Trouble in Paradise by Three Way

Chapter 0178 I had heard such cruel words often and had slowly grown immune to them. I clenched my hands tightly into fists and forced myself to calm down.

"Although you aren't my biological mother, I've treated you like my own mother for four years- Before I could finish speaking, Frances interruptedand said sharply, "I treated you well back then as I wanted you to treat Claudia well and take care of her. But since you can't be a good sister-in-law to Claudia, you might as well not be Nicholas' wife anymore." I sneered and said, "Then who do you want his wife to be? Jasmine?" "As if she's worthy. She's just a dog the Hawk family is raising. She's nothing more than a surrogate tool!" Frances' gaze was filled with disdain.

Jasmine had still been her so-called "friend's daughter" last night, but today, she was just "a dog." I wanted to mock her, but then again, what right did I have to mock someone? Just like her, I also used to be Frances' "precious daughter-in-law", but now my husband and my mother-in-law both hated me. I was just an unwanted being.

Having met Jasmine before, I knew that she was beautiful, sexy, and very self-centered, just like many people who had cback from abroad. "Does she know you're using her?" "Even her life belongs to the Hawk family. What's so wrong with us using her womb once?" Frances said nonchalantly. She displayed the arrogance and disdain the upper class typically had for the lower class perfectly.

She softened her tone and said, "Don't blme for doing this. You're the one who can't have children. Instead of focusing on your responsibility as Nicholas' wife, you insisted on hav a job. "Not only did you fail to build a successful career, you even caused a huge mess of things." "Since that's the case, there's nothing more forto say to you. Whether Nicholas and I go our separate ways or stay together, we will solve it on our own. There's no need for you to worry about that." Frances snorted and said, "Did you think Nick would still be willing to meet with you?" With a wave of her hands, the group of bodyguards behind her immediately surrounded me.

I didn't know why Frances askedthat. But now, she seemed to be the one in charge within the Hawk family. The bodyguards did not hold back as they basically threwout on the streets. Everything happened so suddenly.

I could see my reflection through a puddle of water by the side of the road. I looked like a dog who had just been abandoned by his owner. Claudia had also just called Jasmine a dog that Nicholas had picked up.

I called Yasmine and asked her to pickup. Yasmine was very casual about the situation. She stood by her black car, opened the door for me, gavea small gentlemen's bow, and gestured forto get in. %C 'Do you want to stay at my place?" Inexplicably, her gesture madethink of Nicholas, who was currently lying on the surgery table.

My memories began to overlap with Yasmine's g ure. One of them had stunnedand caused my heart to pound rapidly, while the other seemed to have opened the wounds in my heart, leavingint pain.

I smiled as tears gathered in my eyes. "Where did you learn such a fancy move?" Back then, I would have definitely said that her posture had paled in comparison to Nicholas's. But now, I didn't even dare to say his name.

I hated the way my relationship with Nicholas had been dragging things on ambiguously. Now that his family was also against our marriage, I would not have to play the villain anymore. Naturally, there were plenty of people who were hoping to see us go our separate ways.

I got up and got in her car. While she made her way to the driver's seat, I quickly wiped away the tears in my eyes. She started the engine, but Yasmine was in no hurry to start driving.

She placed her hands on the steering wheel and turned to look at me. She sighed and said, "You've already received the money for Jones Corporation. I've also taken control of the law firm, while you managed to win your lawsuit. "Whether you're famous on social media for something good or bad, it doesn't matter. At the end of the day, you're still the true winner! "So, what do you plan on doing next? I'll support you no matter what you want to do!" Plans? What plans could I possibly have?

Although I won the lawsuit, I had lost my reason for getting my revenge I felt lost and confused. Not only did Nicholas ruin my plans, but he also turned my life upside down.

"Since you're now the owner of Jay Caldwell & Co., I won't resign.

om anymore. I'm more than willing to work for you! You can choose scases that are suitable for me. I want to earn more money!" I touched my cheeks and chuckled lightly. My nonchalant attitude caused Yasmine to grit her teeth in frustration.

"Ari, the law firm is worth my entire life. If you needfor anything, I'm more than willing to help you stab those two bastards!"

I laughed heartily and said, "If you do plan on stabbing them, make Sure to it make it seem like you did it in self-defense. I don't want to see you ending up in jail." I didn't tell her that there weren't just two bastards-there were three. of them now.
