Violet was exasperated by his words, with tears flooded her eyes, “Stanley, don't you understand, what I want is your honesty, honesty! I don't know what I did wrong to make you treat me like this, if you think I can't be forgiven, you can talk to me or divorce me. There's no need to be cold to me, do you know that ......”
She sobbed, “Do you know that it hurts me when you treat me like this? I'd rather you divorce me than be cold to me.”
“I won't get a divorce.” Hearing the word divorce, Stanley's pupils shrank, and his voice was hoarse as he spat out his words.
However, these words did not comfort Violet, who took a breath, “If so, are you going to continue like this?”
Stanley's eyelids dropped and he felt silence.
Violet closed her eyes, “I know, bye then.”
When she finished, she hung up the phone, went upstairs and locked herself in her room, not even coming down for dinner.
Bella was so worried that she went up and knocked on the door, and Violet did not even open the door and said she was fine.
But Bella heard her sobbing, Bella did not believe that she was fine, but there was nothing she could do. She shook her head and went downstairs with a sign.
In the following two days, Violet was spiritless and for several times, she had handed the wrong design drawings.
If Jessie hadn't found it and intercepted in time, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
Seeing that Violet was like a walking corpse, Jessie was heartbroken and angry. She couldn't help it anymore and pushed open her office door to enter, “Violet, look at your work efficiency in the past two days!”
Jessie threw a pile of design drawings on Violet's desk, “What should be revised is not revised, what should be drawn is not drawn, what should be bound is not bound, and you don't even care the documents handed over by the factory for your signature. Your work is a mess. This is not you.”
“......” Violet looked at the design on the desk and lowered her head, knowing that she was in the wrong, and didn't say anything.
Jessie's attitude softened, “Violet, look at what you've become now, you used to be so refined, now you're oozing negative energy. And you're not even dressed that well, it's just a man, why torture yourself like this!”
Violet covered her face, “Jessie, you don't understand ......”
“What don't I understand? It's not like I haven't suffered hurt from love. I love George, and I have been there, but I won’t torture myself, at least I've always been tough.” Jessie interrupted her in a cold voice.
Violet's lips moved, wanting to say something, but in the end nothing came out.
Jessie was right, even when she was sad, she was never so disheveled.
But Violet failed to do so.
“Okay, Violet, hurry up and adjust your mind.” Jessie came forward, hugged Violet, softly comforted, “How bright you used to be, but now you, make me can't even look at you. I know you love Mr. Murphy and Mr. Murphy made you sad, but you can't toss yourself, if you want to toss, you should toss Mr. Murphy.”
“Toss Stanley?” Violet looked up.
Jessie nodded heavily, “That's right, he makes you sad, so you have to torment him, right? It's not worth it to torment yourself, nor is it smart to do so, and there are plenty of men out there. If Mr. Murphy keeps going on like this, you can divorce him and find another man to replace him.”
Violet was amused by her, “You think it's that simple.”
“How is it not simple? You and Stanley cannot go back to your previous relationship, just why don’t you just break up? Or you should be in pain longer, break up with him for the sake of yourself and for the kids.”
“The kids ......” Violet's eyes flashed.
Jessie nodded, “Yeah, we can't let the two children live under the shadow of you and Mr. Murphy's discord all the time, it's not good for their growth. Besides, when you and Mr. Murphy weren't married, the two children didn't have a father, but they were happy.”
That was true.
And Jessie was right, if she and Stanley had been unable to make up and had made the family atmosphere so stiff, it would indeed have a great impact on the two children.
