Chapter 211 Futile

When Zachary saw the phone call from Joey, he thought she came to apologize.He picked up the call and uttered casually, "Even if you apologize now, I will not come back right away."There was a brief silence."Rose came to my place. Can you come back?" asked Joey impassively.The smile on Zachary's face vanished in an instant. He asked, "What did my grandmother do?""We'll speak when … Grandma!" Joey screamed before hanging up.With his phone in his hand, Zachary's mind went blank briefly.He knew how nasty Rose could be. Why would she visit the Lintons all of a sudden?…To Joey's horror, Monica fainted. Rose too was shocked."Grandma!" Joey immediately pulled Monica into her arms and called an ambulance."Once Zachary is back, head to the city council and sign the divorce papers." Seeing Monica's critical condition, Rose left as soon as she dropped the final sentence.Joey was sitting on the floor. Tears rolled uncontrollably down her cheek as she wailed to the unconscio

Chapter 212 To the Brink

Zachary walked to her side and sat down.Henry stepped forward and politely said to Selena, "Let's leave the two of them to talk it out."Selena said nothing. She turned and walked toward the stairs.Once they left, Zachary tugged on his tie and replied, "I'd like to speak with Grandma in person. Why does she hope that we'll divorce? Doesn't she like me a lot?""Are you saying that liking you excuses your grandma for what she said to her? Who do you think you are?" Joey snapped back.Her eyes were bloodshot and her voice was filled with anger. Her whole body trembled uncontrollably."I've received her care in the past, after all, so I should apologize to her in person," he said in a low voice.She thought about it. Although he disliked her, he was indeed quite good to her grandma.Besides, Monica deserved an apology. But she understood that the current situation could not be resolved with an apology.She looked fed up."My grandma's situation has nothing to do with you any lo

Chapter 213 It's All Too Late

Zachary did not feel like replying to Elise. Hanson gave him an indifferent glance and left as well.Elise, who didn't get a reply, sneered and walked off to the side to sit down. She had to stay here today to show Joey how reliable she was!Joey and Kenneth had only been waiting on the first floor of the hospital for a short while when Hanson joined them."What are you guys here for?" Joey asked in a cold voice when he neared.Hanson replied, "We were worried, so we came to have a look."He was not good with words, so he did not know how to communicate with Joey. Just the thought that she could be his sister made him even more nervous. He did not know how to act.Kenneth became anxious upon seeing him speak.He quickly said on his behalf, "We were worried that you'd be treated poorly. We knew that your grandma was hospitalized because of Zachary's grandmother."Joey nodded. She seemed a little depressed."I'm fine. I won't be treated poorly," she reassured them."Shall we

Chapter 214 Marriage Alliance

Harold understood what Zachary meant—previous quarrels about divorce were taken lightly, but it was serious this time."Have you made up your mind?" Harold asked Zachary."Yes," Zachary replied.As soon as he said that, Rose emerged from the kitchen carrying a plate of fruits.Cheerfully, she said, "Zac, you're back? Have some fruit. I've prepared the freshest peaches for you."Zachary looked at her, feeling utterly helpless. Instead of responding, he headed upstairs."Zac," Rose called, but Zachary didn't turn back."For whom am I doing all of this? Isn't it all for him? My good intentions have caused me to do bad things!" Rose whined as she began to tear up.With a stoic expression, Harold entered the study room, refusing to hear another word from her.Since it was pointless to put on such an act when she was alone, Rose sat alone on the sofa, angrily eating the peaches.Soon, Zachary came downstairs with his luggage in hand.Shocked, Rose quickly stood up. Her eyes began

Chapter 215 Countless Explanations

Joey watched over Monica in the hospital for a few days.Although Monica had awakened, Zachary hadn't visited since the day he discussed the divorce with Joey.Monica suspected that Zachary deliberately did not come to visit so that he could prolong the matter."Give him a call and ask when he's coming," Monica said as she lay on the bed. Her voice was weak.Joey peeled a banana for her and responded, "Sure. I'll call him after you finish the banana."Looking at Joey affectionately, Monica asked, "Are you mad at me for forcing you to get a divorce?""To be honest, you might laugh at this, but I've brought up the topic of divorce with him several times even before this happened," Joey said with a bitter smile."I won't laugh at you. Was it after you found out that he had an affair that you wanted to work and be financially independent?" Monica asked while eating the banana."I'm not sure how to put it. You can ask him directly when the time comes," Joey replied. She lowered her

