I Hope You Will Never Regret

Mrs Martins wiped her tears and said, “Son, I am going back to my room. The fever has not gone yet. Please be careful of your sister. Should you continue being friendly with her, your father will give your inheritance to her. Do you understand, Son?” Aiden looked at his mother and nodded his head. Then his mother left his room smiling. Aiden was so angry; he decided to confront his sister after dinner.

Hope went to Mrs Martins’ bedroom to inform her that dinner had been served. She looked at her and asked, “Madam, do you want me to bring your food here since you are not well?” Mrs Martins looked at Hope coldly, but she didn’t utter a word. Hope turned and walked towards the door. Mrs Martins was furious when she saw Hope leaving and asked, “Who gave you permission to leave?”

Hope didn’t turn and said, “Madam, I thought you became mute after playing in the rain. Hence, I decided to leave you alone.” Then she left Mrs Martins’ bedroom laughing. Mrs Martins felt humiliated to be laughed at by a mere helper in her house.

A few minutes later, Mrs Martins headed down to the dining room to eat. She didn’t want to miss Avery being humiliated by her beloved brother.

When she arrived in the dining room, everyone was already there waiting for her. She winked at her son, then she started dishing for herself. Avery was smiling brightly waiting for her beloved brother to dish for her, but her brother just ignored her. Aiden looked at his sister coldly and started eating his food.

Mr Martins looked at his lovely daughter and asked, “Sweetheart, what do you want to eat?” Avery had tears in her eyes and replied, “Daddy, it’s my brother’s turn to serve me today. Big brother, I haven’t offended you. Why are you looking at me coldly?”

Aiden stopped eating and replied, “Avery, the Lord has blessed you with two hands. Please serve yourself.” Then he ignored her. Bridgette put food on Avery’s plate, and she started eating. She was puzzled about what she had done to get such treatment. She loved her brother so much.

After dinner, their father asked them to follow him to his study room. They sat on the sofa, and he said, “Aiden, did your sister offend you?” Aiden looked at his father and replied, “Daddy, ever since Avery was born, you neglected my mother. I hate her for stealing Daddy from my mom.”

His father was dumbfounded when he heard his son’s words and said, “What nonsense are you spouting? When did you see me neglecting your mother?” Aiden looked at his father annoyed and replied, “Mommy told me that you rewarded Avery’s nanny for beating her up with a vacation. Daddy, are you not supposed to protect your wife? Are you going to marry the nanny?”

It was clear that his wife was sowing a discord between his children. He was fuming and replied, “Aiden, the Lord has blessed you with brains, why don’t you use them? As her big brother, you are supposed to protect her, but you are failing dismally to fulfill your role. Please apologize to your sister for accusing her wrongly.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Aiden looked at Avery and sneered, “I will never apologize for telling the truth. Daddy, I am not my sister’s keeper, and it is not my obligation to protect her. Listen to me carefully Avery, if you think that my father will divorce my mother and marry your nanny, think again. It will never happen.”

Avery looked at her brother with confusion in her beautiful eyes and replied, “Big brother, who is in the right mind would want her parents to be separated? Don’t allow someone to use you in order to achieve her goals. Don’t you see that she is sowing a discord between us because we are close? Think about it”

Aiden looked at his father and asked, “Daddy, why do you favour Avery over me? You didn’t even fight for me when my mother didn’t allow me to visit your company. Am I not your son as well?” His father was so disappointed in his son and replied, “Aiden, I love you both equally. To have peace in this house, your mother and I agreed that your mother will have the final say in your matters. Do you want me to change that, Son?

Aiden shook his head; how could he allow that to happen? His mother would be sad. Also, he didn’t trust his father anymore. It is clear that he loved Avery more. He decided in his heart that he would protect his mother from his father. He looked at his father and said, “Daddy, I prefer my matters to be handled by Mommy. However, I am no longer Avery’s brother from today onwards.”

Avery looked at her brother with tears in her eyes and said, “Aiden, I apologize for offending you. I will do anything to mend our relationship; you mean a lot to me.” Aiden smiled brightly and replied, “I don’t want to see your nanny in my house, please chase her away. Then I will agree to be your brother.”

Avery looked at her brother, he was so childish and replied, “Big brother, Aunt Bridgette has been with me since I was born, and I love her. She sacrificed a lot to be my nanny. Therefore, I will never chase her away. I love you so much big brother, but your request is childish. If you want to server ties with me, please go ahead.”

Their father looked at his children with worried eyes and said, “Aiden, Avery is your only sister, please reconsider.” Aiden smiled at his sister and replied, “I would reconsider if she chased the outsider who threatened my mother’s marriage. Who does she think she is? Who gave her the right to hurt my mother?”

Avery was fuming when she heard her brother’s words and replied, “Who gave your mother the right to hurt me? She is nothing compared to Aunt Bridgette. Open your eyes, there is no one who is threatening your mother’s marriage, it’s her own doing. She is evil and heartless. If you don’t see that your mother is evil, I think you are dumb. Please think carefully about your decision because I am not a forgiving person.”

Then she smiled beautifully at her father and asked, “Daddy, may I be excused?” Her father nodded his head. She looked at her brother coldly, then she left. Mr Martins said, “Son, I am so disappointed in you. You listened to your mother’s lies and you believed them. Please trust me if I say, I love you both equally.” Then he asked his son to leave.

A few minutes later, he went to his wife’s bedroom. She was sitting on the bed with a magazine in her hand. She started panicking when she saw her husband’s angry face. Her husband sat on the sofa and said, “Elizabeth, refrain from sowing a discord between our children. How would you feel if I came between you and your brother? Please don’t tempt me, Elizabeth.” Then he left his wife’s bedroom without waiting for her response.
