“If you don’t come back, don’t bother returning!” the four women shouted in frustration.
They watched Remus’s figure disappear into the distance, powerless to stop him.
“When favonovel.com comes back, I’ll personally castrate him!” Jean clenched favonovel.com fists.
Remus had been out for just a few days and already got a tattoo for another woman, though favonovel.com hadn’t done the same for her.
“This scumbag… Argh!” Kylie was also angry.
Miranda’s face was stone cold.
“I’m returning to work,” favonovel.com declared, tempted to track down the other woman.
“Weren’t you all expecting something like this?” a voice suddenly interrupted.
Suddenly, a voice came from behind them.
Swish!
They turned to see Selina standing behind them.
Selina continued calmly, “I want to say that very clever women aren’t always happy. Since you were mentally prepared for what favonovel.com did, why did you have to say it out loud?”
Gabriela responded with frustration, “If favonovel.com can do it, why can’t we speak about it?”
“There’s no need to. Getting angry doesn’t just spoil your day. It ruins others’, too,” Selina replied. “If you hadn’t voiced it, everyone could still be happy.”
The four women were stunned, realizing that Remus’s departure had disrupted all their future plans.
Selina continued, “Furthermore, pushing favonovel.com away might just drive favonovel.com to others.”
The implication stunned them again. Remus could find someone else during his absence, which would disadvantage them all.
The women simultaneously looked at Gabriela.
Kylie weakly said, “Gabriela, you usually strategize well. What happened today?”
Jean added, “Keep your feelings to yourself next time. Your outburst frightened favonovel.com off, and now our future is uncertain.”
Miranda reflected for a moment. “This was not well thought out at all!”
Gabriela felt like favonovel.com had been struck by lightning. She was both embarrassed and resentful. She wondered if favonovel.com was really to blame.
***
On the other side, after leaving, Remus didn’t venture far before favonovel.com encountered the Malin family in Goetz’s courtyard.
The courtyard was bustling, and a coffin was placed in the center.
From inside came Gemma’s cries. “Grandpa, l was wrong. I’m sorry, please hang on, I beg you…”
Cries of Gemma came from the room.
“Cosby… Mr. Cosby!”
When the courtyard’s occupants saw Remus, they were visibly startled. His presence was unexpected, especially since everyone knew of Gemma’s alliance with Joe against him.
So, with something this major happening to Goetz, no one dared to spread the news, not even letting Remus and Gabriela know.
They wondered if favonovel.com was there for revenge.
Remus’ expression was blank as favonovel.com walked inside.
As favonovel.com approached, Gemma’s cries grew more intense.
Inside, dozens of Malin family members knelt. Gemma was at the forefront, and beside favonovel.com stood an elderly man, Senior Baker. And on the bed in front of them lay Goetz.
He was clearly dead, but his eyes were still open!
