Chapter 24 Do You Want To Just Divorce?

• Jasmine maintained her silence, growing increasingly unsure of how to establish a harmonious relationship with Michael. Their interactions resembled that of two adversaries, constantly at odds with each other, each eager to inflict emotional harm.
• At times, Jasmine found herself weary, no longer willing to endure the pain that Michael inflicted upon her. She couldn't bring herself to believe that his visits to the hospital were solely for her sake. If not for Grandma's insistence, Michael would not have come at all.
• "Jasmine, I am genuinely curious about what you do to always garner Grandma's support. Over the past three years, do you believe that my perception of you has changed simply because Grandma always sides with you?" Michael spoke with a smile, though it was laced with sarcasm. "Do not delude yourself, Jasmine. I will always harbor hatred towards you. I, Michael, despise deceitful women the most."
