But Dami said he never thought about divorcing you.
Claudy, women always have to endure some grievances in marriage.
You can’t expect every couple to be as loving as your father and me.
After all, Dami’s status is what it is.
“Do you know? Your grandfather is fine now. I didn’t ask, but I suspect it was Dami who helped.
“Listen to your mother, go back with Dami and live your life well.”
Listening to her mother, Claudine felt nothing but a deep sense of helplessness.
She wanted to tell her mother that she had never envied her parents‘ relationship, and even wanted to risk everything and tell her what her father had done.
But reason told her that her mother couldn’t handle that kind of shock.
“Mom, it wasn’t Damian who helped with Grandpa’s situation. I found a professor who was close to Grandpa and asked them for help!”
But Bridgette spoke up.
“They only did it because you’re Damian’s wife!”
Claudine couldn’t understand why her mother believed she needed to rely on Damian to have the ability to save her grandfather.
In Adriana’s eyes, she was a student with limitless potential; to those collectors, she was a star auctioneer who could bring them immense value. Yet, in her mother’s eyes, she was nothing more than a woman who could only depend on her husband.
“Mom, I don’t need to rely on anyone! I have the ability myself, I…”
Before Claudine could finish, Bridgette interrupted her.
“Why are you always so disobedient!”
Bridgette was so anxious that her voice changed.
Her eyes were red as she looked at her daughter.
“Claudy, after what happened to your grandfather this time, I’ve realized something: a woman must have someone to rely on!

Your father and your grandfather are my support, and Damian and your father are yours!
“I’m telling you, you must go back with Damian tonight, or else…”
Bridgette glanced around, “Or I’ll pull out my IV!”
Claudine looked at her unreasonable mother and sighed deeply in her heart.
“She thought, fine, I’ll just go back tonight.
She would talk things through with Damian and get the procedures done as soon as possible.
“Fine. I’ll listen to you. I’ll go back with him!”
Seeing her daughter agree, Bridgette immediately stopped making a fuss.
“That’s right, listen to your mother and get along well with Dami!
“You two are husband and wife, just talk things out. Quarrels between couples are nothing, there’s nothing you can’t get through!”
As she spoke, she took a small box from under the bed and placed it in Claudine’s hand.
“What’s this?”
Claudine asked.
Bridgette looked mysterious.
“I specially asked someone to buy it. It’s something good to help warm up your relationship!”
Claudine realized what was inside the box and couldn’t help but feel both amused and exasperated.
“Mom, you!”
“Oh, just go, go! Hurry back and get some rest.
“Remember what I said, get along well with Dami!”
Claudine left the hospital room and sighed as she looked at the box in her hand.
Her mother really was something else…
Claudine looked around but couldn’t find a trash can in the corridor.
“Forget it, I’ll throw it away later.
She looked up and saw Damian standing at the end of the corridor, right next to a trash can.
Claudine walked over, ready to throw the box away.
Damian heard the sound and turned to see Claudine walking toward him.

The window was open, and a gentle breeze drifted in, lifting the loose strands of hair around her ears.
The evening dress hugged her waist perfectly, and as she walked, her long legs appeared and disappeared, exuding a certain charm.
Damian felt a flutter in his heart, his throat moving involuntarily.
When he came back to his senses and realized what he had just been thinking, he thought he must be crazy–since when did he have such impulses toward his own wife?
It seemed his body had been neglected for too long.
Claudine walked to the trash can, bent down slightly, and was about to throw the box in.
Damian reached out his long arm and took the box directly from her.
“What’s this?”
With a cigarette between his lips, he freed his other hand and was about to open the box.
“Give it back to me!”
Claudine immediately tried to snatch the box back.
If Damian saw what was inside, she wouldn’t be able to explain herself no matter what she said.
She instinctively stood on tiptoe to grab it, but compared to Damian’s height and long legs, she was no match.
Seeing Claudine like this only made Damian more curious about the contents of the box.
He raised the box high, ready to open it.
“Stop it!”
