“Grandfather, I have my own plans. Please don’t interfere anymore!” Patrick said and left.
Mike angrily threw his cane at him and fell onto the sofa. Beatrice and Melissa quickly rushed over to check on him. “Mike, are you okay?”
“Grandfather, please don’t scare me!” Melissa was panicking, unsure of what to do.
Beatrice urged, “Call an ambulance and take him to the hospital!”
And so, the two of them took Mike to the hospital.
While the doctors were trying to save him inside, Beatrice and Melissa waited outside.
“Take this opportunity to grab hold of Patrick. Otherwise, it will be too late!” One second Beatrice was trying to persuade Patrick to reconcile with Jane, and the next second, she was advising Melissa to take the initiative.
Melissa felt worried. The situation today was strange, and she didn’t know what to do. Everything seemed so complicated.
“Can they really get a divorce so easily?” Melissa asked.
Beatrice sat in a chair and confidently replied, “Yes, they can, definitely!”
With her presence, this marriage would end, divorce or not!
With this assurance, Melissa suddenly felt a glimmer of hope and her interest piqued.
After a while, the doctors wheeled Mike out, and the two of them hurriedly approached and asked, “Doctor, how is he?”
“Mike is old, and his health is not too good. He needs to be careful in his daily life!” The doctor’s words left a lasting impression on Beatrice.
They pushed Mike into the ward, and Beatrice called the doctor out.
“Is Mike really okay?” Beatrice still had some concerns.
“His health is indeed not good, and he is quite weak. So, he should avoid getting him angry, otherwise, it can easily lead to complications!”
Upon hearing this, Beatrice became fearful and made a mental note.
While Melissa stayed in the ward with Mike, her mind was preoccupied with the situation involving Jane. She had no idea what to do!
When Beatrice returned, Melissa approached her and asked, “What should I do now?”
Beatrice patted her shoulder, and the two of them left together.
“Go apologize to Jane, ask for her forgiveness, and make sure they don’t get divorced. Take all the responsibility upon yourself!” Beatrice schemed in her mind.
“Why should I do that? Aren’t we trying to get them divorced?” Melissa didn’t quite understand.
Beatrice tapped her head and said, “You’re really clueless! I know Jane’s personality too well. She’s reached her limit now, and even if you go to her, she won’t change her mind!”
Although they didn’t know why Patrick was so determined to get a divorce, since it had already happened, it would undoubtedly continue!
Listening to Beatrice’s words, Melissa left the hospital and went straight to Jane’s company. After all, Jane should be at the office at this time!
As soon as she arrived downstairs, she was stopped by the security guard.
“Let me in! I want to see Jane!” Melissa was already angry, and now she was even more furious!
“I’m sorry, there are regulations from the boss. Without an appointment, you can’t go in!” The security guard was just doing his job.
In her heart, Melissa cursed Jane multiple times out of anger!
Sarah had just arrived at the company and saw Melissa in a rage. She found a security guard and asked about the situation.
“You’re Miss Pansy, right? Come with me!”
Sarah led Melissa upstairs and directly into the office.
Jane was taken aback when she saw her. “What are you doing here?”
As soon as Melissa saw Jane, she immediately knelt down and shouted, “I’m sorry, it’s all my fault. I was wrong. Please don’t get a divorce!”
Jane never mentioned anything about her family affairs at the company, so Sarah was completely unaware.
“Get up first!” Jane was getting impatient.
“If you don’t agree, I won’t get up. Please, sister-in-law, don’t get a divorce, okay?” Melissa cried incessantly, treating Jane as her last straw for salvation.
Jane sat on the chair and glanced at her. “Isn’t this the result you wanted all along? Why aren’t you satisfied now that you have it?”
“No, I never wanted to ruin your relationship, and the two children were my own decision. It has nothing to do with anyone else. Mike, because of all these things happening, I don’t want to see a perfectly good family turn out like this.”
Now everything happening at Pansy’s Old Mansion had nothing to do with Jane. It sounded like she was listening to someone else’s story.
“Since the words have been said, there’s no turning back. I think you should understand that! If you continue causing trouble at the company, you’ll have to face the consequences yourself.” Jane could sense that Melissa’s visit today wasn’t genuine, just a way to test her determination.
They had long been familiar with each other’s tricks.
“I’ve been at home, feeling annoyed. I’ve wanted to come and apologize to you for a long time, and today I finally have the chance. I want to beg for your forgiveness. If it can’t make you change your mind, I’m willing to leave with the children!”
Upon hearing this, Jane laughed directly. “Just leave! Now you know how to say these things? It’s already too late!”
Sarah glanced at Jane and pulled Melissa up. “Let’s go! I’ll escort you out.”
Melissa struggled, unwilling to leave. Jane’s attitude was already clear.
After hesitating for a moment, she had no choice but to leave.
Sarah returned to the office and asked with concern, “Why didn’t you say anything about the family situation?”
Jane sighed bitterly. “What’s the use of saying it? Faced with such a miserable life, one trouble after another, I don’t want to talk about it!”
Jane had already become indifferent to this kind of life. From now on, she would live alone with her children, completely detached from others, with no ties or connections.
“If I had known you were living such a difficult life, I shouldn’t have burdened you with so many things in the company. Why didn’t you tell us? Did you never consider us as true friends from the beginning?”
Although their relationship was that of superior and subordinate, and the company was founded by Jane, they were more like partners who couldn’t do without each other.
Jane gently patted his shoulder. “It’s okay, everything will pass. I’ll handle it myself.”
“Don’t worry about the company!”
Jane saw Sarah off and sent a text message to Patrick, arranging a meeting time.
Patrick and Jane stood in front of the divorce registration counter.
“Have you both considered it? This is your last chance to change your minds.”
