Seeing Aaron's disrespectful behavior towards his wife, Joe immediately reacted. He, who initially did not want to make trouble before Lucas came, now retaliated against the man by pulling his body and then staring at him while saying, "Shut your foul mouth, Aaron. Jesslyn is my wife, and your mouth full of garbage has no right to utter a single word about her."

Joe pushed Aaron's body, causing the man to connect to the back.

"How dare you!" Oliver rushed forward, he wanted to get back at Joe, but Aaron first raised his hand as a stop code.

"Don't get violent with him. Think of it, I accepted his rough treatment earlier as a form of battle in getting Jesslyn's heart," Aaron forbade. He looked sarcastically at Joe, who seemed to tighten his grip on his hand due to overwhelming emotions.

"But, Mr. Aaron, he acted disrespectfully towards you. How could he push a business partner of the company he works for? How dare he!" Oliver was trying to make things worse, and he loved cornering Joe.

    In the car, Jesslyn looked at her husband, who was driving, with admiring eyes. Her fingers linked. She didn't expect the husband she had always looked down upon and despised to defend her to such an extent. The man even proved his words and was able to fight back against the people who had insulted him with unexpected attacks."Why are you looking at me like that, Jess? Is there something wrong with my face?" Joe raised one eyebrow. He knew what was in his wife's heart but wanted to play with her for a while.With a mischievous look, Joe occasionally looked at Jesslyn, who looked embarrassed at being caught staring at her husband's face for a long time."N-no, I'm just ...." Jesslyn was nervous, her eyes wildly staring here and there until it made Joe laugh softly."Honestly, you must be fascinated with this handsome husband of yours, right?" Joe gave a seductive smile, which was rewarded with a gentle punch by Jesslyn on his arm."Hey, don't hit me. Do you want us to get hurt later?"

    "Did you just realize that? That's too bad," Zack interrupted. He didn't want the tears dripping from his sister's eyes to melt his parents.Even though they were both born to the same parents, Zack felt superior because he was born a man—a family leader who could control and organize everything.Jess looked down for a moment. Her eyes gazed at the collection of suitcases lying unceremoniously on the floor."If you consider me a burden, why do you still expect money from me? Aren't you ashamed of using money from someone you call a burden?" Jesslyn raised her face. This time, that disappointed expression started to turn into hate."You're still asking?" Zack approached his older sister and then pushed her. "Didn't I tell you that you must repay all the hard work that Mom and Dad have put in over the years? Who do you think you've been living off of? Who's been paying for your university fees, food, etc.? Do you think that doesn't require money? So, it's only natural that mom and dad wo

    Joe and Jesslyn circled the city in their new car. Luckily, they have a car. Otherwise, they would have to spend even more money to find a new place to live because they would have to rent a car."Where are we going to live after this, Joe? I don't think I have enough money if we have to rent a house." Jesslyn complained. She looked at her wallet, which only contained a few bills. While in her ATM, there was only a little money left because she had spent a lot to pay several accounts at her parents' house. She had also shopped many necessities for the next month's stock."Don't worry. I still have money, even though it's not much. Is it okay if we just rent a small flat? At least we can sleep tonight without sleeping in the car." Joe said.Jesslyn sighed heavily, then nodded. From the beginning, she could already imagine the difficulties she would face after moving out of her parents' house. But she couldn't insist on staying in the same place as her parents after being dishonorably ev

    Seeing Noona's contained figure beside their car while knocking on the window, Jesslyn decided to go outside first and asked Joe to stay in the car."What's wrong?" Jesslyn, to the point, expressed her astonishment. She looked at Noona, who looked miserable."There's something I want to talk to you about."Without Jesslyn realizing it, Noona quickly grabbed her hand and led her away from the car.Joe, who saw this, intended to get out of the car and catch up with his wife, but Jesslyn immediately gave the code for her husband to remain silent.After the two of them were a few meters away from the car, Noona released her hand grip. She stared at Jesslyn while smacking her lips. She folded her arms across her chest as if belittling her lover's sister."I want that car," Noona said aloud. Jesslyn, who heard it, immediately furrowed her brows as a sign that she didn't understand what the woman had just said."You mean you want a new car?" Jesslyn asked for an explanation.Noona shook her

    "What if I can't make the real estate business grow? What if your business suffers a loss? Aren't you afraid of loss?" Joe asked for further explanation.Although there is a saying that "if you want to succeed, you have to take risks," Joe didn't want to follow that saying. He didn't want to risk losing his current job to start something new because he had to work hard to make his wife happy.It's been quite a few years since he's bothered Jesslyn and stayed home. He needs to rebuild his self-esteem."In the cooperation agreement, there is not a single point that harms you. I will also give you a generous salary according to your current work standard." Lucas took the document he had handed to Joe and then showed the points of the agreement he was explaining."Are you sure?" The doubt that was in his heart did not diminish at all. Now, it was growing."Why? Don't you trust me? I won't trap you or set you up. All the points of the agreement that I wrote there are clearly stated, and we

