Chapter 215 Get a Divorce, Jo
“It’s useless… Jesse mumbled. “Dexter wants to ruin me.”
She even thought he had feelings for her after she was scalded.
The light had dawned. He had always treated her like a pawn, after all. He had used her to agitate other people and curry favor with that woman.
She had carried out her illegal behavior secretly. She wouldn’t be investigated if she didn’t leave tracks, but everything had happened so suddenly. There was no prior indication at all. Someone must have added fuel to the fire behind the scenes.
Not many men in Wavery had such authority as Dexter did. And the person she had offended was none other than Dexter.
Women always had accurate intuitions. It was painful for her to come to a conclusion.
Josie meant something to him.
It was almost the end of the year. Josie had settled virtually everything on her hands and wasn’t as busy anymore, so she started going to the hospital more frequently.
Her dad still hadn’t moved.
Josie sat in front of his hospital bed, and Matthew looked concerned.
“Jo, don’t worry so much. At least Mr. Warren’s vital signs are still stable.
“How can I not worry?” Josie felt defeated. “Once the new year starts, it’ll be his fourth year like this. What should I do if he doesn’t wake up?”
Matthew stood behind her and unconsciously reached his hand out. He wanted to pat her head and console her, but he didn’t dare do it in the end.
“Matt.” Josie suddenly thought of something. She turned to look at him. “Can I take my dad home for a while during New Year’s?”
Matthew was surprised. “Home? You can if you ensure that his medical equipment is sorted out, but as far as I know, your house…”
He wanted to say something but stopped. Ordinary families couldn’t afford the expensive hospitalization. fees, so most would look after the patient at home. Josie’s family couldn’t do so, so she had kept her dad at the hospital for the past few years.
“I can. I can make arrangements.” Josie decided. “Is that alright, Matt?”
Matthew sized up her expression and guessed something. His lips curved disappointedly. “If you can do it, the hospital will naturally approve.”
“That’s great. I want to spend New Year’s with Dad this year.” Josie sounded sad. She was already prepared.
If her dad didn’t have much time left, spending New Year’s together could make up for her regrets.
It was silent for a moment. Josie took her cell phone from her bag and slowly typed but deleted everything. She was at a loss.
Matthew saw it, and his gaze was cold. He asked softly, “Do you need to ask for his permission?”
Josie was startled. She smiled bitterly. “That’s how things are when I depend on him.”
Matthew was pained. “Get a divorce, Jo. I’m a doctor. I can help you fulfill any of your requests.”
Josie was taken aback. She didn’t know what to say momentarily when faced with his burning gaze. She said. “Matt, I can’t get a divorce for now.”
She had been more energetic when she came to the hospital these days, and Matthew had noticed something. He questioned her, “Do you not want to divorce him, or does he not want it?”
Josie’s blood froze, and she didn’t know how to explain it. “It’s too complicated between us. I can’t get divorced for now.”
Matthew’s expression froze. After a moment, he laughed bitterly. “… It may not be entirely bad. You can do anything you want as long as you can protect yourself. Anything you want.”
He didn’t know if he was consoling himself or Josie.
