She hadn't finished speaking when Doris started crying. She claimed, "Josephine, it's all my fault. Don't blame Stuart. But I can't control my feeling, Just blame me. I'll take whatever you throw at me."
Stuart frowned and said, "Did you come here to cause trouble? I told you, you don't need to speak."
Robin chimed in from the side, "Exactly! Your words are so harsh. Josephine, you're so mean!"
Josephine first looked at Doris. She responded calmly, "Love doesn't follow a first-come, first-served rule, but people should have a sense of shame. If one can't control their emotions and desires, how are they different from animals?"
Then she turned to Stuart. Josephine snapped at him, "If you don't want me to speak, don't drag me here. You sure like to control things!"
She propped her chin and finally looked at Robin. Josephine remarked, "I heard your cousin is getting a divorce?"
Robin was taken aback, then felt a bit of glee. He said sarcastically, "How did you know? I didn't realize you paid so much attention to me."
"It is known to everyone. How could I not know?" Josephine said, "I heard your cousin's husband cheated, and you had someone break his leg. Strange, don't you consider Stuart a brother? Why didn't you break his leg when he cheated? Seems like you don't consider him close at all."
Robin's face turned dark. He said angrily, "Are you comparing yourself to my cousin?"
Josephine laughed. She shot back, "Can't compare, right? True, your cousin's husband has a mistress, and your cousin also has a lover. It's indeed different from me. But even so, you didn't want them to divorce. Robin, whatever happens between Stuart and me is none of your business."
Robin gritted his teeth in frustration.
Josephine continued, "Call me mean if you want; but at least I have integrity. Unlike some people, who are both mean and immoral, yet have the nerve to blame others."
Robin said angrily, "You!"
"Am I wrong?" Josephine raised an eyebrow in defiance. She quipped, "Or is it that only you can criticize others, but others can't criticize you? It seems not just the two of them are well-matched; your whole group has the same personality. No one understands or teaches the principle of not imposing what you dislike on others."
She sighed twice. Josephine remarked, "Pitiful, pathetic."
Robin always used this method to attract attention.
In the past, Josephine always remained silent, making Robin feel accomplished after criticizing her.
However, today, Josephine's words, without cursing him, made him extremely angry.
Stuart frowned. He said, "Alright, everyone stop."
Robin said, "Who's causing trouble? It's just her! You shouldn't have brought her here!"
"Yes, I shouldn't have come," Josephine said, "I should have let Daniel Bailey come and see what his grandson is saying. I am Stuart's wife, my status is protected by law. If I shouldn't be here, who should? If Daniel were here, he would have hit you already!"
Everyone knew that although Robin liked to play around, his family, especially Daniel, was very traditional and couldn't stand men fooling around outside.
Robin was left speechless and very angry.
Doris spoke up, "Josephine, are you angry? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have come."
"How rare of you to have this kind of realization," Josephine said, "Knowing you shouldn't be here, so why don't you leave? Or do you want someone to throw you out?"
Stuart lowered his voice, and demanded, "Enough! Stop!"
Josephine had completely let loose today. Usually, she endured in silence, and these people bullied her.
She smiled. Josephine said proudly, "I'm done talking, so I'll leave now. Anyway, I'm not one of you. People with different personalities shouldn't stay together. You all have fun."
"Stop!" Stuart's face was livid. He stated, "I didn't tell you to leave."
Josephine raised an eyebrow in surprise. She asked, "What, haven't heard enough from me?"
Doris spoke up, "Josephine, it's Stuart's birthday. Don't make him angry. He already works so hard..."
"Yes, it's very hard," Josephine said, "Having a wife at home and a lover outside, so busy; of course, it's hard. Ms. Kelly, you don't need to prepare coffee for him anymore; some kidney medicine would be necessary."
Stuart grabbed her wrist. He said forcefully, "Come with me!"
Ignoring everyone else's reactions, Stuart dragged Josephine out.
Doris also had a long face and said nothing.
Robin glanced at her and said, "I'll go check on them."
Outside, Josephine shook him off.
Stuart angrily said, "What exactly do you want? They are all my friends. You caused such a scene; you've embarrassed me completely!"
Josephine said, "They're your friends; what does that have to do with me?"
As soon as Josephine said this, Robin came out.
He looked at Josephine with anger in his eyes. Robin demanded, "Josephine, you've gone too far! You must apologize to me!"
Josephine sneered, "Yes, Mr. Bailey helps my husband find a lover and scolds me for being harsh and mean. It's really hard work. I was so inconsiderate, I'm really sorry."
Robin was about to explode with anger. He said, "You, you are simply..."
Stuart took a deep breath. He said regrettably, "I shouldn't have brought you here. Now that it's come to this, are you satisfied?"
Josephine smiled. She replied sarcastically, "Not quite satisfied, I feel like I didn't perform well. How about you let me review and do it again?"
Robin gritted his teeth. He lashed out, "A woman like you, whoever marries you is cursed! Stuart, if you don't divorce her, what are you keeping her for?"
Stuart's face was dark, and demanded, "Apologize!"
Josephine stopped smiling. She asked, "What did you say?"
"I said, apologize to Robin," Stuart said, "They are my friends; you must respect them!"
"Respect them? They didn't respect me." Josephine's face also turned cold. She stated, "Stuart, right now, even you are nothing to me, let alone them."
Stuart's face turned even darker. He threatened, "Josephine, do you really think I don't dare to divorce you?"
"Divorce then," Josephine said, "If you don't divorce, you're not a man."
Robin sneered from the side. He urged, "Go ahead, do it now!"
Stuart glanced at him. He said irritably, "Go inside."
Robin said, "Stuart! Haven't you seen her true colors? You consider the relationship between the two families, consider Andrew's feelings, but look at her attitude!"
"I'll handle it." Stuart's voice was icy. He instructed, "Go inside."
Robin wanted to say more, but Stuart angrily said, "Go inside!"
Josephine watched this scene with amusement.
Robin glared at Josephine before going back inside.
Stuart looked at her. He said sternly, "Josephine, do you know you're causing trouble? Do you know what will happen if we divorce, what will happen to the Kalmien family company?"
Josephine said, "You don't need to remind me, I know. Even if the Kalmien family company goes bankrupt, it's because my dad is incompetent."
"And you don't care?" Stuart said, "Your heart is really ruthless."
Josephine said, "Being ruthless is better than having no heart at all."
