Chapter 693 Go Fishing Together

Fiddling with her fingers, Kate gave Tiffany a contemptuous look. “Tiffany, all this while, I have resented your family background. If you weren’t Oscar’s god-sister, I would never have agreed to you marrying into this family. Instead of making your in-laws proud like the other daughters-in-law of prominent families, you end up causing plenty of trouble for us. Do you think that Derrick isn’t busy enough? And that you must make his life more difficult than it already is?”

 
 
 
 
 
 

Speechless, Tiffany had nothing to defend herself with.

Since Kate had decided that she was guilty, whatever she said would be useless. In fact, she might end up infuriating the former further.

Kate picked up the ashtray on the table and flung it at Tiffany. With a loud bang, the tray hit the latter’s body and covered her in ash before dropping to the ground.

 

“Are you mute? Why don’t you say something? Are you trying to challenge me, your mother-in-law?” Kate taunted with a glare.

After squirming her lips, a wry smile emerged on Tiffany’s face.

Raising her head, she answered in defiance, “Mom, I paid off the gambling debt with my own money and didn’t trouble Derrick at all. I’m sure I have not crossed the line by helping my own family that way.”

Given how Kate was becoming increasingly intimidating, Tiffany felt that she needed to stand up for herself. Otherwise, she would end up suffering under the former’s thumb.

“Since you’re now married to Derrick, your assets are his assets too. Therefore, how can you squirrel away money to save that disgraceful family of yours?” Kate mocked Tiffany with a curl of her lips.

Infuriated by the slight, Tiffany took a deep breath. “Mom, can you watch what you say?”

Kate retorted, “Did I say anything wrong? Isn’t your family a bunch of beggars waiting for handouts?”

Tiffany gritted her teeth and sneered, “Mom, isn’t it unbecoming of you, a lady of a prominent family, to be calling others names?”

Just because I don’t bare my fangs, she thinks that I’m a pushover.

As her expression drastically changed, Kate rolled her eyes at Tiffany. “It hasn’t been that long ago since you got married, and your family has already caused so many problems by treating the Hissons as a charity organization. Derrick has spent three million alone just to bail them out. Our family might not need the money, but it doesn’t mean that you can take advantage of us, for the Hissons are no fools at all.”
