Jonathan showed up early the next day, looking furious. I had learned that after his fight with Elijah yesterday, Elijah's younger brother and mother had come to cause trouble for me, only fueled his angri.

I saw the dangerous glint in his eyes as he approached. Quickly, 1 grabbed his arm and said, "Jen, it's line. They didn't hurt me."

1 quickly protested, "No. This is a hospital, not a prison, I don't like having so im soy people around."

Jonathan's gare turned cold and unforgiving "I heard that old bag tror into you to hun."

The memory of Eliah's mother scolding me had left a beary knot in my chest. Even though I knew she was bizarre, it still hurt to be attacked by someone so abound Iried to reason Jonathan. "Jen, don't stoop to her level. She's just venting It only shows she's terrified I might file for divorce."

Jonathan sneered. "Of course she's scared. Now that Linder Group lest the bid, their reputation is in shambles. They can't afford to have their cash flow cut off right now."

After a moment, I suddenly asked, "What about Mom and Dad? I want to video call them."
