you, it’s not up to you! I’m going to find a lawyer right now to draft the divorce papers!”
Then, looking at Jake Horton, “And you, this ungrateful son, want to escape from ? Fine, I’ll let you leave, and we’ll see what you beco without the Horton family’s support!”
Oliver Horton finally roared, “Get out!!”
