Chapter 79
Chapter 79
Josephine did not go to work today without a proper reason, so she had to call Liliana to ask for her help to apply for leave.
When she returned to the bedroom, she was startled the moment she picked up her phone and turned it on.
There were more than 30 missed calls and a series of messages shown on her phone, all of which were from Liliana without exception.
In the latest message, it read: [Stupid Josephine, Idiot Josephine. What happened to you? Why didn’t you answer my call and reply to my messages? Did you want to make me anxious to death? I’m telling you. If you don’t get back to me, I will rush to the Levine mansion immediately.]
Seeing the message, Josephine smiled.
She called Liliana back quickly and told her that she was fine. She also asked the other for her help to apply for her leave.
Hearing that Josephine was fine, the worries in Liliana’s mind were relieved. Liliana then told the other that she had already helped her apply for the leave, informing her to rest at home at ease.
Since the leave was taken, Josephine rested at home in peace and did not go anywhere.
In the evening, Josephine, who was reading, noticed that the phone she had put aside rang. She picked it up and saw that the call was from Yennefer. She immediately smiled happily and answered her phone. “Aunt Yennefer, are you back?”
“Josie…” Yennefer’s voice choked.
Hearing the voice, Josephine’s heart twisted with anxiety. “Aunt Yennefer, what happened? Where are you now?”
She had never seen Yennefer cry ever since she was a child, except when her family passed away.
Over the years, Yennefer had always been very tough, no matter what happened.
“I’m at home.” Yennefer’s voice was low.
Josephine could also hear Jonathan’s begging voice from the other line on the phone.
Josephine probably guessed something and said anxiously, “Aunt Yennefer, don’t panic. I’ll come to see you right away.”
Soon, Josephine arrived at the Zimmerman residence and slapped the door hard.
Jonathan saw her and said nervously, “Josie, please help me persuade Yennefer. I know I was really wrong. Please persuade her to forgive me, okay?”
Josephine did not even glance at the shameless man. She walked away directly from his side and headed toward the bedroom.
She knocked on the door and said, “Aunt Yennefer, it’s me. Open the door and let me in,”
Hearing the voice, Yennefer wiped off the tears from the corner of her eyes and opened the door.
As soon as Josephine entered, she hugged Yennefer. “Aunt Yennefer, I’ll back you up if anything happens.”
It was Yennefer who used to take care of her, so she would take care of her aunt in the future.
“Josie…” The grievances that had been suppressed for too long within Yennefer’s mind burst out at this moment.
The tears which Yennefer tried hard not to let fall had slipped down her face again.
She had devoted herself to the family. No matter how much Samantha made things difficult for her, she did not complain even once.
However, the result she gained in return was a man’s ruthless betrayal.
Yesterday, Jonathan still contacted her and said he missed her very much.
He also promised again and again that he would never get close to any woman in the future.
For the sake of their relationship of so many years, Yennefer chose to believe him one more time.
Therefore, she wanted to give him a surprise and came back to see him after finishing her work in advance..
However, to her surprise, she saw Jonathan’s secretary, Winnie, sitting next to him as soon as she entered the door, and Jonathan was even stuffing a peeled orange into the girl’s mouth.
They looked like a couple in passionate love, which was blinding to the eyes.
Seeing this scene, Yennefer felt like her heart was beaten mercilessly, and she felt pain to the point that it made her almost suffocate.
After a while, her face darkened, and her eyes were filled with anger.
She sneered, “Jonathan, how dare you! You kept telling me yesterday that you loved me on the phone but then proceeded to bring someone home today.”
Jonathan panicked the moment he saw Yennefer come back. He explained quickly, “Yenny, don’t get the wrong idea. Winnie is just here to deliver documents to me.”
“Ha!” Yennefer sneered again.

She just laughed shortly with endless sarcasm. “Delivering documents to you? Do you really think I’m blind?”
Just now, she saw that the orange in Jonathan’s hand was about to be fed into the woman’s mouth.
“Yenny, really, please believe me. I love you so much. How could I possibly do something wrong to you?”
Jonathan was still trying to defend himself at this time.
He really loved Yennefer and did not want to lose her.
In fact, after being recorded by Josephine the day before yesterday, he had prepared for the worst.
However, he did not receive a call from Yennefer while waiting for the whole night. He felt relieved of that.
He thought that Josephine probably did not want to make Yennefer sad, so she did not tell the latter what happened that day.
Moreover, Yennefer would only be back in two days, so he brought Winnie back to the house.
As he spoke, he blinked at Winnie and motioned for her to leave first.
Winnie was obviously reluctant to do so, but she had no choice but to leave.
Before leaving, she also took a look at Yennefer.
Seeing Winnie leave, Samantha, who was standing aside, shifted the blame to Yennefer again, and her tone was full of dissatisfaction with the latter.
She said, “Yennefer, what are you trying to do, giving us that attitude as soon as you come back? You can’t even give birth to a child yourself, and now you won’t allow Jonathan to find someone else to give birth to one. Who do you think you are!”
“Mom, stop it.” Jonathan stopped Samantha from talking further.
“Why should I stop?” For so many years, Samantha’s wish for a grandchild could not be fulfilled, and she had long disliked Yennefer for that.
She thought, “If not for my son’s unwillingness to divorce this woman, I would have been a grandmother sooner.”
Samantha did not care what Jonathan did to stop her. She still wanted to say it out loud. “Did I say it wrong?”
Usually, Samantha’s words were already unpleasant, so she did not care about her tone this time either.
She just wanted Yennefer and Jonathan to get divorced.
There was no way for the Zimmerman family to accept a woman who could not bear children.
Hearing this, Yennefer blew up in rage completely.
Her delicate face showed a bone–chilling sneer. “Nice try, Jonathan. You have already found a woman who can have a baby for you. Well then, let’s divorce. I’ll give up the position as your wife to her.”
Yennefer glared at Jonathan fiercely when she said that, as if she was going to kill Jonathan with her gaze.
“No, I’m not getting a divorce!” Jonathan panicked when he heard Yennefer say again that they were going to get divorced.
The previous time she talked about divorce, it took him a lot of effort to comfort her and make her dismiss the idea.
“Jonathan, divorce her.” Seeing Jonathan unwilling to leave his wife, Samantha was so angry that she wanted to give him some slaps on the face. “I think Winnie is good for you. She is good–looking and even younger than certain people. She can have children for you too.”
Hearing the words, Yennefer was almost unable to stand steadily, and her heart broke down to the extreme.
Her youth had been wasted for nothing for several years.
Her gaze was as cold as ice as she glanced at Samantha. She sneered, “It’s not only my job to give birth to a baby. I have done a checkup, and there is nothing wrong with my body.”
Samantha fumed after hearing that and looked at Yennefer coldly. “What are you trying to say? You think it’s Jonathan’s problem?”
She added, “Let me tell you. My son is normal. The one who can’t give birth is you.”
“In that case, why didn’t he go for a checkup?” Yennefer knew that her marriage with Jonathan had reached a point where it could not be held on to
anymore.
