Chapter 11

CHAPTER 11

Lisa looked genuinely surprised, whereas Veronica was controlling herself from bursting into laughter because Elizabeth looked like a thousand pound bird crap had crashed upon her and completely ruined her makeup, thereby making her look as ugly as ever. “Who the fuck did you just call an Aunt?” Elizabeth howled in rage and came running at him like an enraged beast.
“W-Wait, I can explain this!” Benjamin ran and stood behind the large dining table. When she came from his left, he ran to his right. When she tried to come from his right, he ran to his left.
“What’s there to explain? I’m only forty years old, and you dare call me an aunt!” She looked for something to hit him with. She picked the nearest objects, the flower vases, and began throwing those things at him. “I’m not even thirty, and your children call me uncle, don’t they?” Benjamin asked. “Shut up,” Elizabeth didn’t care to even comprehend what he just said. She only wanted to beat the shit out of him in any way possible. “Stop right there if you have guts!” However, Benjamin kept running. “He’s got a point though,” Veronica opined. “He’s not even thirty, so I’m sure he doesn’t like it when someone calls him uncle. If someone calls me an aunt even by mistake, I’d go to the ends of the earth to slap the living crap out of him, but that’s because I’m just 25, not forty like you.” “Veronica,” Elizabeth glared at her, “did you lose your mind after eating the breakfast he made?” “You ate the same food as I did, so why would I be only losing my mind?” Veronica spoke back Why was this little fool suddenly speaking on behalf of Benjamin all of a sudden? Elizabeth didn’t understand, but as the eldest daughter-in-law, she just couldn’t let Benjamin go after what he said. She looked at the maids and said, “Catch him, or you’ll lose your jobs!”
That was all she needed to say. The maids were forced into action, and they surrounded Benjamin in no time and caught him. Elizabeth made her way in quick strides and grabbed Benjamin by the hair before pushing the maids aside and slapping all the handsomeness out of Benjamin’s face. A total of sixteen slaps, and she stopped only after her wrist began hurting. Her eyes, however, still boiled with rage as she felt like she hadn’t done enough.(What’s with this guy? He doesn’t even flinch after taking so many slaps straight to his face?) What stunned Elizabeth, Veronica, and Lisa was that Benjamin stood like a rock, and he wasn’t taking his eyes off Elizabeth. “What’s with that look? You think I’ll be afraid of you?” Elizabeth was almost the same height as him, as she didn’t put her high-heel shoes on yet. Even though her hands were hurting, she slapped him a few times again.

Just then, Kathy brought a stick from the garden. It was one of those sticks used to keep the dogs in check, and so they wouldn’t break easily.
“This is what I’ve been looking for,” Elizabeth grabbed the stick and beat him left and right at the shoulders, triceps, elbows, thighs, knees, and without any hesitation.
Lisa couldn’t watch it, but Veronica looked amused. Kathy was covering her mouth in shock, as though she didn’t expect Elizabeth would be so cruel.
While Elizabeth kept beating him, he briefly glanced toward the first floor’s balcony from where his wife was looking down at him. He didn’t care how others felt at the moment, but what bothered him was that Rebecca just watched from a distance and didn’t interfere even though Elizabeth was putting all her strength into every swing. That was harder to swallow than the pain his eldest sister-in-law inflicted upon him. “That’s enough,” Jacob’s voice broke out, startling Elizabeth. He walked down the stairs, with a smoking pipe in his mouth. “You are beating your brother in-law with a stick used to beat dogs?” he glared at Elizabeth. “Is this what your parents taught you back home?” “’T-That’s not it, Father-in-law,” she tried to explain herself. “He called me an aunt.” “So what?” Jacob casually swatted her words away. “You think you’re still thirty years old or what? You’re five-fucking-years older than Kathy, the oldest maid in our house. What’s so wrong with a young man calling you an aunt?” Tears welled up in Elizabeth’s eyes. She ran upstairs and went into her room to cry to her husband.
Selena was secretly watching everything from behind a pillar on the first floor and put on a sly smile.
“Maybe you were too harsh on her, Dad,” Veronica opined. She had never seen Elizabeth cry before, so even she felt bad because Lisa was watching everything.
“I was too harsh?” Jacob raised his voice as he looked at Lisa. “Actually, I went easy, real easy, on your mom as I’ve been doing since she and her useless parents stepped into my house. All she has been doing is leeching off of our hard-earned money. It’s about time she picks herself up and shows me she deserves to use my family name in her invitation card, or I’ll make new invitation cards for her titled ‘Aunt Elizabeth.’” Even though Jacob walked outside after his speech, his words left everyone in shock for a little while.
