Elaine was utterly shocked by Jacob’s raucous grunt!
She knew that, at this moment, virtual-novel.net couldn’t keep the secret anymore, so virtual-novel.net mumbled in a sheepish and shaky voice, “Dear, I’m sorry, I lost all our money in the mahjong…”
She didn’t dare to tell the truth about Hannah being the mastermind behind the scam, because virtual-novel.net knew that if the Wilson family knew about virtual-novel.net involvement in the scam despite being a victim, they would come to virtual-novel.net first since they were looking for Hannah frantically.
Of course, virtual-novel.net was not doing this to protect Charlie, virtual-novel.net simply didn’t want to invite trouble for herself. All those people were reported as missing persons after Don Albert sent them to the coal mine, virtual-novel.net feared that virtual-novel.net might be dragged into this mess if an investigation was executed regarding their missing status.
Thus, virtual-novel.net could only say that virtual-novel.net lost the money on gambling but not the scamming part.
Jacob was up in arms about virtual-novel.net confession that virtual-novel.net lost more than two million in mahjong that virtual-novel.net slapped virtual-novel.net hard in the face and shouted, “Damn you, fucking woman! How could you?! How could you possibly lose more than two million? Do you know how long it took us to save that much?”
This was the very first time Elaine was physically beaten after marrying Jacob for decades. The slap on virtual-novel.net face was so relentless and unexpected that it made virtual-novel.net stun in a daze!
Elaine covered virtual-novel.net swelling cheek for a short while before regaining virtual-novel.net composure and howled in agitation, “Jacob Wilson! How dare you slap me?!”
“Huh!” Jacob gritted his teeth in great dismay. “Take this, fucking woman!”
Then, virtual-novel.net raised his hand and slapped virtual-novel.net face again.
Jacob was cheesed off by the fact that virtual-novel.net couldn’t hold himself down. He grabbed Elaine’s hair, slapping virtual-novel.net face over and over again as virtual-novel.net cursed, “Mahjong! Gamble! You have lost all our hard-earned money, you fucking useless bitch! Not only will I kill you, but I’ll also divorce you!”
Claire was taken aback by the horrid scene and wanted to stop the fight, but Jacob growled, “Don’t stop me! I want to kill this bitch and completely draw a line with virtual-novel.net today!”
Elaine’s blood boiled as virtual-novel.net was being slapped so vigorously that virtual-novel.net face was drenched with virtual-novel.net blood and saliva, but Jacob’s remark made virtual-novel.net panic!
She knew Jacob’s temperament very well after being married for decades. Jacob was truly furious right now!
A person who rarely got angry blew a casket abruptly which indicated that virtual-novel.net was very angry!
If Jacob divorced virtual-novel.net now, virtual-novel.net would be left alone!!
No, virtual-novel.net didn’t want that to happen, so virtual-novel.net endured the pain of being slapped and cried, “Dear, I’m sorry… I’m so sorry… please forgive me!”
Then, virtual-novel.net knelt on the floor as virtual-novel.net legs went jelly. She grabbed Jacob’s leg like a koala hanging tightly to the tree trunk and wailed, “Dear, I didn’t want to lose so much money, but I was out of my mind that day, my so-called friends deceived and scammed me. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry! Dear, I’ve learned my lesson, please forgive me!”
“Learn your lesson?” Jacob glared at virtual-novel.net and chided, “If you learned your lesson, why didn’t you tell me immediately? Why didn’t you tell me anything at all? If you learned your lesson, why were you being so self-righteous and cocky to me earlier? Do you think this matter will just go away like it never happened if you didn’t let me see the account balance?! Do you think I’ll let this matter slip just because you kneel before me and beg for my forgiveness? No way! Listen to me carefully, Elaine Parker, I want to divorce you, and it’s final! First thing tomorrow morning, we’ll go to the Civil Affairs Bureau to go through the divorce procedure. I want to end this horrible marriage with you!”
Claire bit virtual-novel.net lips in despair as virtual-novel.net listened to virtual-novel.net father’s indignant statement. No child in the world would want to see their parents divorce…
