Joseph nodded at Zayne obediently. "Okay."
A touch of disappointment flashed across Zayne's eyes. He initially thought that he could make use of his son by making him feel reluctant to part with him. Perhaps Josie would feel moved and allow him to stay by their side.
It was just that Joseph was not particularly close to him.
Zayne suddenly felt sorrowful as he was not a responsible and patient father. He seemed to be someone dispensable in his son’s eyes.
Tears welled up in Zayne's eyes. He placed Joseph down before leaving in despair.
Angeline looked over at Zayne's desolated back. It would be a lie to say that she did not feel sorry for him. However, she knew that he must accept the punishment for having an affair. He needed to have a readjustment period from having done such a thing.
Jay looked at Josie’s stiff expression and Angelina's sorrowed look. He sighed weakly in his heart.
It seemed like he had to end this situation soon enough. Otherwise, both Josie and Angeline would not live well.
Jay soon devised a strategy. He elegantly sat on the
sofa in the living room and said to Josie, "Jose, is there any chance that you and Zayne will get back together?"
Josie shook his head and said chokingly, "How do we get back together after that? Jay, whenever I think of him betraying my belief in being with one person for the rest of our lives, I simply think that he’s not worthy of my love. I can’t accept such a vulgar person."
Jay nodded and said, "Since it's impossible for you and Zayne, then you don't have to indulge yourself in pain, unable to extricate yourself. I’ll introduce you to a new man. How about it?"
Zayne, who was standing outside the door, happened t o hear Jay's words and his complexion grew pale.
Josie shook her head and refused, "Can't I live the rest of my life alone, Jay? Men can’t be trusted, so I won’t b e relying on any more men. Believe me when I say that I can live a good life alone."
Jay had an ulterior motive for doing this. He wanted t o give Josie and Zayne potent medicine. Then, he coerced her by saying, "The other party is a young talented man who just came to Imperial Capital. His ability and appearance are all top-notch. He's extremely worthy of you. Pull yourself together. I’ll take you over to see him tomorrow."
