Tame Me My Brother -in-Law

95. HEARTLESS
CELINE’s POV
“Why?” Brylee questioned as she looked at Sebastian, her eyes turning red and trembling as she did so. Her hand was pressed firmly against her chest, and she was taking deep breaths.
“Don’t be sad, Brylee…” Sasha said worriedly as she scooted closer to her and gently ran her fingers through her hair. “The doctor warned that you won’t be able to handle any more stress than this…”
I was met with a glare from Mrs. Anderson, who had recently emerged from the kitchen. “You’re very proud of what you did, huh?”
“Mom!” Sebastian tried to stop his mother, but all she did was roll her eyes at him. Disappointment was written all over her face as she approached the area where we were standing.
“I don’t care how much trouble you usually cause, Sebastian!” s said, gritting her teeth. “But do you even have any idea what you gotten yourself into? Do you even realize how heartless the woman you married is?”
Sebastian startled me by suddenly snapping his head in my direction while maintaining a grin on his lips. “My wife has a face, a nose, two eyes, and a mouth…”
And as he did so, he lifted his hand to brush the hair that had been. covering my face, tucked it behind my ear, and gazed at me with an affectionate expression on his face.
“She’s not a monster, mom…” he said calmly. “How could you possibly say that she’s heartless?”

“You should get a divorce as soon as possible!” Mrs. Anderson exclaimed, and it appeared as though she was not satisfied with the answer that her son provided. She then turned around and sat next to

“Mom…” Brylee’s voice was soft as she murmured, looking so aggrieved.
“It’s okay, sweetheart…” She comforted her while she hugged her very tightly: “Don’t worry… things are going to turn out fine. Just trust me…’
The words that Mrs. Anderson used to reassure her sounded
suspicious to me, as if she were making preparations for something.
I snorted, but I kept my mouth shut and didn’t say anything.
“What are you laughing at?” Sebastian’s mother’s eyes widened as she looked at me, and I almost rolled my eyes at the way ev the room was staring at me with sickening looks.
I smiled and tried not to give them the satisfaction of seeing was bothered by the way they were looking at me.

“Nothing at all, mother. Simply put, I thought the way you expressed yourself sounded very intriguing. If this is the case… you are aware that we are now living in a modern world. Your son is indeed very outstanding, but he doesn’t deserve concubines, does he?”
“Who told you to call me mother?” she sneered. “Now even the dogs. and cats are referring to me as mom! Oh my G od! I can’t believe this!”
“Oh, mom…!” I decided to tease her even more, and this time I did it out loud. “It’s only natural for me to refer to you as my mother, regardless of whether or not you acknowledge the fact that I am

“Celine…” Sebastian warned me, but I ignored him.
“You know, as long as you hear a cat or dog calling you, don’t regard yourself as ‘human’ like me. After all, cats and dogs won’t call a human, mom… They would only call animals of their species, mom…”
I raised a brow in a mocking way, and I couldn’t help but c rack a grin in silence when Mrs. Anderson gaped at me in complete silence.
Sebastian leaned in close to my ear and whispered, “Don’t get into any more trouble, Celine. Please refrain from making her angry again…”
