He Stole Me From My Deadbeat Husband-Chapter 469

"Dahlia, I—" Marlon gulped nervously. His insistence and stubbornness faltered once Dahlia confronted him. "I did it for us. He is your son, and you come from such a prestigious family. Wouldn’t you be ashamed knowing that you will have a woman with a shady background and no manners to continue your legacy?"

"I like her," Dahlia said. "Despite her flaws, Katherine is exactly the kind of woman that I want to be as my daughter-in-law. She is as kind as she is strong. She is a great mother as well. What more do you need?"

"She’s not like us. She’s born as a commoner," Marlon scorned. He had no intention of changing his way because this was the idealism that he held since he was young. "Have you seen what happened to our family? We got ruined because of Penny. That low-born street skank ruined everything for us, and Katherine will also do the same."

"Is it really Penny’s fault that you can’t control your penis back then?" Dahlia rolled her eyes. "As much as I hate her, it still takes two to tango. You fucked her, and she gave birth to your son. I won’t abandon an innocent child just because of two irresponsible pieces of shit."

Henry scoffed and added, "Besides, don’t you see that your actions ruined your family? You killed James, put my mother in a mental hospital, ambushed the woman I love, and still expect us to be a family? Don’t joke, Marlon. I’m not a braindead idiot that will accept all the abuse from you."

Marlon felt that he had been persecuted and wronged by the two people he wanted to see the most. In his mind, he did everything to protect the dignity of his family, yet everyone saw him as this ruthless man.

But he was truly so exhausted right now. He had been fighting with so many people for so long, and all he wanted was peace while surrounded by people he loved.

"So this is how you repay me?" Marlon asked. "After all I’ve done for the two of you, you’re just going to force me to sign this and let me rot in here?"

"Yes," Henry said without hesitation while Dahlia said nothing. "Come on, Marlon. Why don’t you make it easy for all of us? You’ve been a shitty father for so long. This is how you redeem yourself."

"You!" Marlon wanted to get up and beat the shit out of this ungrateful son. But his body was weak, and he could only glare at Henry without doing anything.

It was actually comical for Henry. He remembered how he was scared of his father because Marlon always had that disgusted face when looking at young Henry.

Henry knew his presence was unwanted, so he clung to Dahlia as she was the only one who accepted him.

Now that the situation had flipped, he felt nothing but anger towards the man who had neglected him for so long.

"I’m not signing this! You two can fuck off and leave me alone!" Marlon yelled with all of his remaining strength.

Henry’s smirk disappeared, and his eyes showed a deep hostility towards the man who brought him into this world, only to scorn him since he was just a child.

This was the same man who killed his brother, imprisoned his mother, and ambushed his lover.

This bastard needed to die.

"Are you really going to kick us out?" Henry grinned again, but this grin was malicious. Even Dahlia was taken aback.

"I don’t need both of you! I am Marlon Grant! I will fucking buy you two if I want!" Marlon yelled. He continued to get worked up until he felt severe pain in his heart.

He winced and held his heart. His gaze began to blur as he was enduring an excruciating pain.

Dahlia clenched her arms even tighter than before. She was a loyal woman at heart. She only fell in love once in her life, and it was for Marlon Grant.

She hated him now, but that didn’t mean the love had completely vanished.

After all, they had been together for more than four decades. She would be lying if she didn’t have a hint of sympathy.

Marlon stared at Henry and Dahlia and realized how cold they were even though he was really near the death door.

He wouldn’t live for a long time. He knew that. So he just wished that Dahlia and Henry could show a little bit of pity for this old man at least.

"I won’t show you pity, Marlon," Henry said coldly. "I’m just telling you to sign it before you make it difficult for my Mom because she will have a headache having to handle everything while slowly transferring the asset to me instead. I think you love my Mom enough not to give her a hard time."

Faced with the pressure coming from Henry, Marlon took a deep breath until his chest didn’t hurt as much. He turned his head towards Dahlia, trying to gain her sympathy by saying, "I don’t know if I can last to see the dawn, so can you at least forgive me for what I’ve done wrong, at least just for a few moments?"

"Please embrace me, Dahlia. I am just a lonely old man. I want to be with my wife before I die..."

...

Dahlia clenched her arms even tighter until she couldn’t hold it anymore. She took a deep breath to calm down and said, "Sign everything Henry gives you, then I will accompany you for the night. You can’t do anything sexual to me, nor can you kiss me. I can only hold your hand until you fall asleep, Marlon."

"Mom, you don’t need to do that!" Henry raised his voice once he realized his Mom was about to compromise. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

He wanted to grab the document from Marlon’s hand, but the old man clenched it as hard as he could, "You piece of shit! Give it back to me!"

"No! I will sign it! I will sign everything!" Marlon insisted. "I will give anything as long as my wife can stay with me!"
