Mason Monroe shook his head, his expression complicated.
He didn’t dare admit that before he asked for the money, Coralie Hughes’s emotions were actually quite stable, apart from still being very disgusted with him.
It was only after he brought up the idea of borrowing money that Coralie went crazy again, and the doctor had no choice but to give her a sedative.
Under Evan Hughes’s gaze, Mason swallowed and spoke up sowhat guiltily, "Sa as before. When I went, the doctor had given her a sedative."
"Hmm." Evan Hughes’s face darkened for a few seconds, then he knocked on the table in front of him and said, "Sit down, I have sothing to say to you."
Mason Monroe beca quite nervous.
Could it be that Evan Hughes knew he had accidentally provoked Coralie again?
He saw Evan Hughes snap his fingers, and the Hughes family butler placed a manila envelope on the table.
Evan Hughes pushed the manila envelope in front of Mason Monroe and said, "Take a look."
Mason opened it, filled with trepidation, and when he saw the contents, his face imdiately turned pale, his lips completely devoid of color.
Inside was none other than divorce papers.
In addition to the divorce papers, there was also a check. He didn’t look at how much it was for, but he didn’t want the money, he wanted Coralie!
"Dad!" Mason Monroe hurriedly asked, "Did I do sothing wrong? Tell , I’ll definitely change!"
Evan Hughes shook his head expressionlessly, "You didn’t do anything wrong. You’re fine. It’s just that you and I both know that Coralie doesn’t love you. At that ti, I had you two get married out of sheer necessity. Now, it’s ti to set things right."
Evan Hughes realized that over this period, compared to saving face, his daughter’s well-being was more important.
Coralie ended up going to a ntal hospital largely because of her marriage to Mason Monroe.
She was his only child, and he wanted his daughter to return to normal. The best way was for her to divorce Mason Monroe.
In any case, the marriage had already happened, and the guests who ca to the birthday party couldn’t say anything about it. So, it’s ti for the divorce.
"No..." Mason Monroe shook his head like crazy, standing up and grabbing Evan Hughes’s hand, "Dad, I promised you, I’d take care of Coralie for life, even if she stays ill for life, I’m willing to stick by her. I really love her, please don’t tear us apart!"
Evan Hughes extracted his hand from Mason’s grip, frowning tightly, "Don’t you understand? Why is Coralie ill? Because she had to marry you! You say don’t tear you apart—when two people in love are forced apart, that’s tearing apart. She doesn’t even like you, so where’s the tearing apart?"
Mason Monroe’s lips trembled, "If I lose her, I’ll go insane too!"
Evan Hughes was indifferent to whether Mason Monroe went insane or not, saying lightly, "You’re a big man. How could you go insane over sothing so trivial? Don’t worry, n are always stronger than they think."
Mason Monroe could see Evan Hughes’s determination, and gritting his teeth, he said, "But after I separate from Coralie, how will you explain to others? We just got married a few days ago and now getting a divorce—won’t outsiders talk? Don’t you care about your face? Don’t you care about the Hughes family’s honor?"
Evan Hughes knitted his brows even tighter.
At his position, who didn’t care about saving face?
But compared to saving face, isn’t family more important?
Evan Hughes shook his head and said, "You don’t need to say any more. No matter what outsiders say, we know it was a misunderstanding. Coralie drank too much and ended up with you. Isn’t it normal in your generation to have one-night stands? People will soon forget. Maybe they’ve already forgotten, and no one will care so much about other people’s family matters."
