We can manage it. I just don't want your family to seize you. I really missed you."Jessica missed eating the food that Dylan had prepared, and she asked him, "Who cooked the food?"Dylan could see Jessica's face twist in a frown. He replied, "I ordered it. I didn't have a chance to cook, as I haven't been in a good mood since I realized all my mistakes."Jessica feels warm knowing that Dylan had returned to his senses.

She asked him, "Babe, are you alright?"Dylan still had a heavy frown on his face, and Jessica wondered why her husband didn't look so happy to see her.Dylan rather ignored responding to Jessica's direct question and instead asked her, "Why are you dressed like this, babe? Didn't you see that the dress looks so light and outwardly revealing?"Jessica's cheeks flamed red in embarrassment as she finally understood the angry look on Dylan's face.She immediately told him, "I am sorry, babe. I had to rush down here to be sure of what's going on. You have to cooperate with the police officers and explain to them who the lady in the videos with you is.

I will soon be off to work, so I came here to see you and to discuss something with you."Rosie sighed and asked him straightforwardly, "Okay. So what do you want to discuss with me about?"Frederick apologized to her first, "I am sorry about what happened between us last time.""You don't need to apologize to me, Fred. I am your wife," Rosie said to him, but not without looking away sadly."I know, but you have been avoiding me.

So all this time, you knew Rosie was dating my sister's husband, and you kept quiet about it?" Remy asked sadly, avoiding his wife's tearful face as she knelt behind him, crying and holding his legs."I didn't know then, Remy. Believe me, I didn't know Dylan was your brother-in-law.

Sharon smiled and told Frederick, "Don't worry about serving me anything, brother. I'll transfer 1 million dollars to you now, and if you manage it well, I'll give you another. But I hope Remy doesn't find out. He keeps loading my account with money and wonders why I don't spend it on ordering shoes and bags to look nice for him.""He's a good husband and wants you to look nice for him. I hope you can talk to him about me. I really miss my friendship with Rex. How's Rex doing now?" Frederick asked sadly. Sharon replied, "He's doing well, brother. Rex is married and has a son now.

Are you leaving for the office now?"Rosie sighed and replied, "Yes. Do you have money to take care of our kids? I hope you're not planning to sell off my two kids to raise money for yourself alone...""Rosie..." Frederick frowned and replied, "They're my kids too, and I don't need a DNA test to prove that. With the way you were comfortably cheating on me with Dylan... You can keep any money if you want. Or you might as well leave it.

You remember that I banned her before? She was asking me for a partnership."Dylan was transparent, so he stood up from the blue chair and walked up to Jessica, who was standing in the center of their bedroom, staring at him suspiciously as if he was already cheating on her again with Rosie.Dylan was wearing only a white robe, as he had just finished taking his bath.
