“How dare you!” Valerie bellowed and banged on the desk.
Debbie shut her mouth immediately. As the saying goes, “He who talks much errs
much.” She wondered whether she had said something wrong that caused
Valerie's fury. But she didn't say anything wrong.
“Debbie! You are so rude! Didn't your parents teach you about self-esteem and
self-respect?” Valerie's words cut Debbie's pride Like a sharp knife.
Her face was hot as she felt both sad and humiliated.
“Grandma, Deb—"
Before Carlos could finish, Debbie interrupted him. “Carlos has been yelled at by
his family this whole time because of me. I should do something, “ she thought.
Looking Valerie in the eye, she flashed a smile and said, “Grandma, I don’t think
it's a big deal to leave self-esteem and self-respect behind to be happy.”
Carlos had done a lot for her, and she should repay him. And this was the best
way she knew how. By carefully choosing words that they couldn't argue over,
maybe she could stop them from fighting. Maybe she'd even win one for Carlos.
Who knew? But it was important that she stood up for herself and for Carlos, not
to mention for their marriage.
Carlos’ eyes Lit up when he heard this. Meanwhile, his heart ached as
Debbie had to fight against three elders.
James knew he was in the wrong, so he had to find another excuse to yell at her.
“Debbie! Who do you think you are? We're older than you.
Show some respect!”
Debbie blinked and sighed with resignation.
“I wanted to respect you, but respect is a two-way street. You haven't shown me
any respect at all.”
No one had ever dared to talk to James like that before. His face twitched as he
said through gritted teeth, “Fine! You have guts! Aren't you afraid that I'll drive
you out of the Hilton family’s house?
Upon hearing that, Debbie held Carlos’ arm and said playfully, “Honey, your
father wants to throw me out of the house. Protect me?”
“Hahaha... Wade burst into Laughter at Debbie's reaction.
The tension in the study was eased a little by Wade's laughter.
However, Valerie and James still wore long faces. It would take more than just
that to change their minds.

I'm away, Grandma, Dad, Uncle...” He left it there, an unspoken threat.
More menacing than anything he could have said.
