Leaving The Country After Divorce

CHAPTER 1907 BE FRIENDS WITH MADILYN

Hence, James agreed to Lucian's proposal.

He became the CEO of Flora Verba Group and Roxanne's apprentice, slowly climbing the stairs of success.

This is a win-win situation. In other words, it was a situation where he won twice.

Seeing how happy James was, Lucian and Roxanne exchanged glances and smiled. They had finally settled that matter.

That afternoon, James left after lunch.

He went to look for Jonathan and agreed to visit Elektra together after the latter returned from his vacation.

At the detention center, Elektra was rather confused to see that Jonathan and James had come to visit her.

After a brief catching-up, James asked why she was unwilling to find a way to lessen the sentence to a suspended sentence.

That way, she would at least not be locked up even though she would not be allowed to leave Horington. She would only have to report herself to a police station occasionally.

Elektra shook her head before she smiled.

“Thank you for coming to see me. I have to admit that I was stupid in the past. I never noticed that there were many things that I should appreciate, such as my friends, family, and career.

“I understand how you feel. There was a certain time when I was filled with destructive thoughts. Back then, I wanted nothing more but to be locked up and hide away. That way, I could be more at peace,” Jonathan suddenly said.

He paused to grin before continuing, “Luckily, I was able to walk out of the darkness and tried other methods to cope with my condition.”

“Haha, it seems like your thoughts still tie you down. You should take me for example. I feel that living a happy life or having a simpler job are not too bad. Of course, there has to be passion in whatever we do!”

James was aware of Jonathan's repressed emotions. Back then, when he tried to help Jonathan out, the latter was determined that he had no mental illnesses.

Most adults would more or less have some sort of psychological problems. Unfortunately, there were not many that would admit to having it.

The three of them talked for almost half an hour. Their visit ended with Elektra informing them that she would be released within three months.

After leaving the detention center, James felt relieved when he noticed that Jonathan looked more relaxed.

“When will you introduce me to Ms. Xander? How far have things progressed?” James asked in a mocking tone.

To his surprise, Jonathan panicked as he replied, “M-Madilyn and I are just friends.”

“Is that so? That's also fine. I want to be friends with Madilyn too. What do you think?” James teased.
