âItâs because I love him that I do this.â
âLove? Men need space. What youâre doing isnât love, youâre pushing him! Havenât you ever thought, as a grown man being so entangled by you, where is his dignity? And, you always act hysterical, do you think people wouldnât be scared? Youâre controlling him so tightly even before getting married, what will happen after marriage? Will he have to carry you with him all the time?â Juliet Jordan was teaching her how to control a man, âWith men, you have to treat them like flying a kite. As long as you hold the string, let the kite fly however it wants, and it will eventually come back. Women like you who constantly make a fuss, even if you get married, you wonât be able to keep a manâs heart. Once you fail to keep his heart, get ready for divorce.â
âHe wouldnât dare!â
Juliet Jordan gave her a cold glance and said, âThe Sullivan Family only temporarily needs our familyâs funds to tide them over. Once they recover, do you think they will still be so polite to you?â
âBut our family has helped them. Why would they want their son to divorce me?â Jasmine Clarkâs hands were tense, with blue veins appearing on her wrists.
Jasmineâs naivete irritated Juliet, who said icily, âJasmine, what do you think the business world is like? Today the Sullivan Family faces problems, so they can form a marriage alliance with you. Tomorrow if the Clark Family has problems and needs the Sullivan Familyâs help, just wait and see if your father is the first to take you back home and personally send you to get divorced.â
Jacob Clarkâs heart was always just about himself. As long as nothing was blocking his path, he could maintain the facades of a good man, a good husband, and a good father. If his path was blocked, he could turn cold and heartless in an instant. Just like before with that woman, and now with Enna Clark.
Jasmine couldnât believe it, shaking her head in denial, âMom, youâre just talking nonsense. Dad would never treat me like that. Iâm his daughter. How could he possibly not care about me?â
âEnna is also his daughter. When Mayor Smith wanted to see her, he didnât stop Enna from meeting him either.â
Jasmine protested without hesitation, âThatâs different. Enna was born from a mistress, so of course Dad doesnât care about her. Itâs not the same with me. Iâm the child of you both. Dad would definitely care for me.â
Juliet Jordan bit her lip, wanting to tell her that in Jacobâs heart, it didnât matter who gave birth to his children. But seeing Jasmineâs stubborn expression, she swallowed her words.
If Jasmine had a moment of impulse and confronted Jacob directly, it could lead to even bigger problems.
Juliet Jordan had a headache and didnât want to deal with it anymore. âAlright, stop making a fuss. I will call Mrs. Sullivan and ask her to contact William Sullivan. In the next few days, you stay at home and donât wander around. Especially donât go to the Sullivanâs house to find their parents or go looking for their friends. Do you understand?â
Jasmine was displeased in her heart but didnât dare to defy Juliet. She reluctantly said, âI understand.â
Juliet Jordan thought she really did understand and elegantly said, âIn a while, Iâll have Auntie Wren come and clean up your room. Your father will be back soon, and I donât care how unhappy you are. When he comes back, you will smile for me. Donât put on a long face, itâs just annoying to look at.â
..Okay.â Jasmine felt very wronged, and at the same time, she put the blame on Enna Clarkâs head, vowing in her heart to find Enna and ask her to bring William Sullivan out.
Juliet Jordan left the second floorâŠ.
