Part 2After Divorcing That jerk, I Married His Older Brother

She stormed into my office, screaming at the top of her lungs, “Avery Harper, get out here! You homewrecker! You’re disgusting! You’re gonna pay for this!”

Her voice echoed through the entire office. I calmly pulled out my phone, dialed Graham, and put it on speaker in my pocket.

This mess was his family’s problem to deal with, after all.

Lily’s mom, ever the drama queen, started her performance the moment she saw me.

“Oh, Avery, you’re just jealous that my Lily is prettier than you. She’s got a better husband, a better life, and you can’t stand it. You just want to ruin her marriage! Where’s your boss? You should be fired, you filthy homewrecker.”

Her whole speech about how I was jealous of her daughter’s perfect husband would’ve been funny if it weren’t for the fact that her “perfect” daughter was the one sleeping with mine.

Seeing her slap her thigh and roll on the floor in hysterics was honestly nauseating. I didn’t realize Lily’s mom was this kind of woman. What a learning experience.

I checked my phone. Graham had hung up, but I wasn’t worried. I turned on the camera function, recording her tantrum for future reference.

Then, I turned to my coworkers, saying, “Sorry about this, everyone. I’ve run into some trouble, but could you all be witnesses? In case this lady claims I hurt her later.”

Lily’s mom, clearly not expecting this, looked shocked.

But she wasn’t someone who backed down easily.

“Yes, everyone come and look! This is the woman who’s trying to ruin my daughter’s marriage.”

Well, alright, Mrs. Carmichael. You asked for it.

“If we’re going to do this, let’s talk about how I ruined your daughter’s marriage, shall we? Was it because I told your son-in-law that your daughter was cheating?”

Lily’s mom shrieked, “No! That’s a lie! You’re just slandering her. How dare you break up a family? Why don’t you just die?”

She came at me, trying to hit me. I quietly rolled up my sleeves, ready to teach her a lesson.

But suddenly, a tall figure stepped between us, blocking her from me.

Graham had arrived. He nodded at me before turning his fury on Lily’s mom. “Enough.”

Lily’s mom slapped her thighs dramatically, screaming, “This is it! You’re all trying to kill me! Where’s the boss? I need someone to handle this!”

Peeking around Graham’s shoulder, I said, “You really wanna keep this going? I’ve got some lovely bedroom photos of Lily and Dylan right here. I could show everyone, even your daughter’s coworkers. How about we take a look together?”

Hearing this, Lily’s mom bolted out of the office faster than a rabbit.

Guess her daughter told her about the divorce but left out the part about being caught cheating.

Graham, watching his mother-in-law flee, muttered an apology. “I’ll handle my family from now on.”

But clearly, his family had other plans.
