Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 198

Chapter 198 William Wants to Divorce 

After leaving school, Wade instructed his assistant to drive to Norward. 

.48% 

With no flights available to Norward over the next couple of days, Wade had no choice but to travel by car, bringing only his assistant without alerting anyone. 

After his evening classes, Ethan hesitated for a moment before turning on his phone. 

As soon as it powered on, countless missed calls flooded the screen. 

Ethan felt a wave of depression. 

Just as he was thinking about it, the phone rang again. 

His mother and Layla have been relentlessly calling him since he moved to Taragon. They called him hundreds of times a day, day and night. 

If he didn’t answer, they would call non–stop, sometimes hundreds of times a day. If he did respond, video call invitations from his sister, and, it would be endless crying and emotional blackmail from his mother and 

sister. 

On WhatsApp, he also received constant messages and video call invitations from his sister, as well as videos of his mother crying. 

Ethan purchased a new phone, swapped out his old SIM card for the new one, and left it in his dorm, attempting to ignore their constant. interruptions. 

He tried to focus on his studies while ignoring the chaos. 

However, one was his biological mother, and the other was his sister. Ethan couldn’t cut them off like Isabelle did. He felt helpless and overwhelmed by the situation, enduring immense mental and emotional. strain that nearly pushed him to the point of breaking down.

But this time, the call was from his father. 

Isabelle had just returned to the villa when she received a call from her brother. 

He said, “Isabelle, our parents are getting divorced. I want to take a leave to go back.” 

Until now, Ethan had never mentioned to Isabelle the harassment from their mother and Layla. 

Isabelle asked directly, “What do you plan to do if you go back?” 

After a moment of silence, she heard Ethan’s slightly choked voice say, “Dad wants a divorce. Mom is demanding eighty thousand dollars, the house, and my custody.” 

“What are you trying to achieve? Do you want to help Dad with the divorce or stop them?” Isabelle asked. 

Ethan replied, “I don’t know.” 

Faced with the imminent collapse of the family he had known for so long, Ethan felt lost and helpless. 

Isabelle said, “There are only two choices. If you don’t want them to divorce and don’t want the family to break apart, just let them argue and don’t get involved. 

“You’ve seen how much Dad has suffered because of Mom. If you want them to divorce, I can make it happen.” 

Of course, she wouldn’t give Eleanor eighty thousand dollars. 

Isabelle continued, “As for whom you want to live with, that’s your decision. If you want to stay with me, I can make it work.” 

Ethan remained silent.

Isabelle said, “Think about it carefully. Once you’ve decided, let me know. I’ll handle things in Norward. You focus on your studies.” 

Ethan replied, “Okay.” 

William told him, “Ethan, I have made up my mind. This might end up in court. If you want to blame or resent me, I understand. I know I haven’t been able to provide you and your sisters with a good life, and I can’t even give you a stable home. 

“I didn’t attend school like you did, and my thinking differed from yours. Regarding the incident with the math problem, I thought we’d be a family at the end of the day. Sigh! 

“I thought about it, and I know you’re different from me. Growing up poor, I always prioritized my brothers, wanting to give them the best. Seeing them have good food and a good life made me happy. Other than life and death, nothing else seemed important to me. 

“I wasn’t favouring Layla; I was just trying to keep peace among your siblings. You’re all my children, and I care for all of you.” 

“Now that things have escalated for your sisters, I take much responsibility. I’m sorry for everything.” 

Listening to his father’s words over the phone, Ethan remained silent. 

This was the first time in his life he had heard his father speak so much. He didn’t complain about anyone, not even his troublesome wife. 

Not even the wife, who was so difficult that outsiders couldn’t stand her. Despite everything, he didn’t say bad about her because he thought she had suffered with him. 

He urged them not to blame her. 

William had always taken the blame on himself. Ethan was angry at his father’s weakness, but he also pitied him after seeing his father bullied by 

his uncles

He knew the hardships his father had endured. 

“Is your elder sister doing well?” his father asked. 

Ethan opened his mouth but choked. He held back his tears and said, “She’s fine.” 

William said with a smile, “That’s good to hear.” 

“Dad, you should divorce Mom,” Ethan said, feeling surprisingly calm. despite the turmoil. 

Although he had been so lost and hurt just the night before, now he was capable of telling him calmly. 

He heard his father’s prolonged silence after his words, followed by slightly choked, “Thank you for your understanding, son.”

With one hand covering his face to wipe away tears, William continued, “Focus on your studies. No matter what, you’ll always be my child. Listen to your elder sister, and do well in Taragon.”

Resurrecting the Genius Within 

Chapter 199 Wade Visits 

Norward. 

The car drove into the old part of the city and stopped in front of the Jenkins‘ house. 

Wade, who had been resting in the back seat, opened his eyes and glanced out the window. He asked, “Are we here?” 

He rubbed his tired eyes, worn out from a couple of days on the road. 

“Yes, Mr. Sullivan,” his assistant replied, quickly getting out to open the car door. 

