Chapter 8: Just Want to Destroy Him

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

"Francis is going to be living here for a while. Maybe you can help him get a job, anything is fine. I hope he gets some training" Belland said to Mary over breakfast.

Mary assessed Francis. "What do you know how to do? What's was your major in college?"

Francis chuckled and tore off a piece of bread, not intending to heed Belland's request.

Belland said, "He was a medical student at New York University. He has a medical doctor's degree."

Mary covered her mouth in surprise. "Wow, your brother is studying medicine. That's amazing."

Francis sneered and glanced at Belland. "But some people don't think so, right?"

Mary looked puzzled. She felt that Belland and Francis did not seem to have a good relationship.

Belland explained to Mary, "Our family wanted him to enter business school, but Francis had always had his own plans. He went to medical school against the will of the family."

Mary was even more confused. "What's wrong with Francis choosing the life he wants?"

Belland smiled helplessly.

If it was an ordinary family, perhaps there was nothing wrong with it.

But in the Glatton family?

Belland shook his head. There was no way to explain this to his wife. At the same time, he also remembered that he had wanted to find an opportunity to explain things to his wife last night, but had lost himself in carnal desire once again.

Let's wait a little longer. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to wait until that matter was over before confessing, Belland thought.

Francis lowered his head and played with the ham slices on the plate. "In their eyes, as long as you do not follow their arrangements, it is the biggest mistake."

Mary shook her head. "I think your parents may just be a little paranoid. However, if you communicate well with each other, I believe that no one would not want their children to be happy, right, Belland?"

She suggested playfully, "Perhaps you, as an older brother, can mediate in the middle."

Francis looked up at Mary, and a smile appeared on his lips. "Unfortunately, he himself went against our paranoid parents on the most important decision, right, Belland?"

Belland smiled and didn't say anything. He just looked at Mary gently and firmly.

"Oh! Right! Our school's doctor, Old Peter, just quit his job last week. The school hasn't found a suitable person. Perhaps I can recommend Francis." Mary said in surprise.

Francis had a strange expression. "You want me to be a doctor in an elementary school? To treat the children's headaches and fever?"

Mary added, "And there are small bruises."

Francis said coldly, "I refuse."

Belland laughed, "It's decided then, unless you want to move out today."

--

In the morning, they left the house together.

Belland headed to his work district, while Francis got into Mary's old car and went to Preston Elementary School.

"Oh, come on, Francis. Don't look down on elementary school students. They are sometimes smarter than you. Be careful, you won't gain anything from them."

Mary couldn't help but laugh when she saw Francis' cold and unhappy face all the way.

Elementary school students smarter than him? Francis felt that his IQ had been insulted.

Mary looked at the man beside her who looked almost exactly like her husband and couldn't help but ask, "Is your relationship with Belland bad?"

Francis smiled. "Does our relationship look bad? It's not that bad."

Mary nodded with relief, but then she heard Francis say with a smile, "I have always thought to destroy him since I was a child."

Mary's heart stopped for a moment. "What?" She thought she heard wrong.

Francis put one hand in his pocket and leaned close to Mary's ear, breathing warm air into her ear. "I said, I just want to destroy him..."

Mary stared at Francis in disbelief.

The man had already sat back in his seat, staring straight ahead. "See, our relationship isn't that bad, is it?"

Mary had a strange expression on her face. He wanted to destroy his own brother. How was that not bad?

It did not matter if Francis was trying to tease Mary or if he really had the intention, Mary decided to stay away from him. At the very least, she had to be wary of this guy.

"You drive this kind of broken car to work every day? Belland, that guy is really tough." Francis sat uncomfortably.

Here we go again. Delusions of grandeur.

Mary shook her head.


Chapter 9: Uncle Jack’s Birthday Party

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Mary took Francis to the school and explained his situation to the principal. She didn't say much as she did not know him very well.

Francis then stayed alone in the principal's office for an interview.

Mary didn't think he had much chance of staying, especially after the conversation they had just had on the way. She felt that Belland's brother was slightly odd.

Odd in character.

With this attitude, it would be difficult to convince Principal Dick.

But to Mary's surprise, Francis came out of Principal Dick's room and lit a cigarette with a smug look on his face. "We'll be colleagues from now on, Miss Mary."

He looked at Mary. Today, Mary was wearing a black business suit with a white collared shirt. She had a pair of big glasses sitting on the bridge of her nose. She looked very conservative.

She seemed to be a completely different person at home.

At this moment, Mary was also surprised.

Did Principal Dick agree? He didn't even ask Francis to go back and wait for the phone call, but agreed to hire him on the spot?

Mary found it hard to believe. Moreover, the guy who had looked so reluctant half an hour ago seemed to want to stay.

He was indeed a strange guy.

That was Mary's assessment of Francis.

At the end of the morning class, Mary told Francis to go home by himself and handed him her car keys.

Mary herself got into the Belland's car, which was waiting for her by the school gate.

Today was Uncle Jack's birthday and they were going to Uncle Jack's house. His house was located at the Upper East Side of Central Park East in New York City.

Green Grid town was located south of Manhattan. It was less than an hour's drive from New York City and was considered a rich town. After graduating from New York University, Mary and her husband chose to live in Green Grid town.

It was mainly because the rent in the town was cheaper. Mary and her husband, who had just graduated, could not afford to pay too much rent.

Originally, this house was not something they could afford, but it had its own shortcomings such as the master bedroom did not have an en-suite bathroom.

Mary had used this to bargain with the landlord. Unexpectedly, the kind landlord agreed to Mary's price very quickly.

"Principal Dick is really too nice. He only did a simple interview and did not even ask Francis to prepare any materials before he agreed to let him take up the position. Principal Dick is really a good person." Mary said happily.

Although Francis' eccentric personality made her a little wary and distant, she was happy to be able to help her husband find a job for his younger brother.

Belland freed a long and slender hand and rubbed Mary's hair. "Principal Dick must have given Francis this opportunity because of my wife. Thank you, Mary."

He spent some time to kiss Mary on the lips. It was a very sweet kiss.

Mary pursed her lips and smiled. "It seems so. After all, I have worked diligently at Princeton Primary School for six months and have never made any mistakes."

Belland nodded in agreement. "An excellent primary school teacher like my wife will definitely be able to educate our children into elites in the future."

Belland had always wanted to have a child and Mary knew that. Although she was not prepared, she allowed him to occasionally act without contraception.

Unfortunately, until now, the heavens did not seem to be planning to reward Mary with this child.

This made Mary feel disappointed, but also a little secretly happy.

After all, with the heavy financial pressure and endless loans plaguing her and Belland currently, they were not ready for a child.

Belland had mentioned that he had an insurance policy that his parents had prepared for him, and he could settle all of Mary's loans, including her school loan and the mortgage on the house.

But Mary had refused, thinking that things would always get better if the two of them put in the effort.

She did not want Belland to give up the insurance that his parents had worked so hard to buy for him, just for her. Especially since Mary had not met his parents. How could she let her burden become a burden for Belland and his family?

They had already reached the upper east side.

From where they were, one could see the gatekeeper in uniform by the street, calling for a taxi for the owner of the mansion. A woman, dressed elegantly, led a well-groomed dog. She was heading to Central Park for a stroll with her child and nanny.

Mary looked at the beautifully decorated mansions by the street, and her eyes were filled with envy.

"Maybe we can buy a house here soon." Mary said casually.

"You can move here anytime, Mdm. Croft," Belland said with a smile.

Mary said with a smile, "You're so optimistic, Mr. Glatton."

Belland wanted to say something, but he hesitated. He organized his thoughts and began, "Mary, maybe it is time I confess to you..."
