Chapter 2299
Zayne lowered his head, and hisplexion turned extremely ashen.
Jenson said, "What on earth are you thinking? Are you going to be with her without any second thoughts or are you severing your ties with her and returning to your family?"
A pained look shed across Zayne''s eyes. He looked a t Emmy guiltily and said, "We''re no longer children, Emmy. We still have responsibilities on our shoulders. We can''t be willful. You should forget about me from now on."
Suddenly, Emmy staggered forward. She pulled
Zayne''s hand tightly and said with a weep, "Please, don''t leave me, Zaynie. I really do love you. I don''t care whether you seed in your business or whether you have a luxury car. I only love you."
Zayne''s resolve to turn around crumbled because of Emmy''s words.
His eyes were welling up with tears.
Emmy suddenly held onto him while crying like a child. "Just divorce her, Zaynie. Let''s get married, okay? I promise never to give you any dirty looks, and I''ll never dislike you for your mediocrity. We''ll respect each other forever."
Baby Robbie stared at them and murmured, "It''s
indeed quite hard to choose. One''s a gentle and caring young flower, while the other is simply a muse."
Jenson said, "What''s so hard about it? Humans aren''t some primitive beings that live on unadulterated emotions all their lives. Humans areplex social animals. To be recognized by society, they must have a correct outlook on the world and a noble character."
His cold words directed at Zayne and Emmy made them feel ashamed. They were unable to show their faces.
Jenson rolled his eyes at Zayne. Seeing how hard of a time he was having trying to separate from Emmy, Jenson yelled, "Don''t say that I didn''t give you a chance, Uncle. You have to give me an answer in half a day. If you go with her, I''ll head home immediately and tell Aunt Josie all about it. I''ll never allow her to continue to be deceived by you people."
Zayne pleaded, "Will you please be more humane, Jens? Can''t you give me two more days?"
Jens said, "The more I do that, the greater your mistakes will be and the greater harm it''ll cause Aunt Josie. I''m trying to save you here, so don''t take my kindness for granted."
Zayne loosened Emmy''s grasp and finally looked at her. He resolutely said, "Forget about me, Emmy. From now on, just treat me as a passerby." After speaking, Zayne left with determination.
Baby Robbie proceeded to stop Zayne by shouting,"
Uncle, Aunt Josie sent you out on an errand to get form. If you go home empty-handed, you''ll surely get a scolding."
Emmy stood there in a daze and whispered tearfully, "If she starts scolding you, Zaynie, don''t say anything."Copyright by N?v/elDrama.Org.
Zayne nodded at her.
Jens pulled Zayne into the sports car and drove him to the department store to quickly buy some form before speeding back home.
When Josie saw Zayne, she instantly
saw
turned into a shrewish wife who henpecked her husband. "I sent you out to buy form yet you were gone the entire afternoon?! Where on earth did you go fooling around, Zayne Severe?!"
Zayne sat on the sofa, depressed. He turned a deaf ear t o Josie''s roars.
Josie snarled a couple more times, but seeing Zayne''s lowered head and how he was not responding, she furiously left with reddened eyes.
Jenson and Baby Robbie stood at the door, at a loss. Baby Robbie decided to advise Zayne, "Uncle, Aunt Josie is about to cry. Go over and coax her."
Zayne scoffed. "She''s crying? A
l
person like her never takes into consideration other people''s feelings. All she does is vent out her frustrations to her heart''s content. Why on earth is she the one crying?"
Josie suddenly ran down the stairs and roared out with a flushed pair of eyes, "Do you really think that I like to rage at you so ungracefully out of nowhere, Zayne?! You''vepletely turned a deaf ear to everything I say, and you live like an invisible person i n front of me. I''m merely trying to get your attention!"
