Chapter 27 Endure At All Cost
Regaining her senses, Savannah trembled in fear, as she didn’t want to remember those painful moments in her life. “Mary, I’ll be downstairs now.” Putting on a pair of snowy white heels, she walked down the stairs hurriedly. She ran across the garden and the balcony toward the main entrance. When she saw the man, she said, “Emmett, sorry for making you wait.” Emmett was standing in front of a champagne luxury car, mesmerized by the beauty of the woman
walking out in a light blue gown with diamond embellishments while her hair was flowing in the air. Savannah panted slightly as she came to the man’s front, noticing that he was staring at her while frozen in place. She guessed he was pretending to be a fool and coughed. “What’s wrong? Is my outfit weird? Can we go out now?” “Nothing. You look good. Get in. “ Emmett continued acting like a fool and opened the car door for her. “Wow! My foolish little brother’s bringing his wife back home?” When they were about to get into the car, Osborn’s mocking voice came from the door. “What do you want?” Savannah shivered as she turned around, glaring at Osborn with hostility, while Emmett put on an innocent face and greeted
his brother. “Hello… Osborn.” Pretending to be deaf, Osborn ignored Emmett and smirked. “I want to do… something with you, but you’re keeping your chastity for a fool like him, and rejected me.” Savannah glared at him in anger. “Stop insulting Emmett! He’s your brother, show him some respect.” Osborn didn’t get angry. Instead, he smiled and challenged, “So what? I can call him as a Retard as I please, and there’s nothing you can do.” Turning to Emmett, he sang, ”Old MacDonald had a farm, E—I—E—I—O. And on that farm he had a hen, E—I—E—I—O…” Savannah’s words dripped
with disdain. “How childish! Emmett, let’s go. Leave this scoundrel behind.” Osborn snickered, “If you have a baby, will the baby be a retard too?” Emmett was clenching his fists secretly, listening to the way he disrespected Savannah. At that moment, he wanted to pin Osborn down and beat him to a pulp to vent his frustration, but his rational thinking stopped him from revealing his true colors. Endure. I must endure it no matter what. Osborn was relentless as he beat Emmett on his chest and asked, “Emmett, do you like the song? Let’s sing together. I’ll teach you.” Burying his hatred dee
p down in his heart, Emmett forced a smile and said, “I like it, and I want to learn.” Savannah rolled her eyes at Osborn and dragged Emmett into the luxury car. “It’s late, and my parents are waiting for us. Emmett, don’t listen to him. He’s bullying you.” “Honey, what is bullying?” Emmett moved into the car and asked while the woman shut the door with a loud bang and instructed, “Drive!” After the luxury car sped away from the Quaker residence,
Emmett’s expression changed from silly to icy while he stayed silent. Sitting beside him, Savannah could feel the anger and hostility emanating from the man, and it was suffocating. Osborn’s behavior had truly angered Emmett. Comparing her own brother with Osborn, they were both rotten to the core. She could empathize with his feelings, but didn’t know how to comfort him. Sitting upright in her seat, she placed her hand on his silently. When she wanted to grip his hand to give him some comfort, he suddenly pulled away and placed his hand on his thigh while sweeping a glance at her.
Whispering in her ear, his voice was icy cold. “I don’t need your sympathy.” Savannah fell silent, as she didn’t feel like doing anything, and turned to look outside the window. Why do I feel like he’s angry at the wrong person? Avery residence. When the car stopped outside the Avery residence, Nina and Sydney were waiting at the door with smiles on their faces. After the driver of the Quaker family opened the car door, Savannah got down from the car leisurely.
Sydney’s smile froze immediately as she couldn’t believe the change the former had undergone after marrying into the Quaker family. Savannah was wearing a dress tailor-made by an international luxury brand that money couldn’t even buy. Thousands of diamonds were sewn on her dress, dazzling under the sunlight. And the accessories she was wearing, from the earrings to the necklace to the bracelet… They were from a valuable jewelry collection. Oh my god! That luster of the bracelet on her wrist… The diamonds must be of top-tier quality from how their color was consistent throughout.
It must be so valuable. Sydney was so envious of Savannah, as every accessory she had was no match for the latter’s bracelet. It was no wonder everyone said that women must marry well. Savannah held Emmett’s arm and walked to their front graciously. “Mom, Sydney, why are you guys standing here? We’ll go in ourselves.” The driver followed behind them while he had his hands full with gifts. Looking at the couple in front of her, Nina was shocked when she saw Emmett up close. He didn’t seem like a fool at all. Instead, she was mesmerized by his sharp features and noble
demeanor. Sydney was dumbstruck too. He is such a good-looking man. Life is too good to Savannah. Emmett greeted, “Mom, Sydney.” Nina came to her senses and pushed Sydney softly to drag the latter out of her trance. Knowing that she couldn’t afford to lose her manners, she replied happily, “Fantastic! Emmett’s a fine young man.” Sydney snapped out of her daze and acted all chummy with Savannah. Holding the latter’s hand in hers, she said while her eyes reddened with tears, “Savannah, I’m so reluctant to part with you after knowing you’re married.” How shameless!
Disgusted by Sydney’s shamelessness, Savannah smiled indifferently and pulled her hands away silently when they entered the house together. Unfazed by her reaction, Sydney turned to Emmett and greeted, “Good day, Emmett.” When they walked into the house, Emmett deliberately tripped on the stairs while Savannah quickly supported him so that he didn’t fall to the ground. He smiled like a fool and said, “Thank you, Honey.” Sydney felt that life was fair when she saw the man’s foolish actions. Well, can’t change the fact that he is still a retard, even if he is handsome. He’s almos
t in his thirties, but he can’t even walk properly. Savannah prepared herself mentally when she sat in the car and mustered every ounce of her courage to step into the house, which brought her a lot of nightmares. Sean and Ford were waiting in the living room while a tea set was prepared on the coffee table. Walking into the living room, Savannah forced a smile and greeted, “Dad, Ford, good to see you guys.” However, Sean ignored her and walked toward Emmett. Taking the latter’s hands into his, he was all smiles. “Emmett, you’re such a wonderful son-in-law.”
