Chapter 35 The Punishment (7)
The people around me began to talk, and many of them even held up their cell phones to take videos, and I knew Emma was determined to ruin my reputation and screw up the store that I had worked so hard to build for so many years!
"Don’t hide. You don’t even know how many mistresses are your bosses! See for yourselves!" George played that video again from the last sneak peek.
I completely exploded, "I can’t believe you guys are so desperate! You think I don’t know about your affairs?"
Emma raised her chin, " Norman, cut the bullshit! You’re trying hard to defend your mistress. What lies are you going to make up again?"
"Yes! My sister cooks for you daily, which is how you repay her. Aren’t you afraid of the wrath of God?" George shouted, getting more and more agitated.
The tirades continued; Emma even encouraged the people around me to trash my store!
I couldn’t contain the anger in my heart, and I couldn’t wait to dismantle the two aggressive people in front of me!
Emma, it’s evident that you cheated on me first. Not only did you get pregnant with someone else’s child and force me to raise it, but you also had your foot in multiple boats and slandered me in return! Don’t think I don’t know you have a two-year-old son outside!"
Emma’s eyes widened, and her body took a few steps backward, nearly falling. George held her up.
But even then, Emma is still sophomoric: "What, son? Norman, stop making baseless accusations! I’ve never had a child. Stop throwing mud at me!"
"Yeah? Do you want to see it before you say it?" I brought out a little boy from the back, and as soon as he saw Emma, he jumped on me and kept calling out for his mommy.
Emma wrenched the little boy’s hand away from him with force and pushed him to the ground, "I don’t know him, stop calling me that!"
The boy sat on the floor and wailed, and I had the shopgirl take him out.
" Emma, aren’t you tired of pretending? I already know about all the things you’ve done! You let George hide your son in the basement, and you are out there having a good time. Do you think any of this is fair to anyone?"
The abuse around them suddenly stopped, and all eyes shifted toward Emma again. Emma shook her head desperately. Sensing the situation spiraling out of control, George grabbed Emma’s arm and fled in a panic!
The next day, Melika suddenly came to my door and slapped me without saying, " Norman, you beast! How dare you slander my daughter in public! I think you’re tired of living!"
I rubbed my hot face, "Slander? Would you like to ask her if it’s true?"
Melika called Emma over, and Emma was sobbing before she could speak.
"Mom, you can do it for me! Norman didn’t care about me, and now everyone out there is pointing fingers at me, and I don’t know how I will live !"
I sneered. Did Emma think a Melika could scare me? The two were cut from the same cloth—neither had any right to accuse me! I haven’t wronged any of them!
I placed all the videos and photos on the table for Melika to see for herself!
Who knows Melika suddenly raised her hand and swept the cell phone on the table to the floor and slapped Emma hard several times, "Asshole! You shameless thing disgraced my face! From now on, don’t say you are my Melika’s daughter!"
