Divorce, Please: The Young Master Does Not Love Me-Chapter 154: Business Trip

Una Sullivan did her best to remain calm. She looked at Mika Summers and demanded sharply, "Mika, explain yourself to me. What exactly is going on?"

"Mom, I’m sorry. I know I shouldn’t have hidden this from you and Dad, but I didn’t know how to tell you. I’m married, and I’m one month pregnant now."

"You’re married? And you’re pregnant?" Una Sullivan was so furious she almost fainted on the spot. If Eleanor Bishop hadn’t been there to support her, she surely would have collapsed.

"Um... yes... Mom... I’m sorry..." Seeing her mother’s face pale with rage, Mika kept her head bowed low, admitting her fault.

"After something this huge, do you even see me as your mother anymore?" ’To think she went and got married behind our backs.’

"I’m sorry..."

Mae Lynch couldn’t bear to watch her daughter-in-law get scolded, so she quickly spoke up to defend her. "Ma’am, we share the blame for this, so please don’t be too hard on Mika."

"Ma’am, Mika is my daughter. Are you telling me I can’t discipline her? And another thing, I don’t care if she married your son. Without my consent, this marriage doesn’t count!"

Stung by Una Sullivan’s retort, Mae Lynch’s pride was wounded. Her face fell as she pulled Mika Summers behind her. "Now, that’s not a fair thing to say..." ’She’s already married, which makes her a member of our Grayson Family.’

"How is it not fair? You people secretly snatched my daughter away, and I’m not even allowed to talk about it? Mika Summers, get over here right now."

"Mom... please don’t be like this..."

Una Sullivan snapped furiously, "Are you coming over or not? If you don’t, then from this day forward, you are not to call me ’Mom’ ever again. I have no such daughter!"

Hearing her mother’s cruel words, Mika swallowed her tears. She stepped out from behind her mother-in-law and went to her mother’s side, saying in a choked voice, "Mom... I’m sorry..."

"You’re coming home with me!" Una Sullivan shook off Eleanor Bishop’s hand, grabbed Mika’s, and started dragging her toward the store’s entrance.

As Eleanor Bishop watched her mother-in-law and sister-in-law leave, she offered an awkward explanation. "I’m so sorry, ma’am. My mother-in-law is just livid. Please don’t take it to heart." ’No matter what, this woman is Mika’s mother-in-law. In the end, they’re all supposed to be family.’

Mae Lynch let out a slightly indignant huff and waved over the gawking clerk to settle the bill.

「Two hours later. The Summers’ home.」

When Joseph Summers learned that his daughter had not only gotten secretly married but was also pregnant, he flew into such a rage that he snatched a teacup from the table and hurled it at Mika Summers.

Seeing the cup hurtling toward them, Eleanor Bishop frantically pulled Mika aside, barely dodging it. Her face deathly pale, she said uneasily, "Mom, Dad, please calm down! Wasn’t I in the same boat, pregnant before marriage?" ’At least Mika got a marriage certificate. I still don’t even have one.’

Joseph Summers shot back, dissatisfied, "How is that the same?" ’When Eleanor Bishop got pregnant, it wasn’t our family on the losing end. But with Mika, it’s our precious daughter who’s at a disadvantage... How could that possibly be the same!’ 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

"Mom, Dad, I understand how you’re feeling, but what’s happened has happened. We just have to accept it."

Mika Summers wiped away her tears and gave Eleanor Bishop a grateful look.

Joseph Summers plopped down on the sofa, fuming, and bellowed, "Get that little bastard over here right now!"

"He’s not in Tridell right now. He’s away on a business trip..." Mika answered, lowering her head guiltily.

"A business trip? He knocks you up and then just takes off on a business trip without a word?"
