Chapter 522: How To Tame Your Wife 

At this moment, Ethan had no idea what was on his father-in-law’s mind.

He smiled dejectedly at him and said, "There’s some sort of misunderstanding between me and Janet.Itturns out it’s all my fault."

Beal said, "It’s actually very common for young couples to have conflicts and misunderstandings duringthe course of their relationship.Life is full of ups and downs.It’s inevitable that the two of you willquarrel.As long as the misunderstandings are cleared up in the end, there shouldn’t be a problem."

Looking at Beal’s calm expression, Ethan knew that he must have experienced this firsthand.

"I have no clue how to make her feel better.I feel that everything I try to do is wrong."

Ethan let out a long sigh.

"Sometimes you’ll feel that even though you didn’t do anything wrong and even though you havesincerely apologized, your wife still won’t forgive you.Does that ever happen to you?" Beal askedeagerly.

Ethan nodded obediently.

Beal clapped his hands and said in a firm voice, "That’s right! That’s exactly how Johanna is.They’rereally mother and daughter.Whenever they get angry, there’s no way they’ll listen to reason."

It really looked like he had finally found someone who could understand him.

He then began to complain to Ethan, "You have no idea what I’ve gone through all these years.Janetmust really be like her mother.Whenever she gets angry, it’s hard for her to listen to anyone.And whenyou make another mistake in the future, she’ll bring up the past again.Am I right?"

Ethan overall had the same feeling.

After listening carefully to Beal’s words, he mulled it over in his head for a while and nodded.

"Let’s work together from now on.Don’t worry about it.I’ll help you with Janet,"

Beal whispered in Ethan’s ear.

Ethan didn’t really believe Beal could actually help him out.

After all, he happened to be a hen-pecked husband.He didn’t even have a say in the White household.

However, Ethan had nowhere else to turn to now.

"So, what’s your suggestion, Mr.White?"

"Waiting around here is pointless.Would you like to have a drink with me instead? I’ll tell you myexperiences in regard to my marriage," Beal said as he clutched Ethan’s arm.

Ethan nodded.

After that, he followed Beal to the indoor bar to have a drink.

They drank together at the bar counter located in the dining room.

After so many years Beal finally found someone who was in a similar situation as him.

"Even though Johanna has a bad temper, whenever I’m angry, she’ll lower herself to try and comfortme."

Thinking about the way Beal humbled himself to serve the fruit platter to Johanna while she waswatching TV, Ethan really doubted the authenticity of his words.

But he didn’t say anything in regard to that matter.He took a sip of his wine and listened quietly whileholding the glass in his hand.

Seeing the serious expression on Ethan’s face, Beal immediately became talkative.

"Johanna actually has the same character as Janet.You can’t be overly good to them.Sometimes, youneed to act tough and lay down the law.Back then, Johanna was a fierce business woman, but undermy persuasion, she still went back to the family and became a housewife," Beal said as if he was proudof himself.

"That’s how clever I was.What you need to do to tame your wife…"

"Mr.White, you’re drunk right now."

Ethan suddenly caught a glimpse of the woman at the door and immediately interrupted Beal’s rant.

Beal shook his hand and said in a serious voice, "What the hell are you talking about? I’ve only dranktwo glasses of wine.I’m totally sober!"

Ethan kept winking at him to secretly signal to him that someone was at the door.

However, Beal didn’t notice Ethan’s hint at all and went on to talk about his methods of tamingJohanna.

Ethan had to get up and interrupt him, "Mr.White, I think I want to head to bed now."

After hearing this, Beal finally felt something was wrong and looked back at the door of the dining room.

Johanna was standing by the door for who knew how long, with her arms crossed over her chest,looking at the two of them with a smile on her face.

It appeared that she had heard everything She gave Beal a calm look and said, "Go on, I want to learnabout your ways of taming your wife."

The next second, Beal stood up at once like a misbehaved school kid.

He forced out a smile and said awkwardly, "Honey…"

"Let’s go back to our room! And talk about what you just said!"

Johanna’s face suddenly turned serious and her eyes looked so intimidating that even Ethan wasstartled when he turned to look at her.

Beal bowed his head down and followed Johanna into their room quietly.

That night, Janet still didn’t allow Ethan to enter her room, so he had no other choice but to sleep in theguest bedroom.

On the next morning, when Ethan heard some noises, he made his way out of the bedroom and sawthat Janet was wearing beautiful clothes and changing her shoes with a bag in her hand at the door.

It looked like she was going out.

Ethan made his way up to her and said, "Honey, I’ll drive you wherever you want to go."

Janet didn’t even bother to look at him and simply ignored him.She put on her shoes, turned around,and proceeded to leave the house.

In the next few days, Ethan had been staying with the Whites.

Janet continued to ignore him as if he wasn’t there at all.He was just like an invisible guest in theirhome that she couldn’t care less about.