Chapter 216 She Will Get Angry

Wheezing heavily, Monica looked at Zachary.Her voice filled with resentment, she said, "D-Divorce her tomorrow, from now on, our families will have no relations at all. I truly don't want to see you and your family anymore."When Zachary arrived, he still harbored a glimmer of hope. However, Monica's attitude had made it clear that he had ultimately lost Joey.When he was silent, Monica wept as she asked, "What do you think my Jojo is ... that you can bully her like this? You even accused her of stealing the house you bought for her."Jojo is the apple of my eye. After marrying you, I knew our family's status didn't match up to yours, yet I made her endure everything for you."How could you cheat on her? How could you betray her like this?"She didn't even have enough time to shower Jojo with love, yet the Gray family had already trampled all over her.Zachary tightly held her hand, unable to utter a word. He couldn't deny that the Gray family had mistreated Joey. When he didn'

Chapter 217 A New Beginning

After the divorce procedures were completed, they exited the clerk's office.Henry was waiting outside. When they came out, he handed a file to Zachary.Zachary took the document kit and passed it to Joey. "This is the last time I'll address you as my wife."Joey had intended to refuse whatever he offered, but upon hearing his words, a surge of mixed feelings arose within her. Looking at Zachary, she found it hilarious yet sad."Yeah, alright." She took the document kit, her tone indifferent.Zachary gazed at Joey, lips slightly pursed. He remained silent for a while before averting his eyes."I did wrong by you in these three years, in terms of both love and my family. I didn't take you into consideration enough. I apologize."As he was done speaking, he found it funny. Perhaps Joey had long waited for the divorce, and it was he who was unwilling to let go.It was akin to granting her freedom.Joey looked at him, her voice calm and distant. "There's no need for that. From n

Chapter 218 The Boastful Gets Beaten Up

Elise thought it might be better to not say anything in case it made Joey feel inferior. She found a quiet place to sit down and silently observed Joey.Elise thought that Joey was amazing, talented, and down-to-earth. While working on her designs, she was so focused that she hardly ate or drank.Yet, Zachary still managed to push things to the point of divorce.She heard that Rose looked down on Joey's background.Elise knew that Charles and Monica raised her. They were genuine rural folks who lived off in a village, relying on agriculture for a living.Such a background was indeed unacceptable for any prominent family.However, Elise found Joey's qualities to be rare. Even though she married Zachary, she had always been managing her own career, not becoming completely dependent on her wealthy husband.Joey was oblivious to the fact that Elise was praising her from head to toe in her heart.When work was about to end, Elise hurriedly stood up. "Hanson wants us to go to the caf

Chapter 219 Additional Conditions

Julia started crying. "I don't know you at all! You're slandering me."Elise sneered. "It's right for me to slander you. Who cares if you managed to win over a man with your cheap means?"You came all this way to provoke the rightful wife. Either you're incredibly bored or incredibly bitchy!"Joey knew it was pointless to stop Elise, and Julia deserved it.For Zachary, she instigated Rose to come knocking on her door to cause a ruckus, and that almost cost Monica her life. Why should she sympathize with a person like Julia?Originally, Julia had come to mock Joey, but unexpectedly, someone suddenly appeared to protect her."Jojo, save me! She's bullying me. Zac won't spare her!" Julia, seeing Elise's ferocity, immediately turned to Joey for mercy.At that moment, Hanson appeared. Holding her shoulders, he gently pulled Joey behind him."Do you want me to call Zachary for you now?" Facing Julia, Hanson's demeanor turned much colder.Julia was stunned for a moment. She glanced a

Chapter 220 Keep The People Around You In Check

While they were discussing pastries, a few police officers suddenly entered.Elise immediately stood up, on guard."What's going on?" Hanson asked, hands on the table as he stood up."Ms. Fisher reported that you assaulted her, so we need you to come to the station and make a statement," the leading police officer said to Hanson."It was me; it has nothing to do with them. I'll go with you," Elise said, stepping forward with her head held high.Instead of appearing weak, Elise looked rather proud, which Joey thought might earn Elise criticism."Ms. Fisher mentioned three people, so all of you need to come with us," the police officer insisted firmly.Since a report had been filed, the police had to handle it accordingly.Joey was all too familiar with Julia's cunning ploys; if the police were being so insistent, things might not be as simple as they seemed."Okay, we'll go with you," Joey said meekly.Hanson had no choice but to follow Joey's lead.At the station, upon seein
