Chapter 799 Everything Is Settled


    Carlson was really concerned about Anthony. He was their only son and he could not bear to see him


    break down right in front of his eyes. Anthony was getting torn apart because of his mother''s


    stubbornness. The only way in front of him was to make Laura understand the situation no matter how


    difficult it was. "Did you hear what our son said? Just reflect on yourself," Carlson said in a serious


    tone. Though he knew that Laura was in no mind to negotiate on this matter, he still raised this topic


    thinking of Anthony.


    Laura got even angrier. She red at Anthony and said, "I was causing trouble out of nothing? Why

    doesn''t he care about my feelings? No mother will agree her son to marry an infamous woman like


    Sheryl. I''m telling you, if he is so stubborn, then I am no less. I am telling you, he will bring that woman


    home, but only over my dead body."


    She sneered and continued, "Why can''t you see Sheryl''s true face clearly? Or are you blind? The


    moment she realized that you couldn''t marry her, she broke up with you heartlessly and even made


    your father lose his job. I must have all of these matters clear with her!"


    Laura suddenly realized that she would not be able to talk to Sheryl after she moved out tomorrow.


    Hence, she decided to meet Sheryl once again. "I have to meet her right now, otherwise I will have no


    chance after tomorrow."


    "Haven''t you had enough, yet?" Both Carlson and Anthony said at the same time.


    Carlson looked at Laura with helpless eyes and said, "Think of your rude behavior towards Sheryl. My


    job got suspended by Uncle Arthur and I can''t return to work until his anger is pacified. If you go on


    causing more trouble, we will face more severe consequence. Laura, I beg of you. Just show some


    mercy to me and stop being so stubborn, please."


    "Mom, Dad is right."


    Anthony persuaded Laura, "Do you really want to divorce my father?"


    "Of course not."


    Laura looked at her son and admitted, "I have spent so many years with him and we went through so


    many hardships together. I can''t even think of my life without him."


    "So why can''t you just stop saying those stupid words that would annoy him?" Anthony heaved a sigh


    and said, "Dad is still very angry now. Please say some soft words to him."


    Laura''s mood was pacified by Anthony''s words. She looked at Carlson cautiously and became silent.


    She had told Carlson that she didn''t care if Carlson divorced her. But then she took back her words


    because she felt that it was too embarrassed to get divorced at such an old age.


    Besides certain things were easily said than done. Carlson was really a perfect husband and took care


    of her with all his heart. If they divorced, she didn''t know how to spend the rest of her life alone.


    So she mellowed down her temper before approaching her husband. Then she sat beside him and


    tried to console him, "Darling, I know it was all my fault for what happened with you today. I didn''t


    expect that old jerk..." Laura stared at Carlson who red at her when she uttered that word and


    corrected herself, "No, sorry... I mean, I didn''t expect that Uncle Arthur could treat you like this. If I had


    known he would make such a decision, I wouldn''t have said those harsh words."


    She looked at Carlson timidly and suggested, "How about me visiting Uncle Arthurter, telling him that


    it was all my fault, and pleading him not to get you involved in this matter. Do you think it okay?"


    "Don''t!" Carlson cast a cold nce at Laura and said, "You can only make the matter worse if you visit


    him once again. Laura Ding, I have said it clearly that our marriage is over. Let''s get divorced."


    "Dad, don''t say that, please." Anthony smiled bitterly and said to Carlson, "You two have spent so many


    years together. How can you get divorced only for this trivial matter?"


    He nced at Carlson and added, "It is all because of me. I am the one who should be med for all


    this trouble that has fallen upon both of you. Why are you losing your temper on her alone?"


    Carlson was rendered speechless. What Laura did disgusted him, but he didn''t mean to really divorce


    her. He just wanted to threaten her in this way. But if she didn''t stop causing trouble for Sheryl after all


    this, he couldn''t bear to live with her any more.


    Anthony looked at his father and said, "Now that it was caused by me, I should deal with it myself. Dad,


    I will visit Grandpa Arthur and apologize to him. No matter what punishment he gives me, I will ept it


    as long as he agrees to let you go back to work."


    ''No, you can''t go there."


    Laura interrupted immediately, "All the members of the Zhao family are devious people. If you go and


    apologize to them, they will use and punish you mercilessly. Just let me go there. You can''t go!"


    "Don''t try to mess it up once again!" Carlson was yet again annoyed by Laura''s words.


    Anthony said to Laura immediately, "I can handle this matter. You should just console Dad."


    Laura nced at Carlson timidly and became silent.


    Anthony turned to Carlson and asked, "Dad, do you think it okay to deal with it in this way?" This was


    the only way he could make up for the debacle that was bothering his parents. Somewhere, he felt


    responsible for all this.


    Carlson heaved a sigh and answered, "Okay, we can give it ast try ording to what you said."


    "So..." Anthony glimpsed at Laura and asked, "What about you and Mom? Will you still insist on...


    divorcing her?"


    Laura looked at Carlson as he hesitated for a while and said, "I don''t want to divorce her either, but you


    can see it for yourself that she is such an unreasonable woman. I am afraid I can''t bear her any more if


    she continues to be like this."


    "Don''t worry about that, Dad." Anthony smiled and said to Carlson, "She has realized her mistake when


    you threatened her that you would divorce her. I promise she will refrain her emotion and won''t do


    something stupid like today. Am I right, Mom?"


    Laura had a surprised look on her face but then she nodded in an affirmative manner and replied, "Yes,


    yes. I won''t make the same mistakes like I did today."


    Laura walked up towards Carlson. "Darling, I know I always had a bad temper. Thank you for tolerating


    me for all these years. We have been together for so many years; we can''t live alone without each


    other at this age.


    You don''t like my bad temper, right? I will change. Just give me a chance to prove it," Laura said in a


    pleading voice.


    Carlson was convinced as he saw Laura''s earnest eyes. Looking at Laura, he didn''t agree or refuse but


    just said, "Fine, just do as Anthony said. I warn you I won''t spare you if you try to cause any new


    trouble secretly."


    Laura was relieved as she heard Carlson''s words. She knew he was convinced so she promised,


    "Don''t worry. I will always listen to you from now on. I won''t let today''s incident happen again. You will


    see it for yourself when the timees. I promise."


    "I hope so."


    Carlson gave a bitter smile. He still couldn''t help worrying about the fact that whether his decision was


    right or not.


    Laura was so d to see that even Anthony let out a sigh of relief finally.


    As Anthony got a temporary relief of saving his parent''s marriage, another fear grabbed his mind. That


    fear was truly unnerving. He shuddered at the very thought of meeting Arthur. He knew that it was


    going to be very difficult for him considering Arthur''s unfriendly attitude towards him.
