“Why are you commenting on my Instagram? How do you expect people to react when you talk like that about Hudson?”
“You’re getting more and more petty, jealous over the smallest things. I only said that to get closer to my brother-in-law so we can have a child soon.”
Soon after, my mother-in-law burst into the house, angry and shouting. “Raline is younger than you, yet she knows how to look at the bigger picture. You’ve wasted thirty years of your life; it’s no wonder you’re destined to be a nobody.”
“Our Leighton Family helped you become a vice president, gave you honor and status, yet you’re still not satisfied and now want to ruin Raline Leighton’s plans.”
“Listen to me, if Hudson turns away from Raline because of you, I’ll never forgive you.”
I looked at my mother-in-law in disbelief. This was the elder I had always respected, now insulting and scolding me with harsh words.
Finally, I gave up completely and quietly handed her the divorce papers.
“If I’m so useless, then let Raline sign them. I won’t stand in the way of her big dream to revive the Leighton Family business.”
