CHAPTER 12: CHAPTER 12: WHEN YOU GET DIVORCED, I WANT YOU

Everyone in the audience heard this sentence.

Over a dozen bodyguards were scared stiff, and Commander Jennings and the officers were also stunned.

Nathaniel Gallagher is a top financial magnate in Audenburg.

He’s the pillar of the entire gambling industry, who would dare to go against him in Audenburg?

And yet Julian Grant blatantly flirted with his wife right in front of him.

If it had been anyone else, they would be as good as dead by now.

Nathaniel Gallagher’s face instantly went from white to black, so dark it seemed as if it could drip water.

"...What did you say? Say it again!"

Julian Grant sneered disdainfully and nonchalantly lit a cigarette, "Josephine, look at what you’ve found? Not only is he less handsome than me, but his ears also can’t hear. Everyone else heard it, but he’s deaf."

Pfft!

Nathaniel Gallagher heard it, nearly bursting a blood vessel in rage, "You’re asking for death—"

Commander Jennings hurriedly stepped forward to hold back the infuriated Nathaniel Gallagher, "Hey, hey, Mr. Gallagher, calm down, calm down, do not act rashly, things will get out of hand."

"Josephine, I’m busy today, so I’ll leave first. Once you’ve divorced, I’ll take you."

With that, Julian Grant blew out a smoke ring and gave her a flirtatious wink.

Then he bent down and got into the car.

"Vroom vroom vroom—"

The roaring engines of a dozen luxury cars thundered down the street, leaving in a high-profile and arrogant manner.

"..." Josephine Thompson’s head throbbed, as if needles were pricking her back.

Look at this...

No matter where he is, Julian Grant is a troublemaker, and he loves to stir up trouble, fearing that the world is not chaotic enough.

She was really so angry her heart ached.

Nathaniel Gallagher’s handsome and stern face was so distorted with rage that his hand gripped tightly, producing a cracking sound.

He shoved Commander Jennings aside and with long strides, stepped next to Josephine Thompson, his eyes filled with such consuming fury, "What is your relationship with him?"

Josephine Thompson looked at him coldly, "Just an ordinary college fellow."

"An ordinary college fellow?"

"What else would it be?"

"I think the two of you have been involved for a long time, haven’t you? Josephine, I’m warning you, if you dare betray me, I will personally end your life, don’t believe me, just try." Nathaniel Gallagher, losing his composure in public, spoke recklessly.

Upon hearing his harsh threats.

Josephine Thompson was not indulging him, she immediately turned a stern gaze towards Officer Jennings, "Officer Jennings, I want to report Nathaniel Gallagher for threatening me, he’s posing a serious threat to my personal safety."

"Now, I want to apply for a restraining order to forcefully limit Nathaniel Gallagher from approaching me."

Upon hearing this, Commander Jennings broke out in a cold sweat.

His gaze shifted back and forth between Nathaniel Gallagher and Josephine Thompson, a dry sound escaping his throat, "Mrs. Gallagher, this... this is just a couple’s quarrel, let’s not escalate it so much, alright?"

Officer Jennings was trying to smooth things over.

But Nathaniel Gallagher was not swayed.

Like an enraged beast, he fiercely grabbed Josephine Thompson’s wrist and started dragging her to the car, "Get in the car, we’ll settle this when we get home."

Today he had truly lost face.

Once home, he’ll certainly deal with her harshly.

He would let her know the consequences of making him angry.

Josephine Thompson’s face changed, she tried hard to shake off his hand, "Nathaniel Gallagher, let go."

"I’ve formally hired a lawyer to file for divorce, you will receive the papers tomorrow."

"I want to separate from you now, I’m not going back with you!"

If he takes her back.

He would definitely, just like last night, lose his mind on the bed and torment her.

Moreover, she just plucked a few hairs from their son, she needs to get a DNA test done.

Nathaniel Gallagher looked at Josephine Thompson with both rage and disbelief.

"Do you really want to divorce me?"

She had been bringing up divorce in the past few days, he thought she was just saying it out of anger.

