My Alleged Husband

Chapter 480 - 459: Really?_1

"You’ve done so many things, and now coming to me claiming you have a clear conscience, don’t you find that ironic? Do you not have a clear understanding of the things you’ve done within yourself? You’ve hurt those who care about you, and you will never receive the most sincere heart from anyone for the rest of your life. Even if others give their all for you, in your eyes, it’s never worth a second glance, because you don’t believe in them. You treat their sincerity towards you as if it were water flowing by, never taking it to heart."

"As a junior, what right do you have to speak to me like that? Are you not afraid of divine retribution? Can you really live with yourself thinking this way? You know very well what you’ve done yourself, so how can you talk about me? No matter what, I will always be your elder, a fact you cannot change in this lifetime. As long as you are with my son, you must call me ’Dad.’ Since you disrespect me so much, why should you be with my precious son?"

"I know all of you look down on me just because I am a commoner’s daughter, not a wealthy young lady who can bring benefits to your family, so you repeatedly hurt me. I can endure it all because I love your son. I can give him everything I have. I pretend that none of this has happened even though you’ve treated me this way. But I still can’t understand why you would hurt me. Does hurting me bring you any benefits? Will hurting me bring your son back home? I think deep down, you understand the wrongs you have committed, things nobody could easily forgive. Yet, Grandpa and your son have chosen to forgive you time and again. But you still repeatedly target me for harm. Are you aware that even the kindest hearts can be worn down? You never reflect on the wrongs you’ve done, always quick to point fingers at others. You think everyone else is in the wrong, that they have wronged you, but do you realize how despicable your actions are? How can you repeatedly blame others for your mistakes, making them bear the consequences? Always trying to escape, do you think that’s right?"

Zhang Zhentian, for the first time, found herself at a loss for words against her daughter-in-law, who had such a way with words. Left with no other option, she could only stand there fuming and say indignantly, "Yes, we are exactly who you say we are. It’s not just because you’re a commoner, but because you’ve brought disaster to my son. Do you understand the consequences of your choices? You, being with my son, have caused our family’s relationships to become so tense, no longer harmonious. Do you think that’s right? As a junior, should you be treating your elders in such a manner? Is your tone of voice appropriate for a junior? You don’t even regard yourself as my daughter-in-law, so why should we treat you as one? Your actions are nothing but self-deception. Deep down, you know what you do makes people laugh, causing heartache, yet no one has spoken those words because they see you as family. But you, you’ve never seen yourself as part of the family, you’re just selfish. You think by marrying into a wealthy family you can become the young madam, but you have no idea the things you’ve done mean you will never be worthy of being part of a prominent family. With your attitude, what makes you think you have any connection to a wealthy family, or that you have any right to spend a lifetime with my son? You’re just bullying my handsome son, who has many girls chasing after him. You’ve caused all those girls to give up on him, to detest you. They think my son is heartless, and you never consider the consequences, while I watch everything unfolding step by step..."

"No matter what you say, I will never believe you again because every word you speak lacks sincerity, always with ulterior motives aimed at me, only to make me leave your son. Now let me tell you, no matter what, I will never leave my husband. He is the love of my life. No matter what he becomes, whether rich or poor, he is my husband, and I am his for life. I can wander the world with him. I can give up everything for him, can you? Even if you’re his father, you once gave up on your freedom and abandoned your son. Now, what right do you have to speak to me like this? If there is a question of right, then you are even less entitled than I am. At least over the years, I have always been genuinely by his side. I have never despised him, nor chosen to be with him for anything else. My love for him is pure and undoubted, not mixed with anything or any purpose. I just simply want to be with him, because he is the best man in the world. For him, I can give up everything; he is so real, so kind, and so genuine, yet you’ve hurt such a good man."

"You speak as if you’ve never hurt him. Do you think your actions are unknown to others if you don’t talk about them? You should have a count in your heart of what you’ve done. You will never know, but I’ve always known everything. Yet, I chose to stay silent, to have leverage over you, to threaten you, do you understand? Sometimes I can’t comprehend why you did those things and what benefits you expected to gain. Don’t you know that such actions hurt every person who loves you? You treat their sincerity as something you can disdainfully trade on. You always think it doesn’t matter how well others treat you because, in the end, you will face the consequences."
