After Jonas and June left, Mark was furious. He pointed at his wife, Adah, and reprimanded, "Look at what you've done. You've offended him. Do you know how much Jonas can help us?"
"Dad, if you want to blame someone, blame me. I offended him. Don't scold mom." Zhang Yu stood up to protect her mother as she realized how stupid her actions were. Adah was displeased as she felt wronged. "I did it for the sake of my daughter's happiness. Is it wrong to ask her to get Jonas back when she should be Jonas's wife in the first place?"
"Do you think we have such luck? Last time you were the one that refused Xiao Yu to marry him. In the end, June was forced by us to marry him instead. And you are now jealous because she is living a good life. Adah, can you use your brain? If we are rich, we won't have to worry about our daughter not being able to find a good husband." Mark felt that his wife was short-sighted and hopeless.
Adah’s face was red and she was speechless.
"Dad, don't blame Mom. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have fallen in love with Jonas." Zhang Yu cried sadly. Since she was a child, she could get whatever she wanted. But now she realized that there were some things that can't be forced.
"Alright, stop causing any more trouble to June and Jonas anymore. I still want to live a few more years." After saying that, Mark turned around and left.
There were only three women left in the big private room.
"Mom, how can we leave that b*tch just like that?" Zhang Xue did not want to give up just yet.
Adah fell on the chair with a haggard look. No matter how good she was at scheming, there was nothing she could do. "You all heard Jonas's warning. He doesn't seem to be joking."
The sadness on Zhang Yu's face became more intense. She cried sadly on the table.
"But this will cost my sister's happiness. It's not worth it." Zhang Xue looked at her sister, who was crying uncontrollably, and felt sorry for her.
"Your sister is excellent, she can always meet better men. It's okay if Jonas doesn't want her." Adah said furiously as she wanted to comfort Zhang Yu.
Zhang Yu took her bag and ran out after hearing this.
Zhang Xue quickly ran up to chase her, she was afraid that her sister might do something impulsive.
Just at this moment, the waiter brought in delicious food. Adah had no appetite at all. She had been tolerating life thinking that the sacrifices made were worth it but unfortunately nothing went the way she wished.
She didn't want to tear apart her family. It would be a tragedy if her husband left them for June and his mother.
After June followed Jonas out of the restaurant, they went to a more quiet restaurant next door.
She enjoyed the night view by the window. This placed her mind at ease and at peace.
"Thank you." June finally had a chance to say this to him as she didn't dare to say anything along the way.
Jonas looked at her longingly and asked, "What are you thanking me for?" Jonas raised his eyebrows and played dumb.
"Thank you for standing by my side and allowing me to hold my head up in front of the Zhang family," June said in a serious tone.
"You are unique and you were never inferior to anyone." His heart ached at the thought of how she had lived her life under disdain and mistreatment since young, he wanted those people to have a taste of despair.
