Not One, But Two!

Chapter 157

Chapter 157

"Ouch!" Greg didn't hold back and he kicked Jonathan hard. Instantly, Jonathan fell to the ground with his face plastered to the floor.

Emma was pained to see that, and she forgot about her fears and leaped forward to help him up.

"Jonathan, are you alright?"

"Get away from me!"

Jonathan had never experienced such humiliation before but that person there was his uncle, a man who hardly anyone in Harrion dared to cross, so he could only vent his anger on Emma.

Suddenly, Emma didn't catch herself in time and she was shoved to the ground by Jonathan. Her palms instantly were bruised.

Ever since Jonathan was discovered in Emma's bed, Sasha was quite clear on his behavior toward Emma. Right now, the older woman saw his mistreatment of Emma, and she was significantly displeased.

"Jonathan, be a man and direct your anger at the person involved! Don't you dare vent on Emma! Don't assume that you can just bully her because you come from the exalted Fraser Family! It won't look good for either of us if I make a fuss of things!"

Sasha had been quite pleased to have Jonathan as her son-in-law five years ago, but for the past five years, he had no intention of signing the marriage papers with Emma, so Sasha had harbored resentment since ages ago. After all, five years of a woman's time was precious.

Emma had steadfastly waited for Jonathan for the past five years but right now, he seemed to have his eyes set on Abigail. A few days ago, Victoria had even turned up here to insult them. In fact, Sasha was now kind of reluctant to let Emma marry Jonathan. After all, if the man treated her like dirt, what was the point of marrying into their family?

Sasha wasn't a kind person, but she treated Emma very well and she would never allow her daughter to be bullied and humiliated.

Meanwhile, Jonathan had never expected that Sasha, who usually flattered him, would dare to say such words to him. At that moment, he was angered beyond words. They must all be doing this on purpose! They're purposely trying to humiliate me in front of Abigail!

Jonathan angrily tried to speak up, but Greg suddenly voiced out calmly, "Jonathan, you've dragged your engagement with Emma for five years now. It's time for you to sign the marriage papers. After all, a woman's youth is precious and everyone in Harrion knows that she's yours. Both of you aren't young anymore, so I'll find time to speak to Victoria and discuss the wedding date. Besides, as the future groom, I'm sure that you wouldn't renege on your words and break off the engagement, right?"

Greg's words caused Jonathan to suddenly lift his head and stare at Greg aghast.

Jonathan evidently was aware of his mom and grandmother's attitude toward Greg, so if the latter actually went and talked to Jonathan's mother about his engagement with Emma, then she definitely would no longer object to it despite her dislike of the bride.

"Uncle Greg, this is my affair, so you shouldn't interfere," Jonathan said through clenched teeth.

Why does it have to be Uncle Greg of all people? Why does he have to go after Abigail and fight with me for her attention?
