Chapter 71 - 71: Having a Trust Crisis in Men
Since she had already accepted that Yigol Novak was together with her daughter, she should let go and let these young people live their lives. It would really be inappropriate for an old lady like her to be a third wheel in their relationship.
They both did not bring up the topic of their marriage registration, demonstrating a silent understanding they shared.
Once raised, this issue would inevitably lead to an in-depth interrogation. If the marriage registration process was spoken about, wouldn’t it shock her mother-in-law?
After bidding her mother-in-law farewell, Yigol naturally held Suri Drew’s hand as they returned home; Suri also naturally wrapped her arms around Yigol’s arm.
This change brought joy to Yigol’s heart. It seemed that his wife had lowered her guard against him considerably.
Through their days together, Yigol could see that Suri had a heavy guard up. This was probably due to her past family misfortune, which made her distrustful of men.
Yigol figured this out only after learning of Suri’s family’s misfortune.
Thankfully, he hadn’t forced her, thereby preserving her dignity.
It is difficult to overcome such inherent defenses. They must be shattered bit by bit. Fortunately, he hadn’t made her uncomfortable, nor scared her earlier.
If not for the System’s assistance, how could he have married such a great wife and such a nice girl like Suri? He has to cherish her, otherwise he would feel guilty.
Suri is indeed special. She is very independent, tough, but also insecure.
She takes self-respect seriously, which is why he is so worried about Suri.
Things easily attained are seldom cherished. If Suri had been an easy girl, he might not have fallen for her as deeply.
This relationship was put to the test, thankfully, they were both delicately protecting it and valuing each other.
Behind them, in a car not far away, a man glared fiercely at the intimate couple.
This man was Bob Presley, who had sought out Sherry Woods the previous day.
He had thought that Suri’s mother couldn’t possibly approve of someone like Yigol Novak. After returning home, he had even invited several girls over to vent his frustration from the humiliation he had suffered earlier at Suri’s and Yigol’s houses.
He was so exhausted that he only woke up late on the second day. And the first thing he thought of as soon as he woke up was Suri. He wondered how things had evolved after Sherry Woods arrived at Suri’s place.
He had planned to come early. He slightly regretted indulging so much the previous night, which resulted in his late arrival.
His original thought was quite optimistic. In his opinion, Suri’s mother would definitely not approve of someone like Yigol. If she saw Yigol and Suri living together, she would definitely lose her temper and demand a divorce.
Then, in order to reassure herself, Suri’s mother would certainly want Suri to quickly find a reliable person to marry. And then, his opportunity would come.
He thought that his plans were quite good and that things would develop as he predicted.
But unexpectedly, when he rushed out in the morning, he saw Yigol and Suri’s mother leaving together. And Suri’s mother was even riding on Yigol’s small electric scooter?
Later, when the two returned home and came out again two hours later, Sherry Woods was full of smiles. The look she gave Yigol was so warm and contented, as if she was extremely pleased with him.
Upon witnessing this scene, Bob Presley’s mentality instantly collapsed. This was much too different from what he had expected.
He still couldn’t believe what he was seeing was real, but no matter how many times he drank water or rubbed his eyes, the scene in front of him remained the same.
Moreover, before Sherry Woods left, she actually took Suri’s hand and put it in Yigol’s hand. At that moment, Bob Presley felt a strong sense of hatred.
Why, why would things turn out this way?
At this moment, Bob Presley really wanted to kill Yigol. He even wanted to drive directly over Yigol, but he only dared to entertain such thoughts, since he didn’t have the nerve to commit a crime.
He really wanted to give Yigol a sound beating, but he was no match for Yigol.
Bob Presley was confused and had no idea how to vent his anger.
After a while, Bob Presley suddenly thought of a way to vent his hatred.
He hurriedly switched on his car’s video recorder, clipped the scene of Yigol and Suri being intimate, carefully watched it several times, and after making sure that there were no mistakes, he posted the video in the university class group.
Accompanied with the video was a message: “Classmates, take a look at our campus belle. She has actually fallen to this?. I couldn’t believe that she is now together with a poor young man delivering packages. When I saw it, I couldn’t believe it was true.”
“Suri Drew was the dream girl of everyone during our school days. Isn’t that right? The queue of people pursuing her was long, and she barely gave anyone the time of day, believing herself to be so noble.”
“Did any of you feel a blow? Any of our classmates randomly picked are better than this courier guy. But Suri Drew would rather be with such a man, and not give a chance to others.”
After Bob Presley sent the video and the message in the group, he felt slightly better venting his anger. He gave a mocking laugh, staring at his phone and waiting to see everyone’s reaction.
Bob Presley knew that Suri never read the group messages and was understood to have even silenced notifications. Unless she was directly contacted and informed, she wouldn’t find out about it anytime soon given her nature.
In this way, there was sufficient time for the matter to brew.
By the time Suri discovered it, the incident would have developed quite a bit, and would be difficult for her to explain.
Bob Presley precisely wanted to unleash public pressure on Suri. More importantly, this was from her female classmates.
Back in school, Suri was the object of love and admiration for male students, and certainly the object of envy for the female students. Her beauty was one thing, her grades were also extraordinary, and she had an air of superiority, which led to many female classmates being jealous to the point of going crazy.
Rumors about Suri being kept by a tycoon and becoming pregnant never ceased during their school days.
If this spreads out, it would definitely put a lot of pressure on Suri.
Even if Suri knew that he spread all these videos, it didn’t matter. After all, what he said was the truth.
He just wanted to tell Suri one thing – she should not demean herself being with a lowly man. The whole world would disapprove of it.
After sending the message, Bob Presley’s attention never left the group chat.
Normally, nobody in the group chat spoke much. But, after his news, the group immediately livened up.
Tang Jun replied to Bob Presley: “Are you sick? If my memory serves me right, weren’t you Bob Presley the one who was pining the most over Suri Drew?”
