Chapter 296: Chapter 296

Chapter 296 Jaime reached out his hand toward Mario and said, “Let me see.”

Mario handed over the phone.

Jaime repeatedly watched this birthday video, and tears streamed down his face.

Eason’s face turned pale. “Your incompetent look pissed me off!”

Menu Perla tried to pull him away. “Don’t make things worse. Incompetent look? Wasn’t it our son who brought in the company’s investment? Cut the crap! If it weren’t for Jay, our company would have gone bankrupt long ago!”

Eason frowned and didn’t say anything. He took a deep look at Jaime and turned around to leave.

Juliette saw Jaime obsessively watching Mariela’s videos over and over again. She couldn’t stand it anymore, so she turned around and left.

“Jay, forget about that woman. I will introduce you to someone better.” Perla wiped away her tears and said in a broken voice.

Efrain sighed, “Jay, there are plenty of fish in the sea. Why can’t you let it go? I can find any woman you like for you.”

Jaime stared at the video silently.

Mario shook his head helplessly and said, “Forget it. Leave him alone to calm down.”

“No way!” Perla said.“I can’t leave him alone again. What if he tries to commit suicide again?”

Jessie’s bone marrow transplant surgery was very successful, and there was no rejection reaction. Her life was saved, and Mariela could finally relax and attend to other matters.

These days, she was busy preparing case materials to attend court hearings.

Mariela knew Jaime was so desperate that he would commit suicide, so she didn’t dare to live in her apartment at Eclipse Apartments.

Lennon bought her a new villa, which was about seven miles away from the law firm. It wasn’t far, so it was convenient to drive to work.

On Saturday, Mariela hired a housekeeper to pack her belongings and called a moving company.

When the last suitcase was moved out, Jaime walked out of the elevator.

His face was pale, with sunken eye sockets and faint dark circles under his eyes. He looked haggard and had lost some weight.

Jaime saw the staff of the moving company carrying luggage out, stopped in his tracks, and looked at Mariela with a melancholic look.

“Are you moving?”

Mariela nodded and didn’t say anything. She walked into the elevator. As she walked past Jaime, he grabbed her wrist.

“Mariela, don’t go,” Jaime pleaded with mixed feelings in his eyes.“I won’t bother you anymore. Please don’t move away, okay? I want to be closer to you. I want to quietly and peacefully be at your side.”
