Once Harold noticed that, his gloomy feelings about the divorce instantly dissipated.

“Are you jealous?” Harold teased.

He had mostly had Isabella figured out.

“Who's jealous? You've already done that with Marilyn! You have to take responsibility for her regardless of whether it was intentional or whether you've been set up by someone else. I won't forgive you if anything happens to Marilyn!” Isabella warned as she glared at Harold.

“Is that your reason for getting a divorce from me?” Harold asked.

“No... That's none of your business!”

Isabella panicked again, for Harold had read her mind.

“I'm going to discuss this with Marilyn again. She can have any compensation she wants.”

With that, Harold took out his phone to call Marilyn to clarify things with her.


“Get lost, Harold Campbell!”

Marilyn abruptly snatched Harold's phone and hurled it before shoving Harold out of the door. She then threw out all of his things and slammed the door shut.

“Bella, open up for now! I have other things to tell you!” Harold cried out as he smacked the door with a grim look.

Nonetheless, Isabella stubbornly remained silent as she leaned her back against the door. A complicated look crossed her face.

When Harold realized Isabella was not going to open the door, he had no choice but to pack his things and leave the house.

Just as he opened the front door, Benson and Pauline returned. As it turned out, they had gone grocery shopping.

When Isabella's parents saw their son-in-law with a suitcase, their hearts lurched, and they paled. In a worried tone, they asked, “Harold, what are you doing?”

When they saw their daughter coming home earlier, they thought that Harold and Isabella had made up. Hence, they went out to shop for groceries, planning to have a nice dinner as a celebration.

However, it seemed like that was not what was going on.

“I...”

Harold was stumped. He did not know whether or not he should tell them the truth.

“Did Bella get a divorce from you? She must have lost her mind! I'm going to teach her a lesson!”

Benson immediately figured out what was going on, and he instantly tried to rush into Isabella's room to reprimand her.

Harold was afraid that Isabella's parents would give Isabella a scolding when he saw Benson's angry expression, so he quickly lied, “Dad, Mom, you've misunderstood this. I'm only going out on a business trip for a while. I'm about to miss my flight, so I'm going to leave now. Please don't jump to conclusions, okay?”

Fearing that his lie would be exposed, he promptly left before they could say anything else.
