Chapter 1612
Larkin fell silent.
Could there be a more rational wife in the world than his?
“But he’s Jacob, Larkin dropped his gaze, his expression melancholic.
Erica, with her wealth of life experience, could she not see through Larkin’s little schemes?
“But you’re the one who defeated him and won me over.”
Larkin involuntarily put on a smile.
“However, he probably won’t back down so easily, Erica seemed a bit dispirited.
Larkin extended a hand, holding Erica’s: “No worries, I’ll sort it out”
Looking at Larkin, Erica felt the pressure in her heart dissipate.
It reminded her of a relationship seminar she attended a long time ago, where the psychologist said having an

Erica scoffed at this idea back then.
Could emotional stability really have such great benefits?
Now, Larkin was proving the psychologist right.
“So, I’ll leave everything to you?” Enca chuckled.
