Greedy Family

Author's POV

"Father, what should we do now? David will never agree? I can not let my daughter marry that mududer" John asked James.

"They are so shameless. How could they deny Father on face. He feed them, paid the school fees, paid the medicine bills and yet them denied when it was time for them to repay our kindness, Dad" Stella said in a low voice, her eyes fuming in anger..

She wanted revenge. She smirked and her eyes twinkling with cunningness thinking that illegitimate son and Lelia together. That bastard will kill you like he killed his mother. Just wait. You will die in his hand for sure.

"Dad, I want to kick out that maid from hospital then David will come to his sense" John said to his father but he did not reply.

James was quiet all the the time when a maid informed Lelia came and she wanted to meet them.

"What do you want to talk about? I have already told you my decision" James was annoyed seeing Lelia here again.

"I want to ask a question. Why do you want me to marry that man when you are aware that I am already engaged? Why are you planning to get me married to him just because you know your sweet granddaughter has been banging Liam?" Lelia asked looking at James.

"What the hell you are saying?" James was fuming with anger. He raised his hand to slap her when everyone came there.

"Dad" David rushed there. He stood in front of his daughter.

"Tell your daughter I will cut her tongue if she again spits nonsense" James shouted in anger. John held James. "Dad come down. We can not expect more from a low-born like her. How could say something like this about your cousin sister?"

"If you don't believe me then why don't you ask them" Lelia spoke up looking at the entrance. Lilly and Liam were standing there.

John's eyes widened in shock when he saw his daughter with Liam.

"What are you doing with him?" John was fuming in anger when he noticed them holding hands.

"Uncle, we love each other" Liam spoke up. Lilly lowed her hand scared.

What nonsense! You are engaged to Lelia. How dare you hook up with my daughter!" John was fuming with rage. He wanted to slap Lilly for this stupid act. If this news leaks that Lilly hooked up with her cousin's fiance it will harm his reputation.

"How dare you cheat on my daughter, you bastard" David shouted and punch Liam on his face.

He fall down. His nose started bleeding.

"Liam" Lilly shouted and held him." Uncle stop, Liam loved me not Lelia and I am pregnant!" Lilly said, holding Liam's hand. "I am pregnant with his child. So I can't marry anyone else. So, Lelia had to marry him on my place or cancel the wedding."

Liam was shocked. Lilly never told him that she was pregnant.

David was dumbfounded after hearing this.

Lelia went to her father and held his hand,"Come down Dad. A piece of trash like him don't worth your anger"

John looked at his daughter. He wanted to slap her. Stella looking at her husband's angry expression she protectively stood in front of her daughter. She was protective of her daughter and never scolded her even she commit mistake. She always put all the blame on Lelia.

"Honey, please come down. They are not children anymore. They know what is better for them. Why are you mad at our daughter?" Fiona hugged her daughter.

"Liam, leave now" James spoke up. When Liam left Lilly ran into her room.

John was still fuming in rage.

"I Know you didn't just come here for this. What do you want?" James asked Lelia.

"I will marry the person if you give me money for the operation" Lelia spoke up

"Dear, what are you saying? No you can not do this to yourself " David was nervous.

"Please Dad, let me do it. We have no other way. We all thought Liam was best for me but you saw the results. Let's accept the destiny. You must not tell mother about it" Lelia comfort her father.

"Very well, your mother will have the operation the next day of your marriage" James said

"Okay" Lelia said then they left from there..

At Hospital

"What happened to you both? Why are looking pale, dear?" Angelia asked sweetly cupping Lelia's pale face. David was standing beside her.

"Nothing Mom, I am just little tired. How are you feeling?" Lelia held her mother's weak hands and kissed them.

Angelia smiled at her daughter weakly.

"I am okay dear. Do not worry about me. How was your exam?" Angelia asked her.

"Great, Mom. Mom, we want to tell you something" Lelia looked at her father.

"What is it?" Angelia looked at David.

"You will get the operation next week" David forced a smiled.

"What! Where did you get money for operation? Did you go to Father for help?" Angelia understood why they were looking pale. She knew very well how James treated them.

"You don't need to think about it, Mom. You just need to stay strong. Very soon you will get well soon" Lelia smiled at her

"Dear, is everything okay between you and Liam?" Angelia asked her. Liam used to visit her but lately he didn't come to see her.

"Yes, Mom. Everything is okay. He is very busy with office works" Lelia lied to her.

"I see. I was afraid that you had fight with him" Angelia said when she noticed Lelia emgament ring was missing.

"Where is the engagement ring, dear? Why did you put it off?"

"Oh, I removed it before taking shower and forgot it put it" Lelia lied to her again.

Angelia was about to say something but David cut her off

"Dear, why don't you go out and buy some fruits for your Mom?"

"Sure, Dad" Lelia stood up and left from there.
