Reclaiming Her Heart -
Chapter 373 No One is Without Fault
The servant was speechless and didn't know what to say, so he went to make the coffee.
Today, Steven brought his two sons with him. The eldest son is 24 years old and the youngest son is 22. Both of them are of marriageable age.
However, Steven's salary and mortgage payments make it difficult for him to afford a down payment for a house, let alone buying two if they decide to purchase.
The eldest son used to have a girlfriend, but when she heard that he couldn't afford the mortgage, she broke up with him.
Nobody wanted to live with their family in a small 70-square-meter house, especially with two sons. No one was willing to live outside either, considering the expensive rent.
So, the whole family of six lived in the house that Steven needed to pay the mortgage for.
Steven's wife had been staying at home without going to work, and she hadn't looked for a job in years.
Steven was extremely resentful and often scolded her. Whenever something didn't go well at work, he would come home and physically abuse his wife.
Others could see it, but nobody intervened, as it had become the norm.
A woman raising two kids and taking care of two elderly people didn't have a single day of rest.
But everyone believed that the man who earns money outside is the pillar of the family and the one who works the hardest. They thought that a woman taking care of children and elderly is the easiest. So, this wife became an outlet for everyone's frustrations at home.
When Victoria was in a bad mood, she would seize any opportunity to scold her. When the two sons were in a bad mood, they would also seize any opportunity to scold her. Steven himself would resort to physical violence. Today, Steven only brought his two sons along. These two sons were his pride and joy. As for his wife, who had become a haggard-looking woman, he couldn't bear to show her off.
The Fair family's villa was too magnificent, and everyone was dazzled by it. Steven secretly swore that he must live here.
Then, he would divorce his wife. After all, if he's living in the villa, what use is his current wife? Why not replace a young and beautiful one?
Steven was daydreaming when he saw Selena and a few bodyguards walking in.
Steven stood up immediately.
"So this is Selena, she's grown so tall. By the way, have you met the blind date I arranged for you? His family owns a small factory, which is more than enough for you." Victoria chimed in from the side.
"Yes, that young man looks talented, even though he made mistakes in the past. But he has learned from them. Men, you know, everyone makes mistakes." Listening to these comments, Selena really wanted to laugh.
Seeing Selena's lack of rebuttal, Steven thought she agreed and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Selena, these are your cousin Lance Fair and Leonard Fair. I plan to have one of them be adopted into your family, so we can become one inseparable family. Plus, we can all go to work at the Fair family company." Steven felt his proposal made perfect sense, but Victoria couldn't help interjecting.
"Both your cousins are at marriageable age and have no money to buy a house. Your family is so wealthy, so why not gift them ten million dollars to buy two houses? Your cousin will surely be grateful to you." Victoria dared not shout in front of Selena.
The incident at the hospital last time had left her traumatized.
Moreover, among the bodyguards standing behind Selena, there was someone who had previously tried to throw her off a building.
At this moment, the nanny brought coffee and placed it on the coffee table.
Selena poured herself a cup, and Victoria thought she was pouring it for herself, so she reached out for it.
"You, girl. Looks like you should spend more time with Tim. Look, now you've become sensible."
But Selena lifted the coffee cup, took a sip, and looked at them coldly.
"If you don't take your luggage and leave within ten minutes, I'll have the bodyguards throw you into the trash bin."
