Who Cares About Him When I'm Married to the Richest Man?-Chapter 15: Zhou, Your True Love Is Here

Mason Jacobs was sprayed in the face with her saliva and hurriedly stepped back, his eyebrows tightly furrowed, his voice cold and hostile, "This is between Elara and me, it’s none of your business!"

"Thank you very much! Do you think I care about your dirty laundry? Do whatever you want, just don’t drag Elara down with you. Knowing you has been the worst luck for Elara!"

Esther Carter ignored Mason Jacobs’s livid face, launching a barrage of words in his face. Suddenly, her eyes flicked behind him, revealing a meaningful smile.

"Oh, Mr. Jacobs, your beloved is here, go on and explain to her, it’s not Elara clinging to you, it’s you who keeps calling her back!"

Cecilia Quincy seemed oblivious to the tension in the air, wearing a graceful smile as she walked up to Mason Jacobs and asked, "Elara, what a coincidence, are you here for fun too?"

Esther Carter rolled her eyes without restraint.

She absolutely loathed those fake girls, especially those pretending to be innocent.

Her father was bewitched by such women outside, leading to her mother’s death by depression!

She couldn’t understand why these men were so blind.

Elara Hale didn’t want to get involved with these two any further and was about to pull her friend away when Cecilia Quincy continued,

"The court case is tomorrow, Elara, are you worried about losing? I know you don’t have much money for the compensation. How about I ask Mason and my mother-in-law to have mercy, just sincerely apologize and let’s let this go?"

Her expression was worried, as if she genuinely cared for Elara Hale.

Elara Hale paused slightly, her fingers unknowingly tightened, shaking her head in refusal, "No need."

Cecilia Quincy stepped forward, looking at her with concern, "Elara, don’t be stubborn, I really want to do something for you, just agree."

Mason Jacobs furrowed his brows, somewhat displeased, "Cece, she doesn’t appreciate your kindness, why bother saying more? Kindness only counts if the other party is grateful."

Esther Carter, fiery-tempered as ever, rolled up her sleeves immediately and pointed at Cecilia Quincy’s nose, "I’ve tolerated you for too long. What a shameless act, snatching someone else’s husband and still flaunting it? Elara said she doesn’t need it, are you deaf or brainless? Acting all gracious, our Elara doesn’t need it!"

Mason Jacobs’s face sunk, he was about to speak but Esther Carter blocked him, "Can you two just take a hike as far as possible? We don’t want anything to do with you, is that clear enough? Acting shamelessly right in front of the ex-wife, seriously, what a spectacle!"

Cecilia Quincy’s eyes immediately reddened, hurriedly explaining, "Elara, that’s not what I meant, you misunderstood me, I’m sorry, if you don’t want reconciliation, I won’t say anything, please don’t be angry..."

Esther Carter retorted bluntly, "Are you stupid? Which eye saw Elara angry? It’s me who’s angry, okay? Elara can’t be bothered to waste words with you!"

Finished, she was about to pull Elara Hale away.

Mason Jacobs’s face turned ashen, his gaze furious as he said, "Stop! Elara Hale, Cece means well, don’t be so ungrateful! Apologize to Cece!"

Esther Carter snorted, "Still have the face to ask us to apologize? I don’t know who’s being ungrateful here!"

If she wasn’t afraid of being bitten by the Jacobs Family, she’d have gone up to beat those despicable people ages ago!

But fearing the Jacobs Family’s retaliation, she could only vent through words.

Cecilia Quincy clung to Mason Jacobs’s arm, crying pitifully, "Mason, don’t make things difficult for Elara, I know she didn’t do it intentionally, I’m okay with enduring some grievance, as long as I can be with you, I’m not afraid of anything Elara says..."

Esther Carter clenched her hands tightly, afraid that if she let down her guard, her fists would fly out of control.

After comforting Cecilia Quincy, Mason Jacobs turned to Elara Hale, his gaze cold and unsympathetic, as if looking at an enemy rather than someone he once shared a bed with.

He warned word by word, "Have your friend apologize to Cece, or else I don’t mind giving you a free ride to the police station. You should know I have this capability."

Esther Carter’s face paled slightly, she said coldly, "It was me who cursed, if you want revenge, come at me, don’t entangle my friend!"

Apologizing was absolutely impossible for her, as long as her friend wasn’t dragged into it, she didn’t mind spending a day in the station!

Elara Hale sighed softly.

She truly didn’t want a shred of entanglement with Mason Jacobs anymore, she had lost too much in that marriage and now only wished to start a new life wholeheartedly. 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂

But everything related to Mason Jacobs always jumped out unexpectedly in front of her.

She would rather choose to retreat than to engage further.

"Miss Quincy, I apologize to you." She raised her eyes, her words were directed to Cecilia Quincy, yet her gaze was fixed on Mason Jacobs, full of restraint and tremor, "Can we leave now?"

After all, it was someone she loved for two years, trying to remain calm, she still couldn’t suppress the sadness and choke.

Zara Dalton stepped forward at this moment to mediate, "President Jacobs, I shamelessly plead for mercy too, consider it as giving face to the Dalton Family, let this matter go."

Mason Jacobs looked into Elara Hale’s eyes and was suddenly shocked, what kind of eyes were those, angry, helpless, disappointed, like dead ashes, she was struggling to appear calm, yet couldn’t conceal the pain...

This was the woman he shared a bed with for two years, the woman he was fed up with...

Mason Jacobs remained silent, so Elara Hale took it as his agreement, and she pulled Esther Carter and Zara Dalton away.

In the corridor, Cecilia Quincy tugged at Mason Jacobs’s arm, worriedly asking, "Mason, what’s wrong?"

Mason Jacobs suddenly snapped back to reality, rubbed her head, "Nothing, let’s go."

Cecilia Quincy felt dissatisfied that he didn’t bring up the previous matter, but now that those people were gone, she could only suppress her emotions, smiling sweetly, "Okay."

Mason Jacobs called for a valet and sent Cecilia Quincy into the car, "You go back first, I have to go to the company and meet the lawyer, I don’t want any mishaps in tomorrow’s court case."

Cecilia Quincy nodded obediently, "Come back early then."

"Alright."

Watching the car drive off into the distance, Mason Jacobs turned and hailed a taxi, instructing the driver, "To Orlaine Manor."

Orlaine Manor is far from the city, the driver initially hesitated to go, Mason Jacobs simply took out his wallet and threw a handful of hundred-dollar bills over, "No nonsense."

Running a trip for that much, the driver’s eyes lit up.

"Alright!"

An hour later, the taxi stopped at the outside of Orlaine Manor, initially thinking this was it, but unexpectedly, the passenger in the back seat tapped on his phone, and the heavy iron gate opened loudly.

Mason Jacobs instructed, "Drive forward, there’s a villa around the bend, stop when I say so."

The manor was large, without a single light, clearly uninhabited, the driver felt uneasy but for the money, gritted his teeth and continued driving.