As soon as he heard they had arrived, Wade’s energy returned. He stepped out of the car and looked at the old, shabby courtyard in front of him. He glanced around at the neighbouring houses, all in much better condition than this one. 

Wade felt a mix of emotions. Despite the renovations, the house’s previous state was still evident.. 

Standing at the entrance, Wade took in the place where Isabelle had grown up, feeling a deep sense of guilt and sorrow. 

“I’ll knock,” the assistant said, rapping on the Jenkins‘ door. 

“Who are you looking for?” asked Eleanor, stepping out of her house next door. 

She watched Wade and his assistant up and down. They looked. distinguished and well–dressed, as did the car. 

Eleanor craned her neck to get a better look at the car. Clearly, this wealthy man is probably here to see that ungrateful girl again. 

But what are they here for–money or something else?

“Are you Madam Jenkins?” Wade asked. 

In the past couple of days, Wade had familiarized himself with the Jenkins‘ family situation and immediately recognised Eleanor. 

The polite address surprised Eleanor. It wasn’t every day someone called her so politely, especially not someone who looked important. She felt flattered. 

Quickly popping the last peanut into her mouth, Eleanor brushed her hands together and adjusted her shoulders. With a smile, she replied in a softer, more pretentious voice, “That’s me. How do you know my name?” 

“I’m Wade Sullivan. I’m here to see you and your husband,” Wade extended his hand and said, “Nice to meet you.” 

Wade’s tall, handsome appearance from his youth had matured into a distinguished charm. His tailored suit fit him perfectly. 

Seeing this gentlemanly, well–mannered man, Eleanor shyly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. 

“Nice to meet you,” she said, shaking his hand. 

Eleanor’s voice grew even softer and more pretentious. She asked, “What brings you here? I don’t know you.” 

Wade withdrew his hand and said politely, “May we speak inside?” 

“Of course, please come in,” Eleanor said eagerly, opening the door and inviting them in warmly. 

The only things that seemed newly renovated in the old courtyard were the walls and the ground. The rest of the place was in much worse condition than Wade had imagined. 

The wooden doors, mud walls, moss–covered steps, and an old threshing machine in the corner all made the place look rundown. An old water numn in the vard unused for years further contributed to the desolate

atmosphere.

In the living room, the fridge and TV looked out of place, being the only new and valuable items. 

When they arrived, Wade noticed Eleanor wearing gold earrings and dressing fairly well, but inside the house… 

She made some tea and turned to see Wade glancing around. 

Maybe the developer is interested in this house for a new project? she wondered. 

It might be possible. 

Feeling hopeful, Eleanor’s hospitality increased. She said, “Come on, have 

some tea.” 

Wade thanked her, but as he stepped forward, he accidentally kicked. stainless steel basin, making a loud clanging noise. 

Startled, he looked down. 

“Sorry,” he apologised, bending down to move the basin aside.

The house was large, but cluttered and messy. There were several rooms, but a couple looked too dilapidated to be livable. 

“I’m sorry for the poor hospitality,” Eleanor said, handing him a cup of hot 

tea. 

Wade took the cup with both hands. He said, “Thank you. It’s fine.” 

“Do you want to watch TV? I can turn it on for you,” Eleanor offered. 

Wade declined, “No, thank you.” 

Eleanor turned the TV on anyway and said, “Please sit down and have a drink.”

Her noise had disturbed someone in another room. 

Layla, with a tone of irritation, came out and said, “Mom, what are you doing? Can’t I get some sleep with all this noise?” 

Wade looked around. 

Eleanor glared at Layla, muttering under her breath, “Sleep, sleep; that’s all you do. Do you even know what time it is?” 

Wade frowned slightly. 

Eleanor turned back, her tone changing instantly as she spoke to him, “That’s my daughter. Sorry about that.” 

Wade nodded. He recognised Layla and noted that she looked even thinner and more worn out than in the photos. 

“Mom, who are they?” Layla asked, eyeing the visitors. 

Are they coming for that fat pig again? She wondered. 

Eleanor snapped, “None of your business. Go back to your room. 

Layla gave Wade one last look before turning losing the door, leaving 

it slightly ajar so she could listen in. 

Wade casually asked, “Isn’t it a school day? Why isn’t your daughter at school?” 

Wade, with limited time, had only learned the basics about the Jenkins. family and didn’t know about Layla’s expulsion from Taragon University for cheating.

Chapter 200 Birth Secret 

Eleanor smiled and brushed it off. “The child isn’t feeling well. But you haven’t told me why you’re here.” 

Wade put down his tea and asked, “Where’s your husband?” 

Eleanor waved dismissively. “He’s at work.” 

Wade nodded and asked, “You have three children, right? The two eldest daughters are twins.” 

Eleanor responded, “Yes, why?” 

Wade continued, “Isabelle, your eldest, is studying at Taragon University.” 

Eleanor eyed Wade suspiciously and said, “Yes.” 

He isn’t a developer, and he’s here to see that brat again. Eleanor’s enthusiasm. waned significantly.
