Zayne lowered his head, and his complexion turned extremely ashen.
Jenson said, "What on earth are you thinking? Are you going to be with her without any second thoughts or are you severing your ties with her and returning to your family?"
A pained look flashed across Zayne's eyes. He looked a t Emmy guiltily and said, "We’re no longer children, Emmy. We still have responsibilities on our shoulders. We can't be willful. You should forget about me from now on."
Suddenly, Emmy staggered forward. She pulled
Zayne’s hand tightly and said with a weep, "Please, don't leave me, Zaynie. I really do love you. I don't care whether you succeed in your business or whether you have a luxury car. I only love you."
Zayne’s resolve to turn around crumbled because of Emmy's words.
His eyes were welling up with tears.
Emmy suddenly held onto him while crying like a child. "Just divorce her, Zaynie. Let's get married, okay? I promise never to give you any dirty looks, and I'll never dislike you for your mediocrity. We’ll respect each other forever."
Baby Robbie stared at them and murmured, "It's
indeed quite hard to choose. One’s a gentle and caring young flower, while the other is simply a muse."
Jenson said, "What's so hard about it? Humans aren't some primitive beings that live on unadulterated emotions all their lives. Humans are complex social animals. To be recognized by society, they must have a correct outlook on the world and a noble character."
His cold words directed at Zayne and Emmy made them feel ashamed. They were unable to show their faces.
Jenson rolled his eyes at Zayne. Seeing how hard of a time he was having trying to separate from Emmy, Jenson yelled, "Don’t say that I didn't give you a chance, Uncle. You have to give me an answer in half a day. If you go with her, I'll head home immediately and tell Aunt Josie all about it. I'll never allow her to continue to be deceived by you people.”
Zayne pleaded, "Will you please be more humane, Jens? Can't you give me two more days?"
