Chapter 236 It&##x27;s All Against

Kent had been doing well in the past two years. He had bought a house in A City for his parents.
Although the house was not very large, it enjoys a good geographical location and it was convenient.

Kent's mother was not used to living in this big city at the beginning, but she accepted to live in this big
city gradually.

Every day, she got up early and went to the supermarket nearby to buy food. She would prepare the
breakfast by herself occasionally, and sometimes she would go out to for dinner.

As usual, she went home directly with two deep fried dough sticks in her hand after buying vegetables.
Her husband had been nagging about the fried dough sticks near the gate of the community these
days. Today when she saw them, she brought two back.

"Oh, you finally opened the door. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Do you know a big gossip
I've heard recently?" Seeing Janet got close, Ted banged on the door. Once the door opened, he said
with excitement.

Gossips were people's favorite things.

Janet slowed down when she heard him. She wanted to know what kind of gossip they were talking
about.

"What kind of gossip is it that makes you so excited?" One of the neighbors of Kent's mother said to
him with a careless look.

"As I remember, your neighbor is called Kent, right?" A mysterious smile crept up on Ted's face. As
soon as she heard that it was about her son, Janet paid more attention to their conversation.

"Yes. What's wrong? It is so mysterious." The two of them were about to push each other and enter the
room. Janet was a little worried that she couldn't hear what they were talking about.



But how could Ted let her not hear what he said? In the end, Ted said to the man, "I heard that he was
dating a pregnant woman called Melinda. What's more, the baby is not his. How amazing it is!"

"What? I have never heard of it." The neighbor said in surprise and looked at the door of the opposite
house meaningfully. Then she happened to see Janet. Upon seeing this, they quickly ran into the room
and closed the door.

They acted so fast as if they had been hurt, as if she had been caught doing bad things.

After Janet came to herself, she felt so humiliated. Nothing comes out of nowhere. She was sure that
what happened today was true.

This name was not strange to his family. It was the woman his son long for, and it was also because of
her that his son gave up such a good daughter-in-law.

Janet never thought that this woman was so shameless. She even seduced her son when she had a
child. She was totally irritated and wanted to burn Melinda to death.

At the same time, in the room opposite the door of Kent's house.

"Bro, you are a good actor." The neighbor took the money in his hand and counted it happily. He didn't
expect that he could get so much money for playing like this. It was almost half a year's salary of him.

"It's all because you have cooperated well. All right, I've finished it and I'm leaving now. Don't forget
what I've told you."

Ted patted on the man's shoulder. He was sure that Kent's mother must have heard what he said.

Whether the boss's plan would work or not, it would depend on her then.



As for the atmosphere of the police station, Jonas didn't have to worry about it, because he trusted Ted
very much. When Ted remembered, he would tell the Jonas what had happened.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you coming back with a sullen face? Don't quarrel with the people
who are shopping outside again." It is easier for Charles to adapt the pace of life in this city than Janet.
He was reading newspaper on the sofa with his presbyopia glasses.

"Am I?"

Being exposed by her husband, Janet was pissed off. Charles supported his glasses and finally took off
them to make him feel more comfortable.

"Yes, you are."

Kent's mother didn't want to spend money so hard. She didn't know how much money her son earned.
The last time she saw a villain, she had a big fight with him. And the issue was still discussed in the
neighborhood.

"You've brought me fried dough sticks. Nice."

Kent's father said with satisfaction. There were other breakfasts prepared by Kent's mother on the
table. The fried dough sticks could only be regarded as the ingredients.

"Eat! Eat! You are still enjoying eating!" Kent's mother thought of what she had just heard, and
suddenly lost her appetite.

"I … Aren't I happy that you bought me deep fried dough sticks? Why can't I eat it? "

Charles waved his hand helplessly and said. He didn't know who outside had pissed her off. Now she
went back home and got angry.



"The neighbor pissed me off!" She threw the breakfast on the chopping board and told her husband
what she heard.

"Are you sure what you heard is true?" Kent's father asked in disbelief. They all knew that his son liked
Melinda, and accepted that.

It would be a good thing if they could be together. But now that she was pregnant, what would others
say about their family if they knew that.

