She was so much better than Sarah.
Rodney must have a loose screw in his head. “If you reveal this matter to Old Master Snow, will he chase Rodney out of the family again out of anger like the last time? It’ll be great if he does so.”
Shaun glanced at Cate with mixed feelings. ” That’s impossible. Back then, Rodney was a person with no abilities in the Snow family members’ eyes. But things are different now. They’ve given him the chance to spread his wings. If… the Snow family can’t stop him, there is nothing we can do.”
Cate was speechless. She got even more infuriated.
She admitted that she had her selfish reasons. She just wanted to see Rodney lose everything for Sarah’s sake again. By then, he would be wagging his tail pitifully and apologizing to Mireya.
Fine. That was reality, after all.
At the Snow family’s manor.
As soon as Rodney walked in, he saw that everyone in the main family had already arrived.
Old Master Snow was sitting at the head seat. On his left and right were Prime Minister Snow and his wife, as well as Jason and his wife. In the following seats were Ryan, Jessica, and Carson.
Rodney’s heart sank. This scene made him recall the time they chased him out of the Snow family.
Bang.
Old Master Snow smashed a fine teacup on the ground. The glass shards flew across the bottom of Rodney’s pants.
“Kneel.” Old Master Snow was enraged.
Rodney could only bite the bullet and kneel on the floor while avoiding the glass.
Upon seeing that, Old Master Snow flew into a fury. He stepped forward and kicked Rodney in the chest. “You’re like a leopard that never changes its spots. I thought that you’ve really changed for good, so I gave you chances and supported you. How dare you keep Sarah behind my back? Do you think you’re being fair to your wife and your child? Why does the Snow family have someone like you?”
Jason said disappointedly, “No one in the Snow family has kept a mistress before. Look at you. Your child hasn’t even been born for 1oo days, and you’re already keeping Sarah out there. Have you ever thought of your wife’s feelings?” “Grandpa, Dad, nothing is going on between Sarah and me. I just think she’s pitiful since she has no one to rely on. But I’m thinking of sending her overseas after half a month.” Rodney clutched his chest that was in pain and said, “I remember everything that you have taught me. I will never do anything that’ll betray Mireya.”
“Pitiful?” Prime Minister Snow smiled coldly. ” Sarah endangered Titus’s wife and harmed your best friend, yet you still think she’s pitiful?”
“Uncle Nathan, you don’t have evidence on that. Besides, Sarah told me that Wesley coerced her into doing those things. Her whole body is covered in wounds from Wesley’s whipping. She’s very pitiful.”
Rodney raised his head and retorted, “Even if you’re the prime minister, you don’t have the right to arrest people when you don’t have evidence.”
“You…” Prime Minister Snow pointed his finger at Rodney. Deep fury welled up in his eyes. “You’re utterly hopeless.”
“So… You’re still not willing to hand over Sarah, right?” Old Master Snow looked at Rodney, his gaze intimidating.
“I said I would send her overseas half a month later.”
Rodney insisted till the end.
“Are you trying to go against the family for that woman again, like the last time?” Jason was unhappy. “Rodney, you should know that we have high hopes for you. Is it worth doing this just for a woman?”
“Dad, this isn’t about whether it’s worth it or not. I’ve never done anything that betrayed all of you and my wife. I’m certain of that. As my family, why can’t you understand me?”
Rodney was disappointed too. “It would be one thing if it were other people, but another since you are my family. Besides, if it weren’t for Sarah’s sacrifice, I would never have been able to return to the Snow family. She was the one who reunited us. She didn’t want you to lose me, your son.”
Wendy laughed in exasperation. “Do I have to thank her for this?”
Rodney pressed his lips together. “There’s no need for that. I’ll give her some money. I can only do this much for her.”
“You’re beyond saving.” Old Master Snow rapped the floor furiously with his walking stick.
“Grandpa, don’t worry. I’ll take care of my personal matters. I’ll do well in my job too.” Rodney raised his head and said, “The project that you’ve handed over to me already has great progress. I’m assuming Carson must’ve told you that Country Y is intending to collaborate with us in a 300-billion- dollar megaproject.”
Old Master Snow was speechless as he glared at Rodney with mixed feelings.
He disliked his grandson’s personal life, but Rodney was pretty capable in the business world.
After a long time, Old Master Snow said tiredly, ” I hope you’ll keep your word. I’ll give you half a month to send Sarah away. Don’t make Mireya sad.”
“Thank you, Grandpa.” Rodney was about to get up in delight.
” Stay down, ” Old Master Snow scolded. Then, he walked away with the support of his walking stick.
