Chapter 78 Turning Things Around My issues with Jae have nothing to do with you .
As her ex husband , you should stay buried in your grave .
If you keep resurrecting like this , I might just have to bring a priest to exorcise you and send you back where you belong .
Eric said , his words sharp and biting .
Jeremiahs expression darkened further at Erics remarks Before he could make a move , I interrupted coldly , Why are you here ? If youre just looking for trouble , I dont mind calling the police again and having you hauled back to the station! Besides , I think everyones eyes are on the Cornell family right now .
Are you going to ruin your entire family for your stubbornness ? My words made Jeremiah hesitate .
He glared at Eric before finally turning to look at me .
Though his emotions seemed more controlled , his expression still carried resentment .
I heard from your parents that something happened to you , so I came to check on you .
But I didnt expect you to be so cozy with this pretty boy ! Jane , youve let me down .
I was still worried about you on my way here ! Worried about me ? That was a rare one .
He used to wish Id disappear from his sight , and now , he was claiming to be worried about me .
If it werent for the fact that I was still in control of my senses , Id almost think I heard him wrong .
I couldnt help but scoff .
How did you hear about it from my parents ? I dont think they wouldve contacted you on their own .

I couldnt stop myself from sneering .
In the end , youre still doing everything for Elsa , right ? Your so called concern for me is just an act to repair the relationship between our families .
Jeremiah , after all these years of marriage , I know you well .
Youre selfish and arrogant .
You value benefits above else .
The only reason youre still clinging to me now is because I still have value to you ! Once Im no longer useful , youll throw everything me away without hesitation ! It seemed I had hit a nerve as his eyes flashed with guilt .
But when he glanced at Eric , his anger flared up again .
Jane , you have no right to say that about me .
I came here because I genuinely cared about you .
But instead of appreciating my concern , youre criticizing me in front of others ! If it werent for you falling for another man , we would never have ended up divorced , and the relationship between our two families wouldnt have become this tense ! His ability to turn things around was really something .
I narrowed my eyes , no longer wanting to argue with him .
I turned to look at Eric instead .
Im a bit tired , so Im going to go rest .
You should head home too .
I then turned to go inside .

Jeremiah panicked and reached out to stop me , but before his hand could touch my shoulder , Eric stopped him .
Did you not hear Jae ? Shes tired .
If youre truly concerned , you should let her rest now , not keep pestering her .
Or is it that Jaes right about all your actions being just empty gestures? Erics sharp gaze swept over Jeremiah .
