The Abandoned Husband Dominates
Translator: Atlas StudiosEditor: Atlas Studios
Not only did Matthew expose Jordanâs blindness, he even publicly accused him of being impotent. How despicable! For a man, being humiliated like this was even worse than being called a blind man!
Clarice Howard and many girls from the major families covered their mouths and laughed. Others believed Matthewâs claims and started discussing amongst themselves.
âIs Jordan really impotent? I didnât expect this man to be so useless!â
âL feel so sad for Lauren. As a woman, she canât find happiness in her married life. Sigh.â
âWhat a waste! What a waste! A woman with goddess-like looks and a figure like Lauren is married to an impotent man! Ah! Why didnât she marry me?! Iâll definitely be able to make her a hundred times happier!â
Jordan was furious when he heard the scornful comments from the other guests! No one reacted much when Jordanâs blindness was revealed. They all just pitied him.
However, no one showed sympathy for his alleged impotency. Instead, they were full of endless mockery and jealous hatred!
He had such a beautiful wife, but he couldnât satisfy her? What right did a man like him have to be Laurenâs husband?!
Jordan was livid. That b*stard Matthew dared to embarrass him in public! Since Jordan was pretending to be blind, he could not beat up Matthew just like that. He was not even supposed to know where Matthew was standing.
Therefore, Jordan waved at Matthew and said, âMr. Manning, come here.â
âWhatâs the matter?â
Matthew walked forward.
Smack!
Jordan slapped Matthew!
Matthewâs glasses flew to the ground. Matthew was quite weak and skinny, and he almost fell to the floor.
âMr. Manning, did you feel the strength of a real man?â
This b*stard dared to insult Jordan by saying that he was not a man. He was just asking for a beating!
Marissa immediately stood up and shouted at Jordan, âJordan! Who allowed you to hit him?! This is your grandfatherâs birthday banquet. Matthew is a guest of the Howard family. Donât you know the proper way to behave?! Apologize to him now!â
Jordan was very angry and retorted. âMother, youâre my mother-in-law and Iâm your son-in-law. You heard what Matthew said earlier. He was slandering your own son-in-law. Instead of helping me, youâre defending him? Are you still fit to be my mother-in-law?!â Jordan questioned Marissa, accusing
her of not doing her duty as a mother-in-law!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
The guests at present were all from upper-class society and knew what was right and wrong. They would not blindly stand on the Howard familyâs side.
Unexpectedly, Marissa snorted. âSlander? Hehe, how would I know if Matthew is slandering you? Maybe heâs telling the truth. Iam indeed your mother-in-law, but donât expect me to speak up for you in such matters. I canât prove what you say is true or not!â
âYouâ¦â
Jordan was speechless at Marissaâs words. If he had known that night
Clarice said with a smile, âThatâs right, Jordan. Mom canât stand up for you on such matters. Lauren is the only one who can prove your claims. Itâs useless to blame Mom.â
At this moment, Lauren finally stood up. She looked a little shy, but she still mustered her courage and said to Matthew.
âMatthew, you have no idea what you are saying. Let me tell you, my husband is⦠heâs⦠extremely formidable!â
âUhâ
Jordan was a little embarrassed by the word âextremelyâ.
Hearing Laurenâs praise, the women who were mocking Jordan looked at him again. However, their gazes were no longer mocking and disdainful. Instead, they were filled with envy. Some women even drooled!
Cayden was very unhappy when he heard this. He downed his drink in one gulp!
âDamn it! Why is it that every woman I like has been used by Jordan before! Hailey was like that, and now Lauren is the same!â
Cayden hated that Lauren was already Jordanâs woman. He always ended up picking up Jordanâs leftovers.
Matthew was young and had never been in a relationship before. Therefore, his viewpoint on love was more naive and stubborn. He couldnât help grabbing Laurenâs hand and saying with agitation. âLauren, donât be with this blind man. Iâve liked you since the first time I saw you. I wonât marry anyone but
you!â
Lauren hurriedly tried to reject him. âMatthew, let go. Donât be like this.â
Even Marissa felt that something was wrong when she saw Matthew holding Laurenâs hand. âChild, we can understand that you like Lauren, but you canât do this.â
At this moment, Marissa was also mentally striking Matthew off her list of potential sons-in-law. He was too young and immature.
Jordan was very anxious. He clearly saw Matthew holding Laurenâs hand, but he could not reach out to separate them. As he was âblind, he should not be able to see what was happening.
Even if he knew, it was impossible for him to accurately figure out where their hands were.
âAtrocious!â
Jordan did not want another manâs disgusting hands in contact with his wife!
At that moment, Jordan suddenly felt a white thing spinning towards him!
Jordan panicked a little. He thought that the thing was aimed at him. He was still hesitating if he should pretend not to see it or dodge it in time. Unexpectedly, the object hit the back of Matthewâs hand!
âOuch!â
Matthew cried out in pain. It was a spoon. It smashed into Matthewâs hand, forcing him to let go of Lauren.
At this moment, a young manâs voice came from the northwest direction. âYou overestimate yourself. Stand up. The top of your head doesnât even reach Ms. Laurenâs nose. Are you worthy of liking Ms. Lauren?â
Matthewâs hand had swelled up. He shouted angrily, âWho? Who threw this spoon at me?!â
At this moment, a man with a recent figure stood up. âMe!â
âWho are you?â Matthew asked.
âHenry Zeller from Orlando!â
Jordan could not help glancing at him. This guy was the candidate from Orlando, the one who was known as the all-around genius. From the fact that he could accurately throw a spoon right at Matthewâs hand from so far away, this fellow seemed to be quite capable.
Marissa was afraid that Matthew and Henry would get into a fight and hurriedly said, âHenry, itâs time for your performance. Come here. Matthew, go back to your seat and rest.â
âWith those words, Henry walked over confidently and bowed respectfully to Martin.
Martin smiled and nodded at him. âHenry Zeller, what are you good at?â
Henry smiled. âMr. Howard Sr., you should be asking what it is I am not good at.. There is nothing I cannot do!â
