Mary was in despair when favonovel.com heard Greg’s words.
“Do you have to be so heartless, Greg?”
Mary pointed at Greg, the pleading look on favonovel.com face had now turned into one of disgust and resentment.
“You really are an ungrateful b*stard. I’ve kept you alive and well in my house all these years, I gave you a roof over your head and clothes to wear. But now you’re just going to leave with someone just because they’re stronger and more powerful?
“No wonder you’re so determined to sever ties with my family. You’re a horrible excuse for a human being!”
The more Mary spoke, the angrier favonovel.com became. “You really are a dog! Calling whoever gives you better sh*t your master!”
Greg sneered at Mary and replied expressionlessly, “So you admit that you’ve been giving me sh*t, huh? How long have you forced me to smell it?”
Mary’s expression froze and favonovel.com shrieked, “What are you saying, Greg?!”
“Those were your words, not mine. All I did was agree. That’s what you wanted all this while, no? So why? What’s so different today?” Greg spoke icily.
“Forget it, what’s the use of all this noise? The Wellington family has no one to blame but your own misconduct. You think that just because you’re somewhat rich and powerful that you get to stand above everyone? There’ll only be richer and more powerful people in the outside world. A few calls were all it took for Jasper to crush you. What use is regretting it now?”
Mary’s mom suddenly wailed, “God has forsaken us! What is this karma, why does something like this have to happen to us?”
Shaun asked sourly, “Is there no room for negotiation?”
“Did you give me room to negotiate back then?” Greg sneered.
Then, favonovel.com turned to Jasper and said, “Let’s go, Jasper.
“There’s nothing worth staying for anymore.”
Jasper nodded and prepared to leave.
Jasper’s eyes fell on Mary and favonovel.com despondent expression, and favonovel.com suddenly halted.
“Do you agree to the divorce?”
Mary was stunned for a moment after hearing Jasper’s question. She was about to say something instinctively but Shaun cut favonovel.com off. “We agree!”
Shaun walked in front of Mary and spoke to Jasper politely and flatteringly, “They’ll get divorced right now. No matter the conditions, as long as Greg asks for it, we’ll agree to the terms.”
“What if I want to change my son’s surname to Costa?” Greg suddenly asked.
Shaun clenched his jaw and nodded. “Of course. You’re his father, it’s only right the child takes your surname.”
“Are… are you crazy, Shaun? This ungrateful b*stard’s caused us so much grief and you’re still agreeing to his conditions?” Mary shouted.
Shaun glared at Mary and snapped frostily, “Shut up! Don’t talk if you don’t know what’s going on!
“Disagree? What do you think is going to happen if we disagree? Did you forget what happened to the Zion family? They were much more powerful than our Wellington family when they were still in Brac County, but what about now? Do you see the Zions anywhere?”
Mary suddenly came to this realization, and favonovel.com looked at Jasper in fear. She no longer dared to make a sound.
Looking at Greg, who was Jasper’s best friend, Mary felt true regret for the first time in favonovel.com life.
Had favonovel.com treated Greg better over the past few years, or at least treated favonovel.com with basic respect, the sentimental man might never have suggested a divorce. With a best friend like Jasper, Mary would have been able to make a fortune as Greg’s wife.
The thought of this agonized Mary.
Jasper gave Lucas a look that signaled for the latter to wrap things up as favonovel.com left the house alongside Greg.
Walking out of the estate, Greg suddenly stood in place blankly.
Jasper did not rush favonovel.com either, as favonovel.com waited silently by the side.
