Chapter 951 Stay away from Him
After signing the agreement, Jenna intentionally avoided Rhys.
Rhys quickly realized this and asked with some confusion, “Jenna, did I do something wrong? Why do I feel like you’re avoiding me?”
These days he had been thinking about what to do next for the two of them.
Now he had thought it through and was very clear about it. He doesn’t hate Jenna, and even has a little bit of affection for her. Perhaps, as time goes by, they will gradually fall in love.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“We are already married, so let’s just live a happy life together. As for that three-month agreement, forget about it.”
“What?” Jenna didn’t expect him to say that and was momentarily caught off guard. “Have you been through something recently? Why would you suddenly change your attitude?”
At the beginning, he really disliked her and didn’t even want to be in the same room with her. Even if she had been drugged, he still wouldn’t have wanted to have sex with her.
What is going on right now?
“I wasn’t really affected by anything, I just thought about it carefully. My mother made a lot of sense. I’m at an age where it’s time to settle down. Since we’re married now, I’ll take responsibility for you,” Rhys shook his head.
This time, no one forced him. It was his own decision.
Maybe it’d been too long since he was single, but now he suddenly yearned for family life. After work every day, he could play with his children and chat with his wife about what happened that day. It was also very interesting.
“But I don’t want to, Rhys. Have you forgotten our original agreement? I don’t want to go back on my word. We’re going to divorce anyway, and if you’re afraid of our mother not accepting it, then we can wait a little longer.” Jenna looked into his eyes and refused without hesitation.
She now truly understands the phrase “life is unpredictable”.
She never thought that Rhys would actually change his mind.
If this had been brought up earlier, she would have agreed and tried her best. But now, she is pregnant with that man’s child.
Even an ordinary man cannot accept raising someone else’s child, let alone Rhys.
There was never really any love between them, and with this incident happening, it’s best for them to just part ways.
He couldn’t understand why things had turned out this way and couldn’t help but ask, “Can you give me a reason? Did I do something wrong or what? I’m not joking, I really want to be with you.”
For the first time, he entertained the idea of living together with a woman.
He was 100% sure that he was serious and there was no hint of joking in his words.
“Because we’re not a good match. You’re Mr. Williams from a wealthy family while I’m just an ordinary woman from a regular family. We won’t be happy together, Rhys. Please, just let me go,” Jenna pushed him away and walked out.
As she closed the door behind her, tears streamed down her face uncontrollably.
She kept asking herself over and over again why all the hardships had to come her way. Why couldn’t God just leave her alone?
With such a dad and now this psycho added into the mix, they ruined all of her happiness!
Suddenly, Rhys came out as well.
“There’s nothing left for us to say to each other. Please don’t follow me,” Jenna turned around and walked away while wiping away tears.
Without thinking twice about it, Rhys chased after her.
The sight of them running after each other caught Mrs. Williams’ attention who immediately became cold-faced with impatience as she intervened,
“What are you two doing? Jenna, you come into my room; there’s something I need to talk to you about.”
Rhys could only comply as he watched Jenna follow his mother back into their bedroom without saying anything else for now. There would still be plenty of time later on if needed anyway…
“Did you forget how we signed that agreement?” Mrs. Williams slammed shut the door behind them before turning around with fury in her eyes,
“I thought you were a sensible girl but apparently not! You should know that I’ve been very considerate towards your situation in our agreement already so what are you trying to do now? Are you trying to slap my face?”
“I told you before; I can offer you enough money! All I want is for you stay away from my son but look at yourself!”
They were chasing each other right in front of her… if they were alone inside their bedroom, who knows what might have happened…
When she had tried to set them up before, they had teamed up to pretend. Now that she wasn’t trying anymore, they were suddenly back together. Wasn’t this just to spite her?
“Jenna, let me say it again: stay away from my son. Don’t try my limited patience. Don’t push me too far or your family will suffer!” Mrs. Williams’ words grew harsher.
When she was young, Mrs. Williams wasn’t just any wealthy wife or sheltered flower; she was a female entrepreneur who fought alongside her husband in the business world.
That’s why she wanted her son to find a reliable wife as soon as possible so that they could support each other and make his life easier.
“I didn’t mean it like that…,” Jenna anxiously explained, not wanting this matter to affect her family.
She wanted to speak but Mrs. Williams wouldn’t listen and stopped her directly.
“Don’t tell me my son chased after you! Since the day you two got married, he hasn’t been interested in you at all! You better not lie in front of me!” She knew her son too well.
A person who wouldn’t even share a bed when drugged couldn’t possibly change his mind and chase after Jenna all of sudden!
It must be this good daughter-in-law doing something behind their backs!
“I don’t want Rhys knowing about your pregnancy; this child isn’t ours anyway! You’d better keep it hidden because I’ve been paying for your mother’s medical bills at the hospital. If I stop paying now, your mother will be kicked out immediately along with your brother’s tuition fees which you can never afford alone.” Every word from Mrs. Williams made Jenna feel heavier than before.
Right now besides nodding along with what was being said, there was nothing else Jenna could do because every word spoken by Mrs. Williams may have sounded harsh but were true facts. If she wished so, one sentence would cut off their entire livelihoods!
“Stay away from my son or I’ll cut off payment for your mother’s medical bills,” emphasized Mrs. Williams once again.
