Chapter 9: Stupid? Yes!
Listening to Jemma's question, Vernon felt his throat choke up.
She was right. No one really forced him into this marriage. In fact, if he had not seen how his future would turn out to be, he never had any reason to stop this marriage at all.
But how could he explain his situation to his family members? He can't say that he came from the future, right?
Everyone would look at him like he had gone crazy.
There is no way he would let his image turn into one of a crazy man just like that.
"It wasn't my intention, sister-in-law. I was drunk at that time. I didn't know what I had done at all," Vernon refused to speak the truth.
"You!" Vincent was angered and he pointed his finger at his younger brother once again.
Jemma placed a hand over his arm to calm him down.
Vincent took a deep breath and looked at his parents, "Father, Mother, I think you should go to Helena's parents and talk to them."
"But, what should I say, son? I can't face them right now at all," Father Ford felt ashamed of his son's actions.
Vincent sighed. He turned to look at his younger brother, hoping he would speak up. But he did not. He just lowered his head in guilt.
