Chapter 130

After giving a few instructions to the staff, Lola left with Doris.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Rupert’s apartment complex.

Doris carried Arianna as she and Lola took the elevator up to Rupert’s unit.

When they reached the sixth floor, the elevator doors opened to reveal Peyton standing helplessly by the door, while Jimmy looked grim.

There were cigarette butts scattered around Jimmy’s feet–he looked irritated and frustrated.

“Doris, you’re finally here.” Peyton’s eyes lit up when she saw her.

“Dad, Mom.” Doris glanced at Peyton, a little worried about her health. “Are you okay?”

Arianna greeted them. “Grandpa, Grandma.”

“I’m fine,” Peyton smiled at Arianna. “Ari, you’re such a good girl.”

Doris asked, “What happened? Why won’t the door open?”

“We don’t know. We tried the key so many times, but it won’t work.” Peyton shook her head. “We called Rupert, but he’s out of town, and he has no idea either.”

“Claudia must be behind this,” Jimmy muttered angrily.

“You can’t say that without proof. If Rupert hears you blaming Claudia, it won’t be good.” Peyton was still trying to look out for their son’s marriage.

“Oh please, do you really think your son has the guts to blame his wife? The moment Claudia raises her voice, he wouldn’t even dare breathe too loudly. Let’s face it–he’s forgotten all about us since getting married.” Jimmy had learned this firsthand from living at Rupert’s place.

Claudia was always making passive–aggressive remarks. On the surface, she was scolding Rupert, but in reality, her words were aimed at them.

Peyton, being the gentle type, never argued with Claudia. But Jimmy wasn’t the type to endure things in silence. He had never been pushed around like this before, so he ended up arguing with Claudia. And when they fought, it got heated.

“This is our house. How dare you move in?” Claudia said sharply.

“We paid for this house. Why shouldn’t we live here?” Jimmy shot back. “If you think you can kick us out, forget it. I’m telling you, I’m staying right here. Even if I die, it’ll be in this house!”

“You’re such a freeloader,” Claudia sneered. “Your name’s not on the deed. If you insist on staying here till you die, then don’t blame me if I sell the house.”

“You wouldn’t dare!”

“Try me.”

Jimmy pointed a finger at Rupert and snapped, “Rupert, look at the kind of wife you married! She doesn’t even respect your parents. Are you even a man?”
