Chapter 597 Psychopath
A psychopath!
Who would pine for a psychopath?
Austin's words fell and it was all quiet in the house.
Loisâ face stiffened and frowned for a long time without a sound.
Cora, sitting on the bed, was also dumbfounded, her eyes unblinking as
she stared at Austin, questioning him through clenched teeth: "So in
your eyes I'm a lunatic? If I'm a lunatic, why don't you just divorce me?
Wouldn't a crazy person be a disgrace to you as your wife?"
"What could be more humiliating than what you did today. Cora, Hance
City and Ayan made you crazy. Ever since you came to Hance City,
you've known what's been in your head. You've provoked Camille over
and over again, made so many little moves to throw dirt on her, and
even went so far as to get yourself into a situation where Eileen almost
gave you that disease. You've gone crazy over a man who won't even
look at you."
Austin tore off all the pretense, his tolerance for Cora and tolerance
were based on his thought that she would fall in love with him sooner or
later, but after today and her behavior towards Ayan so far, he knew
that Cora was a piece of ice that can never be warmed up.
She only had Ayan in her heart and only wanted to get back together
with Ayan. She would never learn to face reality.
Austin stared at her eyes flooded with coldness. He did not wait for
Cora to respond but continued: "Today's matter is just Ayan warning
you and me. I do not care what you are thinking. But you have to
remember, you are still Austinâs wife. Your disgrace is not only mine, but
also a blow to my family. You should personally explain to everyone in
this project, or you will leave leave Hance City!"
After Austin finished, he gave Cora a deep look, with a slow warning
and threat under his eyes, then turned around and left the room.
When Austin left, Lois immediately went up to Cora, her eyes full of
concern: "Cora, are you okay? Did he abuse you?"
Cora didn't move, just sat there with Austin's words echoing in her ears.
The more she thought about it, the more emotional she became,
especially with Loisâ voice echoing in her ears at the moment. She
subconsciously thought about when Lois stood by Austin and helped
Austin convince her to get married. If she and Austin had not gotten
married, if Ayan had completely taken over the Simpson Group and he
could have made everything himself, then the person standing by
Ayan's side today would be her.
But she was trapped by her marriage. She couldn't stand by his side
with her head held high. She couldn't help herself when she thought
about it. She raised her hand and pushed Lois to the ground with force.
With obvious hatred in her eyes, she said: "Get out! Get out! I hate you,
I hate you, it's all you, you made me what I am, I hate you!"
Lois was stunned, and the hand that reached out to touch her was
instantly stopped in mid-air and froze.
Lois looked at her with a stiff face, not knowing what to say at all for a
while.
Cora got out of bed, her clothes were in disarray, and her face was a
far cry from her usual modesty and generosity.
She glared at Lois with anger in her eyes and vented all her frustrations
at Lois, smashing everything she could in the bedroom. She shouted
more hysterically at Lois: "Are you satisfied? You let me marry Austin in
order to secure your position. You think that if I marry Austin, you will
secure your position in his family. Do you think Austin will really forget
that his mother died in a car accident because of you?"
Cora sneered, then pushed Lois away and darted out of the bedroom.
Cora was so emotional that she ran out of the bedroom and left the
house. She didn't want to stay any longer and she didn't want to see
Lois and Austin. She hated them, and she hated them so much.
When she ran out, Lois immediately chased her out, but Cora had
already taken the elevator. Lois was worried that she would have an
accident if she was in a bad mood now, so she immediately went and
knocked on the door of the study.
She stood in the doorway and said to Austin, "Austin, Cora really knows
she's wrong, she's just confused. After I take her away from Hance City,
everything will be fine and you will go back to the old days. Just help
mommy to find her, don't let anything happen to her, okay?"
Austin did not respond immediately, until he had finished the cigarette
in his hand, then he raised his eyes and glanced at Lois, his eyebrows
revealing a sneer: "You have not seen her attitude towards me? I don't
have the ability to find her, but you knew my intentions at first but you
still did what I wanted and what was your intention?"
âI ... 1 don't have any intention. I just think you really like her, I want her
to have a perfect home. I don't mean anything else." Lois explained
anxiously, not quite daring to look him straight in the eye.
But her words made Austin laugh out loud: "A perfect home? Aren't you
trying to impress me, your bloodless stepson to always be the Mrs.
Norman?"
âI didn't think in that way..."
"Okay, no more pretending. My father's old and can't see through what
kind of person you are through your tenderness, but I'm not. So you
don't need to play any more tricks in front of me, you just need to
remember that you are just a nanny who takes care of my father, even
if you are his wife to the public. On legal documents, his spouse name
until the day he dies can only be my mother alone.â
Austin didn't allow Lois to say more and interrupted her directly. The
sarcasm and warning in his words made Lois silent, and Lois at that
moment was already humble to the dust, back to the way it was before
Austin was with Cora.
She knew in her heart that Austin actually mind it because she was a
nursing worker when her father was sick. At that time, Austin's parentsâ
relationship was not good. Her attentive care and understanding made
Austin's father moved, and then also led to the broken marriage with
Austin's mother, after which she naturally entered his family and was
always fawning on Austin until Austin was in love with Cora, and only
then was her position consolidated.
Especially since he and Cora were married, he treated her with respect
and politeness. Probably because he was used to that kind of attitude,
Lois was angered by Austin's remark as well.
She pursed her lips and retorted, âI have been true to your father and
you, and if it weren't for me all these years, would your father's body be
as strong and healthy as it is now?"
âThat's why I pay you a high amount of money every month for your
care. Do you think that's a gift to please you?" Austin grimaced, then
said indifferently, âIf I were you, I should close the door and leave me
alone right now, then go find Cora and tell her to get the hell back to
Campole right now."
Austin was angery, so Lois dared not continue to say.
But where was she going to find Cora?
Cora left the house like a puppet on a string and walked downstairs to
the Simpson building. Her heart felt like it had been hollowed out and
she kept asking herself, "Did Ayan really mean all that happened
today?"
Did Ayan set her up with Austin?
But she couldn't believe it.
She didn't want to believe it.
She had always seen Ayan differently. She felt that he still had her in
his heart, otherwise how could he have been willing to find a doctor to
treat her without Austin's knowledge after knowing her health
condition?
He was not at all the kind of person Austin said he was. It was just
Austin deliberately smearing him.
But if it really had nothing to do with Ayan, why would Austin arrive in
the first place?
She controlled the urge to rush up and question Ayan, but found a room
in the nearby hotel. In the hotel room, she made a phone call.
She asked the person on the other end of the line, "Hello, I'd like to ask
if Master Tucker is still with the Simpson Group. I'm Master Tucker's
secretary and I'm not sure if he is still at Simpson Group because he
can't be reached at the moment.â
