Chapter 402: Remarrying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Linda James thought that her son-in-law would definitely deal with her after she told him the truth. After all, she had exposed his greatest secret to Melanie Taylor. ‘Melanie Taylor and Finn are basically mortal enemies. It’s obvious that Finn will punish me for telling the former about his weakness. The two are basically mortal enemies, and doing that meant that I’ve sided with his enemy. It would only be wise to get rid of me while he still has the chance.’
To be honest, Finn Taylor desperately wanted to do so. However, kinship still mattered to him.
Finn Taylor liked Yvette Larson, and Linda James was the latter’s mother. This meant that the former couldn’t possibly treat the older woman simply as his enemy.
“Finn, I’ll support you no matter how you decide to deal with my mom.” Yvette Larson had never expected her own mother to go to such extents, and her heart was in a twist. ‘If this was anyone else, my husband would’ve already killed that person. However, it’s hard for him to make a decision because of me. I believe Finn will make a wise decision. I should support him in whatever he chooses to do.’
“Keep Mom at home for now. I’ll need some time to think about what to do with her.” Finn Taylor didn’t make a decision on the spot. Besides, onlookers were always more likely to see a clearer picture of the situation.
In other words, someone else might’ve taken action decisively. Unfortunately, this was his mother-in-law he was dealing with.
The latter was naturally displeased to hear that she was being locked up at home. However, it was good enough that her life wasn’t in danger, and she couldn’t possibly test the man’s limits.
Finn Taylor then brought his wife downstairs. “I’ve thought about it. South-East Asia’s Taylor family is really strong, and Melanie Taylor came prepared. Not only did she bring her men with her but also more than enough funds. Did you really think that I’d be able to defeat Melanie Taylor with just the Nile Street project? How ridiculous—that’s impossible! I can’t defeat her in such a short time. I gave it some thought during our time apart, and I realized that I really missed you. I was emotionally worn out, and I had nobody by my side. I realized just how important you are to me. Apart from Grandpa, you’re the only one who has ever treated me well. I want to get remarried—what do you think of that?”
‘Grandpa? This is Finn’s first time talking about his family. Although I’ve met some of them, Finn has never mentioned them in our conversations. They’re no different from strangers to him, but his grandpa seems different. Besides, Finn also said that his grandpa was the only one who treated him well.’ Yvette Larson could feel just how important she was to Finn Taylor. “Finn, I’ve been miserable during this period of time too. I missed you so dearly, and I felt as though I was a walking zombie. I lost all spirit and will to live, but I won’t agree to get remarried.”
Finn Taylor had never expected his ex-wife to refuse his offer. ‘Has Yvette had a change of heart? Are television dramas really right about how fake divorces eventually turn into real ones? That’s brutal! Is that what’s happening to me?’
Even Finn Taylor wasn’t absolutely sure; he just felt that his wife wasn’t someone like that.
They had been through so much over the past three years. If she didn’t want to be with him, she could’ve chosen to divorce him a long time ago. After all, her grandpa’s wishes no longer mattered since he was long dead.
Even Yvette Larson’s living relatives couldn’t restrain her, much less a deceased one.
“You don’t want to get remarried?”
“What are you thinking? All we did was sign divorce papers, but we never got them finalized. We have a marriage certificate but not a divorce certificate, so we never really got divorced.”
Now that Yvette Larson had said so, Finn Taylor burst into a foolish smile. Because he hadn’t truly intended to get divorced from his wife, he hadn’t gone to process the papers. ‘How could I have forgotten about that?’
“Hahaha, I nearly forgot about that. We’ve never really been divorced, so we don’t have to get remarried. Come on; let’s treat ourselves to a feast today.” Finn Taylor then brought his wife to a top-tier restaurant.
There, the couple bumped into two young women—his ex-neighbors!
The latter two were here for a meal too, but it was their ex-colleague who had brought them here. Said person wasn’t a big shot and was merely a manager with five to six men under his leadership, but he still had to put on an act and bring them to a fancy restaurant.
Yet, they had never expected to meet Finn Taylor there.
“Hey, why are you here, Mr. Taylor? Aren’t you the chairman? Why are you here too? Why are you two holding hands? What’s going on?” Michelle Yeller couldn’t help but feel as though she had exposed a huge secret, and shock was plastered all over her face.
However, Josie Meyer was fuming as though Finn Taylor owed her money. Yet, she couldn’t afford to say a thing because he was holding the hand of her chairman.
“Since you’ve already seen it, I won’t hide it from you. Do you remember that you’ve joined Larson Corporation? I was the one who set up the new company that you moved to. I’m that mysterious chairman.”
“Oh, you’re the chairman? I thought Ms. Larson was the chairman.”
“Can’t you tell? We’re holding hands because we’re married.”
“Married? Didn’t you just get divorced? Oh right, you said that your wife caught you with her best friend.. No, do you mean that the wife you were talking about was Ms. Larson?”