He hadn’t expected she actually intended to divorce him.

Is it because of that Julian Grant?

Or perhaps, they’ve been involved for a long time.

"Yes, it’s time to end our marriage."

Nathaniel Gallagher swallowed his anger, his tone softened a bit, "Get in the car first, we’ll talk at home."

"Let go." Josephine Thompson forcefully shook off his hand and quickly hid behind Officer Jennings.

"Officer Jennings, I suspect Nathaniel Gallagher is going to commit domestic violence against me. I need help and request police escort back home."

"...Uh." Officer Jennings instinctively looked at Nathaniel Gallagher.

Nathaniel Gallagher, losing his reason due to anger, tried to approach her again by force, "Josephine, don’t test my limits."

Seeing this, Officer Jennings had no choice but to firmly step forward and block him, whispering, "Mr. Gallagher, please calm down."

"Now Mrs. Gallagher has made a request, we cannot disregard it. If this continues and the reporters are drawn here, it won’t be good!"

"..." Hearing this, Nathaniel Gallagher calmed down a bit.

Things were already very embarrassing today.

If the media gets involved, it would be even worse for the Gallagher Family’s business and reputation.

"A little quarrel between husband and wife, they argue at the head of the bed, and make up at the end of it. Just let her cool down, and then say some sweet words to coax her." Officer Jennings hurriedly continued to persuade him.

Hearing this, Nathaniel Gallagher’s anger finally subsided a bit.

Commander Jennings was right.

As long as he’s willing to coax, she’s quite easy to coax.

"President Gallagher, we need to handle this officially now, let us escort Mrs. Gallagher back. You both need to calm down, then discuss everything else."

"...Okay, thank you, Officer Jennings."

"You’re welcome."

"Mrs. Gallagher, please get in the car! We’ll escort you home."

"Alright, thank you."

Then.

Josephine Thompson got into the police car, and Officer Jennings personally escorted her back.

Vivian Shaw watched the entire event unfold from the sidelines.

She had never seen Nathaniel Gallagher this furious before.

It was the first time she realized Nathaniel Gallagher cared a lot about Josephine Thompson. She considered how hard it would be to push Josephine Thompson out and take her place.

Even though he treated her very well, in some respects, he valued her more than Josephine Thompson in his heart.

Unfortunately...

Her background was too unsatisfactory, if she wanted to become his wife publicly and officially. She had to rack her brains and give it her all.

"Nathaniel, don’t be mad anymore, let’s go back too."

Nathaniel Gallagher was still angry, in no mood to pay attention to Vivian Shaw, "I have matters to attend to, you take Henny back to the old mansion first."

After speaking, Nathaniel Gallagher, with a dark look on his face, got into the nearby Rolls-Royce, driving off alone.

"Nathaniel, Nathaniel."

After Nathaniel Gallagher left.

Vivian Shaw shook with anger, coupled with the fact that she had returned the multimillion-dollar ring, it made her heartache even more.

"Josephine Thompson, just you wait. I will reclaim everything that rightfully belongs to me, I will definitely defeat you, and become the rightful Mrs. Gallagher."

She had secretly loved Nathaniel Gallagher since she was a child.

Nathaniel Gallagher also liked her a lot, treating her particularly well.

But their background gap was too wide, and being from a wealthy family puts a premium on reputation. So, his wife had to be a socialite of equal standing.

Four years ago, he had to painfully send her abroad and then marry the equally matched Josephine Thompson.

...

In the police car.

Commander Jennings was kindly trying to counsel her, "Mrs. Gallagher, a woman should be softer."

"Outside, give your husband some face, this way you can keep his heart..."

Josephine Thompson knew he meant well.

But she just couldn’t take it to heart.

When it comes to feelings, she wouldn’t tolerate even a single grain of sand in her eyes.

It’s either all or nothing.

Since he still carried feelings for another woman, she would vacate all positions. She’d rather be single for life than share a husband with any woman.

"Commander Jennings, please stop at the next intersection."
