Can't Get Away With You

When Maggie was two years old, she accidentally broke Joey's watch. Joey was furious. He didn't do anything, but Maggie was so scared that she had a high fever in the middle of the night.

She stayed in the hospital for seven days and nights, and even the people in the old house were alarmed. As she carried Maggie home tiredly, but he said coldly, "where have you been with the child?"

She held the baby in her arms stiffly and went upstairs, like a walking dead

After that, she didn't expect anything more. She just wanted her child to grow up well. There were more and more rumors about Joey. She endured all the unfairness of this marriage, and she had no complaints about his coldness and rudeness. As long as the child was not hurt, she was willing to bear everything.

But then Sally came back. she was extremely afraid. She was afraid that Joey would show such disgusting eyes again and that he would hurt Maggie. She knew that the child was the only connection between her and Joey. If she lost the child, the two of them would be like passers-by.

So she took the initiative to ask for a divorce, so that he didn't have to be embarrassed, and the people in Gu Family's old house would not say anything. She left with the child, so that Sally and Joey could go out together with the two of them aboveboard.

In this way, she and Maggie wouldn't have to be looked down upon by Joey anymore.

It was a good idea, but she had overestimated herself and underestimated Joey's feelings for Sally. Joey didn't want to let her go at all. SH even used her child to humiliate her, regardless that Maggie was his biological daughter.

Lois lowered her eyes. She didn't care about anything else. As long as Joey was willing to give her the baby, she could bear whatever he did.

The lunch ended in silence. Lois took the card to pay the bill, but was told by the waiter with a smile, "your bill has been paid."

When Lois was confused, Kent had walked to the front desk and asked, "what's up?"

Lois was confused. Kent had never left the table when they were having dinner. Then who paid the bill?
