After Baby Zetty dropped out of school, days seemed t o drag on for Angeline.
Jay looked at the cheerless Angeline and felt extremely heavy-hearted as well.
He wished more than anyone for Baby Zetty to feel better, but what Baby Zetty had was a broken heart. To cure her broken heart, she needed to go back to the source, and that source was Finn.
Jay would never bring himself to destroy Finn’s love i n favor of his daughter.
Angeline sat on the couch and stared grumpily at him. "Even if you refuse to separate Finn and Tammy, you should at least tell Finn the truth about Baby Zetty’s illness. Who knows, maybe Finn would be moved by Baby Zetty’s infatuation?”
Jay said helplessly, "Angeline, Baby Zetty doesn't need Finn's pity.”
Angeline and Jay had vastly different approaches when it came to handling Baby Zetty’s affair. Angeline was concerned only about her child's wellbeing and was willing to try anything that could help her child.
She had lost her sanity and was on the verge of breaking down.
Jay, on the other hand, was looking far ahead into the future. He knew that his children could not avoid facing storms as they grew up.
This was similar to him and Josephine when they were young. After a kidnapping case, Grandpa had shielded Josephine with great care, disallowing her to step out of the house and arranging countless bodyguards to send her to and fro from school. In the end, she lost the ability to protect herself and was brutally wounded by thugs.
On the contrary, as a man, Jay welcomed challenges. H e worked hard to hone his skills and adapt to life. In the end, he became a world-class powerhouse.
Jay walked closer to Angeline, but she turned away to ignore him. For the past few days, both of them had surpassed the limit for the number of quarrels and cold wars they could have in this lifetime as husband and wife because of Baby Zetty. Although this feeling was often one-sided, it still put Jay through a lot of suffering.
"Don't get mad anymore, Angeline," Jay said, coaxing her.
"I will handle Baby Zetty's affairs properly."
Angeline glared at him. "How are you going to handle i t? Wait for her to walk out of the shadows herself? It has been so long. Do you think she can walk out of it? Had you asked Finn to come over and meet her when she first started binge eating, then perhaps she
wouldn't have fallen into depression."
