Chapter 378
With his lips tightly pursed into a straight line, Jimmy''s gaze was cold as he smashed the
information on the surface into pieces and threw it into the trash can.
After that, he sat in the chair and didn''t say anything for a while, while he smoked silently.
The subordinate could not figure out what he was thinking. In fact, he wanted to ask something, but
Jimmy''s face was as cold as ice. However, he didn''t dare to speak, so he just sat there, and didn''t
dare to move.
After a long time, Jimmy came to his senses when the cigarette was burnt out. When he saw his
subordinate still sitting opposite him, he asked with a frown, "Why are you standing here? Don''t you
need to work?"
"Uh, I do."
"Then, get lost."
Obviously, he was in a bad mood, so how could his subordinate dare to provoke him? Immediately,
he hurried out of the room.
When Jimmy was alone again in the office, he grabbed his phone and made a call. After a while, the
call was connected, and the soft voice of a woman was heard, "Hello..."

"Where are you?"
At that moment, Jimmy directly interrupted her and asked.
"At home."
"Wait for me. I will being over now." After Jimmy finished his words, he dropped the call and got
up to leave.
As soon as Anna finished preparing thest dish, the doorbell rang. Immediately, she put down the
cutlery in her hand and went to open the door.
Then, Jimmy darted in.
"Jimmy, I''ve just finished preparing lunch. You haven''t eaten lunch yet, right? Come over and have
some. These are all your favorite dishes."
With a smile, Anna went to hold his arm, but unexpectedly, Jimmy shook her off. Coldly, he looked
at her and said, "You went to meet Ariah?"
The strength he used to shake her off was a little too strong, and it caused Anna to be thrown onto
the wall. The skin on her elbow was rubbed off, and she felt a heartwrenching pain. However, she
did not deny it and nodded, "I went to meet her for a short while in the morning, and I left after a
while." "Anna!" Furiously, he called her name. "Didn''t I tell you not to look for her in the future? Are
you deaf?"
Uncontrobly, Anna''s body flinched as she looked at him timidly and said, "Jimmy, don''t scold me."
When Jimmy saw her pale face, he took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Tell me, why did
you go and find her?"
"Tell me."
"I went to help you with the divorce. I couldn''t stand seeing you in such pain, so I went to her and
asked her to divorce you, so that you both can be liberated."
At that moment, Jimmy was furious. The muscles on his face were trembling.
"Who asked you to go find her and talk to her like that? Do you really think that I dare not do
anything to you?"
The thing was, Ariah had always hated him bitterly. Although she had long known that there was
something between him and Anna, she had been holding it in and acted as if nothing had
happened. It was only when Anna came looking for her that her emotionspletely copsed.
In fact, Ariah hated Anna as much as she hated him.
Now, Anna had actually gone to the hospital to say those words to Ariah, wasn''t that the same as
stabbing her in the heart?
However, Jimmy rarely had such a bad temper with Anna. At that moment, she was so scared that
she froze on the spot, as her lips trembled and she couldn''t speak.
Meanwhile, Jimmy couldn''t be bothered to look at her as he sat down on the sofa, lit another
cigarette, and started smoking. After smoking half a cigarette, he raised his head and looked at her,
"Ariah is very hot-tempered. Did she p you when you went to look for her?"
How could Ariah control her temper when the mistress of her husband was standing right in front of
her?
When Anna saw that Jimmy took the initiative to talk to her, she knew that his temper must have
been reduced by more than half. Then, she walked over and sat down beside him as she answered,
"No, she didn''t hit me. She was so seriously injured that she couldn''t even get out of bed. How
could she hit me? Instead, it was her friend that was with her, who stood up for her."
When Jimmy heard that answer, he smiled. Indeed, Sharon''s friendship with Ariah was also built
during the years when Stanley was missing.
Women really were strange creatures. Clearly, he remembered that Ariah once had crush on
Stanley when she was younger, and he didn''t think that she would be able to have such a deep
rtionship with Sharon.
As Jimmy looked down and inhaled his cigarette, he asked in a low voice, "What did she do when
you went there?"
"Herplexion wasn''t very good, and her face looks pale," After Anna observed his expression,
she asked, "Jimmy, don''t you want to divorce Miss Myers?"
Instantly, Jimmy''s stopped smoking. A momentter, he sneered, but he didn''t say a word.
However, his actions made Anna anxious. "She had already cheated on you. Jimmy, are you still
not willing to divorce her? She had gotten herself another man, and you even caught her
cheating..."
"Shut up!" In a stern voice, Jimmy chided her. Violently, he kicked away the coffee table in front of
him and his eyes were filled with blood. "Don''t think that I won''t beat women, and don''t you think
that I don''t dare to beat you. If you dare to mention it again, I will not care who your father is!"
Scared out of her wits, Anna didn''t dare to say anything else. It was because Ariah had entered the
hospital that Jimmy had gotten wasted, and she somehow overheard by chance when he was
muttering to himself.
Only then she knew that Ariah had hooked up with another man behind Jimmy''s back.
Three dayster, when Ariah was discharged from the hospital, Sharon sent her home. The house
was clean as if someone hade to clean it.
A first, Sharon thought it was cleaned by Stanley, but he answered, "I really didn''t do it. I''ve been so
worried these days that I even forgot Jimmy hade to make a scene before Ariah was
hospitalized. Now that the room is so clean, I believe it must have been done by Jimmy."
At that moment, Sharon pursed her lips. "If Jimmy still has feelings for Ariah, why did he do things
that would hurt her?"
However, Stanley looked forward, but he didn''t say anything.
Although the intuition of women was always urate, sometimes the intuition of men was quite
good too. From Jimmy''s expression when he found out about the rtionship between Ariah and
Ro, Stanley knew that he still had feelings for Ariah.
Although Jimmy was a bit frivolous, he wasn''t that wretched to be having an affair.
It made Stanley feel that something was amiss, but he couldn''t seem to figure out what was off.
If he really loves Ariah, even if it was a mistake he made before they got married, he would
definitely cut ties with the woman the moment he was sure about his feelings for Ariah.
If Stanley had the intention to investigate, he might be able to find some clues.
But he didn''t want to do that. What happened between Jimmy and Ariah was a problem between
them, and only the two could solve it. No matter how others persuaded, it wouldn''t help much.
It was better for the doer to undo what he had done.
In fact, Sharon hadn''t been home for several days. The moment she returned, she really felt that
there was no ce like home. After she took afortable bath, she dried her hair and came out of
the bathroom. However, she heard Stanley''s voice in the living room which was obviously lowered.
He was on the phone.
"As a businessman in the business world, it''s better to not be soft-hearted if you want to get to the
top. This time, we''ve managed to push Shawn to the edge, and we can easily put an end to him if
we add more fuel to the fire. Don''t let your guards down yet. By whatever means, we must throw
him into the quagmire this time and make sure he won''t be able to rise again..."
The sun in the afternoon was very warm, and it was such good weather. Meanwhile, the man in the
living room sat on the sofa as the sunlight prated through the window and fell onto his body.
With his brows lowered, he spoke nonchntly as if he was reporting about the weather forecast,
but his tone was extremely cold.
