Chapter 005 Laura Was Crippled
“Jenny, who told you to use that tone…”

Barret barely finished his words.

Suddenly, the driver slammed on the brakes with a sharp jerk.

Jenny was sent into Barret’s arms, feeling dizzy.

Luckily, Barret shielded her head with his hand, or else her head would have been broken.

The driver apologized repeatedly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Smith.”

“Be careful with your driving.”

Barret dropped the words coldly and turned to Jenny. “Who told you to use that tone of voice?”

“Honey, I thought you wanted me to beg you!”

Jenny continued in a sweet and soft voice.

They had been married for two years and it was almost the first time she had ever talked with Barret like that.

In the past, she hadn’t dared to do it for fear that he wouldn’t like it and that he would think she was too much of a drama queen.

Now she was emboldened by the thought that they were getting divorced anyway.

It would be the last time anyway, even if he didn’t like it.

“Sit up.” Barret looked at Jenny.

Jenny immediately sat up straight.

“Talk properly from now on,” he warned.

“Oh.”

He seemed extremely unhappy with Jenny’s answer. “Oh? Do you hear me?”

“Yes.”

“It’s no use just hearing it. You should keep it in mind.”

“What’s more, you mustn’t talk with other men like that,” Barret added.

When he finished, he couldn’t help whispering to himself, “Barret, what are you doing? You shouldn’t have said that! You’re going to be divorced soon, and then she can talk like that with anyone as she likes. Is that any of your business?”
