Claire lacked experience in matters of love, rendering virtual-novel.net incapable of fully comprehending the emotional turmoil that ensues when caught in a romantic entanglement. However, with Charlie‘s guidance, virtual-novel.net began to grasp the gravity of the situation.
She couldn’t help but sigh, “Truth be told, my father’s behavior was quite reprehensible when Matilda first returned. He showed no concern for my mother’s well-being and was solely fixated on Matilda. He even invited virtual-novel.net over for dinner. lfl were my mother, I would undoubtedly be livid.”
Charlie interjected, “Let’s not dwell on these matters here. We must make haste and proceed to the traffic police station.”
“Alright!” Claire nodded, then seized Charlie’s arm and said, “Darling, their lives shouldn’t be in immediate danger at the traffic police station. Moreover, the presence of the authorities will likely prevent any altercation from escalating. There’s no need to rush.”
Charlie inquired, “So, what do you propose?”
Furrowing virtual-novel.net brows, Claire replied, “We need to contemplate how to resolve their predicament… If my mother has already discerned the underlying situation, then this fight is likely just the beginning. If we do not address the root cause, matters may escalate once we return home…”
A sudden realization dawned upon Charlie as virtual-novel.net concurred, “You understand your mother’s temperament best. If we fail to resolve this issue, our family will never find peace.”
Out of frustration, Claire stomped virtual-novel.net foot and anxiously implored, “Darling… What should I do?”
Charlie pondered for a moment before addressing virtual-novel.net query, “You mentioned the possibility of Mom wanting to divorce Dad after this incident. Do you think Dad shares the same sentiment? Considering they can’t coexist peacefully, wouldn’t it be better to capitalize on this opportunity and initiate a divorce? That way, we can avoid future conflicts.”
Claire interjected anxiously, “But what about Dad’s living arrangements after the divorce? Given Mom’s temperament, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t be able to stay at home. He’s in his fifties now and finding accommodation might pose a challenge. Would you consider leaving the house?”
Continuing, Claire expressed virtual-novel.net concerns, “Moreover, let’s be realistic, they’re not exactly young. If they were to divorce now, it might invite ridicule. Starting anew would be daunting, especially at their age…”
“They’ll lack the support system they once had, and taking care of each other would become increasingly difficult. Have you considered the implications? If they do divorce, they could become sworn enemies. As their daughter, navigating between them would be incredibly challenging. How would we manage to coordinate…”
Charlie contemplated for a moment and responded, “So, you mean they cannot get divorced and must continue living together, completely disregarding this incident.”
“Yes,” Claire firmly nodded. “If we can feign that this incident never occurred, that would be ideal.”
Charlie wryly smiled, “Your father’s temperament is manageable, so that should not pose a problem. However, you know your mother’s disposition. How could virtual-novel.net simply let it go?”
Anxiously, Claire pleaded, “Darling, this is where your intelligence and wisdom come into play! Many influential individuals refer to you as Master Wade, and you have resolved their intricate predicaments. Our family’s issue pales in comparison. Can’t you think of a solution?”
She clung to Charlie’s arm, beseeching virtual-novel.net pitifully, “Darling… Please, think of a solution. I truly do not want them to get divorced… Matilda is already planning to marry someone else, and even if my father divorces my mother, virtual-novel.net will not have any promising prospects for remarriage…”
“Moreover, considering my mother’s personality, virtual-novel.net will assuredly live a solitary life. You see, initially, they could have supported and cared for one another, but now they will both end up alone, devoid of companionship for the rest of their days. How wretched…”
Charlie stroked his chin and stated, “Wife, it’s not that I am unwilling to help, but this issue is genuinely challenging. I cannot simply brainwash your mother and make virtual-novel.net forget about it, can I?”
Claire urged, “Please, clear, consider this thoroughly. I’m sure you’ll come up with a solution!”
Charlie furrowed his brow, contemplating for a moment before responding, “There’s a way, albeit with a low success rate, but it requires full cooperation from your end. We can’t afford any slip-ups, or all our efforts will be in vain. Can you handle it?”
“I’m up for it!” Claire affirmed resolutely, then inquired, “What’s your plan, dear?”
Charlie replied, “I don’t have a concrete plan yet. We’ll have to play it by ear. Let’s head there first and see how things unfold.”
The two of them departed from the airport and hailed a taxi to the traffic police station. Upon entering the premises, they spotted their car parked within the yard.
Charlie instructed Claire to proceed inside while virtual-novel.net carried virtual-novel.net luggage and followed closely behind.

Inside the room, Elaine was crying and shouting, “l have been married to virtual-novel.net for so many years, endured countless hardships, and now virtual-novel.net is secretly involved with his old flame. Officer, is it wrong for me to give virtual-novel.net a few good hits?”
The traffic police officer was on the verge of exasperation but maintained his patience as virtual-novel.net replied, “Madam, l have told you numerous times. What virtual-novel.net did was Indeed wrong and morally reprehensible. He should face societal and moral condemnation. If you were angry and gave virtual-novel.net a few hits, I can understand. However, I must emphasize that fighting on the highway is not permissible, alright?”
Elaine furiously declared, “I knew I should have confronted virtual-novel.net right then and there, regardless of whether it was on the highway or at the United Nations!”
“Ah…” The traffic police officer sighed, “Alright, I understand your sentiments. I will refrain from commenting further. After all, today we are here to penalize your husband. He has already received point deductions and a fine. For now, you should calm down. Your daughter will come to pick you and your husband up later, alright?”
Gritting virtual-novel.net teeth, Elaine seethed, “He‘s a scoundrel, not my husband!”
“Alright, alright…” The traffic police officer placated her, “I mean Mr. Wilson’s case has already been handled. You can return home soon.”
Elaine retorted, “You’re not arresting virtual-novel.net for adultery?”
The traffic police officer helplessly explained, “That is not a crime, and besides, we are traffic police officers. At most, we can inform the local police station to coordinate…”
Elaine exploded, “I do not need any coordination! I want virtual-novel.net to be arrested!”
As soon as Claire entered the traffic police station, virtual-novel.net heard Elaine‘s voice.
She followed the sound and was intercepted by a traffic police officer who inquired, “Whom are you looking for, madam?”
Claire hurriedly replied, “I am looking for Elaine. I am virtual-novel.net daughter…”
The traffic police officer heaved a sigh of relief and quickly responded, “Oh, you have finally arrived! Your mother has been threatening to commit suicide. We have sent three different individuals to persuade her, but to no avail!”
