Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO - Season 3 Episode 5

Ryder was suffering because he wasn’t exactly an intellectual. He had the

guts to do whatever he wanted when in a fit of rage, but when the deed was

done, he would not know what to do to de–escalate the situation.

“5,000, now! Give that to me and I’ll forget about the whole thing. Otherwise,

I’ll call my parents! You abused me! I will be seeing you in court!” Abellyn

demanded hotly.

“5,000? I don’t have that kind of money!”

“I know that you were paid just two days ago. Give that to me, now!”

Faced with Abellyn’s threats, Ryder had no choice but to pay her 2,500. Finally,

she relented and left their unit with a cold scoff.

Misery overwhelmed him. What should he do now?

That afternoon when Emmanuel stepped out of the hospital and intended to

drive to Terence Group, he found Ryder waiting for him by the hospital

entrance.

“Oh, God. Ryder, what happened to you?”

Then, he hastily dashed out of the car upon seeing Ryder’s messy hair and

red–rimmed eyes.

“…”

Ryder released a heavy sigh, not knowing how to start.

As Emmanuel was concerned that Ryder might be in trouble, he hurriedly

messaged Beatrix to tell her he was taking the day off. Then, he led Ryder to a

place where they could talk freely.

They soon arrived at a taco truck.

After Ryder downed two cans of beer, he told Emmanuel all about his day.

Finally, he sighed wearily, complaining, “I was too impulsive! I shouldn’t have

made a move before I had proof. Now, I’ve tipped her off and suffered for my

rashness!”

Emmanuel wholeheartedly agreed with that. He had told Ryder to control

himself, but it was obvious that Ryder didn’t heed his warnings.

Still, at this point in time, the only advice he could give was, “Don’t beat

yourself up over it. Abellyn is the one in the wrong. In the end, justice will

prevail. I’ll make sure of that!”

Ryder nodded and continued drowning his sorrows in beer.

Emmanuel’s first task was to find out what Ryder thought of the situation.

“Have you ever thought of divorcing her?” he bluntly asked.

He did not have the nerve to question Ryder about this before, but now that

she had definitely cheated on Ryder–well, at least mentally, for now–Ryder

needed to make up his mind on this.

“I don’t know. I really don’t know…”

Ryder’s mind was in chaos. Tommy was only six! There was a high chance

that he would feel abandoned or experience other negative emotions that

might drastically affect his childhood and cause irreparable damage if Ryder

decided to divorce Abellyn.

Still, Emmanuel had discussed this particular matter with Mackenzie, so he

knew what Ryder was likely worried about, “Ryder, don’t overthink things. Just

focus on the now. As Mackenzie has said, there’s no making without breaking.

If this family isn’t capable of surviving turmoil, you should let it die on good

terms… Or, whatever pa*ses as good terms at this point. You’re only 35 years

old. You’re still in your prime, perfectly capable of building a better

household.”

Ryder’s lack of confidence was his greatest weakness.

He was not well–educated, and he was not as handsome as Emmanuel. He

had only married Abellyn because he was afraid he would never be able to

find a wife. Thus, he doted on her with all his might.

Now, he realized he had made a terrible mistake.

However, he was not a young man any longer. Abellyn had also gambled

away most of his savings. He was actually in a more unfavorable state than

he was seven years ago. It was no wonder that he had no self–confidence to

speak of.

“If worse comes to worst, you can raise Tommy all by yourself. Abellyn never

did anything for the family anyway!” Emmanuel exclaimed.

Then, he solemnly swore, “I promise I will help you find proof of her cheating

on you last night. You will surely be granted custody of Tommy once I have

solid evidence. There’s no need to be afraid. You can’t spend your whole life

being taken for a fool by that woman!”

Ryder sighed and nodded but did not say anything.

“You can’t keep dragging this on, Ryder! The man Abellyn seduced last night

is quite rich and high in social status. She has already made her first move,

so she’s probably looking for a better catch. I’m certain that she plans to

divorce you!”

“In that case, you need to strike while the iron is hot. You cannot give them

the chance to attack you, or you’ll lose a lot more than just Tommy. There’s

no way you can live with yourself then,” Emmanuel concluded.

He was actually just repeating what Mackenzie said to him.

Women always had a deeper insight into other women.

Moreover, Mackenzie was a smart woman. Although she had not spent time

getting to know Abellyn, she knew exactly what kind of woman Abellyn truly

was.
