Will You Marry Me, My Ex-Wife? novel Chapter 2768

"Go figure. The men in the Howard family are all the same; you're all dependent on women!"

Tina smirked as she stared at Thomas coldly. Her words were potent with mockery as she continued, "Howard Group is at its glory now because your father had gotten help from your mother. I thought it was different for you when you found yourself a village girl, but it's still the same. You need this woman to come to protect you now? How amusing!"

Her words were downright insulting.

Thomas furrowed his brow. As he was about to retort, Yannie interjected, with her arms wide open in defending Thomas, "Hey, are you listening to yourself? You insulting Thomas like that also means you're insulting your husband and your son. Aren't your husband and son from the same family as Thomas? Are you saying your son, Dan Howard, is also a man who relies on women too?"

Yannie's face and tone were cold when she said that.

Tina never expected such sharp remarks from Yannie. She was stunned and did not know how to counter—

"Come in here, all of you," rang the frail yet firm voice of an elder man, interrupting the fight between Tina and Yannie.

"Your father heard everything!" Tina snorted as she gave Thomas a deadly stare. "Go in there if you have the nerve and let your father be the judge!"

She knew Senior Howard adored her for most of his life and had been on her side too. Thomas was just some rebellious son who got kicked out of the house and had never spoken to his father for several years.

If Senior Howard was the judge, she was the clear winner. Knowing this, she would want Senior Howard to force Thomas to apologize to her son.

She thus turned and entered the ward haughtily.

Thomas narrowed his eyes when he saw how prideful Tina was and followed her into the ward.

"You know Dan has always been my precious son. I took care of him and doted on him since he was born. When has he ever suffered such pain before? He was next door and cried terribly because of the pain. I only wanted Thomas to apologize to Dan, but he's so stubborn. He even said Dan deserved it… You have to help me and Dan!"

While she was talking, she used the corner of her eyes to peek at Thomas and Yannie pleasingly as though sure things would go her way.

Yannie bit her lip and grabbed Thomas' hand quietly. "But—"

"Don't say anything for now," interjected Thomas softly before Yannie could finish. He cocked up his head and looked at Senior Howard coldly.

"Tell me what's your take on this," Thomas said.
