“Prisci, I was against Wes marrying you from the start. No family background, no education. Now, after just three years by Wes’s side, you think you’re somebody and dare toy a hand on him? Where did you get the nerve?”


    “And your little sister–she ran away from her wedding, and now she has the nerve toe back and look for Wes.”


    “If you sisters are willing to share a husband, our Carlton family can’t afford to lose face like that.”


    “Utterly no manners.”


    Prisci clenched her fingers and listened as Amelia criticized her from head to toe, leaving her worthless.


    But she couldn’t even argue back. She could only remain silent.


    It wasn’t until Wesley arrived that Amelia finally stopped talking.


    Wesley reached out to Prisci from afar. “Come here.”


    Prisci lowered her eyes and walked over.


    Wesley rested his hand on her shoulder and, not very warmly, said to Amelia, “Prisci will take care of me here. You should go home.”


    Amelia red fiercely at Prisci and warned her to take good care of Wesley before finally leaving.


    Prisci took Wesley back to the ward.


    Wesleyy on the hospital bed. Seeing Prisci’s pale face, he tried to

    reassure her “It’s nothing serious. Don’t wony”


    Prisci looked at him quietly and asked in a soft voice, “Why did you shield me?”


    “You’re my wife. Of course I’ll protect you.” There was a hint of helplessness in Wesley’s brows, “I already told the doctor what to say Why did you tell Mom that you hit me?”


    Prisci didn’t cover for Dillon and told him about how he had threatened her with Grandma.


    After all, Wesley knew the truth.


    Wesley fell silent. He hadn’t expected Dillon to be that kind of person


    Suddenly, he found himself understanding, just a little, that why Prisci disliked the Wilburn family.


    Meanwhile, in the parking lot downstairs.


    As soon as Dillon got in the car, Taniained anxiously, “Did you eat gunpowder today? Why did you hit?”


    If he hadn’t suddenlyshed out, he wouldn’t have ended up hitting Wesley.


    Dillon was in a good mood, even smiling. “Wes has feelings for Prisci as his wife.”


    Tania didn’t understand.


    Dillon lowered his voice and told her abouting to see Prisci with Bonnie earlier, and also about what had just happened in the doctor’s office–how Wesley had lied about his head injury.


    Wesley lied to protect Prisci.

    “I did it on purpose. I was testing Wes’s feelings.”


    “If Wes cares about Prisci, life will be much easier for our family”


    For the past three years, he had always worried that Wesley was, dissatisfied with Prisci, and that one day he might end the rtionship and cut ties. That’s why he never dared to get too close to Wesley, let alone use the status of father–inw in public.


    It wasn’t until Larissa came back, and Wesley still treated her as before, that he started to have new ideas.


    Now Wesley cared about Prisci again…


    In short, whichever daughter got along with Wesley, it was good for


    him.


    Tania looked worried. “Prisci has never been close to us.


    “With Mom living at home, she’ll listen to us.”


    Ten o’clock at night.


    Larissa came to see Wesley.


    Prisci didn’t want to listen to their lingering and sentimental talk, so she found an excuse to leave the hospital room.


    “Prisci still hates me,” Larissa said in her usual aggrieved tone.


    Larissa’s mood had been up and down today. She realized she could no longer remain indifferent to this Prisci.


    “That’s just her temper.” Wesley replied calmly.


    Still, Larissa could hear something different in his tone.


    In the past, Wesley would sound a bit impatient, more or less feeling

    that Prisci was unreasonable.


    But now, there was a hint of indulgent resignation in his voice.


    “Prisci has won Sir Livingston’s favor. I should be happy for her, but I just feel disappointed. I only asked her a few questions about her rtionship with Mr. Livingston, but she said my tears were disgusting.” As Larissa spoke, her eyes turned red and were full of grievance and disappointment.


    Wesley frowned. Prisci was indeed capable of saying something like


    that.


    “Then ud saw it. You know how he always feels sorry for me. Before I could exin, he rushed out to find Prisci.”


    “Sorry to have dragged you into this, Wes.”


    Wesley had never been able to bring himself to me Larissa harshly, she had always been gentle by nature.


    “I’m fine, you don’t need to worry.”


    He rubbed his brow, then, as if something urred to him, he asked Larissa, “Has your father always disliked Prisci?”


    That p had been quite forceful.
