Talking To Her Is Just A Waste Of Time

As for Mina, her cheeks were red, but not swollen. she lean against Mrs Torres chest and continued to cry as if Rachel had really beaten her up. Mrs Torres face glow in anger as she remembers Rachel's face. She wished she had just disfigure Rachel's face instead.

***

When Rachel got home, they were all shocked to see her crying and her swollen and red cheeks. There was blood at the corner of her lips. Mrs beltran was furious. The last time Mrs Torres hit her daughter, she didn't do anything, but this time, she won't allow it to continue.

Johanna quickly placed an ice on Rachel cheeks and then applied an ointment. "Don't worry, Rachel, it will relieve you soon. You just need to rest and everything will be okay" Johanna said.

"Thank you" Rachel said and smiled.

"Who does she think she is? How dare her hit my daughter? I won't allow this anymore. This is getting too much and it has to stop right now" Mrs beltran said angrily and walked out of the house.

"Mom, please come back. Where are you going to?" Rachel immediately ran after her mother and grabbed her wrist. "Where are you going to?"

"I am going to their mansion. I want to teach that woman a lesson. Who does she think she is" Mrs beltran replied and pulled her hand from her daughter's, then she turned and walked away.

"Aunt, don't go there" Johanna said and tried to pull Mrs beltran back, but she evade her touch and walked faster.

"Mom please, forget about it" Rachel pleaded.

"Aunt, listen to us"

But Mrs beltran turned a deaf ears to all their pleadings. She don't care if she ends up in jail because of what she is going to do, or if she will be banned from the city. As long as she avenge her daughter.

She knew her daughter is really in love with Chad and she does not want her to do anything that will affect Chad, but she cares about her only daughter. She won't allow anyone to maltreat her daughter.

At the Torres mansion.

Mrs beltran yelled furiously, "You guys dare not hold me back. I want to see your madam right now"

But the security guards at the door blocked her and refused to let her in. Rachel and Johanna tried their best to pull her back home, but she evade their touch.

She raised her voice, "Ma'am Torres, I want you to come out now. Who do you think you are? How dare you hit my daughter?"

Meanwhile...

Inside the mansion.

The maids had already reported to Mrs Torres about the commotion outside. Mrs Torres frowned. She stood up from her bed.

She said, "Let her in" then she walked out of the room. She stood outside the mansion waiting for Mrs beltran. As soon as the security guards allowed Mrs beltran in, she walked up to Mrs Torres who was standing outside the mansion with her hands on her hips. Her eyes flashed angrily as she stepped forward reaching for her. As soon as she got to her, she raised her hand and slapped her on the face. Mrs Torres face turned to the side and she felt her cheeks burned hot

Johanna and Rachel opened their mouth in shock. They were not expecting aunt to slap madam Torres. Mrs Torres raised her hand and slapped Mrs beltran on the face. Rachel immediately rushed to her mother and pulled her back.

"Mom, that's enough"

Mrs beltran pulled away from her daughter and raised her voice, "I won't stop. Don't tell me to stop, Rachel. This woman thinks because we are poor she can step on us the way she likes. Yes, we are poor and they are rich, they have everything, money, power, but I won't allow them to mistreat us again. We are human beings like them and we have our rights"

Mrs Torres, Mina, her mother and Mina's friends came out when they heard Mrs beltran's voice. Mr Torres looked around and asked, "What's happening here?"

Mrs beltran turned to him and yelled, "Your so-called wife hit my daughter. This is what she did to her" she pointed at Rachel's cheeks.

Mr Torres eyes grew wide. He turned to his wife and asked, "Why did you do that?"

"Because she deserves it. I don't like her for my son and I will never like her. She is a lowlife girl. She is poor. Her family is poor and is that the person you want for your son? Disgusting"

"Mom"

They all turned back to see Chad coming towards them. He heard them shouting downstairs, so he came to check what was going on. Mina lowered her eyes and saw his hand bleeding. He had removed the iv from his hand. Mina immediately reached out her hand down to touch his hand, but he evade her touch and walked pass her.

He saw Rachel standing behind her mother and his face expression darkened when he saw her face. He walked over. He reached out his hand and touched her swollen cheeks. "Who did this to you?" his voice was cold.Rachel raised her head to look at his face and tears rolled down her cheeks.

"Why don't you ask your mother" Mrs beltran answered for Rachel.

Chad turned his head to look at his mother. His cold eyes were enough to freeze her body. He walked over and asked, "Why did you do that to her?"

"It's because she slapped Mina and I don't like her. Son, can't you see that this girl is after our money and power? If you marry her, she will take everything away" she said and held his hand.

Chad pulled his hand and glanced at Mina. "So you believe Mina?"

"Yes, I do. I saw Rachel slapped Mina myself"

"Rachel won't slap her without her doing something to annoy her"

Mrs Torres froze. Her face darkened even the more. Her son was supporting this witch. She opened her mouth to talk, but Chad has already turned his back on her. Chad walked towards Rachel.

"I am..."

"I am sorry Chad for causing you and your family so much trouble. We will be leaving now" she said, pulled her mother along with her and they all left the mansion.

Chad wanted to call out her name, but he started coughing. His mother walked over and tried to touch him, but he stepped backwards.

"Mom, what do you think I am? A baby? I am old enough to choose who I want. This is my life and not yours. You can't force me to love who I don't love. I am warning you, stay away from Rachel, or else, I will do what you don't like..." he paused and cough again, then he continued. "I don't care if you don't like her. I am the one in love with her not you" he said and walked away.

Mrs Torres stared at Chad's back disappear into the mansion. She turned to look at her husband and yelled angrily, "I don't know why you are always supporting that girl Rachel. She is nothing. Just nothing"

Mr Torres turned his head to look at her. "That is the person our son loves. We should respect his decision"

"Decision? Chad is just so immature. We are his parent and we should help him. We shouldn't leave him to make foolish decisions"

Mr Torres turned and walked away without answering her. He knew talking to her is just a waste of time. He pulled out his phone and called the doctor.

Few minutes later in Chad's room.

The iv has been inserted back into Chad's vein and the doctor injected the iv bag. He picked up his bag and said, "You should not allow him to stress himself. Do whatever he wants and also allow him to rest"

"Thanks so much, doctor" Mr Torres shook hands with the doctor and told the maids to escort him out.

Chad looked at their faces and said, "I want to talk to dad alone. All of you should leave"

Mrs Torres and Mina turned and left. After they left the room, Mr Torres turned his head to look at his son and asked, "What do you want to tell me?"

"Dad, please, I want you to go to Rachel's place and apologize for me. I know she will listen to you. Mom is really a pain in the neck and she thinks she is doing the right thing. I don't love Mima. Why can't she understand that?"

Mr Torres patted his son's back while saying, "Don't worry, I will do that for you. I will go to her place tomorrow morning, okay?"

Chad smiled and said, "Thank you, dad"