    Joe looked at Aaron with one eyebrow raised, and he was confused by the man's presence, especially when he saw the disrespectful behavior that the man did by entering the CEO's room without knocking on the door first.Moreover, he increasingly needed help understanding the words spoken by Aaron. What wrong had his wife done that they both had to be fired?"What do you mean, what wrong has my wife done?" Joe asked. A cold, flat tone fell from his lips."Has your wife told you anything yet?" Aaron chuckled. He flashed a smile as he saw Jesslyn looking uncomfortable and intimidated by the gaze he was giving her.Joe was silent, his hand clasped even tighter around his wife's hand. His gaze did not move an inch from Aaron's figure, who looked arrogant and haughty."Judging from your expression, it looks like you don't know anything about what your wife has done wrong. Come, I'll tell you everything." Aaron approached the couple and didn't care about the company's CEO, who had been staring

    Joe and Jesslyn were silent. Neither of them spoke, and both of them simultaneously kept their mouths shut as they walked towards the company's exit.At this point, Joe was still in complete trust in his wife. He was sure that Jesslyn was not guilty at all.Meanwhile, Jesslyn, who was slandered, her expression looked tangled because her brain had been thinking and looking for a way out of the problems that were currently happening to her."Wow, this couple turned out to be very compact. They were fired at the same time." Rocky made a gesture of covering his mouth with one hand as if to show that he didn't mean it."They're very compatible and destined to be a match. That's why they were always together until they left the company simultaneously." Rizky said. "By the way, you don't need to act like someone who doesn't know anything, Rocky. You should have guessed that both would be fired from this company sooner or later, especially after their dealings with Mr. Oliver."Rizky and Rocky

    Joe squeezed his hair roughly after being put into the jail cell. He stared outside, where the police were busy on duty."What should I do now? How do I get out of this place?" Joe muttered in frustration.***Jesslyn stared at her husband's departure bitterly. She was at a loss for what to do, especially now that she didn't have much money to guarantee her husband's freedom.With sluggish steps, Jesslyn returned to the apartment and picked up her charging cell phone on the table."Hello, Mom. How are you?" Jesslyn opened the conversation. She was forced to call her mom for help."What's wrong? It's unusual for you to call your mom. Are you in trouble right now?" Rosetta replied sarcastically. From her daughter's tone, she knew that the other person was currently in big trouble. She could deduce that just by hearing her daughter's style, which sounded listless and desperate."Mmmm," Jesslyn was at a loss for what to say. She knew what her mother's character was like, so she could guess

    Jonathan accelerated his footsteps towards the place his father had indicated. His heart was beating so fast it was hard for him to hold back his anger towards the man who had deceived him. "Yesterday, you got away because I was still kind to you, Mark. But not this time. I will make you feel what is called hell on earth!" Jonathan was determined. With one step left to the warehouse where his captive was kept, Jonathan tried to control himself. He inhaled and exhaled many times to keep his emotions and expressions under control, so Mark would have no opportunity to fight him later. "Wow, didn't I see it wrong? The person I thought had gone to the other side of the world is still loyal to this country," Jonathan chuckled. Not forgetting, he showed a cruel grin to intimidate his opponent. Mark, who Jonathan had already tortured, was naturally very scared now. If he were free from the shackles that bound him at the moment, he would indeed run as far away from the man as possible. "W

    Joe visits Oddie after not seeing the man for a long time. The relationship between the two of them was quite good, especially after Sarah died and Oddie decided to consider Jesslyn as his daughter. And now, Joe's purpose for coming to see Oddie was to discuss what was happening at Skyland Company. He wanted to get some advice that might help him to overcome the problems that were happening, especially since the man was quite an influential person and had a lot of experience. "So, the news about SkyLand Company going downhill is true?" Oddie asked. He, whose condition had improved, took a sip of tea served by one of the servants in his house. "Yes, Mr. Oddie. I would like to hear your opinion on the problems that SkyLand Company is facing. Moreover, you are one of the investors in my company, so you might be able to give some thoughts from your perspective as an investor," Joe pleaded. "Call me dad, Joe. Aren't we family now?

After a long time of authorizing Cristine to take care of the company, Joe finally sat down in his work chair as he began his task of solving the many problems that had befallen Skyland Company lately. "What about the investors who have withdrawn their funds, Cristine? Are they willing to come back and entrust their money to SkyLand Company after I start working again?" Joe asked Cristine who was handing over some important files that required the man's signature. "No, Mr. Joe." Cristine took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly to ease the tightness attacking her chest. "I've investigated everything, Mr. Joe. And there seems to be a reason why they withdrew the investment." Hearing the explanation from his secretary, Joe looked interested. He stopped what he was doing for a moment, then looked at Cristine and gave her the code to explain further."When you handed over the main task to me to lead SkyLan

