Chapter 161: Not wanted

Chapter 161: Not wanted’Don’t pretend to act like a good girl. You aren’t and you will never be.’

Jeslyn took the phone off her ear and looked at the ID before looking around the room. She didn’t understand what that woman was talking about.

"Sorry, ma, do you know me from anywhere?"

’And you expect me to answer such stupid question from a Gold digger like you? Jeslyn or whatever your name is, stay away from my son. I won’t warn you again. Vera is my daughter-in-law and she’s pregnant with a second child for my son. If you aren’t a wicked person, you wouldn’t need anyone to tell you what your next step should be.’

"Beep! Beep! Beep!"

Jeslyn gasped in shock. What is going on?! She didn’t want to believe the mess that just happened, so she tried

She knew she loved Maverick and might not be able to live without him but at this moment, Valen’s happiness matters most.

She picked up her phone with shaky hands and called Pink.

"Older sister," her voice shook and her lips quivered.

"Little bunny, what’s wrong with your voice?"

"What do I do? My husband..." she didn’t know how to continue. Her vision was clouded with hot tears.

"Take it slow and tell me, what happened?"

"Vera is pregnant."

Jeslyn heard Pink take a deep breath before she spoke again.

"What do you intend to do?"

"I want to... leave for Valen’s future."

"Child, that’s a hard decision. Your husband won’t allow it and your heart also won’t. However, I would advise against it but if you feel that’s the best thing, you should go for it."

"Pink, you are not helping...waaaah," she broke down in hot tears. She knew that Pink was right but somehow, she wasn’t expecting that answer. Or rather, she couldn’t accept the obvious truth.

"That’s not so. You’ve already fallen in love with him and he has also shown that he’s very possessive of you. How do you think you can let him go? Your husband is very stubborn and it’s obvious he won’t accept it."

"I can’t be the other woman... waaaah."

"But you are the genuine wife, Jeslyn."

"His mother hates me. She only sees Vera as her daughter-in-law. Older sister, I have decided." Jeslyn wiped her face, still the tears wouldn’t stop.

"I support whatever decision you choose."

Jeslyn put down her phone and covered her face with her palm as she cried her heart out.

...

The next morning, Jeslyn handed a document to Yellow with her puffed face and reddened eyes.

"You already know what this is, after all you brought it for me. Deliver it to your boss."

"Little bunny, are you sure about this?"

"I have made up my mind."

Yellow stayed silent for a while. She looked at the disheveled Jeslyn and sighed. "How about you think about it a little more?"

"The only thing I’ll consider thinking about is your resignation letter if you prove stubborn one more time." Jeslyn looked fiercely at Yellow.

Yellow shook her head. "This will hurt you more than you intend to hurt your husband. I hope you come to your senses soon enough."

After Yellow left, Jeslyn sat on the bed and started to cry again. Of course, she’s hurting. However the least thing she can ever do in her life is to be in a messy relationship. Her mother’s life taught her enough lessons.

Since yesterday, Jeslyn had not eaten anything nor drank anything. She has no appetite and again, there was no alcohol in the full house. It must have been Maverick’s instructions to get her away from alcohol.

She was going to a party soon, she would want to know how influential Maverick was. Would he also get rid of all the alcohol in the party?
