Chapter 11 Being a Stepmother
Chapter 11 Being a Stepmother
"What?" Cole couldn't help screaming on the stairs with his eyes wide opened.
Lemuel, who was about to step out of the parlor, suddenly stopped as well.
Though he had been prepared for the sudden notice, he still couldn't help shivering when hearing that. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
"Dad, are you mistaken? Or I am?" Cole hurried to go downstairs and stood in front of Wilson.
"You are not mistaken. Neither am I. Since you didn't catch that, let me repeat it again. From now on,
she is my wife and also your stepmother!"
Wilson emphasized every single word again.
"Really? What the hell?" Cole screamed again. Then he looked at Lemuel as if he was calling for help,
"Lemuel, say something! Convince the old man!"
Lemuel turned around and fixed his cold eyes on Wilson. However, he was talking to Cole, "Why
should I convince him? I don't care even if he died! Not to mention that he just married a young wife."
Verena smiled bitterly in her mind.
Wilson was so mad that he coughed for a while. Then he thumped on the ground with his cane, looking
angry, "You little jerk!"
Lemuel sneered and then turned around to walk out of the gate.
"Stop right here!" Cole gasped angrily and then ordered, "From now on, you have to live here!"
Lemuel mocked, "Before she moves in, I don't even live here! Now you admit such a cheap one in! And
you still want me to stay here? Could that be possible?"
The disdain and disgust were clearly shown in his eyes.
Verena turned her head aside and kept her head down.
Lemuel still stared at her coldly as if he wanted to see her through.
Verena flinched back. Her heart was overwhelmed by panic and embarrassment.
"Enough!" when noticing the weird air between them, Wilson huffed, "Do you still want that thing?"
When hearing that, Lemuel turned his head aside to squint at him.
"If you want it, come with me to the study!"
After saying that, Wilson headed to the study.
Lemuel strode to follow behind.
Then, only Verena and Sammy were left in the parlor. Besides, Cole, wrapped in the towel, was stills
standing there.
Cole crossed his arms on his chest and looked at Verena from head to toe. Then he asked offensively,
"Hey, tell me, how do you hook up with the old man?"
Verena looked at him, looking surprised, 'What is he talking about?'
"You don't look pretty. Nor is your body sexy…Well, actually, you do look a little bit pretty. But I don't
think you can hook up with the old man just like that. Well, so are you good at something special?"
He mocked while looking at her.
As she collected herself, Verena glared at him and hit him hard with her own body. Then she sat down
on the sofa.
Cole raised his head and rested his arm on the sofa, "Wow, as expected, you look like the stepmom of
Snow White and also the stepmom of the little match girl! An evil mistress! You are now planning to kill
your stepson as soon as you get married!"
However, Verena simply ignored him.
"Oh, you can also play deaf, right?"
Then he seemed to come up with a trick. He suddenly stood up and took off the towel.
"Ahhh!" Verena couldn't help screaming by his sudden move. She closed her eyes tight.
What a freak!
"Why do you close your eyes so soon? Why don't you appreciate my body? The stepmom of Snow
White!" Cole looked quite complacent when seeing her reaction.
Verena still kept her eyes closed, "Sir, don't you think you need to see a psychologist?"
"A psychologist?" Cole looked a bit confused.
"I mean that you are out of your mind! So you have to be kept in a mental hospital!" Verena answered
mockingly.
When hearing that, Cole got so mad that he was about to explode. He really wanted to strangle her
alive.
Then he held up a glass of water and then tilted it. All the water inside was splashed onto her clothes
and feet.
He looked quite satisfied when seeing her awkward look. Then he stared at her and emphasized each
single word, "Welcome home, stepmom! Just look forward to your living with us in the following days!
Trust me, it will be quite interesting…"
Verena's heart kept beating fast out of control when she heard that. She was aware that the following
days would be tough.
At this moment, Wilson's voice sounded from the second floor, "Cole! What are you doing?"
Cole smiled to answer, "Just a warm welcome to my stepmom."
"Get yourself changed! Don't run around with a towel on your body!"
"Okay, got it!" Cole let out a meaningful smile at Verena.
"Besides, go to notice Walker to spare two more rooms here! One for your brother and the other for
your stepmom!"
Cole looked quite surprised, "Did Lemuel agree to live here?"
"Just go!" Wilson shouted. Then he said to Verena, "From now on, you live here!"
Verena felt quite agitated. How could she live in such a hellish place! Then she hurried to stand up, "I
don't think I should…"
"That's it! The butler Walker will then bring you your belongings."
