“Anyone knows how to move on, including me. But it's too questionable that you react even if this matter has nothing to do with you. Don't think that getting pregnant can lead to success overnight,” I countered, couldn't dare to hold it any longer.
"You!" She reacted and awkwardly fell silent.
Physically drained, I had no desire to continue arguing with Selene and Caelan. Besides, in the end, I was terrible in their eyes.
Furthermore, dredging up past sincerity would only leave me feeling embarrassed.
I gestured toward the door and said, “Please, leave. I can't welcome you here, so move out!”
Selene stood with her hands on her hips, glaring at me.
She said, "Thalia, what’s this about? I understand you’re upset that Caelan doesn’t care for you, but this is your marital property. The house is in Caelan’s name. How can you just kick us out?"
I responded, “Is Caelan's name on the property deed?”
“Of course not! The money to buy this house came solely from my mother and me,” I confirmed.
Back then, when he proposed to me while still broke, I feared others would label him a gold digger. To protect his dignity, I claimed that the house was his purchase.
Even after he made a fortune, he insisted on staying here, saying it was closest to the company and he didn’t want to renovate a new place.
But then again, this property was in my name.
With that, I fixed a cold gaze on Caelan.
“Caelan, this is my home. As you should know, I’m asking you to leave,” I commanded, making my voice clear.
Caelan frowned but took a step closer to Selene.
Selene, sensing that I was pushing too hard, quickly intervened.
"Thalia, don’t be like this. Just because you’re a housewife and the house is in your name doesn’t mean you can be so harsh. In today’s legal world, we all check the property deed.”
Before Selene could continue, I cut her off, “Pack your things and leave. Don’t worry about where to stay; you can go to a hotel for the night. Caelan will cover the room fee.”
I was so enraged that I nearly laughed out loud.
I grabbed the water bottle from the table and splashed it on their faces.
"Your words are so foul; it’s clear you don’t brush your teeth. Let me help with that!" I exclaimed.
Selene screamed and she and Caelan both stumbled backward in panic.
Caelan slipped and fell to the ground, accidentally pulling Selene down.
She immediately clutched her stomach and cried out in pain.
