Chapter 206 - 206: Couple’s Joint Property
Alex nodded and replied lazily, “Hello.”
Amelia stuck her head out and looked at her. “Auntie Ashley, are you working?”
There was a smile on her face. She had changed drastically from the past. She was confident and valiant, and she seemed to be glowing. She picked Amelia up and placed her on the seat beside her. She pointed at the computer and said, “I’m writing a novel.”
Amelia was curious. “Does it mean writing a story?
Ashley smiled. “Yes.”
Amelia understood. She looked at the computer screen, but unfortunately, she couldn’t understand a word. She hadn’t gone to kindergarten yet, so she couldn’t read!
Just as she was explaining the plot of the story she had written to Amelia, a man came in angrily and slammed the documents on the coffee table.
Amelia looked up and saw an uncle with a dark face standing in front of her. He glared at Ashley and asked, “Who is she?! Who is he?!” He first pointed at Amelia and then at Alex.
Alex moved his finger, and the coffee shop business card stuck in the booth immediately flew out, smashing the man’s finger to the side.
The man was in pain. He clenched his fingers and glared at Alex. “You!”
Alex looked up and swept his gaze over. His eyes were cold and his aura was oppressive.
“Be careful talking to me,” Alex said. “I have a bad temper. I don’t like others pointing fingers at me and my daughter.”
The man was so frightened that he did not dare to make a sound. He could only turn his head aggrievedly and vent his anger on her. “Tell me, who are they!”
Ashley frowned. She first apologized to Alex and placed Amelia in his arms. “I’m sorry, I’ll settle my family matters first.”
Under normal circumstances, Alex should have brought Amelia away at this moment, but seeing that Amelia did not want to leave, he crossed his legs and leaned lazily on the sofa.
Ashley pulled the dark man aside and said angrily, “Are you done fooling around? That’s my friend!” This man was none other than Ashley’s husband.
Ashley’s husband sneered. “Friend? I think you’re an adulterer! I was wondering why you’re so strong now. It turns out that you’ve found yourself a next family. Ashley, do you have any shame?!”
Ashley was so angry that her face turned red. These words were too
unpleasant!
“Watch your mouth!” She said coldly. After saying that, she turned around and wanted to leave. Unexpectedly, her husband stopped her and asked, “Wait, did you sell the house?
Ashley was expressionless. “It’s my own house. Whether I sell it or not is my freedom. What does it have to do with you?
Ashley’s husband was furious. “How is it unrelated to me? That house is mine too!”
Ashley said disdainfully, “Yours? How do you prove that the house is yours too? Did you make a down payment or pay for the monthly expenses? Or did you bear the family expenses?
“You!” Her husband was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
At the sofa booth, Alex and Amelia finished the ice cream. Alex ordered a fruit platter and ate the fruit while watching Ashley and her husband quarrel. The two of them ate the watermelon at the same time.
Alex: “Tsk tsk.”
Amelia imitated him. “Tsk, tsk, tsk.”
Ashley’s husband was very angry, but what could anger solve? He could only suppress his anger and say to Ashley, “Alright, alright. I can’t be bothered to argue with you. You’re competing with me, right? You even sold your house. You didn’t discuss such a big matter with me. Aren’t you afraid of being deceived? By the way, I heard that you bought a villa, right? Give me the house key.”
Ashley crossed her arms. “Why should I give you the key? Don’t you like to live with your mother? Then stay in the countryside. I’ve made it clear to you today. My money and the house I bought have nothing to do with you!’
At this moment, Ashley’s mother-in-law had come over at some point. She shouted, “Why does it have nothing to do with my son? You’re married. The money you earn is the joint property of the husband and wife! Be it the house or the money, half of it belongs to my son.”
Ashley’s mother-in-law glared at Ashley. She was about to die of anger! They had waited in the countryside for so long, but Ashley did not come to beg them! Instead, she packed their things and threw them back! They heard that she even bought a villa. She really did not listen to advice at all!
“I’m exhausted from the journey. Hurry up and give us the key. I’m going back to rest.” Her mother-in-law reached out to her..
