Jason had classes in the daytime and stayed in the school apartment during evenings. Sometimes he would just sit there for the whole night.
He had been feeling tired both physically and mentally recently, so he no longer went to the company anymore.
He was not the only son. If he didn't go to work, someone else would take over things.
Fu Group wouldn't go bankrupt just because he was absent for a week.
Ambitions differ from person to person. Jessica's happened to be landing great achievements, but she unfortunately lacked the ability to pursue them. So she passed the torch to her husband and made her own ambitions his.
However, Jason loved the pleasure of an ordinary life.
All he wanted was to hold his wife in his arms for a lifetime. And if they would be blessed with children in the future, it would be another great joy in his life. Even if they remained childless, he would be content as long as he had his wife.
But she didn't share his outlook.
Jessica had always hoped for Jason to stand at the pinnacle of society and attain a position of universal attention. Only then could he stand beside her.
She was, after all, from the prominent Shi family, a truly rich and powerful family.
"Isn't that Professor Fu from the school of literature?" Passing students began to whisper among themselves. They threw
them? How can you be so spineless?"
It was just as Jason had thought. He lowered his eyes and said nothing further. The setting sun cast its last rays over them, but he felt no warmth. If anything, he felt even colder.
Chester had been watching them from the distance, and the entire time all he could see was his aunt continuously pushing his uncle farther and farther away.
He was shaken out of his reverie by another outburst from his aunt.
"Jason, do you want all my friends to laugh at me? They would say that I married an unknown university professor. They would think that I lack taste and would mock me behind my back."
Jason scowled, and his ice cold fingertips twitched.
When he remained silent, Jessica took it as his acquiescence. She steeled her voice as she threw an ultimatum at her husband.
"Make a choice, Jason. Do you want to be with me, or do you want to be a university teacher? If you choose me, then you'd better quit your profession right this instant, pack your things, return to your office in Fu Group, do your job as general manager, and achieve great heights in the business world. If you choose to keep teaching..."
Jessica paused for effect, then before dealing the final blow through gritted teeth. "Then we're getting divorce."
Divorce?
Jason looked up
at his wife in disbelief.
