I Hope You Will Never Regret

Chapter 225 Please Don’t Force Me to Like Her



In the parking lot, August and Paul were laughing and chatting after church. August smiled at his friend and said, “Congratulations on getting a brand-new son-in-law, my dearest friend. Keith is a good man.

Even though the Taylor family is very wealthy, they don’t look down on people. Also, Caroline will be there to guide Bridgette. She is kind-hearted and a good woman.”

Paul heaved a sigh of relief. He was scared that his beloved daughter would be despised by the Taylor family because the Evans family was not as wealthy as them.

Paul thanked August and asked, “Does Elizabeth know about my God granddaughter’s husband? He is so handsome.”

August shook his head and replied, “She doesn’t know, my friend. Also, I asked John to hide this matter until the Gala. I am scared that she would do anything to sabotage my daughter’s happiness.

In her eyes, only her precious niece deserves good things. I will divorce Elizabeth after Avery’s wedding, Paul. The only reason I stayed in this sham of a marriage was because of my children. I had enough.”Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

Paul smiled and said, “You are a better person than me, August. I would never have stayed in that kind of marriage, even for my daughter. Your wife is evil-hearted, and she doesn’t deserve you, my friend.

May the Lord bless you with a young beautiful lady who will love you with all her heart.” August smiled at his friend and replied, “I receive it gladly, Paul.” Unbeknownst to him, it would come to pass.

August bade goodbye to the Evans family, then he drove his car to the Martins mansion. He had asked his lawyer, Eric Duma, to draw up a divorce agreement for him.

The signed divorce agreement was lying quietly in his study room’s drawer waiting to be served to Elizabeth.

At the Taylor mansion, Xavier and Avery were in Sage’s bedroom. Sage looked at her father and asked, “Daddy, where is Aunt Getty? She told me that she had been chased away by Dr Martins. Is it true, Daddy?”

Xavier ruffled his daughter’s hair and replied, “No, it’s not true, Sweetheart. I asked Aunt Getty to leave because you are a big girl now. Your Grandma will take care of you when we are at work.”

Sage looked at Dr Martins with hatred in her eyes, but she didn’t utter a word. His father furrowed his brows and asked, “Sage, why are you looking at my wife like that? Also, why are you addressing my wife as Dr Martins, not Aunt Avery?”

Sage lowered her eyes and replied, “Aunt Getty told me that Dr Martins is trying to replace my mother’s sister. Also, she said that Dr Martins is forcing you to marry her because she saved me. Is it true, Daddy?”

Her father’s face darkened and replied, “Sweetheart, stop addressing my wife as Dr Martins. There is nothing between me and your mother’s sister.

I married my wife because I love her very much. Also, I married her before she saved you. By saving you, it made me love her more.”

Sage looked at her father and said, “Daddy, please don’t marry her because of me. It was her job to save me. Isn’t she a doctor?” Avery was dumbfounded when she saw hatred in Sage’s eyes. She thought they were getting along well.

Her father was fuming with anger when he heard Sage’s words and replied, “Sage, you have to learn to be grateful. When you were in a coma, the senior doctor told us to prepare for your funeral.

At that time, my wife was on leave, but she canceled her leave to save you. I love you so much, my beautiful daughter, but not more than my wife. She is a good woman, and she loves you very much.”

Sage looked at Aunt Avery with eyes full of hatred and said, “How do you know that she loves me very much, Daddy? I think she is pretending, and I hate her for replacing my mother in your heart.

Daddy, please don’t force me to like her because she will never be my mother. Also, she is nothing to me. Please leave, I want to rest.”

Her father was dumbfounded. He looked at his daughter in a different light. She listened to the outsiders, but she refused to believe in her father.

Where did that hatred come from? She was fighting for the Moore family who had abandoned her for the past five years. They didn’t even care about her. They were using her to gain benefits.

Sage didn’t know how to differentiate between right and wrong. He was so disappointed in his daughter. At a tender age, she was evil-hearted and had an ungrateful heart.

Her father looked at his wife and said, “I am sorry, my stunning wife. I promise you, my love. No one will come between us.”

Then he looked at Sage coldly and said, “I am so disappointed in you, Sage. I will leave you alone to reflect on yourself.”

Xavier hugged his wife tightly, and then they left Sage’s room with heavy hearts. They went to the living room to join the elders. Xavier told his Grandpa and his parents Sage’s words. They were shocked. They couldn’t believe their ears.

His mother hugged her daughter-in-law and said, “I think we did well by chasing away that bad woman before she caused serious damage. It is clear to me that she has corrupted my granddaughter to be against my daughter-in-law.”

Grandpa Taylor was fuming with anger and said, “My precious grandson, you have to protect my granddaughter in love from your daughter and the Moore family.

Failing to do so, you will end up without a wife, and it will be too late to regret it. It is clear to me that the Moore family is not done with you, my precious grandson.

They had been missing in action for the past five years, and they didn’t care about their granddaughter. They planted a spy who was telling them everything.

The Moore girl will never enter the Taylor family while I am still alive. I will only acknowledge Avery as my precious granddaughter in love.”

His father looked at his son and said, “Should you give in to Sage once, you must know that your marriage will be over. The Moore family is greedy, and they will do anything to remove my daughter-in-law from being your wife.

We were wrong to keep Aunt Getty in our house since my wife was capable of looking after our granddaughter. We apologize for creating more problems for you and your wife, Son.”

Xavier looked at his father and replied, “It is not your fault, Dad. We didn’t want my daughter to cut ties with her maternal grandparents.

We thought that since we gave them a piece of land as compensation, they would be satisfied and leave us alone. Unfortunately, it was our wishful thinking.”
