Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 706

Chapter 706 You Are Thick-skinned

Jimmy waited for a long time, but Melissa didn't say anything. He blinked his big eyes and asked, "Melissa, do you like this painting?"

The woman standing by the hospital bed snapped out of her thoughts and replied eagerly, "I love it! Your paintings are so beautiful. How could I not like it?"

Melissa looked at Jimmy's artwork with satisfaction. She had decided where to hang it.

Seeing Melissa's happy face made Jimmy smile too. To him, having someone appreciate his art was a great feeling.

...

After Jimmy's leg got better, they set off to Z Country.

Since Jimmy still had difficulty moving around, he went in a wheelchair.

When they arrived in Z Country and settled into the Lucas Residence for their stay there, Jimmy, Melissa and Eden couldn't help but marvel at how wealthy the Lucas family was while also being fascinated by the exotic culture here.

Sam was delighted to see Jimmy. His smile never faded off throughout their tour around many places until it was time for them to go back home, which made Jimmy tearful as they left.

They stayed in Z Country for half a month before returning home. The day when Martha returned to the Doyle Manor from her trip abroad with her family members including Stefan who went elsewhere on business upon arrival back home; Rhys came over for a visit.

Maxwell and Bianca were out shopping together at that time while Jimmy started his new semester.

Rhys saw Martha standing at the door with raised eyebrows and commented, "You look good."

"I just got back from traveling," Martha replied nonchalantly as she turned around to walk inside.

As soon as they sat down in the living room together, after being served fruit tea by one servant, Rhys said meaningfully, "He trusts you enough to let you be alone with me."

Martha knew that 'he' referred to Stefan when she heard this comment. She elegantly picked up her cup of tea and took a sip before smiling, "I'm his wife. Of course he trusts me."

"After spending so much time on our honeymoon, Stefan's assistant had to take care of everything at the Harrison Group. When Stefan left before, Eden was able to support the company, but this time around Eden travelled together with them, so important documents are just piled up, waiting for Stefan to come back and sign them." Martha thought of it and knew that Stefan must be very busy during this time."

Rhys' eyes darkened and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he said, "You can get divorced though you're married."

Martha was slightly stunned but then smiled and blinked her eyes. "I wonder if Jimmy will still be close to you after hearing you say that."

Rhys choked for a moment and a strange look flashed in his eyes before he finally said nothing.

After finishing her tea, Martha placed the cup back on the coffee table. "Why are you here today?"

When she asked this question, she had known that Rhys had come to see her about their studio and their working project.

But she didn't mention that those paintings were already ready. Why would he come?

As Martha thought about this, she looked at the man sitting across from her with some confusion in her eyes.

Rhys regained his composure as he lightly opened his lips, saying, "Have you forgotten our cooperation?"

When Martha looked over at him, it seemed like he was indifferent but for some reason she could hear a hint of grievance in his voice.
