The Foster Family's villa.
Adam received news that the special department would make an arrest that day.
He returned home from work and called Skyler, Leon, and Gwen, asking them to come home.
Melinda thought Adam wanted to support her and punish their ungrateful children, so she looked at him affectionately.
She coquettishly said, "I knew you loved me the most. Those ungrateful children should be punished."
She pouted and said, "Otherwise, they will continue to mistreat me, their mother."
Adam found her actions and words disgusting.
If a young girl acted like this towards her boyfriend, he would think it was normal.
But Melinda's behavior, at her age, left him speechless.
She really thinks she's still eighteen.
Since their children had not yet arrived, and the special department had not come either, he just smiled and said, "Indeed, they should be properly punished."
But the target should be changed.
Melinda looked at Adam with tender eyes and said, "You are so nice, honey."
She tried to hold his arm and act coquettishly.
If she hadn't fallen in love with someone else, maybe she would have shown affection to her husband.
But unfortunately, she could only apologize to him. Her husband's love for her was unrequited.
It was because her heart could only accommodate one man.
Now, it was just a charade with her husband.
Adam avoided Melinda's actions and said, "I'll make a phone call."
Although Adam had been enduring Melinda, they hadn't been intimate for many years.
Every time he saw Melinda in a good mood, he knew she must have met her lover.
So he pretended to want to be intimate, but it always caused her resistance.
He "loved" his wife so much, but if she wasn't willing, he naturally couldn't force her.
So, he could only "regretfully" give up.
After getting used to it, the two of them no longer had intimate moments.
In Melinda's heart, they hadn't been intimate for so many years.
It was all because she had a man she loved, and her husband couldn't bear to force her.
In terms of emotions, she was the winner.
So, the husband got up to make a phone call, and she didn't hold onto his arm or think much of it.
After a while, Skyler came back.
His body had already recovered quite a bit.
And he knew what would happen that day, so he had to come no matter what.
But he didn't show any hint of it, smiling and greeting the two of them, "Dad, Mom!" Melinda looked at Skyler with a loving expression on her face, asking about his recent life with concern.
After chatting for a while, Adam finally hung up the phone with a smile and said, "You're back!" Then he sat down next to Skyler and started talking about the company's affairs.
Melinda couldn't join in the conversation, but she was happy to see the affectionate and filial appearance of father and son.
Those two useless ones couldn't be relied on. Only Skyler is dependable
Now, she relied on her husband, and in the future, she would rely on her son. She would always be the winner in life.
When her husband was about to die, she had to coax him into transferring half of his shares to her.
Gwen: "..." Oh my god. She felt like throwing up.
