At Jared's question, Sandy shook her head vigorously. “No! I'm not done! Please forgive me, Jared! I was really coerced into it all! I had no choice either!”
“That has nothing to do with me anymore!”
Then, Jared started wounding up the car window.
However, Sandy clung to the car window and refused to let go.
In the passenger seat, Josephine's blood boiled. Despite the torrential rain, she swung open the car door and stalked out.
“How shameless are you? Hurry up and let go! If you dare pester my husband anymore, I'll get someone to break your leg! Mark my words!” Josephine roared at Sandy. Eyeing the latter disdainfully, she continued, “Who do you think you are? Compared to me, how are you better in any way? Are you more loaded than me? Are you more powerful than me? Or are you more beautiful than me? You're inferior to me in all aspects! Why should
Jared forgive you and choose you? There's no turning back in life! Since you didn't know how to appreciate him, it's now too late to come and beg him! Buzz off!”
Subsequently, Josephine kicked her hard, sending her to the ground.
Sandy glowered at Josephine, but she hadn't the guts or temerity to utter a single word.
After all, Josephine was right in that Sandy couldn't hold a candle to her. As such, there was no reason for Jared to choose her.
When she had ceased at long last, Josephine made her way back to the passenger seat and slammed the door shut. “Drive!”
Jared glanced at her, a smile tugging at his lips. He floored the gas pedal and sped off.
“Jared!” Sandy yelled.
Alas, Jared paid her no mind.
Sandy had always thought that it was Josephine backing Jared up. Hence, there was nothing to fear about him after Josephine dumped him. Never had she expected herself to be a clown in the end. In truth, the Sullivan family could neither influence Walter nor Tommy. Instead, everything was because of Jared.
That said, she just couldn't fathom what exactly had changed about him that all those big shots treated him deferentially.
“Why are you smiling? Don't you think that I'm particularly fierce?” Josephine questioned, throwing Jared a glare.
