Untamed Charming Wife

Ethaniel skillfully parked his car in the small alley near Kayla’s house. As he approached the front door, his brow suddenly furrowed.

Something was wrong!

The two front doors of the house were wide open, and one of them appeared to have been forcibly struck. Ethaniel dashed inside, finding the once neat and tidy yard now in complete disarray.

He quickened his pace, pushing open the house door. Inside, there were signs of a struggle; tables and chairs were overturned, and Ethaniel’s already furrowed brow turned icy cold.

He pulled out his phone and quickly dialed a number, “It’s me. Activate the satellite tracking immediately.”

Kayla was taken to the Green Family’s villa. As she observed the lavish surroundings, she let out a scornful laugh.

The moment she stepped inside, she saw Sam and his family sitting on the living room sofa.

Eileen, always the smooth talker, stood up with a smile when she saw Kayla. “Kayla, it’s been so many years since we last saw you. You’ve grown so much.”

“How does my growing up concern you?” Kayla replied coldly.

Eileen’s smile froze on her face.

Sam frowned and said in a low voice, “You should speak respectfully to your elders. How did your mother raise you?”

“How my mother raised me is none of your business,” Kayla said, her gaze filled with contempt. “Where is my mom? I’m here to take her home.”

“Kayla, watch your words!” Sam didn’t answer her question and instead looked at her angrily. “You have no manners at all. Do you want to disgrace me?”

Kayla looked at Sam disdainfully. “If my existence embarrasses you, your existence embarrasses me even more!”

“You-” Sam stood up abruptly. He was always high and mighty, and no one had ever dared to speak to him like this!

“Kayla!” Aria shouted angrily. “This is my house. You’d better show some respect!”

Kayla nodded and sneered. “Yes, this is your home. I wouldn’t come here willingly! Give me back my mom, and I’ll leave immediately!”

“We invited your mom over as a guest, not by force,” Violet said, looking at the rose vase on the coffee table. “If she wants to leave, you can take her anytime. If she doesn’t want to leave, should we force her out?”

Kayla almost wanted to applaud Violet’s sophistry!

“You know very well how she was brought here. If my mom were clear-headed, she would never come here.”

“Enough,” Sam said, looking at Kayla. “Your mom came to discuss your marriage. Once that’s settled, I’ll send her back.”

“Marriage?” Kayla was stunned. This development was beyond her expectations.

“Yes,” Eileen said, smiling warmly. “Your father thinks you’re old enough to consider marriage, so he invited your mom over to discuss it.”

“Discuss? What are you to me? Who I marry is none of your business. My mom isn’t in her right mind and sometimes can’t even speak properly. What can she discuss with you? Sam, what exactly do you want?”

“How dare you speak to me like that, you-”

“Sam, calm down,” Eileen quickly soothed him before turning to Kayla with a feigned smile. “Kayla, your father feels he owes you and your mother and wants to make it up to you by welcoming you back into the Green Family. I agree with him on this.”

Kayla laughed coldly. Her mother was Sam’s original wife, yet now needed this mistress’s acknowledgment.

“Since you’re part of the Green Family, you should find a suitable husband. Your father thinks Clifton, the son of the chairman of Taihee Group, is a good match.” Eileen smiled. “Taihee Group is a leading conglomerate in Estrica region. If you marry Clifton, you’ll have a bright future.”

Kayla replied coldly, “I don’t know Clifton or Taihee Group. I won’t marry him. Where’s my mom? I’m taking her home.”

“Don’t be so ungrateful!” Sam slammed his hand on the table. “The Caden Family is powerful, and Clifton is their sole heir. The benefits for you are immense!”

“Fine,” Kayla raised an eyebrow. “If marrying Clifton is so beneficial, why doesn’t Aria or Violet marry him? Do you think I’m a three-year-old?”

“You can’t compare to your sisters!” Sam shouted in anger. “Now is the time for the Green Family to need you!”

“Oh?” The angrier Sam became, the calmer Kayla was. “So, the Green Family is in trouble?”

Sam’s face changed, and his angry eyes avoided Kayla’s gaze. “A marriage alliance with the Taihee Group would benefit the Green Family and you.”

Kayla truly laughed, her eyes mocking as she looked at the family of four on the sofa. “Your company is in trouble, so you kidnap my mom and force me to marry. If the conditions are so good, why don’t Aria and Violet marry him? Just tell me, what’s wrong with the Caden Family or Clifton?”

“… Dad said you should marry him.” Aria hesitated. “And your mom agreed.”

“Then let my mom tell me herself. If she says it’s okay, I won’t object.” Kayla looked steadily at Sam.

“Your mom really agreed,” Eileen said with a smile. “We’ve also arranged a dinner with Mr. Caden tonight. You can meet Clifton. After dinner, you can see your mom.”

Kayla heard the threat in her words. If she didn’t go to the dinner, she wouldn’t see her mom.

Her gaze swept over the four of them, icy, contemptuous, and disdainful, making them all nervous.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Just as Sam was about to get angry again, Kayla sneered, “Fine, I’ll go.”

Eileen and Aria both sighed in relief. Eileen quickly instructed, “Violet, take Kayla to change. It’s getting late, and we need to hurry.”

Kayla frowned. “I’m wearing this.”

Sam looked at her police uniform with disdain. “You can’t attend the Caden Family dinner like that. Do you have any social etiquette?”

Kayla sneered, “I think this uniform looks much better than your ostentatious dresses!”

“Alright, alright,” Eileen tried to mediate, smiling warmly at Kayla. “The dinner isn’t suitable for a police uniform. How about this: I’ll bring the uniform for you, and after dinner, when you go home with your mom, I’ll give it back to you, okay?”

Kayla didn’t want to waste more time here. She glanced at Sam, then turned and followed Violet to change clothes.
