Jonathan brought Irene home. He flung her hand aside, and Irene lost her balance, falling to the
ground.

“Let’s cut ties,” Jonathan said, his voice full of pain. “How much do you want? I’ll write you a check. Let’s cut off all ties.” He looked like he had completely lost all hope and turned to leave.
rene clung to Jonathan’s leg. “You can’t do this to me. How could you just leave me like this?”
Jonathan pulled Irene up from the floor. “What do you want from me? What will it take for you to finally be satisfied?”

Irene sobbed. “I’m only doing this for you. I wanted to use this chance to help you fight for custody of the kids. I also wanted to stand up for you.”
“Stand up for me? Then why did you press Teresa so hard in court? Will you only be satisfied if she ends up in jail?”
“Yes! I want Teresa and her sister to rot in jail. Is that so wrong? She has hurt you so much, made you
so obsessed, and after having kids, she wouldn’t even let you have them. She did it all on purpose.”
“We never got remarried, so why should she give me the kids? You’re obsessed with having grandchildren. If you want a kid that badly, just go pick one up from the orphanage yourself.”
With that, Jonathan shook her off, and Irene fell to the ground again, sobbing as she yelled, “How could an adopted child ever compare to your own flesh and blood?
“That woman has been bleeding you dry ever since she married you. She had kids and wouldn’t even let you have them. What is she really up to?”
Jonathan snapped, “I love her, and I want to spend money on her. When she married me, she didn’t even want a luxury wedding gift. She only asked for 9 thousand dollars, and even paid out of her own pocket for Grandpa’s heart surgery.
“She covered tens of thousands of dollars for Grandma’s funeral, too. When we divorced, she walked away with nothing. And you say she never spent money on me?”
Irene was stunned, “What are you even saying? Did she really pay for Grandpa’s surgery? Didn’t she ask you for 60 thousand dollars?”
“Who told you that?”
“Yvonne told me!” But Yvonne’s gone.

“You’re always like this. You’d rather believe her than your own son, or even Teresa. Do you really think I don’t know the kind of person she is? I know her a hundred times better than you ever could.”
Irene’s lips quivered. Her whole world was turned upside down. It was like everything she’d stubbornly believed all this time had been a mistake.
Irene would never admit she was wrong about Teresa. “Yvonne grew up with you. She was such a good person. She’d never lie. If it hadn’t been for…”
“Enough! She’s gone. Why are you even bringing this up now? I’m talking about Teresa. Thanks to
you,

both our families are completely torn apart. Teresa and I will never get back together. Is this what you wanted? Are you satisfied now?”
“Yeah. I’m satisfied. Isn’t this just great? Look at her family. What a bunch of people they are!”
Even at that moment, Irene was still trying to dodge responsibility, refusing to admit she was wrong. Jonathan clamped down hard on her wrist.

He glared at Irene, his eyes locked on her with cold intensity. “Look at you’ve done. When I married her, I swore I’d love her and protect her for the rest of my life.
