Chapter 88

Nick was shocked and thought, 'Cut back on expenses? Has the company of the Tompson family really reached such a low point?'

Nick was startled, sitting up abruptly. He was incredulous and asked, "Honey, don't scare me like that!"

If it really collapsed, the Tompson family's hefty real estate could give him a huge windfall.

Wendy furrowed her brow and showed a somewhat ceric smile when noticing the tension in his eyes. "Honey, why would I scare you? You can see the company's situation yourself. How about inviting Easton over tomorrow night and considering arranging a marriage with Jennifer?"

That was what she truly wanted to say. If Natalie wanted a divorce, she should not just allow it to happen.

Easton was no catch and definitely wasn't a good enough match for her daughter.

She thought Maurice whom Natalie went on a blind date with that night was a great guy.

Nick shifted his gaze and wondered if she had noticed something hidden earlier.

Nick thought, 'Hearing what she said just now, she was still very worried about Jennifer!'

"Alright. Prepare some nice dishes for tomorrow. I'll have Easton come over, and we need to sort this out. Natalie has always refused to divorce..." said Nick.

"Nick, it's Easton who refuses to divorce now. We need to convince him to divorce and marry Jennifer," Wendy reminded him, not wanting to hear him badmouth her daughter.

Wendy thought she was also mean and wasn't fit to be Natalie's mother.

That beast Nick was even worse. He swapped her daughter and sent his and the mistress's daughter for her to raise. She dreamed of killing that jerk. He even dreamed of taking everything from the Tompson family to give to Jennifer and his illegitimate child. Nick was puzzled and couldn't figure it out. He thought, 'Easton wanted a divorce before. Why won't he go through with it since Natalie really wants it now? Does he suddenly notice how great Natalie is?'

Nick was concerned. "Natalie and Easton haven't divorced yet. Would what we're doing make Easton feel pressured?" Wendy's voice was cold. "Why would it? The problem is with Easton, and he just needs to agree to the divorce."

Nick was even more eager for Easton to become his son-in-law; after all, Easton was more competent. With Easton's help in the future, it would be much easier to take all the assets of the Tompson family.

Nick agreed to invite Easton over to the house tomorrow.

Wendy fell into a deep sleep, but Nick was getting nervous.

Under the covers, his hand moved back and forth, but nothing was happening.

Nick was about to lose it and thought, 'Why is this happening? I am only fifty, and this is practically draining my life away!'

Nick didn't sleep a wink that night and felt a bit disoriented.

Wendy slept well and felt very
