Chapter 28: 28:Crack In Family[2]
Gwen's face was hit by a large force and she stumbled onto the ground with a sullen face.
Her eyes became moist and red due to being hit as she looked at the man who hit her.
"AUSTIN!How dare you hit her? She is my daughter? When even I haven't dared to hit her so how dare you?"Irina got up from his seat staring coldly at Austin.
Her heart wrenched in pain seeing Gwen's sullen face with a slap mark.
Austin suddenly felt goosebumps all over his back and swallowed his saliva seeing Irina's darkened gaze.
Meanwhile, Gwen got up and clapped.
"Nice acting, Mom!"
"Great acting. Try to appease me by playing bad cop, good cop."
Gwen wiped off her tears with a grievous look and turned around to leave with parting words.
"I will never accept a dick head like you as my father. From today, I won't have a mother."
"Gwen, where are you going?"Irina appeared behind Gwen and her arms attempted to stop.
Her eyes were brimmed with tears as she faced the consequences of her actions.
For one wrong decision, she finally had been torn apart.
"Leave me. You aren't a mother. Since you dared to throw your son for a darned outsider, you won't even hesitate to sell your daughter for money. Who knows if you just kill us for him."
Gwen shook her hand and rushed out quickly.
"Don't come looking for me. Just wait until Sister comes back and I will see how you will explain this to her."
"Gwen, at least listen to me. Your brother is with your father in the Befort family Elysium. It was Austin's idea to make Leon appear dead as knowing your love for him, you wouldn't hesitate to follow him. So, to keep you here we lied after the divorce. I just didn't want to lose you but I know I am wrong so please forgive me..."
Irina screamed, breaking into tears but there was no one to hear her pleas.
Generally, such a situation wouldn't have occurred as Irina was blindly in love with Austin but the moment she came in contact with Leon, the protagonist's effect on her was neutralized by Leon's neutral halo making her look back at things.
It was only now did she understood how cruel she was for choosing someone whom she met coincidentally over her son whom she carried for 9 months.
"I was blind. Gwen was right, I am just a bitch."
Irina's eyes became moist and her head started spinning around.
Austin tried to support her but he was pushed back again.
"Get out..."
"What?"Austin shouted back in shock.
"Get out of my house and go to that whore where you spend your day finding solace"
"Get out of my house now. I don't want to see that face of yours."Irina screamed angrily.
In her investigation, she found out just how Austin used Wood's name for his benefit and had already affairs with many women.
Worse of all, one of her friends from a big family was also with him and they acted intimately quite brazenly.
"Maybe my son was right. You really thought of me as bitch in heat who only thinks of dick. Despite all the affairs, I was prepared to compromise but the moment you hit my daughter and spoke about my son it's done. "Irina's dark hair rose and a tremendous shockwave erupted from her hitting Austin who was thrown like a rag doll."
"From now, you are nothing to me."
With this, an enormous rift was formed between Irina and Austin, one can never be mended.
She had given in to her impulse once but she won't now. Moreover, who knows how many women Austin had hidden from her?
If Austin's halo still held an effect, no matter what crimes he committed and even if he killed Irina's parents, daughters, or whole family he would still be forgiven alas...
Pinning all the blame on Leon, Austin already made plans to get rid of him but little did he know that Leon who was like a bug in his eyes would soon become his worst nightmare.
