Conquest Game: The Aloof Husband is Dangerous!-Chapter 166 - 154: Is He Really That Annoying? (2)

Ruth Leighton was at a loss for words, and after a moment she stammered, "Do you think I don’t know? Every month you transfer money into her bank account..."

Victor Turner shouted sternly, "Enough! Laura is my daughter, and giving her pocket money is something I should do as her father. Do you think she’s like you all? All these years, she hasn’t spent a penny of the money I gave her!"

Ruth Leighton was instantly delighted, "Honey, if she doesn’t use it, then consider it as me paying her back, would you say that’s alright..."

Victor Turner nearly exploded with anger, "Ruth Leighton! Do you even know what shame is? That money rightfully belongs to Laura, and you have the nerve to say you’ll give it back to her? Your daughter is a princess, and my daughter is not even equal to a maid?"

Actually, all these years, he was well aware of his wife’s harshness towards his eldest daughter, but he had always turned a blind eye. After all, deep down, he also subconsciously rejected his eldest daughter, always feeling she was the daughter of a woman he didn’t love...

It wasn’t until recently, when it was revealed that his eldest daughter had been sold by his wife six years ago for a year, that he realized just how biased he had been, caring for his eldest daughter less than a thousandth of the care for his younger daughter.

To the extent that he had no idea of the things his wife did behind his back...

Ruth Leighton had never expected her husband to speak to her in such a vicious tone, hastily squeezing out a few tears, "Honey, Phoebe is your daughter too! I also want to love Laura, but she just won’t give me a chance. Every time she sees me, she’s cold as ice, as if I’m an outsider, as if I’m the one who usurped her place, as if I killed her mother..."

Victor Turner yelled impatiently, "Enough! Just because I haven’t managed things for years doesn’t mean I don’t know anything. People must have principles! Previous matters can be let go, but the five million must be returned to Laura, it doesn’t belong to you!"

Ruth Leighton was dumbfounded; since when did her husband start defending Laura so fiercely?

This was very unfavorable for her!

"Honey, did Laura say something to you? Don’t just listen to her side of the story! She..."

Ruth Leighton’s words were cut off by a cold glare from Victor Turner, scaring her into swallowing the rest of her words.

Phoebe Turner was just about to chime in, but her father scolded her, "Don’t think I don’t know about the things you’ve done! Laura being surrounded by reporters at the airport, wasn’t that revealed by you two?"

Ruth Leighton quickly shook her head, "No! Honey, you’ve really misunderstood, it has nothing to do with us."

Victor Turner snorted, "Nothing to do with you? Too scared to admit? Someone has already called and told me, see for yourself!"

Only then did Ruth Leighton pick up the documents that her husband had tossed onto her when he walked in. It clearly stated that she was the one who leaked the secret, and it said today was the last day to repay the debt. After midnight tonight, if it’s not repaid, she’d have to sweep the streets to pay it off in the morning...

The document was titled "Final Ultimatum."

After reading it, Ruth Leighton collapsed to the floor, "Honey, this must be Laura’s trick! She deliberately hired someone to scare me!" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Victor Turner was so angry his face turned pale, "You’re really naive!"

Then, he turned and walked out.

After taking a few steps, he turned back and said, "I’ve said all that needs to be said. If you still don’t realize your mistakes, sweeping the streets doesn’t seem like a bad idea!"

Hearing such cruel words from her husband, Ruth Leighton felt as if her whole world had turned gray, and she sat on the floor crying her heart out...

Jason Hawthorne arranged for Laura Quincy to stay in the most luxurious suite at Sunstone Hospital, with a bedroom, guest room, study, kitchen, bathroom, and balcony all included.

It was absolutely VIP treatment!

Laura Quincy didn’t want to stay in such a luxurious suite, "Just arrange a regular hospital room for me. I don’t want to owe you any favors."

Jason Hawthorne, of course, refused, "I precisely want you to owe me a favor."

He just said that when he was met with a cold stare from Laura Quincy, and he immediately changed his tune, "You got hurt because of me, and I said I would take full responsibility for you, so during the hospitalization, you have to follow my arrangements."

Laura Quincy realized she couldn’t reason with him; this guy was too domineering!

Completely over the top!

"I’ll cooperate with you, but I have a few conditions."

"Of course! I’ll meet all your conditions."

"A man’s words must count, a man who breaks his promises is the most shameless! My first condition is that I don’t want to see you during the hospitalization, not for even a second!"

Laura Quincy spoke with firm resolve, seemingly leaving no room for discussion.

Jason Hawthorne was briefly stuck but then justified, "That condition is impossible to fulfill. Twinkle has already learned about your hospitalization, and he’s insisting on visiting you. As his legal guardian, I must stay by his side."
