Dangerous Love: You Are My One and Only Bride novel Chapter 656

Jackson’s sudden roar frightened Tiffany into dropping the tissue in her hand. This was the first time he had ever yelled at her. She felt aggrieved.

Atticus steadied himself by holding onto a table and forced a smile, “I’m fine, Tiffany. He’s not wrong. I don’t deserve it. I shouldn’t have dragged the Wests into this. This is my problem. I’m a steady man; I will deal with this properly. I haven’t done anything wrong…”

Tiffany believed that Atticus was telling the truth. She simply couldn’t relate the man in front of her with the word ‘unbearable.’ “I believe you… Shall we go to the hospital? Please don’t be angry at Jackson. He loses control of his strength when he’s mad…”

Atticus shook his head, “I’m fine. He did control his strength. I’m alright. I won’t die. Stay with your mother-in-law. Tell her that I’ve never done anything to betray her. My only mistake was in managing this and causing everyone in the city to find out.”

He had just spoken when Jackson lunged at Tiffany, dragging her away, “What are you doing? Do you pity him? Don’t you know your place? Get back to the office!”

Tiffany never had a mild-mannered temperament to begin with. Now, she, an innocent bystander, was suffering from casualties too. She flew into a rage and slapped Jackson right across the face, “He’s your father! I understand how you feel. I might even be convinced that you’ve done nothing wrong. But you cannot force me into your position. I am your fianceé; I should be calling him ‘dad’. I have nothing against him. This is my responsibility! Am I supposed to just let you beat him to death, instead of smoothing things over? Calm the heck down! Scream at me again and we’re through!”

Summer forcibly dragged Jackson downstairs, “You jerk. Who are you yelling at? Tiffie’s done nothing wrong. How are you any different from your father? Violence is still violence, no matter the degree of it. No man in our family should ever scream at his wife. If one slap isn’t enough, I’ll give you another! Why can’t we just talk things out? Give your father a chance to speak, for goodness sake!”
