Husband

Chapter 44



Chapter 44 

Vera’s heart sank. 

Everything she couldn’t obtain ultimately fell into the hands of that poisonous woman, Averie. 

“Hmph!” Neil ran over, kicked Carlos directly, and then ran upstairs to the room without looking back. 

Vera hurriedly chased after him. Passing by Carlos, she couldn’t bear it and angrily rebuked, “You treat your son so well.” 

Ramon also followed, running and shouting at Carlos, “You’re really something. Your ex–wife couldn’t wait to come back to life if she knew this.” 

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Averie wanted to take the opportunity to speak ill of them. “Carlos, I always feel that these two are strange. Could they be…” 

“Shut up,” Carlos scolded angrily. His face darkened, and he went upstairs, leaving Averie alone in the empty dining room. 

Averie felt like a joke. Her anger was stuck in her heart, and she couldn’t vent it. 

She thought, ‘It’s that illegitimate child again. In Carlos’s eyes, I’m not as important as a single finger of that illegitimate child!‘ 

Upstairs, Neil closed the bedroom door and didn’t open it no matter who knocked. 

“Neil, open the door,” Carlos commanded sternly. There was no sound from inside. 

Vera was anxious and couldn’t help but scold Carlos, “Are you satisfied now? You only think about marrying Averie. Have you considered Neil’s feelings?” 

“My family affairs don’t need an outsider to worry about,” Carlos said coldly. 

‘Outsiders? He’s right,‘ Vera thought. 

She had married him for so many years, giving birth to three children for him, but she had always been an outsider. 

“I don’t have time to worry about your family affairs. I just pity my little patient.” 

Facing the man’s icy gaze, Vera rebuked angrily, “He’s not born by the woman you like, so you can treat him like this? 

“It’s been five years. Even if it’s a dog, you can’t bear to see it sad, right? I’m afraid your ex–wife can’t wait to come back to life and hold you accountable if she knows you treated Neil like this. 

“Shut up!” Carlos was provoked by the mention of his ex–wife, and his anger surged. A chilling aura emanated from him. 

“What if I don’t shut up? Are you thinking of strangling me again?As Vera spoke, Carlos reached out and grabbed her throat, tightening his grip. 

“My wife is not dead.” Carlos emphasized each word, pointing to his heart with the other hand, “She lives here.” 

A cold smile appeared on Vera’s face. 

Carlos never treated Vera well during her “life,” not even giving her a good expression. But after her “death,” he became infatuated with her. 

The belated affection was not worth a damn, especially when it was fake. 

“Carlos. Let go of my sweetheart!”

Ramon, unable to open the door, went to the next room to see if there was a possibility of jumping to Neil’s room from the balcony. As soon as he came out, he saw Carlos holding Vera’s neck. 

Anxious, he lifted his foot and kicked towards Carlos. 

But Carlos dodged to the side in advance. 

It was in this momentary distraction that Vera decisively attacked, grabbing Carlos’s arm with both hands and twisting it 

hard. 

At the same time, she raised her right knee. If Carlos hadn’t reacted quickly, freeing one hand to block, he would have been done for. 

But even with just this one move, he felt the pain. 

Regardless of how well Carlos managed his expressions on normal days, at this moment, he couldn’t straighten his back due to the pain. 

Vera brushed her hair with her hand, speaking arrogantly, “Mr. Monroe, here’s some advice. Don’t lay hands on women in 

the future.” 

There is no woman in this world who is easy to provoke.
