Chapter 39
Seeing how he acted like it was totally normal, Jensina just found it funny.
How come she hadn’t noticed before that Coleman was such a double standard person.
But then, thinking that in just four days they’d be completely divorced, she didn’t feel like arguing anymore. She used the same way she dealt with the Herring family, speaking seriously but fake:
“Well, don’t overthink it, there was nothing between me and Eduardo.”
Quotes only jerks used.
She learned it too.
Coleman had a gentle look in his eyes. He rubbed her head like he was comforting a kid, “Of course I believed you.”
For many years in the past, that’s how he sweet–talked Jensina.
Even when she used to have fights with Stanley and none of Stanley’s other friends dared to help her, only Coleman would speak up for her.
Jensina started the car and hadn’t thought of a good excuse to leave when her phone suddenly rang.
It was Eduardo’s call.
Coleman’s eyes fell on her right away. Jensina wasn’t afraid of anything, so she just picked up.
Connected to the car’s Bluetooth, Eduardo’s voice landed in both their ears at the same time.
“Sina, dinner at the usual place, can you make it by seven?”
“Could.”
Jensina felt relieved and said yes right away.
Eduardo saw she agreed so quickly, and there was a smile in his voice, “You can bring family. If Gertrude has time, why don’t you bring her
too?
Jensina didn’t know what time Gertrude got off work today. Just as she was about to ask, the man next to her suddenly spoke in a low voice, “Mr. Faulkner, I’ll go with Sina.”
Eduardo had met Coleman before, so he could recognize his voice. There was only politeness left in his smile.“Of course you’re welcome.”
After hanging up, Jensina didn’t say anything, just looked at Coleman and asked, “Are you sure you want to go?”
“Couldn’t I go?”
Coleman frowned a little, “Afraid your senior would see me and feel uncomfortable?”
Men understood men best.
That Eduardo, the way he looked at Jensina in the parking lot last time, that wasn’t how you look at just a regular friend.
Jensina pretended not to get his sarcasm, and the curve of her lips hid that bit of coldness well. “I was just worried you might feel uncomfortable.”
I had something wrong with me.”
Coleman didn’t think much about it and didn’t really care.
Jensina, couldn’t be bothered to remind them again and just drove straight to the dinner place.
When they arrived, Eduardo and the others were already in the private room.
When Jensina pushed the door open and came in, the atmosphere in the private room froze instantly.

It wasn’t because of her, but because of Coleman, who stood by her side, almost like he was claiming her.
Juanita was also caught off guard.
She called and asked if Coleman was free tonight!
As a result, the guy who said he was busy on the phone showed up here.
The man stopped at the door, frowned at Jensina, and said, “Why didn’t you say it was a dinner with your colleagues from the clinic?”
“Since Eduardo and I had nothing going on, dinner… of course was with all the coworkers.”
There wasn’t a hint of guilt on Jensina’s face.
She had reminded him.
A girl who was a bit slow on the uptake spoke up, Sina, you know Juanita’s boyfriend?”
“Not really.”
Jensina didn’t miss the anger in Juanita’s eyes and said in a calm voice, “He was my…”
They sure knew each other, Sina was Coleman’s friend’s sister.”
Juanita suddenly took over the conversation, got up with a smile, and walked over to hold Coleman’s arm, “Right, Coleman?”
Coleman paused for a second, didn’t say anything yet, but he had already moved away from Jensina.
The others all had an Oh, I see look on their faces.
Eduardo sat at the head of the table and waved at Jensina, “Sina, come sit here, I saved you a seat,”
“Okay.
Jensina nodded. After she sat down, she realized there were deep red marks in her palm.
Someone was curious, “Sina, how come we’ve never seen your ex–husband?”
Jensina lowered her eyes and said softly, “He cheated.”
Ignoring that sharp gaze that suddenly fell on her, she added clearly, “Already cheated a long time ago.”
Emotional cheating.
That also counted as cheating.

The older doctors at the clinic weren’t interested in this kind of get–together.
Every time we had a get–together, it was all young people.
It was exactly the age when I hated evil like an enemy.
Especially the younger nurses, who usually envied Juanita a lot, immediately started cursing angrily.
I totally cursed out my ex–husband, whom I’d never even met, and the mistress who ruined my marriage.
There was no shortage of swear words throughout the whole process.
Juanita was furious and tried hard to hold back her anger, “Jensina, you’re being way too one–sided. Who knows why your husband cheated…”
Before Jensina could say anything, someone angrily cut Juanita off:“Don’t speak up for people like that. Scumbag and bitch, how could they be any good!”
After the meal, Jensina felt happy and satisfied.
But Coleman, on the other hand, kept a straight face the whole time. Born with a silver spoon in his mouth, the golden boy who took over the

huge Hardwick Group at such a young age, had never been scolded like that to his face before.
But I just couldn’t argue back.
She said he would feel uncomfortable.
He just didn’t believe it.
At the end of the dinner, Jensina got up and went to the bathroom.
“Sina was so outstanding, I didn’t expect her to mess up so badly in marriage.*
“What’s the big deal? She could definitely find someone better in the future.”
