Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 85

Mrs. Bradlee quickly took over the conversation, "Marissa, you may not know, but despite Mrs. Dawson

being a full-time housewife now, she used to be a powerhouse in the business world, the founder of

Medsafe Liyah Inc. Among all the housewives here, I admire Mrs. Dawson the most."

As she finished, an elegant woman sauntered over. Her loose-fitting dress could not hide her slightly

protruding belly. She stood next to me with a sharp look in her eyes.

She looked at Mrs. Bradlee and said, "Mrs. Bradlee, you are right. But let me clarify, there's a world of

difference between one housewife and another. Very few can stand in the same league as Mrs.

Dawson. It's easy to tell the difference between a wife and a home wrecker. Some people just look

shabby."

Mrs. Bradlee was embarrassed at the insult, and so was Marissa.

The one speaking was Irving’s ex-wife’s sister, Janice Makynzie.

Irving's ex-wife, Janetta Makynzie, was a strong and hardworking woman who had nothing when she

married Irving. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Against her family's wishes, she married Irving who was deemed a rebel. Her parents disowned her out

of anger, but Janetta married Irving regardless. They started from scratch, with Janetta working as a

nurse and Irving studying clinical pharmacy in college.

Spotting a good opportunity, they started a clinic with a retired doctor. Janetta worked tirelessly, and the

clinic gradually attracted more patients.

With enough funds, they opened a large pharmacy and their business took off. With Irving's expertise,

they established Elixir Pharma Limited.

Just as Janetta was beginning to enjoy their success, a new group of staff joined their private hospital,

including Olivia, who would later become Irving's the other woman and Mrs. Bradlee now.

Olivia's charm and hard work quickly made her Janetta's right-hand woman.

When Irving had surgery for hemorrhoids, Janetta, heartbroken to see him suffer, couldn't bring herself

to change his dressings. Olivia stepped up to the plate, becoming Irving's nurse during his recovery.

But what Janetta never expected was that while Irving recovered, Olivia managed to worm her way into

his bed. Janetta caught them in the act and was devastated. She swore to never back down for the

sake of their daughter and refused to divorce Irving.

However, when Olivia fell pregnant with Irving's child and gave birth to a son, he grew to support her

and divorce became inevitable.

The divorce proceedings dragged on for four years. On the day of the final hearing, Janetta was

involved in a car accident absent-minded, and fell into a coma since then.

Irving, wanting to maintain a façade of caring, continued to pay for Janetta's medical expenses even

after their divorce.

A year later, Irving married Olivia, who then became Mrs. Bradlee.

But Janice was no pushover, and she married a rising star in upper-class society. It was said that even

Irving dared not offend her.

After Janice finished speaking, she glanced dismissively at Marissa, who was standing next to me, and

said, "Birds of a feather flock together. Homewreckers, the lot of you!"

On hearing this, Marissa's smile froze. She seemed awkward standing in front of me, exuding an air

that lacked in grace and grandeur.

The atmosphere became tense. The wise ones knew everything, while the clueless ones watched the

show.

Just then, Hazel walked over with a displeased look on her face, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be

at home, resting..."

Before she could finish, Geneva, a godsend, walked over with a tall woman and interjected, "I specially

invited her, this distinguished guest. Hazel, you seem to be showing favoritism. You shouldn't always

bring your another daughter-in-law out."
