A knock sounded at the door. Jonathan turned off his phone and spoke quietly, “Come in.”
The door to the hospital room swung open, and in walked Marina’s mother, Edna.
The moment Edna saw Jonathan, her face stretched into a practiced, insincere smile.
But Jonathan couldn’t bring himself to smile back.
After all that had happened to Marina, her own mother was only showing up now.
Jonathan knew the truth: when Marina went bankrupt and fell into crushing debt, her parents had vanished without a trace, dumping every bit of responsibility onto her shoulders. It was painfully obvious—she was left to fend for herself.
Granted, Marina had been reckless and naïve, falling straight into the trap Niamh had set for her.
But even when Edna heard what had happened to Marina—the assault—she didn’t come.
She was only here now, most likely for his sake.
Jonathan’s expression darkened as he sighed.
“Mr. Thomas, our poor Marina… That Niamh—she wanted to ruin her! If this goes on, I’m afraid Marina won’t… she just won’t survive…”
Edna’s voice trembled as she spoke, eyes glistening with tears.
She expected Jonathan to offer some words of comfort, but he stayed silent.
Edna, a little embarrassed, pressed on, “This whole scandal… after this, Marina won’t be able to show her face in public anymore… Unless—”
Even if she didn’t finish, Jonathan could guess exactly where she was going.
“Oh Mr. Thomas, I’m not trying to force you into anything… but the whole world knows now that your ex-wife is the one who hurt Marina, and everyone’s talking about the love triangle between you, Marina, and Niamh. If you don’t marry Marina after she gets out of the hospital, not only will her prospects be ruined forever, but your own reputation online—well, it won’t look good either!”
“But if you do marry Marina, everything changes. People will praise you for standing by her, for true love that endures hardship… It’ll be great PR for the Thomas Group, too. Everyone will see what a responsible man you are!”
Edna rattled off her arguments without missing a beat, weighing the pros and cons for him.
