Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 85

Mrs. Bradlee quickly took over the conversation, "Marissa, you may not know, but despite Mrs. Dawson being a full-time housewife now, she used to be a powerhouse in the business world, the founder of Medsafe Liyah Inc. Among all the housewives here, I admire Mrs. Dawson the most."

As she finished, an elegant woman sauntered over. Her loose-fitting dress could not hide her slightly protruding belly. She stood next to me with a sharp look in her eyes.

She looked at Mrs. Bradlee and said, "Mrs. Bradlee, you are right. But let me clarify, there's a world of difference between one housewife and another. Very few can stand in the same league as Mrs. Dawson. It's easy to tell the difference between a wife and a home wrecker. Some people just look shabby."

Mrs. Bradlee was embarrassed at the insult, and so was Marissa.

The one speaking was Irving’s ex-wife’s sister, Janice Makynzie.

Irving's ex-wife, Janetta Makynzie, was a strong and hardworking woman who had nothing when she married Irving.

Against her family's wishes, she married Irving who was deemed a rebel. Her parents disowned her out of anger, but Janetta married Irving regardless. They started from scratch, with Janetta working as a nurse and Irving studying clinical pharmacy in college.

Spotting a good opportunity, they started a clinic with a retired doctor. Janetta worked tirelessly, and the clinic gradually attracted more patients.

With enough funds, they opened a large pharmacy and their business took off. With Irving's expertise, they established Elixir Pharma Limited.

Just as Janetta was beginning to enjoy their success, a new group of staff joined their private hospital, including Olivia, who would later become Irving's the other woman and Mrs. Bradlee now.

Olivia's charm and hard work quickly made her Janetta's right-hand woman.

After Janice finished speaking, she glanced dismissively at Marissa, who was standing next to me, and said, "Birds of a feather flock together. Homewreckers, the lot of you!"

On hearing this, Marissa's smile froze. She seemed awkward standing in front of me, exuding an air that lacked in grace and grandeur.

The atmosphere became tense. The wise ones knew everything, while the clueless ones watched the show.

Just then, Hazel walked over with a displeased look on her face, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be at home, resting..."

Before she could finish, Geneva, a godsend, walked over with a tall woman and interjected, "I specially invited her, this distinguished guest. Hazel, you seem to be showing favoritism. You shouldn't always bring your another daughter-in-law out."
