My Dreamy Old Husband

Chapter 1341

In the end, they failed to convince Cooper to stay.

During this whole time, Maddie did not dare look up once. She figured these thoughts must have gone through Cooper’s mind: How can Joel’s father-in-law be this crude? Why did Joel marry a woman of such a background? Was this how the matriarch of the Fletcher Family was brought up? The Fletchers are such a disgrace!

Sophia announced, “We’re leaving now!”

There was nothing much she could do in this situation either, but the damage had been done. She did not plan on apologizing or paying for his medical bills; not even for a rabies shot.

Just then, Joel walked through the door. He had already heard of what happened. Seeing the somber look on Cooper’s face, he gave a sincere apology. “I’m so sorry you had to see this.”

Cooper did not answer him and simply stormed off.

The situation left Joel feeling both frustrated and embarrassed.

Inside the conference room, Maddie felt even more ashamed to face Joel and the Fletcher Family. She kept her head down and let her tears continue to fall.

Before she had a chance to speak, a fiery slap landed on her cheek, making half of her face go numb.

A voice exploded like thunder by her ear. “Maddie Evans! The nerve you have to show up here!”

Seeing how she let the ‘Linus Family’ slip away with just a few words, and how she ruined Clive and Tawny’s marriage once again, Mr. Evans pointed at her and bellowed, “Get down on your knees! Now!”

But, she remained where she was and only continued to weep in silence. She was not crying because she had gotten reprimanded, but because she brought shame onto Joel.

When Mr. Evans saw that she did not budge, he raised his hand to slap her again. This time, however, another hand stretched out from beside Maddie and caught Mr. Evans’ arm with strength so exceptional that it sent a sharp pain through his bones.
