Chapter 601
Kirk had long ago expected that Jude wouldn’t approve. He turned to look at Jude and asked, “Why don’t you approve, Uncle Jude?”
Jude also noticed how exaggerated his reaction was. He explained, “I… What I mean to say is that it might be a little too hasty to divorce now.
“I think you should give Daphne another chance. Get to the bottom of what’s going on first. It would be bad if you’re accusing her of this wrongly.”
“Uncle Jude, we caught her in the act. What else is there to explain?”
Jude looked over at Daphne. He really hated her right then. He despised her for staying there like
a brick, not even knowing how to defend herself.
There was no way Jude could allow Daphne and Kirk to get divorced.
Since Kirk was still married now, he couldn’t openly pursue Caroline. But once he was divorced, he could use any methods he wanted to force Caroline to divorce her husband.
When the time came, Eddy would have no chance of winning.
Jude didn’t want the regrets of the past to play out in the future.
“Maybe Daphne was entrapped. I think it’s better to ask her about this properly first.”
Kirk replied, “Even so, her infidelity is a fact. You said just now, Uncle Jude, that this is my private
matter and should be handed to me to deal with. I don’t care what excuses one may have. Cheating
is cheating!”
Gripping his walking stick tightly, Jude said, “So you must divorce, is that it?”
“Yes.” Kirk’s voice was steely.
Jude’s body was trembling from his rage. He looked at Daphne, who stayed on the ground without
speaking. His fury burned hotter.
“Don’t you have anything to say about this?”
Daphne had already been terrified into silence long before this. There was no way she could say
anything now.
Having received no answer even after a long time, Jude looked away in disappointment. He held back the anger he felt and said to Kirk, “Have them all leave. I have something to say to you”
Kirk waved a hand. With that, Charles led everyone outside, including Daphne and the other man
A long time after the door was closed, Jude finally managed to dispel his anger.
“Kirk, I would like to have an honest chat with you”
Kirk sat opposite Jude and said, “Please speak your mind, Uncle Jude.”
“I know why you want to get divorced. I also know that you definitely have the capability of making Carrie get divorced and get together with you afterward.”
“Do you think I’m a tyrant, Uncle Jude?”
Jude waved a hand. “I’m well aware of your capabilities. With how things are now, I’m not afraid of any sort of embarrassment.”
Kirk raised an eyebrow high as Jude thought about his words,
After a long while, Jude broke the silence.
“I’m determined to have Caroline as my granddaughter–in–law. I think you know that quite clearly. As for why
Jude was quiet for a long moment before speaking again. “I’ll tell you why today.” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Jude started, “It all began more than 50 years ago, before your father and I were on the outs. ”
Jude talked about what had happened more than half a century ago. Back then, he and Ivan
weren’t the old men they were today. They had been full of youth and vigor.
The big four families hadn’t schemed and competed with each other as they did now. The relationship between the families had been exceptionally good, especially between the Morrison.
and Evans families.
Back then, the Morrison brothers and the heir to the Evans family, Benjamin Evans, had been
great friends. They had even gone to the same university together.
But the pleasantness between them hadn’t lasted forever.
