Chapter 47: Divorce Her

Not only was Carlotta looking down on Layla, but she was also jeering Taylor for his lameness.

Despite her obvious mockery, Layla noticed that the man stayed calm and collected.

Elegantly slicing a piece of steak, he put it into his mouth and chewed leisurely. Only after that did he look up at Carlotta and reply, "She is my wife, and that is none of your concern. I'm willing to support her studies simply because I am not so shallow as to deny her of her potential by judging her past. Also... my condition doesn't mean I'm as cowardly as you think I am. I don't need her to quit school and take care of me. When I moved out previously, I managed to live by myself just fine, didn't I?"

At the mention of this, Jerome's eyes were full of guilt. 

Back then, Taylor had fallen into depression after the car accident. However, Jerome wasn't there for him when the former needed him most. From then on, he had always felt regretful.
