The both of us have already endured so much difficulties and sufferings together for the past twenty years. Are you really going to turn your back onnow?" 9 Jacob replied in a serious tone, "All I want is to know how much money there is left in the family's savings. If you refuse to disclose it to me, then I will definitely file for a divorce tomorrow!" In fact, Jacob was already sick and tired of Elaine! 7 He has never felt any love or affections for Elaine, ever since they first got together! 1 He had always been in love with Matilda, the most beautiful girl in their school. Elaine had always been the third party in their relationship. In the past, Jacob has always ignored Elaine and this was the reason why she thought of this shameless trick. She got him drunk before she had an intimate relationship with him. After that, Elaine told Matilda about this matter and Matilda decided to break up with Jacob because she was so upset. 6 It was also Elaine's good fortune that she becpregnant even though they only had sexual intercourse once. That was the reason why she could use the child in her belly as an excuse and trump card to force Jacob to marry her. 6 Jacob felt as though he had lost everything in the world and it really hit him hard when he lost Matilda at that time. However, when he thought about the fact that Elaine was already pregnant with his own child, he chose to marry Elaine for the sake of their child. He had a sad marriage life with no love at all for the past two decades. 6 Jacob has originally accepted and submitted to his fate. What could he gain by divorcing Elaine anyway? Therefore, he did not think about divorcing her. 2 However, he felt compelled to do so after meeting up with his old classmates during their last reunion.

She had been bullying Jacob for so many years because Jacob would never fight back and he would simply tolerate and put up with it all the time.
However, Elaine could not help but feel anxious when she saw how resolute and tough he was today! Even though Elaine was very unreasonable and demanding, she was just a paper tiger! 1 If she was yelling and someone slapped her, she would keep quiet immediately. 12 However, if the other party showed a little fear or appeared to be slightly intimidated, then she would immediately rush forward to bite the other party! When Elaine saw Jacob losing his temper and getting angry, she was really scared. 2
