Chapter 406: Angry
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“What, did you think that I’d get upset? Did you really think that I’d be angry about you working with Willow?” Yvette Larson chuckled. “Don’t overthink it; I’m not as petty as you. That young girl was your friend, but you took advantage of her. You assigned her to such a lowly position and even gave her such a low salary!”
Finn Taylor wanted to laugh. He couldn’t tell if his wife was putting him down or whether she was angry at him. If she wasn’t angry, that would be even stranger.
‘If your husband and best friend t secretly—even if it was only for work—shouldn’t you get angry as a woman? Wouldn’t you get jealous? I’m sure you’re lying if you deny it. It’s natural to get jealous. Everyone experiences joy, sadness, and anger.’?
But Yvette Larson knew her husband well and knew that he had his own limits. She was certain that he would never cross the line with her ex-best friend.
“Actually, this isn’t what I want to talk to you about. Have you thought about it? Willow Stone only wants to work with to defeat that family in Europe, not the Taylor family of South-East Asia. However, I don’t even know how powerful that European family is. From what I can tell, South-East Asia’s Taylor family doesn’t even an much to Willow Stone. She can probably easily destroy them as long as she wants to. It’s just that she doesn’t want to do that just yet.”
“When I talked to her that day, she said that the Taylor family was just an underling of that European family. If she really wanted to deal with them, they would be no match for her. Yet, lanie Taylor is such a strong opponent for . If I take the wrong step, I might very well die in her hands. However, soone who has my life in their hands ans nothing to Willow Stone! That can only go to show how influential that European family is! I’m starting to regret my decision to work with her, but I can’t possibly go back on my word. I’m worried about you.”
His wife was confused. “?”
“Yes, I’m worried about you. I never should’ve agreed to work with her. It’s alright if sothing happens to , but you’ve now been implicated as well. What if that family tries to kill us? The Taylor family from South-East Asia is putting enough things on my plate, and I now have more to deal with. Sigh, I can only bla my incompetence. I t my master a few days ago, and he reminded how he had tried to train when I was younger. However, I slacked off and always thought that I could put off my training till the next day. That was how I lost so much precious ti.”
“Master told that finances aren’t the only thing I’m lacking at the mont. I’m lacking in my martial arts skills too. Who will I be able to beat up, much less kill? Those people may be influential, but don’t you think that they’ll be afraid of you if you’re able to beat them down with a single punch? If I could do that, the Taylor family of South-East Asia or even that European family will an nothing to .”
“Finn, rember that we’re married. We’ll stay together for better or for worse, do you understand? I’ll repeat myself if you don’t. Don’t try to bear the burden alone. I’ve never regretted marrying you, and I’ll support whatever decision you make. I don’t object to you working with Willow. Who cares about South-East Asia’s Taylor family or that family in Europe? You’re the strongest in my eyes. I believe that you’ll be able to defeat them! Didn’t your master say that you’d be able to protect yourself as long as you’re skilled enough? Stop wasting ti here then. Let’s get down to training.”
“Haha! There’s no hurry for that. Let’s go have sothing to eat first.” Finn Taylor hadn’t expected his wife to be in more of a hurry than himself. He had brought her here for a al, yet she wanted him to start training before they even had said al!
“Have our al? Do you think this is a joke? Since your master already said so, I’ll have to supervise you on his behalf.”
“No, no. Master is right, but I have sothing to say too. Humans need to eat to survive. I haven’t eaten yet, so how am I supposed to have any strength to train? Co on; a al won’t take us long.”
“I’ll trust you one last ti. Let’s go for a workout after this then.”
Finn Taylor then brought his wife into a restaurant. He had been here once and had enjoyed his al.
The man then ordered several dishes before turning to his wife and asking what she wanted.
“Hey, I didn’t realize that you like cilantro.”
‘I thought you didn’t like eating cilantro. I rember that you even scolded for buying it in the past because I wanted to have so. Don’t they say that there are only two kinds of people in this world—those who like cilantro and those who don’t? It’s obvious that we’re split right down into those different camps.’?
“But I’ve changed for your sake, and I eat it now. What, do you feel moved by my love?”
“Of course. I’m very moved that you love so deeply that you were willing to change your old habits. I’m so lucky!”
“Stop it with your glib tongue and eat your vegetables!” However, Yvette Larson understood that her husband was the one who had truly made the most sacrifices in their relationship.. While they had gone through the past three years together, Finn Taylor had always been the subject of ridicule, not her.
