Bride to Be, Not Me
Chapter 6
Chapter 6 Simon was surprised that Janice had the guts to take that tone with him. He pulled her to the living room on the second floor.
"Let me go!"
Janice shook his hand off. The tears in her eyes dripped onto her shirt.
"What kind of attitude are you taking with me?"
Simon's misogyny took over him. "Don't you know that I've been helping you throughout today?"
He grabbed her wrist and ignored her struggles. Whether his grip hurt her or not was also not part of his
concerns.
Janice suddenly fell silent.
After a moment, she asked hoarsely, "Were you helping me?"
What had he done for her? Was it when he made a mess so she had to come home to endless chores? Or was it when Simon said he wanted home-cooked food and forced her to cook and bring him food?
"Haven't I paid for half of your house? If I hadn't given the go-ahead, would you hold 25% of Refined Threads Co.'s shares? Countless investors are looking to invest here, but I turned them all down. Janice, how could you be so ungrateful?"
He was shameless. Janice's wrist throbbed. "Simon, let me go."
"What can you do if I don't?" Simon's eyes were rimmed red as he continued, "Janice, you better be careful with that attitude of yours around me. I don't care how you treat Mom or Sarah, but you have to remember where you stand with me.
"Throw out all that rubbish of yours. Keep your emotions in line. Don't let them affect your work."
He flung Janice's hand away like she was a rag doll.
Rubbish... Janice was enraged by his high-and-mighty attitude. She spat, "This 'rubbish' kept Refined Textiles Co. running. Simon, how dare you look down on them?"
Simon paused. "What did you say?"
Janice realized what she had said. She pursed her lips and remained silent.
Simon mocked, "Janice, you've dreamed so much your brain has rotted. Your crochet designs are not bad, I'll admit that.
