"Don’t attend any activities for the next few days," Jared Quinn said, standing behind lody Thorne.
lody Thorne instinctively stepped away when she heard his voice. "I’m leaving first."
"lody," Jared’s large hand gripped her arm, refusing to let go. These days he was nearly driven insane by the tornt.
He never knew when his illness would relapse, so he dared not easily appear by her side.
"What? Holding onto soone you dislike, Mr. Quinn, are you slapping your own face hard?" lody turned around expressionless, "The butler should have given you the divorce papers, right? Perfect, you dislike , and I dislike you. Let’s part ways cleanly."
Jared’s handso brows furrowed fiercely. "You know very well I said that to protect you."
For her, he could risk his life multiple tis, how could he possibly hate her?
"So what?" lody looked at him, "Are you looking to slap your own face now? Want to forgive you?"
Jared embraced her with determination, "So you can’t turn your face against , nor throw divorce papers at . I will control the illness soon and bring you and Timmy back."
"But I don’t want to go back," lody pushed him away defiantly, "I need an obedient husband, but unfortunately, you are not obedient."
Leon Rivers "..."
Harold Chapman "..."
Impressive, sis-in-law.
"How do you want to be obedient? Hmm?" Jared’s big hand pinched her little face.
Beside them, Leon Rivers cleared his throat twice and couldn’t resist speaking, "I have a very good idea. I’ll move into the villa with you both in the future, bring back the previous doctors who treated the Quinn family, and sis-in-law can control him when Jared has an episode, which can also accelerate his recovery. Have you noticed that every ti Jared has an episode, as long as sis-in-law is there, it gets under control?"
As soon as Leon finished speaking, Jared shot him a glare, clearly showing his disapproval.
"I an in a few days. After all, that person hasn’t agreed to help us yet. I’ve already found out his whereabouts and stated our intentions, but he directly avoided us."
"Where is he?" lody finally responded.
"In a remote place."
The car stopped, lody got out and looked around. Besides the dicinal herbs grown here, everything seed desolate.
A middle-aged man, between forty and fifty, sat outside the only house, dressed in what looked like rug clothes.
"Jared, that person used to be your attending doctor. Is this how the Quinn family treats people?" lody asked in confusion, this appeared truly miserable.
"Every doctor in the Quinn family, regardless of whether they cure the illness, receives a ten million advance paynt," Jared said,
"With so much, why is he still like this?"
With that money, becoming a modestly wealthy businessman should be possible, right?
"I don’t know."
The man turned around at the sound of footsteps, his face changed dramatically when he saw Jared leading the group. "What are you doing here? You’re not welco here!"
"We’re here to understand the past episodes experienced by every previous mber of the Quinn family," lody said. "No matter your hostility towards us, you should at least give us the old dical records. Keeping them yourself makes us think you harbor ill intentions towards the Quinn family."
The man’s face shifted rapidly, "No matter what you say, I tell you there’s nothing, there’s nothing. If you know what’s good for you, leave now."
