There He Is Again My Ex Husband by Emily Jenkins

With that, Mrs. Hilgard turned around and walked back into the house, leaving Mr. Hilgard shocked into a daze.

It wasn't until Mrs. Hilgard slammed the door shut that Mr. Hilgard came around. He chased after her and tried to explain that he didn't mean that. But in the last minute, his pride kicked in.

'Would it make me look like a fool if I ask her to stay?'

Mr. Hilgard stopped at the door, then turned around and walked away.

Mrs. Hilgard didn't mention what happened outside when she got back. She simply smiled and comforted Jean, "Go on. Don't let them ruin our dinner."

She originally planned to leave after dinner. However, with what happened just now, she had no choice but to stay at Jean's place.

After they finished dinner, Arthur took the hint and left. He felt that Jean and her mother might have something to talk about.

When Jean was finally alone with her mother, she asked worriedly, "My dad..."

Mrs. Hilgard was cleaning up the dishes. Hearing that, she stopped to look at Jean and replied calmly, "He said he wanted to divorce me."

"What?" Jean was shocked.

She said, "Is he out of his mind? Why would he say that? Is it because you support my relationship with Arthur?"

"Yeah," Mrs. Hilgard had long seen through her husband's little trick. "He is just in a miff. He thought that if he threatened me with divorce, I would be scared and choose to side with him."

Mrs. Hilgard laughed mockingly. "What he doesn't know was that I'm already fed up with his self-righteousness. So, I said yes."

Jean looked at her mother, her feelings mixed.

Jean knew better than anyone how submissive her mother used to be to her father. She didn't expect that her mother would actually agree to a divorce.

"Don't worry about it. It's okay," Mrs. Hilgard added. "I'm actually relieved."
