In fact, Anna didn't expect that Jimmy had never told Ariah about his past. How could Ariah be regarded as his wife?
Proudly, Anna looked at Ariah. "Even though you're with Jimmy, you don't know anything about his past. Ariah, I still won you on this."
Coldly, Ariah said, "You're out of your mind!"
What was there to be proud of!
"We are all women. I know what you are thinking. You said that you don't care, but in fact, you do care a lot."
At that moment, Ariah ignored her and got up to leave.
For a long while, Anna stared at Ariah's back before she suddenly asked, "Do you know Nicole?" Immediately, Ariah turned around with a frown. "Who is that? I've never heard of her before."
When Anna heard Ariah's response, she let out a weird chuckle. "I don't know. Why don't you go and ask Jimmy? He would definitely know."
After Anna said that, she stood up and walked past Ariah as she said, "I feel quite sorry for you. You're like a fool who doesn't know anything."
For a long time, Ariah was stunned, and she stood where she was, frozen.
Meanwhile, recently, Jimmy had been on fieldworks daily, and he was in charge of everything while David and Ben made sure to stay far away from him. They knew that he was in a bad mood these days, and he was like a time bomb that would blow up at any time.
"Look at him. Obviously, he is not living a harmonious life. Not only does he look sullen every day, but his temper has also been bad, and he even likes to lecture us these days."
"Why don't we think of a way to help him?"
"You're the smart one. Why don't you think of a way?"
"Why don't we go and beg Ariah?"
"How?"
"We could make a terrible scene or throw a tantrum to pester her so that she will yield to our boss..."
"Are you even a man? How could you come up with all the tricks that women love to use!"
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"If I were to come up with a plan, I'll definitely teach them a lesson. I'll give them some drugs and lock them both in the room alone. Once they are drugged and locked in a room alone, they will definitely do something!"
After Ariah and Jimmy spent a night together, the anger in their hearts would also disappear, and David and Ben would not have to be on tenterhooks all the time.
Then, David and Ben looked at each other and smiled obscenely. "Since they're a married couple, they would definitely end the intense argument with a make-up sex, hahaha..."
"What are you two b*stards squatting there for? Come here!"
At that moment, Jimmy was standing next to the car with a cigarette between his slender fingers. Then, he glanced at the two subordinates who were rushing over and ordered, "David, you will be in charge of finishing up the work while Ben and I head back to the bureau first."
"Yes, sir!"
On the way back, Jimmy narrowed his eyes and exhaled a mouthful of smoke as he asked, "What were you discussing with David just now?"
Suddenly, Ben tightened his hand on the steering wheel and stuttered, "Oh, it was nothing! We were talking about the case that happened. Sigh, the man was really ruthless. How could he do such a brutal thing to his spouse? Even the blade of the kitchen knife was blunt, and the body of his wife has been disfigured. Some might even think that there was a feud between their ancestors..."
"You seem to be talking a lot, huh?" With a faint smile, Jimmy answered, "You would often have a lot of things to say when you feel nervous and guilty."
As soon as Ben heard that, he became mute.
Meanwhile, Jimmy turned his head and looked out of the window. For today's case, once again, it was a couple who became enemies and ended with a tragedy.
It reminded him of Ariah because she was also a hot- tempered person. Besides, she would keep her words, and there was no room for any perfunctory. Otherwise, she wouldn't still be mad at him.
Even though he had boasted that he would definitely make Ariah agree to his marriage obediently, it was actually a lie, because deep down in his heart, he didn't know what to do.
As a matter of fact, he was even afraid that he would end up in tragedy.
