The two were already in a luxurious room with a beautiful view. Emily's heart was troubled, and she was still thinking about the necklace no longer in her hand. Jason had thrown it away. That meant he would never give her a chance. Emily didn't understand why she was so wishy-washy. Wasn't she the one who told Jason to throw it away? Why did she feel unwilling now? Emily got up and then decided to leave the room where she was staying. She was determined; it was still afternoon, and she should have been able to find the necklace before it got carried away, and it became harder for Emily to see it. Jason, who was still cleaning up, didn't find Emily when he came out of the bathroom and left her alone. He thought Emily might want to order something from the cottage. Surely, it wouldn't take long. While Emily had not returned, Jason took out the object he had been hiding in his pants pocket. If Emily thought she was the only one who didn't want it gone, she was wrong. Jason even won

Emily was still in her room, just as Jason had instructed. She's still hoping Jason will come back and choose her over Tamara, one way or another.However, that was impossible. Jason would always choose Tamara and leave her lonely, just as he had before.Emily knew that hoping Jason would choose her was impossible. Although the man said that he was lost and needed Emily's help to understand himself, it would still be challenging to change Jason if not of his own free will.Emily's body sagged on the floor, clutching her knees while still crying over the misfortune of her love for Jason.She had indeed been able to drive Jason out of her life, trying to start a relationship with Jared, Jason's biological brother, and their dreams had not been able to be intertwined because Jared also did not give certainty about their relationship.What was Emily's fault? She tried twice to be in a relationship with a man with a blood relative, and both were not much different.However, when she became

Emily gulped down the water in her glass. She couldn't believe what she had just witnessed a few hours ago. It was already evening, and Emily still couldn't forget what had happened. Stupidly, she did not record the incident as evidence. Emily's body was still shaking violently. The glass in her hand almost fell, and when her eyes caught the figure of Jason standing not far from where Emily was, the drink fell on the floor along with Emily's scream. "Shit! S-sorry, Jase, I was surprised to see you there. I thought you'd be home late again." Emily crouched down and picked up the broken glass carefully, although her hands were still shaking. "Don't clean it like that; let me help. Don't hurt your hands again," Jason said as he brought a floor broom and started cleaning it slowly. Meanwhile, Emily clutched her body and looked uneasy, walking to and fro. Jason couldn't help but notice his wife's strange behavior. "Did something happen? I left the office earlier because of a sudden m

Charles invited Emily and Jason to dinner at the McKennel residence. The parents missed Jason and their daughter-in-law having a meal together and chatting as usual. Emma herself contacted Emily to invite her daughter-in-law and son in person. "We hope you will come. Charles asked me and some of the helpers to make a nice meal," Emma said, sounding excited. Emily didn't have the heart to refuse. However, Jason always came home late, and she wasn't sure if he would go. "I don't know about Jason; he's been busy with work lately. However, I can come, Mrs. McKennel; you can rest easy. I'll help you make Mr. McKennel's favorite snack." Emily answered her mother-in-law's invitation while flashing a happy smile. "Oh, no, dear. Charles will nag me if you intervene in this matter. You'll be guests later, so don't touch anything because I've got a whole army of people to help," Emma said with an excited laugh. "Alright then. I'll get everything ready for later. And I'll let Jason know in c

Jason couldn't move when Emily calmly told him that the man who left with her was her ex-boyfriend. Emily doesn't mean to torture Jason with pain; she wants Jason to know what it's like to be doomed. There is another hidden fact and side of Emily's relationship with Alex, actually. They used to like each other, but it's not true they were ever in love. Emily just wanted to play with Jason. "What did you say? Ex-lover? And you went to the law institute with your ex-lover; what for, Emily?" asked Jason with a raised intonation. Jealousy maybe was the underlying attitude of Jason at the moment. Although he had hurt Emily many times, this was the first time he knew how it felt. And being jealous is very unpleasant. "Yes, is there a problem?" asked Emily with a tone of voice that was inversely proportional to that of Jason. The woman seemed so calm and guarded in her speech. "You asked, 'is there a problem'? The problem is that you're my wife, Em! Are you starting to lose your mind?" h
