Jenkins didn’t expect Flora to say no at all.
“Have I ever had dignity in front of you? From the beginning I told you that I said I liked you, and now how many years have passed? Ah?!”
After Hale Cobb Law Firm closed down, Adriana re-located the firm and renamed it YY Law Firm, leaving it in the hands of Jenkins and Vivian. It was at that time that Peter placed her at YY Law Firm, and that’s when she met Jenkins.
One after another, they like this well-mannered and gentle man.
At first, it was because he had Alvin’s shadow in him, after all, both are the same type of warm man.
Gradually, she discovered that Jenkins was different from Alvin.
One is a rich aristocrat and the other is a struggling boy from a poor family.
She witnessed him step by step to the present, from the initial timid, obsequious to now alone to support a piece of heaven.
Flora is all over it.
After that, Adriana disappeared for four years.
Until Adriana came back again, until now, before and after 6 years.
“I have loved you for six years, ask, how many six years a girl has, why do you have to reject me again and again? Jenkins, I ask you, is it because I am not good-looking, not good enough for you? Or do you think I’m not good enough? Why do you dodge every time we meet, can’t you behave like a man?”
Flora was unconvinced and a little stubborn.
She has always felt that she is a noble little princess, and everyone will treat her like a guest, but did not expect to meet with Jenkins repeatedly.
“Do you know how many people have stepped over the threshold of the Henderson Family to ask me to marry them? I’m not too young now, and you’re not too young either, so why can’t either of you be more mature?”
She questioned.
The sound was loud, even a little broken.
Jenkins has always been expressionless.
Looking down at the girl in front of him, he said, “Yes, yes. We’re all grown up and should be mature, but you, why are you so childish?”
Jenkins is a lawyer, handling all the big cases of the Waverly family, but it is he who has seen too much of the family and feels the need to stay away from them.
Compared to ordinary people, the gentry are more scheming and ruthless.
And Flora was the jewel of the Henderson Family, the little princess, and there were countless noble men who liked her, and she did refuse.
Even, it has been unknown how many times because Flora chased him, and invited many noblemen to find fault.
Jenkins is exhausted from being counted time and time again, and more than that, he doesn’t want to be so tired of living in the future.
“Damn you!”
Flora was furious and reached out and pushed Jenkins’ chest, “Jenkins, you’re not a man, you’re a wimp! I don’t understand what I see in you!”
Her chest rose and fell in anger and rage.
“Right. So you should reflect on yourself and whether something is wrong with your brain.”
Jenkins mocked mercilessly.
Raising his wrist, he looked at his wristwatch time and said, “Get out of the way. I have a client to see later, so don’t take up my time.”
“It’s just a broken case, what’s the big deal? I’ll pay you whatever your client can pay you! And then you take that time to spend with me, okay?”
“See, that’s the problem between you and me. How can we go on when we have different views? You are a princess on high, and I am still struggling constantly. Now Vivian is taking a break and I’m taking care of the company alone, the slightest mistake and there’s no telling what awaits me. I have more than a hundred employees below me whose lives I need to take care of. For you, talking about a client is a matter of a little money, for me, it’s a responsibility, it’s my job. Maybe I don’t earn much, but it doesn’t affect my hard work and dedication. As for you, a famous lady with a thousand dollars, even if you do nothing, you can be clothed and fed. I have my mother behind me, my sister Hayley, Leonidas, and Adriana, and I have to make myself work to give them a better haven.
I can’t even do the basics now, what do you think I can give you by being with you? Not only can I not give you anything, but on the contrary, all I get is exhaustion. When the time comes, you will feel that we are not compatible with each other, and then tell me that you want to divorce. We, The Hale family, can’t afford to be tossed around.”
Jenkins has always felt incompetent.
Many times wanted to protect Adriana, to protect Hayley, but in the end he did not do anything.
Only then did I realize that it was so hard to make myself strong.
If he can’t even protect his family, what will he do to take care of his feelings with Flora?
Jenkins admits to being a wimp.
But, he admitted it.
“It’s Adriana again!”
Flora can’t forgive Adriana until now, “You know how to protect them, why can’t you think of protecting me?”
“Because they are my family.”
“What about me? I’ve loved you for six years, what am I?”
Flora reached out and poked her chest, “I once thought you were a responsible man, but look at yourself, what are you now? Like a wimp!”
“Yeah, I’m such a wimp, what do you see in me? Think I’m the little white guy to bag?”
“You …!”
“Get out of the way!”
Jenkins did not want to continue to talk with Flora, a tug on her arm to throw her aside, pull open the car door directly into the car.
Start the sedan and leave in the dust.
Just walking away from him, he will also go through the rearview mirror to look at Flora standing in the same place.
The road was slippery in the winter when it was icy and he was very slow.
Snort–
Suddenly, several cars appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
The door of the car opened and a man stepped out, followed by five or six suited thugs standing by his car door.
Knock Knock-
The man knocked on the glass window.
Jenkins’ face was grim and very ugly, but still lowered the window.
“Jenkins, you’ve forgotten all the good things I said to you before, haven’t you?”
The man clutched an electric baton in his hand and pointed at him arrogantly, “I’ve told you many times to stay away from Flora, you fuck a pestering endlessly. Do you want to die?”
Jenkins sat in the car, his face mournful, “When I say something, I deliver.”
“Bah!”
The man grabbed Jenkins by the collar, “I’m warning you, stay away from Flora, and if I see you tangling with her next time, I’ll kill your mother!”
“Don’t you dare!”
Jenkins burst out in anger, angry forehead green warp ripples, the whole person full of anger.
As far as he was concerned, his mother Thelma, despite her many faults, was his mother.
He is bound to protect.
“Ouch, what’s the point of being arrogant with me? I heard that your sister’s husband died? Oh, if your sister is lonely, brother can find a few brothers to spoil her well spoil her ah. Hahaha …”
They laughed uncontrollably.
The person in question is Hayley, naturally.
Jenkins hands clutching the steering wheel of the car, anger straight to the brain, and finally gritted his teeth and said, “I warn you, stay away from my family, otherwise, do not blame me and you are not polite!”
