Chapter 297 - Three-sixty degree turnaround.

And as she was trying to take a breather from the first problem, the more difficult and deadly one came over.

And this time around, there was no solution to it; she was definitely finished this time!

"He is your son!" the old lady insisted while staring between her son and her daughter-in-law.

She glanced at her daughter-in-law with the look that read, 'say something.'

The man followed his mother's look to his wife. Then he gave her a fierce gaze.

The woman shivered in fear. She was already standing close to the pit she had dug for herself. All that was left was for her to jump into it. There was no way she could be saved unless she died before jumping into the pit because if she remains alive, it wouldn't be favorable for her. She would have preferred that she died of a heart attack with her heart that was already hurting from beating too fast, rather than staying alive to her unknown fate in her husband's hands.

Looking at her mother-in-law, she really felt like telling lies, and only that could save her from the old lady.

Meanwhile, looking at her husband, neither lies nor truth could save her. But then, if she told the truth, it would be two against one, that it, her mother-in-law, and husband against her.

But it would also be a waste of time lying to her mother-in-law because her husband had the evidence of her lies and unfaithfulness, which was the DNA Test.

So the earlier she said the truth, the better for her.

"Is he my son?!" the man asked her in a firm tone, with looks that could kill in nanoseconds.

The woman shivered while her daughter slid to the ground in tears.

As for the son that just regained consciousness, he was just looking at them without an inkling of what was going on.

The old lady stared at her daughter-in-law and called her by her name while saying to her in fear, "..... Answer him!"

"He.....he.....is...is...not....." the woman managed to say before the old woman gave her a resounding slap.

"What nonsense are you saying? Are you drunk? Are you telling us a joke at this serious hour? Does it look like we are in a movie scene to you?!" the old woman questioned in anger.

"Mo.....mother, I'm sorry that I disappointed you," the woman cried out as she held unto the side of her cheek that was slapped.

The old lady's bones became tired and began to vibrate. So the two nurses by the side immediately came to help her to a seat when they noticed her condition, and since they were not currently doing anything.

When they wanted to interrupt them and remind them to keep their voices down because they were in the hospital, the man gave them a sharp look, so they just had to keep quiet and watch over the patient that just came back to consciousness.

"Mother, it's too early for you to react this way. But you are free because it will not stop me from taking any decision. Have you see what you forced me to get married to?" the man asked while staring at his mother angrily.

The old woman didn't respond but began to cry instead. And as the old woman cried, her daughter-in-law cried more.

"I don't want to hear your voice!" the man said, pointing to his wife in anger.

The woman tried to shut her mouth, but it wasn't possible.

So what she received was another searing slap.

"I said I don't want to hear your voice, it disgusts me!" the man shouted in anger after giving her a hard slap.

The woman cried louder as she was now holding unto both cheeks.

The man became extremely furious and raised his hands to hit her, both the two nurses that were present in the room held him back.

Seeing how furious her son was, the old woman began to plead for herself, "Son, am...am very sorry. I-I did what I thought was best for you."

"You did what you thought was best for me?" the man asked in ridicule, and the old lady nodded in response.

"What about what I thought was best for me? Did you, in any way, really consider it before forcing this Queen of hell on me? Have you seen what your best is and how it works?" the man asked while gesturing with his hands.

"Am sorry.....am really sorry," the old lady cried harder as she kept on apologizing.

"Look at it now, you are saying sorry to me. Woman! You have ruined my life! Your sorry doesn't mean anything to me, because it cannot resolve what is happening!" the man roared in frustration.

"Hus... Hus..."

"Is it my son you are calling or another man?" the old lady asked as she threw herself on her daughter-in-law and began pulling her hair.

Thanks to the nurses who were there, even if they were not doing their duties as their profession pertains, they were at least separating fights and reducing violence risks.

The young lady, who had been crying since, ran out when she saw her 'grandmother' and mother, fighting. She couldn't take the shocking news any longer, and she also didn't know how to face the situation.

The real a.d.u.l.ts didn't know how to and don't want to adjust to reality, so how could she adjust to it?.

Her whole life had just been completely turned around, a total three-sixty degree (360°) spin.

Even when she left, nobody saw her leaving, nor cared to watch over her.

"If you say something again, you will see what will happen to you. You don't have the right to talk now. You have lost it due to your shameless act," the old lady said authoritatively. And when she saw that her daughter-in-law was being obedient, she scoffed and continued, happy that she had succeeded in subduing her. Before she continued with her speech.

"I did you a favor by getting you married to my son.....
