“Mr. Hough, why didn’t Miss Green come?”
Before Dave finished his words, Jack’s face immediately darkened, and he said coldly, “Why would a married man like Mister Dean care so much about her?”
“Uh…” The Dean family’s smiles instantly froze on their faces, and they didn’t know what to say.
The scene was suddenly awkward. Sean stood behind, feeling very embarrassed. God, why did he have to be Jack’s assistant? Could he just run away now?
Too bad he couldn’t.
Sean held down his 10,000th urge to resign and bravely stood up to smooth things out “Excuse me, our master is in a bad mood, and he didn’t mean to offend Mister Dean…”
Sean smiled bitterly,
“It doesn’t matter. We can understand.” Mister Dean and his wife looked at each other knowingly. The young couple was quarreling. They’d been there too when they were young.
“Then I’ll arrange for lunch.”
Sean gave Dave a grateful look and then ran away quickly.
Dave turned around and looked at Isabella affectionately.
“Isabella, it’s windy here. You should go back first.”
“Okay.”
Jack stood alone, watching Dave thoughtfully accompany Mrs. Dean into the car, feeling even more irritable.
“Are you here to discuss the collaboration with me, or are you here to show off your relationship with your wife?”
“Hahaha, I can only show off my relationship to people who are still single. You are not single, are you?”
Dave smiled naively. Jack’s eyes turned cold.
“What do you mean?”
“Haha, Mr. Hough, understand me. I want to persuade you to quickly clear up the misunderstanding with Naomi so as to live a happy life.”
Dave twirled his golf club with a smile, talking about his past. “I saw it on the news yesterday, and I think it’s nothing that cannot be resolved by communication. I don’t mean you are not loyal to each other in your relationships. It’s just that I hope you don’t value your self-esteem over your relationship.”
Dave sighed heavily as he spoke as if thinking of his past. “At that time, Isabella and I broke up and got back together many times, and I thought she was cheating on me while she thought I loved someone else, but in the end, she lost a few children for me and almost died! I could never forgive myself for my stupidity. She would never have suffered if I had communicated with her about my feelings.”
Dave’s voice choked. The intense remorse in his eyes made Jack’s heart ache. He seldom comforted other people, but now he did. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
“Don’t worry, both of you are very happy now.”
“‘This happiness was what we got in return for ten years of pain. If I had rushed into her house decisively back then and told her about my feelings, I would not have experienced those hardships. Jack, as a
friend of yours, I would advise you to take the initiative. It is our responsibility as men to protect our women. You’ve got nothing to lose!”
Jack pursed his lips. The next second, he threw away his golf club, turned around, and left.
Dave was stunned.
“Mr. Hough, where are you going?”
“Giving her a chance to explain herself!” He strode away without looking back.
“‘Tsk! So arrogant!”
Dave complained in disgust and lost his cue, and started running.
“It’s boring here. I’m going to find my wife!” In the hospital corridor, Naomi sniffed, tightened her mask, and drifted around like a ghost. She didn’t expect her cold to come so suddenly and be so severe. “Ahhhh! Hurry up! Hurry up! It’s too late!”
Suddenly, a group of female doctors and nurses rushed out from the corner of the corridor, running towards Naomi hurriedly.
