"Mom, stop dreaming. It's impossible between me and Claire now. Even if I wanted a divorce, Cathy would have to agree. And what about her grandmother's family? Do you not care about the relationship between our families at all?" Justin said.
How could he not want a divorce? He wanted to leave that disgusting and terrifying woman.
But Cathy wouldn't let go, and because of the pressure from the Whelan family, he had no options right now.
There was no chance for him and Claire, so whether he divorced or not didn't really matter.
"You child, why are you so stubborn? If you want a divorce, your father and I will help you. We'll go talk to the Whelan family ourselves. After all, she was the one who drugged you in the first place."
Justin stopped talking. Coming home now just made him feel irritable.
Besides the war with Cathy, he had to deal with his parents' pestering.
"What drugging? What bad things are you mother and son saying about me behind my back?" Cathy had returned.
Mrs. Carter rolled her eyes. Cathy walked over and casually tossed her bag onto the sofa.
"Justin, why did you resign?" Cathy demanded.
"Resign? What do you mean?" Mrs. Carter looked at Cathy in shock.
"Ha! You didn't know? Your son has already resigned. I just found out myself. Everything was going fine, so why quit? You were the Finance Manager—such a good position, and you just quit! What on earth were you thinking!"
Mrs. Carter was frantic. "Son? Did you really quit?"
"Yes. I couldn't stay in that company for another second. Whoever wants to stay can stay, but I'm sick of it!"
"Sick of it? Are you insinuating something about me? How did I disgust you? I was planning for you! If you were willing to join hands with me to take down my uncle's family, the company would be ours. Why won't you listen? Instead, you quit. Justin, you are way too impulsive!"
"Enough! Are you trying to lecture me? Cathy, do you really think you're the master of this house? I'm telling you, I've only tolerated you out of respect for your grandmother. Otherwise, I..." Justin gritted his teeth in hatred.
"Otherwise what? What are you going to do?" Cathy leaned in, blocking him.
