Selina's original plan was to get a divorce certificate with Harold in the morning and then set off for the trip in the afternoon. She had asked Jean to book the flights and hotels for her. She wanted to heal her negative emotions with the beautiful landscape

However, Harold didn't show up. She knew that he regretted the divorce, but he did not have the face to come to her to ask for forgiveness.

She thought coldly in her heart that since he said hurtful things, he had to bear the price.

Why would he decide whether to divorce or not alone?

He didn't have any respect for her!

If he didn't want a divorce, he must apologize to her sincerely and beg her to go back, only then would she consider whether to forgive him.

After a toss-up, Jean and her mother returned home. It was quite late, after a simple lunch, Jean took her mother to the airport.

Jean had just driven back from the airport when she received a call from the nanny saying that her dad was really sick this time.

Jean pondered for a while and went home.

When she entered the door, the nanny greeted her and whispered, "When your mother called me to explain what medicine your father should take, your father learned that she was going on a trip, and he was pissed off, and he also heard your mother scold him for being a coward."

Jean was there when her mother made the call, and she thought that her mother's scolding of her father was very reasonable and cool, yet she did not expect her father to hear it.

Well, her father should have been pissed off by her mother.

Jean went upstairs to her father's bedroom and saw him lying on the bed looking weak. Jean felt a little sad seeing that, after all, he was her father.

Yet Harold gritted his teeth as soon as he saw her and complained, "Your mother has gone too far! She even has the mood to travel when I am suffering?"

The guilt and discomfort in Jean's heart disappeared in an instant. He deserved the hatred.

She stood by the bedside and said lightly, "You are going to divorce her, why should she care about you? You can lie in bed when you feel unwell, but she can't go for a trip to relax when she is uncomfortable?" "You are suffering on the surface; she is suffering inside."

Harold couldn't retort.

Jean was furious.

Her father took his physical discomfort as a matter of fact. He made the servants see him suffering and made it look like her mother had bullied him mercilessly.

And her mother's traveling at this time seemed to be unforgivable.

Her mother didn't show it, but one could imagine how humiliating is it for a woman to be proposed to be divorced by her husband.

Jean looked at her father's expression of annoyance and anger, and spoke again, completely unconcerned that he was unwell, "So you still didn't realize that it was your fault?" "When you accuse my mother of being excessive, why don't you think about your excesses?"

"You hurt her by proposing a divorce because she didn't agree with you."

Harold yelled, "Get out!"

Everyone said Jean was a sweet daughter but he felt like she was born to torture him.

"I will." Jean was expressionless, "But I have a few words to remind you before that."

"My mother has made up her mind this time, if you regret it, then you must apologize to her and beg for her return sincerely."

Harold almost jumped out of bed in anger, "Go on dreaming!"

Apologize and admit his mistake? Beg her to come back?

She wanted him to reduce himself so much?

Who she thought she was!

"My mother said that if you refuse to apologize and admit your mistakes when she comes back from travel, she will replace a lawyer and for divorce." Jean conveyed her mother's message.

She wasn't going to say this, she thought that after a few days of traveling, maybe her mother's anger would be dissipated. She thought that her father could recognize his mistake during this time, and apologize to her mother when she returned.

Unexpectedly, Jean was so angry hearing her father's words that she made this speech she didn't want.

After she said this, Jean turned around and left without looking back. Harold was pissed off hearing that Selina was going to replace a lawyer.

Jean left home and went to work without looking back, devoting all her energy to work.

Arthur had a busy morning. He was about to ask Jean for lunch when he received a call from Judith's father, who was now the mayor of Zoshalor. He invited Arthur to lunch. Arthur agreed.

He knew that this would not be a simple lunch. Judith's dad, Marco, must have invited him because of his explicit rejection of Judith.

But Arthur was not ashamed. He and Jean were in love. Judith should have expected the humiliation when she pestered him.

Marco booked the table at a quaint restaurant. The atmosphere of the first half of the meal was relatively harmonious. Marco had been talking to Arthur about some hospital planning and urban development. Arthur remained calm. He talked about whatever the mayor mentioned.

In the end, Marco can't hold on anymore. He took the lead in asking Arthur, "Arthur, are you sure you won't consider Judith anymore?"

"Sorry." Arthur sincerely apologized, "I have fallen in love with Jean. I can't consider anyone else."

A trace of reluctance appeared on Marco's excellently maintained face. He persuaded, "As a man, your vision should be bigger, you should care more about your future and career. Love should be put in second place."

"I am in politics, you are in business, and the marriage between our families will make us invincible, you know this, right?"

For the mayor, it is not only a matter of his daughter's marriage but also his career.

Behind Arthur was not only the lofty status of the Hudgens family and Riverside City Hospital but also the major companies and industries related to Julian, Ezra, and Phil, Arthur's three friends, Julian and Ezra's influence in the business world was needless to say. Arthur and the Hudgens family itself had a lot of status in the medical field. Phil was a top lawyer whose name was renowned by everyone. With Arthur, he would get the support of Julian, and he will surely prosper in the future.

At his age, if he could didn't get promoted, his career was almost fixed here, so he set his sights on Arthur when he learned that Arthur was coming to Zoshalor to settle down and establish a branch hospital. He certainly didn't have a chance to draw Arthur to him, so he could only think of marrying his daughter to Arthur. Therefore, he asked Judith to meet Arthur at that night's reception banquet.

He knew that her daughter would like Arthur, a handsome and rich man.

But he didn't expect Arthur to reject his daughter for Jean from Lorlene Jewelry.
