“How do you want me to cooperate with you? I’m willing to do anything as long as that bitch dies.” Lori took a deep breath.


    Originally, she was still considering whether to refuse and the money offered by Isaias remained untouched.


    Since she had decided to cooperate, she might as well pay off the debt and focus on dealing with Jenna wholeheartedly!


    “As long as you are willing to cooperate with me, I have a way. You are currently renting a ce to live, right? Let’s live together so we can work on it better. I wille pick you up now,” Isaias said contentedly as he hung up the phone.


    Since he couldn’t have Jenna for now, he decided to have some fun with her best friend first.Content bel0ngs to N?vel(D)r/a/ma.Org.


    The Williams family’s study.


    Rhys pulled Jenna inside and mmed the door shut with a bang, his expression stern as he looked at her.


    “You keep saying that you already have someone you like, then tell me, who is that person? If you two really love each other, I will never stand in your way!”


    He increasingly felt that Jenna was deliberately finding an excuse to brush him off.


    But why does she have to do this?


    “He is my elementary school ssmate, don’t worry about it, it’s not your business anyway,” Jenna said. She was afraid that staying for too long would make Mrs. Williams angry, so she quickly ran out.


    She held her own nket and randomly found a guest room.


    Starting from today, the two of us would sleep in separate rooms.


    Rhys soon realized this and decided to bring his nket to the guest room. Before he could say anything, he saw Mrs. Williams walk in.


    “What are you two doing in the guest room? Rhys, is your master bedroom not big enough for you to sleep in?” Mrs. Williams said, ring at Jenna as she spoke.


    Rhys shook his head, saying, “The master bedroom is spacious enough, but Jenna insisted on sleeping in the guest room. As her husband, I naturally have to follow.”


    If this had been done earlier, Mrs. Williams would have been very happy.


    But now, without any hesitation, she pushed her son out and said, “Go to your master bedroom and why did youe to the guest room? Since Jenna wants to sleep here, it means she wants to sleep separately from you. Can’t you even see this?”


    “Mom?” Rhys looked puzzled.


    What’s been going ontely? Mom and Jenna have been acting very weirdly.


    The two of them seem to have conspired together and kept it a secret from me.


    “Mom, you want us having children, don’t you? If Jenna and I sleep separately, how are we gonna have children?”


    “Rhys, you didn’t want to get married before, right? Mom thought about it and forcing you isn’t worth it. If you don’t want to be married, then just get a divorce.” Mrs. Williams nced at her son and spoke casually.


    Rhys waspletely stunned by this sudden change of heart from his mother. He didn’t care about anything else as he chased after her.


    He grabbed Mrs. Williams and asked with confusion written all over his face, “Mom, what’s been going ontely? How did you suddenly change so much?”


    Mrs. Williams threw the question back at him directly. “Isn’t this what you wanted most? When you first got married, you didn’t want this wife no matter what I did; I forced it on you. Now that I’ve changed my mind and won’t force anything on you anymore, why don’t both of you just get a divorce?”


    Although they had signed an agreement for their marriage contract, she still hoped that they could quickly divorce and go their separate ways without ever seeing each other again.


    “But now I’ve changed my mind too! I realized that I like Jenna and have to take responsibility for her!” Rhys gritted his teeth as he spoke out loud.


    He had feelings for Jenna; they had even slept together.


    Regardless of everything else though, he would never divorce himself!


    “You!” Mrs. Williams couldn’t believe what she was hearing from her son; she froze in shock.


    So he really fell in love with her?!


    Wasn’t he joking around with me earlier?


    “We’ll talk about thister. Even if you like Jenna now, she doesn’t like YOU! She has requested separate beds.” She continued speaking while pushing all the me onto Jenna instead.


    She believed that Jenna would obediently listen until after her mom’s hospitalization period ended before daring to confront them again.


    Rhys wanted to say something more but Mrs. Williams clutched at her chest suddenly with pain etched across her face. “My heart seems to be acting up again… take me quickly to the hospital Rhys… are YOU really going let your mother die because of some woman?”


    “Mom!” Rhys felt helpless as well since there wasn’t any way around.


    Reluctantly, he took his mother straight away towards a nearby hospital without further ado.


    On the way, Rhys once again made his stance clear. “I just like Jenna. I’m a grown man now. If we get divorced, you’ll definitely force me to marry someone else. Why go through all this trouble?”


    “But Jenna isn’t suitable for you.” Mrs. Williams thought for a while but still didn’t mention Jenna’s pregnancy. If Rhys found out, it would surely cause another big scene.


    She hoped these two could live happily together.


    If it weren’t for that incident, she would never have urged them to divorce.


    “There’s no such thing as two people who arepletely suitable in marriage? Mom, you’ve been telling me this all along before. What’s going on with you now?” Rhys felt more and more strange as he listened.


    Seeing that he was about to ask thoroughly, Mrs. Williams closed her eyes directly and kept saying her chest hurt.


    Every time she used this trick, Rhys wouldpromise.


    This time was no exception either.


    Rhys had to shut his mouth even though he understood that his mother was probably pretending like this most of the time.


    “Mom, I’ll apany you at the hospital tonight and you should take good care of yourself by taking your medicine regrly. I won’t divorce because of it; I have my own bottom line and won’t blindly follow your words.”


    After saying these words, Rhys also closed his eyes.


    It was said that mother and son were the closest ones but he felt like they couldn’tmunicate at all; they were never on the same wavelength.


    He didn’t even notice that Mrs. Williams’ eyes were full of tears.


    Soon enough, the driver stopped the car. Rhys helped his mother into emergency room where she underwent a full examination.


    The results came out quickly. The doctor shook their head at him,”Your mother’s condition is worse than before. I suggest staying in hospital for few days, take good rest. If you have free time, you shoulde over often, say some nice things old people love hearing. ording to current situation, she doesn’t have many days left.”
