To Be Yours Again novel (Jenny and Alex) novel Chapter 1184

Lynette almost lost it a few times and wanted to beat up the rascal, but she couldn't because Eric doted on his son.

"Eric Dafoe, have you never told your son what actually happened? You pressured the Bells for my hand in marriage. Did you think I'd marry you otherwise?" She was truly angered. After being forced to marry Eric, Eric's son accused her of being a mistress, and she refused to take that lying down.

Eric's expression soured. "You said you didn't want to marry me? Who would you prefer, then? Graham Walter?"

She shouldn't take his silence on the way back home as his forgiveness.

"Eric Dafoe! Your son is slandering me!" She jumped in anger.

"Why are you taking him seriously?" Eric countered as though the twenty-year-old Pete was still a child.

Lynette gritted her teeth and came to a realization when she glowered at the father and son. "Sure, I shouldn't take him too seriously. I'm a fool for expecting you to speak up for me. You'd rather have me accused than get yourself dragged, isn't it? You and your son are both disgusting!"

With that, she stomped up the stairs. Although she badly wanted to escape from that horrible place, she knew that she wouldn't stand a chance to do so.

Eric was still furious after hearing Lynette slam the bedroom door. He stared at Pete coldly. "Why are you here?"

"Nothing, really. I heard there were some interesting episodes at the charity dinner. So I made a visit on purpose." He was always gleeful to witness Eric and Lynette arguing.

"I think that woman's daughter might be an interesting character. I kind of want to give her a try." Pete chuckled.

The bedroom door suddenly flung open, and a wild Lynette appeared in the corridor. She gave Pete a death stare. "If you dare to have any funny ideas about Jenny, I'll dig up your mother's grave!"

"You—" Pete was astounded by her chilling threat.

"Try me! If you so much as lay a finger on Jenny, I'll see it through!" Lynette threatened him, knowing he cared the most about his late mother. Too bad his mother was dead. If that woman was alive, Lynette could have held her hostage, but she had no choice but to threaten him with his mother's dead body.