    Aaron and Esther left Zack who was still faithful to shouting incoherently, berating and insulting Aaron so that the man would come back and deal with his current behavior. Unfortunately, Aaron was not provoked at all. He didn't care about Zack's screams, and neither did Esther. After coming out of the room that held Zack, Esther immediately dropped her body onto the sofa located not far away. She looked tired. "It turns out that dealing with someone like Zack is tiring too, huh? I didn't expect him to still be able to fight back when he's in such a tight spot." Esther chuckled, as if she had forgotten what Zack had done to her earlier. "Zack is like that. Why do you think Joe chose to kick him out of the house instead of forgiving him?" Aaron narrowed his eyes, then snapped his fingers as Esther looked back at him with furrowed brows. "Yep, Zack is the type of person who doesn't know himself. That's why, Joe would rather let him go than have to live with him for the rest of his l

    Joe took a deep breath, he asked Cristine to go home first and he would think about what he would do next. Ben, who was visiting his daughter at the time, immediately approached Joe and patted him on the shoulder. "You can focus on your work again, Joe. As for Jesslyn, let me take care of her. When she regains consciousness, then I'll let you know." "But, Dad?" Joe wanted to argue. He wanted to be by his wife's side at all times. He doesn't want that when she woke up, he wouldn't be by her side. Joe knew that Jesslyn would be devastated to learn that their future child had died in her womb, and he wanted to be by her side to give her encouragement and strength. "There's no refusal, Joe. This is all for the good of everyone." Ben tried to open Joe's mind. "Think about it, if your company were to go downhill, you would have to cut back on employees, which would affect the families of those employees because the head of their family would no longer have a job. In addition, your finan

    "We're sorry, your future child cannot be saved. Mrs. Jesslyn's condition is also still not improving, she is still in a critical condition and will have to be admitted into the ICU after this. This is because she was brought to the hospital too late, and the patient has already lost a lot of blood." The doctor's explanation was like a sledgehammer hitting Joe's heart. He sat down, then covered his face. Not long after, there was a numb voice. The man was crying, because he had to get such a painful fact when his life was already on top. Joe didn't expect that this painful thing could happen to him. And this time he couldn't do anything but wait for his wife's condition to improve. "Joe." Rosetta approached her son-in-law and put her hand on his shoulder as a form of transferring strength and encouragement.Honestly, in the deepest corner of her heart, Rosetta felt very guilty for having to lie about the real reason for Jesslyn's fall. However, she was forced to do this so that Zac

    Rosetta rushed over to her daughter who had fallen and was moaning in pain. With shaky steps from shock, she struggled to help Jesslyn up. "Argh! It hurts!" Jesslyn cried out, her breathing labored and her face starting to turn pale. Rosetta was getting more and more worried and scared when she saw the condition that befell her daughter, her mind was too raging that she couldn't think clearly to find another way out so that her daughter could be saved immediately. Meanwhile, Zack, who didn't know that the impulse he was making had a very bad impact, immediately trembled. Instead of helping his sister, Zack pulled his mother and threatened the woman who had given birth to him. "Mommy, don't tell anyone what happened today! If you dare to do that, then I will act recklessly!" After saying that, Zack quickly left Rosetta who was rooted to the spot. The middle-aged woman's mind was raging, and her consciousness seemed to return after hearing Jesslyn moan for the last time before col

    "Yes, Mommy was expelled by Grandpa from the house after the resistance she put up. I'm actually confused as to why Mommy even fought back, even though from the stories of some of the bodyguards, since the beginning of Mommy's punishment she doesn't dare to fight Grandpa. Even facing or looking into Grandpa's eyes, Mommy doesn't dare." Jonathan explained. "Then, where did Aunty Quina go? Does she have somewhere to sleep tonight?" Joe asked, wanting to extract more information from his cousin. "I don't know because I didn't have time to ask Mommy either. Mommy chose to leave after being kicked out and she doesn't say anything either. But, I think Mommy must have somewhere to go whether it's a hotel or an inn to sleep tonight. Moreover, Grandpa also gave her money before Mommy." "So, that means aunty Quina didn't leave empty-handed, right?" Joe asked again, which was immediately greeted with a nod by Jonathan. "But why did Aunty prefer to go together with Aaron instead of looking fo

    Quina was sitting restlessly at the front of the cafe near her house that provided a place to relax for customers who wanted to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. "Where's Aaron? What took him so long?" Quina chuckled in annoyance. Every now and then she took a sip of the coffee she had ordered in order to sit in that part of the cafe. After taking a sip of the coffee, Quina's face looked different. Her brow furrowed, and her eyes narrowed. "What is this coffee? It doesn't taste very good." Quina looked disgustedly at the coffee, then pushed the glass away from her body. "It turns out that I was right in my assumption that the food and drinks usually consumed by the lower middle class are very bad. I feel like spitting out the coffee I just drank." Quina said quite loudly, and her words provoked various reactions from the people around her, especially the visitors who were mostly students. Those who heard the inappropriate sentence immediately booed Quina openly and it made her even mo
