‘God, has he even listened to himself? The second I get back, he’s ordering me around like I’m his assistant–and his demands are completely unreasonable,‘ Stanley thought. He clenched his fist, itching to throw a punch at Jeffrey.
“Look, I can’t guarantee she’ll settle for exactly 200 thousand dollars,” Stanley said bluntly. “Amelia’s surgery is going to run at least 150 thousand. If you only offer 200 thousand, don’t you think she’ll suspect this is all your doing?”
“She won’t,” Jeffrey replied flatly.
Stanley was confused.
Jeffrey lifted his eyelids slightly. “I’m only giving two hundred grand–not a penny more.”
“Seriously, what is going on in your head?” Stanley shook his head. “First, you were obsessed with her. Now you’re making her life hell. I’m starting to think you’ve got some kind of split personality.”
“She brought up divorce,” Jeffrey said coolly. “I’m just giving her a taste of what life is like without my support. Seems fair.”
“Divorce?” Stanley almost choked.
Even though he’d been overseas the past few years, he’d seen how inseparable Jeffrey and Rebecca were. Sometimes when he called Jeffrey, Jeffrey would go on and on about his love story–it almost made Stanley want to find a relationship of his own.
But now, the couple who were once sweeter than sugar were talking about divorce. Stanley was so stunned that he wondered if he’d misheard.
“Yeah,” Jeffrey answered flatly.
Stanley, never one to miss the gossip, leaned in. “Why?”
“She can’t accept Andrea,” Jeffrey said flatly, downing the rest of his drink.
“Who the hell is Andrea?‘ Stanley thought, lost. “Is Andrea… a woman?” he asked carefully.
Jeffrey shot him a look like he was an idiot. Still, he started explaining.
After a while, Stanley got the whole story. He stared at Jeffrey–cool, composed, and sprawled elegantly in the velvet booth–and blurted out, “Isn’t it totally normal that Rebecca doesn’t accept this?”
Jeffrey shot him a sharp glare.
“Could you handle it if she asked you to welcome some other man into her life?” Stanley fired back, grateful he still had some common sense left.
