Standing to do howork was already driving him to the brink, let alone standing to write.

His sister’s thods of punishnt were really pushing him to the brink of sanity.

Soon after, Paige Sterling confiscated the little yellow book, returned to her room, and tossed it aside, then went out to see Sumr Xavier.

Listening to Sumr Xavier vent about recent events, she finally felt so relief.

After this incident, surely both Mrs. Xavier and Sumr Xavier would be more cautious with marriage matters in the future.

This made her feel much at ease.

When Paige Sterling got ho, she found Julian Hawthorne was already back, lying in bed reading.

Seeing him so engrossed, she thought he was reading so world classic, leaned over to take a look, and was greeted by a whole page of...

Uh uh ah ah...

Paige Sterling gave Julian Hawthorne a strange look, and Julian Hawthorne returned it with an equally strange look.

Then both simultaneously said, "You’re reading this kind of book at ho?"

Paige: "Not ."

Julian: "Not ."

After staring at each other for a while, Julian tossed the book aside and pulled Paige Sterling into his arms.

Paige Sterling glimpsed the cover of the book and imdiately said, "The book was confiscated from Burt Chambers!"

Julian: "Even Burt Chambers read it, but you haven’t. Burt Chambers will laugh at you."

Paige: "...?"

Julian’s look turned dangerous, "But it doesn’t matter, if you haven’t read it, I’ll give you a personal experience."

Paige: "..."

...

As Sumr Xavier anticipated, Mrs. Abbott was driven to a frenzy by her son’s stupidity.

Back ho, her hands trembled violently with anger pointing at Ryan Abbott.

"You fool! A woman has you so infatuated that you lose all sense! Why don’t you just anger to death?!"

Although scolding her son, Mrs. Abbott was even more upset with Willa Sherman.

She felt she had been good to her sister’s family.

Though Willa wasn’t her sister’s biological daughter, just adopted, she’d never shortchanged her.

Yet this little seductress bewitched her son and left the Abbott family’s reputation in ruins. Such a ho-wrecking spirit will never set foot in their family’s door.

In summary, this incident strengthened Mrs. Abbott’s resolve to dislike Willa Sherman.

Ryan Abbott noticed his mother’s severe anger and, fearing for her fragile health, quickly said, "Mom, please don’t be upset, I know I was wrong, I’m admitting my mistake, you can punish as you like, just don’t harm your health because of ..."

Seeing her son so obediently admitting his mistake, being a mother, how could she stay mad?

But thinking about the broken relationship with the Xavier family and future challenges for Abbott family, she couldn’t help but worry.

She sighed deeply.

"Ryan, you must understand, our Abbott family is not what it was before, marrying into the Xavier family may aggrieve you, but it preserves our whole family. If you marry their daughter, would they let us fall into ruin? Besides, Sumr Xavier is decent in all aspects, quite suitable for you, even if you don’t like her, there’s no need to make it this bad, you could just marry and leave her there..."

Mrs. Abbott earnestly said, "You are still young, lacking foresight, aren’t I doing this for you? Now you see Willa as your everything, but without money, would she still remain devoted to you?"

Ryan wanted to defend Willa, to say she wasn’t a materialistic woman. His relationship with Willa was purely out of love, unrelated to wealth or status.

But seeing his mother’s dulled expression, he didn’t say much.

Mrs. Abbott continued, "I’ve been through this, I see more clearly than you. Do you really think there is any relationship in this world completely untouched by money and status? If you weren’t from Abbott family, if you had no money or status, who would be with you? You’ve ruined your marriage arrangent with Xavier family, the only one benefiting is Willa Sherman, not a good move for you, what can she offer except leeching off you? You regard her words as gospel, turning a deaf ear to mine, think about it, apart from , who else would so unselfishly consider your future?"

Mrs. Abbott nearly went mad trying to convince Ryan, thinking her effort might have so effect.

She was surprised when Ryan replied, "Mom, your misunderstanding of Willa is too deep. You liked her before and said she was a good girl, why change now that we’re together?"

Ryan added, "I know Willa’s family cannot compare to Abbott family, but she’s truly kind and pure. I don’t need her to do anything for , just loving , supporting, giving courage and encouragent is my greatest happiness."

Mrs. Abbott was so enraged she could hardly breathe.

It seed all her advice fell on deaf ears!

Mrs. Abbott shook her finger at Ryan, trembling with indignation, "You unfilial son! Is your mother important or that woman?"

Willa might have fooled Ryan but couldn’t deceive Mrs. Abbott.

This girl has been scheming since young, but, not being her daughter, Mrs. Abbott did manage to turn a blind eye.

Even at tis she indulged Willa.

But who would have thought Willa’s scheming would soday target her naive son and manipulate him thoroughly?

No mother can abide another woman ensnaring their son like this.

She said, frustrated, "You hopeless fool, I’m not your mother! She is! Let tell you, don’t listen to today, soday you will regret it!"

Seeing his mother’s breath faltering, Ryan hastily said, "Mom, I know you consider my best interests, everything you do is for , but have you ever thought, is it what I want? Aren’t you supposed to put my needs first? How is forcing with things I dislike being good for ? You’ve seen Sumr Xavier, her temperant hardly matches mine, forcing ourselves together will only make us resentful."

Then he added, "Moreover, Xavier family isn’t extraordinary, even if we offend them, so what? Would Abbott family fear Xavier family?"

Mrs. Abbott, "..."

She realized her effort was wasted.

After all, her son remained conceited, oblivious to Abbott family’s precarious situation, still seeing it as his refuge.

Indeed, he dared so recklessly because of Abbott family?

Mrs. Abbott had no way to persuade Ryan, brainwashed by Willa Sherman.

Since she couldn’t sway Ryan, she must confront Willa Sherman.

If it wasn’t for that cunning girl, how would her good son turn so idiotic?

Although Willa was her sister’s daughter, that family married into a common household and couldn’t match Abbott family’s status.

Hence, often sent Willa to Sherman family.

Willa often stayed with the Abbott family for months, who never lacked money and naturally treated her well.

In Abbott family, Willa’s days were free of worry, akin to a true daughter of the family.

Now even has Ryan at her beck and call, surely Ryan will fight family for her. Soon she’ll beco Ryan’s wife, Abbott family’s daughter-in-law.
