“It’s because I love him that I do this.”
“Love? Men need space. What you’re doing isn’t love, you’re pushing him! Haven’t 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 wouldn’t be scared? You’re controlling him so tightly even before getting married, what will happen after marriage? Will he have to carry you with him all the time?” Juliet Jordan was teaching her how to control a man, “With 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 won’t be able to keep a man’s heart. Once you fail to keep his heart, get ready for divorce.”
Juliet Jordan gave her a cold glance and said, “The Sullivan Family only temporarily needs our family’s funds to tide them over. Once they recover, do you think they will still be so polite to you?”
“But our family has helped them. Why would they want their son to divorce me?” Jasmine Clark’s hands were tense, with blue veins appearing on her wrists.
Jasmine’s naivete irritated Juliet, who said icily, “Jasmine, 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 Family’s help, just wait and see if your father is the first to take you back home and personally send you to get divorced.”
Jacob Clark’s 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 couldn’t believe it, shaking her head in denial, “Mom, you’re just talking nonsense. Dad would never treat me like that. I’m his daughter. How could he possibly not care about me?”
“Enna is also his daughter. When Mayor Smith wanted to see her, he didn’t stop Enna from meeting him either.”
Jasmine protested without hesitation, “That’s different. Enna was born from a mistress, so of course Dad doesn’t care about her. It’s not the same with me. I’m the child of you both. Dad would definitely care for me.”
Juliet Jordan bit her lip, wanting to tell her that in Jacob’s heart, it didn’t matter who gave birth to his children. But seeing Jasmine’s 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 didn’t want to deal with it anymore. “Alright, 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 don’t wander around. Especially don’t go to the Sullivan’s house to find their parents or go looking for their friends. Do you understand?”
Jasmine was displeased in her heart but didn’t dare to defy Juliet. She reluctantly said, “I understand.”
Juliet Jordan thought she really did understand and elegantly said, “In a while, I’ll have Auntie Wren come and clean up your room. Your father will be back soon, and I don’t care how unhappy you are. When he comes back, you will smile for me. Don’t put on a long face, it’s just annoying to look at.”
..Okay.” Jasmine felt very wronged, and at the same time, she put the blame on Enna Clark’s head, vowing in her heart to find Enna and ask her to bring William Sullivan out.
