Chapter 18 Adeline Revealed Her Third Brother

"Adeline, do you know that your crippled husband would have put me in a very bad situation?"

"Who does he think he is? How dare he offends Mr. Baker?"

"You are such an unlucky person! You are a walking disaster and bring no good to the family as long as you are alive!"

Adeline looked at Jacob, who was in madness with a blank face and couldn't help sneering.

Jacob was so annoyed by the sneer. He shouted, "What are you laughing at?"

"I am laughing at you. A man who is incompetent and couldn't manage his business, and blames a woman instead."

"I am laughing at you for not finding a scientific way to run and manage your business, but blaming the fault on superstition!"

"Jacob, look at you. You are an able-bodied person, but you are worse than many people in this world who are unable to walk."

"This is probably when human beings evolved, you only got your legs evolved but not your brain!"

"You..." Jacob raised his hand angrily.

Before his hand dropped, a man's cold threatening voice was heard.

"If you don't want to keep your hand anymore, make the move."

Jacob turned his head in fright and saw Steffen pushing Curtis towards him.

Curtis was sitting in a wheelchair, his posture was indifferent, but his expression was extremely cold. He looked like a beast lying dormant in the grass, ready to jump out and tear his prey apart at any time.

Jacob panicked from being stared at. He didn't dare to drop his hands on her, but it was also embarrassing for him to withdraw them hastily.

He stared at Curtis fiercely and said, "What? Are you trying to beat me? I'm your brother-in-law! According to your status in the family, you still have to call me brother-in-law!"

Then, Jacob walked a few steps toward Curtis and continued, "What makes you think that as a handicapped, you can yell at me? Let me tell you, you have offended Mr. Baker, and you have no idea what will happen to you tomorrow!"

Suddenly, Jacob smiled as if thinking of something.

"Only a useless person like you will treat Adeline as a treasure! It seems that you don't know Adeline's secret yet, right? What about me telling you?"

Adeline knew what Jacob was going to say, and her expression immediately changed.

Seeing Adeline's expression change, Jacob smiled triumphantly and looked at Curtis seriously.

"You probably don't know. The fortune teller said that the month of her birth is unlucky. People who are born in that month will take away all the wealth from their family and their husband's family!"

"Besides, she is such an unlucky person. Whoever gets close to her, will end up badly!" Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

"Look, when she was just born, she almost caused the Burton family to go bankrupt. Not long after she was born, my grandma passed away!"

"You just have to wait to see how she is going to ruin your family!"

"Jacob! Shut up! Are you still my family?" Adeline pushed him violently and angrily.

Other people would defend their family members' shortcomings, but her family members were always criticizing her.

He even said such things in front of her newlywed husband.

Didn't he do that to make her have a hard time in the future?

Jacob was being pushed away hard. He hit his head against the wall and raised his hand again in annoyance.

Coincidently, a familiar female voice was heard at the same time.

"Jacob, what are you doing?"

Jacob followed the voice and saw his fiancée, Heather, and his mother-in-law looking at him.

Jacob quickly put down his hands, changed his expression, and greeted them.

"Hello, Mrs. Roti."

As Jacob spoke, he looked at Heather gently and asked, "Why are you here?"

Heather frowned and looked at him, "What were you doing just now?"

Jacob sighed with an awkward look. He turned sideways, looked at the two people behind him, and explained, "Oh, it's a family scandal. My sister and my brother-in-law beat someone, and I was just lecturing her, telling her and her disabled husband not to cause any trouble to the family."

After Mrs. Roti heard his words, she looked at Jacob and saw Curtis at the back, who was sitting in a wheelchair. He had an extraordinary physical appearance and a strong aura. She knew that he wasn't a nobody.

He was even more handsome than Jacob!

It was a pity that his legs...

Mrs. Roti nodded to Curtis in a very well-bred manner, and said politely, "Since we get to meet each other today, why don't we have a meal together?"