The Snow family members left one after another with grim expressions. Ryan was the only one who was slow to leave, and he stopped in front of Rodney. “Do you really think that you’re not in the wrong at all? Can you live up to your conscience? Can you live up to your wife and daughter?”
“Of course, ” Rodney replied without hesitation. ” Ryan, I know you have feelings for my wife. But you should just give up. She’ll never be together with you.”
“I really feel sorry for Mireya.”
Ryan shook his head lightly. He could not help an unrepentant person. With that, he left in long strides.
At night, Ryan, Prime Minister Snow, and his wife were heading back to the official residence in a bulletproof car.
The prime minister’s wife, Heidi, rubbed her temples. “Why can’t Rodney see through it all? Sarah isn’t a simple woman. Will she leave so easily? Why did she come back all of a sudden? If it isn’t because she has her eyes on Rodney’s current identity. You guys must keep an eye on Rodney for the next half a month. They’re a man and a woman. Sarah can never get pregnant with his child.”
Ryan’s eyes were filled with mockery. “Rodney’s feelings are already biased toward Sarah. As long as Sarah is feeling uncomfortable, he’ll rush over immediately. Who can control him? His legs are his own.”
“No matter what, Sarah cannot enter the Snow family,” Nathan said in a stern voice.
Heidi nodded in agreement. “That kind of person will ruin the Snow family’s reputation. She might even bury a bomb for the Snow family.”
“So… You’re saying that we don’t have to care about Rodney and have Mireya continue to be the young madam? If Sarah happens to get pregnant, Rodney can keep her outside as his mistress?” Ryan suddenly asked sternly.
Nathan and his wife fell silent.
That scene made Ryan shudder inexplicably. ” Haven’t you both thought about Mireya at all?”
After a long moment of silence, Nathan sighed and said, “Sometimes, we’ll gain some things and lose some things as well.”
“What did Mireya gain?”
Ryan turned to look at his father. “Getting an identity as your goddaughter? But you’re the prime minister. You should know that many people are clear as to why you took her in as your goddaughter. Mom, you must’ve heard a lot of rumors when you attend those banquets too. Canberra is huge, but not many respect her.
“Moreover, when Senator Mead was rebelling, most of us knew the truth. But we never told Mireya because we wanted to make her bait to deceive Senator Mead. We allowed Senator Mead’s men to monitor her every moment, which made her frightened and worried during her pregnancy.”
Nathan was rendered speechless, and Heidi sighed. “She really has gone through a lot for that.”
“That’s not the only incident. ” A hint of sarcasm flashed across Ryan’s expression. “Back then, when you guys wanted to separate Sarah and Rodney, all of you thought Mireya was nice, so you made her pregnant. After she was pregnant, you acknowledged her as your goddaughter to make her stay willingly. Then, she chose to get married to Rodney for the sake of the Snow family’s reputation. Now, you guys want her to sacrifice again because you’re afraid of Sarah marrying into the Snow family.”
Ryan’s words did make Nathan quite ashamed. ” Ryan, this isn’t my intent alone. It’s the Snow family’s intent. Do you understand?”
“I do. That’s why I’m telling you guys about this in private, ” Ryan said.
Heidi was puzzled. “Why are you speaking for Mireya today? Did she… say anything to you?”
“Mom, if you were Mireya, would you stay with Rodney?” Ryan asked all of a sudden.
Heidi was silent. Of course, she would not.
She would even slowly torture Rodney and Sarah.
Ryan said sympathetically, “Mireya isn’t Sarah’s opponent at all, and I reckon Sarah has no intentions of leaving Australia too. Once she gets pregnant, she’ll have many ways to keep Rodney by her side. You can see it for yourselves now, much less the future. During the questioning just now, Rodney had no consideration for Mireya at all. As time passes, Mireya will be left to take care of the child in the villa alone. Then, her wonderful youth as a woman will be ruined.
“The worst is that Mireya will be forced into a dead end. She hates Sarah. No one hates Sarah more than she does, and she’ll despise Rodney. If that goes on, she’ll fall into depression. What about Rodney?
Since he has a nice woman out there, it’ll be even less likely for him to go home to a woman who hates him.”
“What you said… is quite possible.” Heidi nodded. Sometimes, women knew each other better. ” Did Mireya look for you to tell you that she wants to divorce Rodney?”
Ryan nodded. “I’ve asked her that. She’s very determined, and… very disappointed. She cried a lot in the evening too. But at that time, Rodney had no time to care about her at all. All he cared about was accompanying Sarah.”
“Oh, Rodney…” Heidi shook her head in disappointment.
Ryan made use of the opportunity immediately. ” Dad, Mom, Mireya is your goddaughter after all.
Won’t it be embarrassing for you guys if she ends up in a bad situation?”