"How could I hear the names of my son and that woman wrong?"

Said Kent's mother, looking worried.

"Shall we ask our son to go home?" Charles said. He had to ask Kent first. He wanted to know what
was going on.

"Of course I have to call him back. I was wondering how to tell him,"

Said Janet. It was really hard for her. Kent and she had quarreled with each other because of Melinda.
So she felt very disgusted now, and she didn't want to mention it in front of Kent.

"You don't need to think too much. Just say what you want." Kent's father said. He knew his wife very
well. He didn't expect her to say something euphemistic.

Kent's mother agreed with her husband. She was not the kind who would take the policy of conciliation.

Then she called Kent.

"Dear, come home when you're free. I have something to ask you."

"I know. I will go home tonight." Kent felt something wrong when he heard his mother. But soon he
sensed that what was going to happen, so he didn't avoid.



"Okay, I'll wait for you."

In consideration of his busy work, Kent's mother did not ask him to go back home immediately. But she
was doomed to be restless that day.

Kent got off work on time, but it was inevitable for him to be stuck in traffic jam. When he arrived home,
it was almost seven o'clock. His mother had been restless the whole day, but when she saw her son,
she calmed down.

"Have you eaten yet?"

Charles asked. He gave a hint to Janet with his eyes, indicating that he should let his son have dinner
first even if she was very anxious.

"It doesn't matter, mom. What do you want to know?" He understood what his mother wanted to ask.

"Let's eat first." Kent's mother said when she saw her son's emaciated body.

Kent nodded and hung the coat on the hanger. Then he rolled up his sleeves and went into the dining
room. The dishes on the table were mostly his favorites.

"Dad, mom, let's eat together." Kent looked at their whispering in the living room and said. Charles
nodded and turned to Janet "even if you don't want to eat anything, you have to eat something in front
of our son."

The atmosphere during the meal was unusually silent. When Kent put down his chopsticks, Kent's
mother finally could not help asking, "Dear, I'm asking you, are you with Melinda?"

"Yes, she agreed to be with me."



A smile appeared on Kent's face. He hoped to get his parents' blessing, but his mother looked so
indifferent.

"I don't agree with you. That woman has been pregnant with other's child and still wants to marry you.
What a big joke!"

Janet said. Kent's father said nothing. After all, it was impossible for him to let Melinda become a
member of the family even she had other's children.

Kent lowered his head and looked at the table. Finally, he looked at his mother with great courage and
said directly, "Mommy, who I will be with for life? It's depending on myself. I will marry Linda."

He used to be with his ex-wife in accordance with his mother's wishes, but in the end, they broke up in
discord. So this time he would never compromise easily.

"Mom, I think you know my feelings for Mellie well." The stubbornness in his smile hurt his mother's
heart. She was afraid that her son would be hurt just because she was clear about everything.

"I'm going to bed."

Kent didn't want to hear anything bad about Melinda from his mother, so he returned to his bedroom
directly. He had a plan that he would bring Melinda home tomorrow.

Sooner or later, his mother would understand him.

Kent mentioned about going home with Melinda, and she agreed without hesitation.

"What do your parents like? Kent, could you please tell me? I'll keep that in mind. " Said Melinda. She
felt that she should bring some gifts to his parents.



Seeing how serious she was, Kent felt a little sad. If she knew his parents' attitude, would she still be
like this?

"They love to be frugal, so you'd better not buy anything." Kent said. He was telling the truth. But she
thought he was just kidding. Melinda was still focusing on choosing the gift.

The gifts were not expensive, but they were full of sincerity. At noon, Kent directly brought her to the
home. Melinda was originally nervous to see his parents, but when Kent opened the door, there was
not a sound in the room.

She looked at Kent doubtfully and followed him.

Kent's parents sat in the sofa and didn't say anything when she came in. It was considered a gesture of
indifference.

Holding her hands, Kent gave her a soothing smile to cheer her up. Then, he led her to the front of his
parents, and put the bags that Melinda bought on the table in front of the sofa.

"This is the gift from Mellie."

Said Kent. His mother glanced at them coldly with her arms crossed. After a while, she said, "Your
father and I can't afford to accept it. You'd better take them back."
