How to Tame a Villain Character-Chapter 176: Final Decision

Harry visited his in-laws while Claudia was busy practicing playing musical instruments with members of the Scarlet Community in preparation for the music festival. Harry brought lots of fruit and vitamins to his in-laws on a regular basis, which made Claudia’s parents feel embarrassed because they were always treated excessively.

"You are the best son-in-law. I never regretted you marrying my daughter, Harry," said Natasha, smiling happily.

"By the way, there is actually one thing I want to discuss with you guys."

"What do you want to discuss?" Yohanes bowed.

Harry slowly knelt before his father-in-law respectfully. "I want to make a deal with you guys."

Natasha suddenly squatted down and touched Harry’s shoulder. "Why are you suddenly kneeling, Harry? Are we asking too much of you?"

Harry shook his head. "I am actually very grateful because I have in-laws who are very kind and treat me as if I were their biological child. But, actually I feel like I don’t deserve your love."

Yohanes furrowed his brows. "All this time we have loved you very much because you have always loved us and your wife sincerely."

"The agreement I want to make with you is that if there is a big problem related to me, I want to return Claudia to you."

Yohanes’s eyes widened. "What do you mean, Harry?"

"Actually, I’m not Roger Harperwood’s biological child. But I am the son of a palace rebel. You could say I am part of the royal family too."

Natasha massaged her forehead which was starting to hurt. "So, you decided you wanted a divorce just because you were the son of a criminal?"

"Because I feel that my father will not remain silent when he sees me always living happily with Claudia and you. My father doesn’t like seeing me smile even though he always has a difficult life. That’s why, if one day something goes wrong because of me, I don’t want Claudia to stay by my side." freewebnøvel_com

"But, just getting a divorce doesn’t mean it can solve your problems, Harry," argued Natasha.

"I’m worried that one day my father will use me to take your wealth just for him. I don’t want to be his slave and hurt you guys."

"But, we still don’t want you to divorce. We love you very much, Harry."

"Your mother is right. Maybe we can solve your problem another way."

"My father will definitely not be silent, especially when he hears that you are going to expand the hotel to the San Marina area. It’s possible that my father also wanted to control that area. I’m worried that you guys will get hurt just because of this war."

Yohanes closed his eyes while exhaling in resignation. "Are you sure you will divorce my daughter one day?"

"Yes, Dad. This is for her safety and your safety. "After I succeed in defeating my father and ensuring that my father gets the punishment he deserves, I will return to you."

Natasha put on a pitiful face holding her daughter-in-law’s hand. "My daughter will definitely not forgive you. She really loves you more than us."

"I know. One day she will definitely hold a grudge against me. But, it’s better like that than if your life will be ruined because of me. Besides, I wanted to set a trap for my father."

"What are you planning?"

"When I filed for divorce, I wanted to share most of my assets with Claudia. Then, I would make a lot of demands as if I was the one who made Claudia feel hurt. This way, my father won’t target you to share your wealth with him. If Claudia and I really broke off our relationship, my father wouldn’t dare touch her."

After telling the real plan, Harry felt quite relieved because hiding this big thing made his shoulders very heavy. He was also relieved to see that his wife did not scold him because he had planned this for a long time and managed to hide it.

Now Claudia understands the reason why her husband insisted on divorce. Actually, because it was to protect the person he loved most. However, it was a shame that Harry failed to protect his father-in-law because he lost quickly to his biological father’s movements. Is divorce the only way to resolve all these problems quickly?

"You really want to protect me?"

Harry nodded and stroked his cheek. "I don’t want to lose you in my life. After everything is over, I will come back to you."

"How long do I have to wait for you? Two years? Five years? Ten years?"

"Actually, I lied to you again about the truth at dinner with the palace ministers. After dinner, I met my father by accident. We talked for a long time so I came home around 11 pm."

Claudia folded her arms. "What are you talking about that takes so long?"

"My father admitted that he killed my mother and your parents. The reason is very unreasonable because my mother cheated on me while your parents were used as an excuse because your parents made me live happily."

"Then, what about the orphanage children?"

"My father knows that Only Hope Orphanage was founded by my mother. That’s why he was very angry because my mother cared more about the orphanage children, so as a form of revenge, he burned down the orphanage without thinking twice and actually wanted all the orphanage children to die."

Claudia clenched both fists tightly. "I won’t let him kill all the good people just for his selfishness. He is a psychopath!"

"In my opinion, he is even more than a psychopath. That’s why, uncle, I mean King Godfrey never interacted with him when my father was still a member of the royal family."

"My parents’ sudden death, I increasingly hold a grudge against your father and feel like I want to kill him directly."

Harry flashed a confident smile as he held his wife’s hand. "I will kill him for you. I don’t want any criminals to interfere with our relationship again. Even though he is my biological father, I as his son must punish him in my own way. That’s why I want to break our relationship while I’m planning my revenge."

Claudia thought for a long time about making a decision that could affect her future. If she makes the wrong decision, then her relationship with her husband will really end.

"Okay, I will divorce you."
