MY SUPER SON IN LAW, VOLUME 3 - Season 4 Episode 88

“I’ve fixed the computer for you. I still have other things to attend to, so I’m leaving.” It was already late at night, and Finn Taylor had no intention of staying here with two unfamiliar women. Hence, he left right after saying that.

He had no sooner left than Josie Meyer started lambasting him. “What the heck is he up to? He’s a piece of trash! He cheated on his wife with her best friend and was forced to get a divorce! How dare he act so self-righteous in front of me?”

Josie Meyer hated the man’s guts, and she couldn’t help but express her discontent because the latter had lectured her earlier.

“Josie, I really think there’s a deep misunderstanding between the two of you.”

“Misunderstanding? What misunderstanding? It’s fine if you think that he’s great, but the way I see it, he’s an utter b*stard!”

“B*stard? I don’t think so.”

“No? Have you thought about it?”

“Thought about what?”

“That he could be a good guy who deliberately tried to get close to us.”

“Get close to us? Why don’t you tell me what his goals for doing so are then?”

“You should ask him about that. Why would you ask me about that? How am I supposed to know what’s in his mind?”

“If you don’t know anything, why would you think that he got close to us on purpose? Besides, we’ve been the ones troubling him. He’s never taken the initiative to approach us.”

“That’s his little trick. If he were to take the initiative, we’d definitely see through him. He’s pretending to be cold and aloof while not approaching us, but he always appears at the right time when we get out of the house.”

“Don’t you have any conscience? He saved us when we were in trouble, but you’re now saying that he deliberately got close to us?”

“What, can’t I have my own suspicions?”

“Of course, you can. But think about why we were kidnapped that day. It was only because we got embroiled in the company’s matters, but that company has nothing to do with him. Yet, you’re saying that he arranged for us to be kidnapped and tried to get close to us? Do you think you’re making any sense?”

“It’s perfectly reasonable. Are you so sure that we were kidnapped because of the company’s matters? Who told us that? It was the kidnappers who said so, but didn’t you see that he seemed to be on good terms with them too? How do you know that he didn’t instruct the kidnappers to say so?”

“You’re really scary. How could you think that about someone who helped you?”

“I’m scary? I’ve never thought that of myself. I’ve only been able to survive because of my prudence. Think about how you’ve lived. Haven’t you always been by my side? It’s only because of my carefulness that nothing has happened to us.”

“You’re saying that there are tons of bad guys in society and that we should be careful. I totally agree with that, but I don’t think you should be suspicious of someone who helps you time after time.”

“Let me ask you this then: why have there been so many coincidences? Is it really fate? Are you sure he’s not creating these opportunities?”

“Do you mean that he was the cause of my computer breaking down too?”

“Of course not, but it’s his fault that he was the first person who came to mind once it broke down. You’re in a really dangerous spot now. You’ve already lost all sense and reason. If you ever get drunk or get so enamored when you’re with him, you might make an irreversible mistake once you lose control.”

“Irreversible mistake? Are you saying that I’m promiscuous and will strip for him?”

“Don’t put words in my mouth. You’re my best friend. I’m saying this only because I thought that you wouldn’t get angry at me, but why are you flaring up today? Is it because you think I’m badmouthing him? You’ve completely lost your mind. You’ll never think bad of him, but I’m your best friend!”

“But there’s really nothing to criticize. Why do you always make him out to be a bad guy?”

“You’re really hopeless. I have nothing to say to you anymore.”

“You’re the one who’s hopeless. Have you never thought about why you’re in this state now?”

“What state? Tell me exactly what you think. I want to see what my best friend truly thinks of me.”

“You said earlier that we’re best friends and that we don’t have any secrets between us. Since we can be honest and open with each other, I’ll be frank with you. I don’t think it’s because you’re bad that you’re still unmarried at 30. It’s because your standards are too high. You always think that men should do everything they can to get in your good books, and you always think that they don’t match up to you if they have so much as a flaw.”

“I’m so outstanding, so why should I be with those lousy men? Can’t I wait for someone who truly loves me? Am I doing something wrong by wanting to wait for someone who’s worthy of me?”

“There’s nothing wrong with wanting to find someone who’s suitable for you, but have you ever considered that your values are already warped?”

“My values? How can you be talking to me about that? What’s wrong with my values?”

“The biggest problem is that you’ve always thought the worst of men. Even if they have never shown any interest in you, you always think that they should try to please you. If they don’t, you would always say that there’s something wrong with them.”

“So you’re saying that I’m not judging them objectively and that I’m only painting them in a bad light because they don’t try to suck up to me?”
