Chapter 379
James was confused.
âŠ.
He felt he didnât understand those words.
Having offended Keera, why should he go to Uncle Olsen to admit his fault?
He hesitantly looked toward Ellis, furrowing his brows as he asked, âIs there some special relationship between Keera and Uncle Olsen?â
âYes!â
âWhat kind of relationship is that?â
âWhy donât you go and ask Uncle Olsen yourself, then youâll know.â
Leaving that comment behind, Ellis headed straight out. âI have other things to take care of; Iâll talk to you later.â
âHey, Ellis, what things could you possibly have to do?â
James called out after Ellis.
Ellis, who was walking out, didnât reply when he heard this.
What things could he possibly have to do?
Of course, it was to pick up Mary and bring her home!
He didnât look for her last night, and she really didnât come back. Did she think the mistress of the Olsen family could leave home like this?!
Ellis quickly arrived at the South residence.
After the servant opened the door, he saw Mary patiently feeding Amy complementary food; she held a spoon, scraping apple puree into Amyâs mouth.
When seeing Amyâs smile, she was full of love and care.
She liked children a lot.
That realization suddenly made Ellisâs temper flare up.
He didnât have the ability to give her a childâŠ
Ellisâs face suddenly darkened as he strode right up to her. âMary, are you having a good time here?â
Mary first felt a shadow cast beside her, and immediately the manâs icy voice rang out, startling her.
She turned her head and, upon seeing Ellis, she promptly stood up. âWhat are you doing here?â
Ellis scoffed. âOf course, I came to see how my wife is enjoying herself out here!â
Mary listened to his sarcastic tone with her eyes cast down, and she remained silent.
Again with that attitudeâŠ
Ellis felt an indescribable anger rising within him. He suddenly grabbed Maryâs chin, forcing her to look up at him. âMary, tell me, do you think itâs a joke that I donât have the ability to give you a child?!â
Mary felt her chin was almost going to crack in his grip as she endured the pain and said, âIâve never thought that way.â
âThen why are you keeping this bastard to humiliate me?!â
Ellisâs eyes were unconsciously filled with tears. âIâve already told you about my situation, yet you still insist that the child is mine⊠Well, I conceded, and now you put on such a wronged expression!â
He felt an extreme sense of aggrievement.
He was forced to wear the cuckoldâs cap because he demeaned himself and because he couldnât stand to see Mary getting whipped, so even when he knew it was the Davis familyâs ploy to force him, he admitted it in the end.
And what was the result?
Mary didnât show the slightest bit of gratitude; on the contrary, she became increasingly distant and cold toward him, even demanding a divorce on their wedding night!
Was he really that easy to bully?
Hearing his words, Mary slowly looked up at him. âEllis, did you come here to say all that?â
Ellis paused briefly, then stubbornly said, âOf course not. If Uncle Olsen hadnât told me to pick you up, do you think I would have come?!â
He quickly let go of her, pushing Mary slightly backward.
Then, he took out a handkerchief as if he found his own fingers dirty. He quickly wiped them off.
Every one of his movements twisted Maryâs heart fiercelyâŠ
He despised her.
Yes, he misunderstood her as a promiscuous woman, and that was why he despised herâŠ
This realization made Maryâs face turn pale.
She gave a bitter smile. âI stayed outside because I thought you didnât want to see meâŠâ
âI indeed do not want to see you.â Ellis stared at her as if wanting to attack her with the most vicious language possible to alleviate the pain in his heart. âHowever, as a newlywed couple, not living together doesnât reflect well on Olsen Groupâs shares. As the future family head of the Olsen family, every word and action of mine represents the Olsen family. If journalists find out you live here, how would they spin our story?â
Mary hesitated.
Ellis then spoke again. âWill you go back to the Olsen family obediently, or do we divorce right now?â
How could Mary possibly want a divorce on the spot? Keira still needed her to be married to find her motherâŠ
Mary gripped her fingers tightly, feeling a surge of humiliation. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. âFine, Iâll go back tonight.â
Ellis stared at her for a long while before finally snorting coldly and turning to leave. Just as he reached the doorway, he suddenly saw Keira and Lewis returning, both standing there.
Keira looked at him with cold eyes, while Lewis stood behind her, looking very obedientâŠ
Ellis suddenly felt somewhat embarrassed. He didnât speak and walked past Keira.
But Keira suddenly said, âYou learned about todayâs kindergarten incident, didnât you?â
âYes.â Ellis thought she was talking about Christina and said, âDonât worry, my third uncle also knows about it and will punish Christina and James to give you an explanation.â
At this point, he paused. âJamesâs punishment will probably be heavier, and as for Christina, the decision might be to expel her because the Olsen family has their true âtreasured girlâ nowâŠâ
Keira, hearing these words, showed no reaction and still gazed at him. âThatâs not what I mean. I mean, some people clearly have a disease but insist they donât. While othersâŠâ
She scanned Ellis up and down, lowering her eyes. âSome people clearly donât have a disease, yet insist they do!â
Ellis was perplexed. He frowned, his face turning unpleasant.
Keira slowly said, âIâve researched patients with oligospermia and azoospermia; they often canât perform in bed. Some even need medication to cope, but from what I heard from Mary, youâre alright in that department.â
Ellis was shocked. His face flushed immediately. âDonât spew such obscene words here! Lewis, wonât you control her?!â
Lewis said, âAre you impotent?â
Ellis was dumbfounded. Furious, he left with a flick of his sleeve!
Ellis angrily got into the car, and once seated in the back, he finally calmed down, the embarrassment and anger on his face gone. Oligospermia and azoospermia⊠not able to perform?
But the two times with Mary, he was very capable! SoâŠ
Ellis suddenly furrowed his brows and looked at the driver. âTake me to the hospital.â
The driver asked, âMr. Ellis, to which hospital?â
Ellis pondered for a moment, dismissing his own familyâs hospital, and finally decided on an international one. The driver immediately drove there.
Ellis secretly entered the hospital this time, disguising his identity. After sampling on the equipment, he personally handed it to the testing doctor. He intended to monitor the whole process today to ensure that the results were beyond doubt this time!
