True Love Waits

Chapter 179

Chapter 179 She's Not Welcome Here


It was Carlos who provided everything for the entire Huo family, so whenever he spoke, both his dad and his grandmother listened. At least those two, James and Valerie, were less authoritative in front of him. Sensing Carlos was about to say something, Megan suggested, "Uncle Carlos, Valerie hasn't eaten dinner yet. But she wanted to have dinner with us. Why don't we eat first? Do it for Valerie?" Carlos ignored her. He pulled Debbie into his arms and announced, "I only need three minutes.

And I'm going to say this only once. If any of you has a problem with Debbie, you have a problem with me! She is my wife, and I love her. If you can't treat her nicely, then we're not staying." There was dead silence in the living room. Valerie sighed. After a while, James roared, "Shut up, you ungrateful son of a bitch! Did I say you could marry her? She's not welcome here!" Carlos was going to talk back, but Debbie pulled at the corner of his shirt and shook her head when he looked back at her.

He knew she was worried about him. After giving Debbie a comforting look, Carlos told James, "Grandpa blessed our marriage. Although he's sick and in hospital, he's still the head of the family. He speaks for all of us. Grandpa's blessing means that she's part of this family. Dad, if you think I should listen to you, you should listen to your dad too. If you have a problem with his decision, take it up with him. Huo men are gentlemen. You should treat women with more respect."

James pointed at him furiously. His mouth opened and closed, but words failed him.

They knew Carlos never backed down, so Valerie compromised. "James, calm down. If your dad made the match, it isn't the kids' fault. Carlos did the right thing, defending his wife. Okay, enough. Time to eat." Debbie blinked in disbelief. 'Has Carlos' grandma actually accepted me? My husband is awesome!'

Tabitha, who had been quiet the whole time, echoed, "Mom's right. It's New Year's Eve. James, please stop. Let's have dinner first."

She barely ever spoke in James' presence. However, as Debbie's mother-in-law, she thought it wrong to remain silent any longer.

Since Tabitha had spoken up, Wade Huo, James' elder brother, spoke up too. He looked at his three sons and reprimanded, "Are you blind? Escort your uncle James to the dining room!"