After she finished speaking, Jacob's expression changed. He said in a panic, "No... No need. They have to attend to something urgent and they are going to leave."

Adeline immediately reacted. She smiled, walked slowly to Jacob, and asked, "What's wrong? Jacob, are you afraid?"

"What...What am I afraid of?" Jacob's face turned pale, he gritted his teeth and stared at Adeline, "What exactly do you want?"

"What?" With a gentle smile on Adeline's face, she said calmly, "Don't you like meddling in other people's marriages? Then, I will meddle in yours today too. So, you can have a taste of it. How does it sound?"

Jacob staggered back a few steps, and Adeline took two steps closer.

"Aren't you think that I'm not good enough for Logan, which Viola is the best fit? Therefore, you go all out to set me up!"

"Well, I find that you aren't a good match for Ms. Roti. So, I will tell her your true color too."

"Jacob, don't hate me. I'm doing this for your own good!"

"After all, people with different core values will have no happiness being together and can't have a future together."

"Even if you change your behavior to coax Ms. Roti, it won't last long since you are having such a distorted view!"

"You are a coward! Just like what Dad has said. Whenever you face failure, you will show your true colors!"

"You won't be able to pretend for too long in front of Ms. Roti!"

Adeline eyes turned slightly red. She gritted her teeth and stared at Jacob while she was talking. She wished that she could return all the pain he imposed on her before!

"Shut up! Adeline shut up!" Jacob was angry and scared at the same time.

He was angry that Adeline said he was pretending in front of Heather, but he was also afraid. It was the first time he saw Adeline being so out of control.

Jacob took a deep breath, and warned Adeline, "If you dare to slander me today, I will make you never be able to return to the Burton family again! Mind my words!"

As soon as he finished his sentence, Curtis said lightly, "It's fine that we can't go back to the Burton family anymore. We have our own home now. Right, Adeline?"

Adeline felt warmth suddenly, and she immediately became more confident after getting Curtis's encouragement.

She looked at Mrs. Roti and Heather. She said politely, "Mrs. Roti, Heather, I don't think we can have the meal together, but I have a few words for you."

"Please," Heather said without much emotion, making it hard for people to know her thoughts.

"Okay." Adeline nodded, "As I said just now, I want to break your marriage engagement with him. Because Jacob meddled in my marriage previously, I want him to suffer what he deserves. I want to take revenge on him!"

"But, Ms. Roti, I don't want to hurt you. Therefore, I would like to warmly remind you that what I am going to say next may affect the relationship between the two of you. May I know do you still want me to continue or not?"

"Yes!" Heather responded.

That made Jacob completely anxious and quickly stood between the two of them. He started to coax Heather in a gentle voice.

"Baby, I'll tell you when we are home. It's very complicated. Don't listen to my sister's nonsense. She admitted it herself. She just wanted to take revenge on me."

Heather vigorously pushed Jacob away. She looked at Adeline and said, "As long as what you tell is the truth, I want to hear it!"

"Okay!" Adeline didn't hesitate and continued, "To put it simply, Jacob wants to get the contract for a project and needs approval from Mr. Baker."

"Mr. Baker is 48 years old this year. He has just divorced and has a child. Jacob gave me away to Mr. Baker without even asking my opinion."

"He led me to Mr. Baker's house and allowed him to sneak into my room to do something inappropriate to me. I smashed the head of Mr. Baker and ran away."

"In the end, Jacob didn't even have a word of consolation. He asked me to apologize to Mr. Baker and let Mr. Baker do anything he wanted to me."

"I have never seen such a cruel brother and such a shameless man! For his own benefit, he betrayed his sister. He used a woman!"

"Ms. Roti, I think you shouldn't get married to such a person! Because marrying the wrong person will ruin a woman's life! If you still want to continue your engagement with Jacob, just forget my words."

Heather looked at Jacob with a calm expression after listening.

"Okay, she's finished talking. Now, it's your turn to explain it."
