Chapter 58 True Love, Never Apart
“Didn’t you say that I should apply for the military? If I apply, they will arrange accommodation in the military area, so I don’t have to drive there. In addition, if I go out, I should be able to apply to use the car in the military right?” Stella Grace asked.
Jasper Milton nodded. “I almost forgot about it.”
After a while, they arrived at the door of Soldier 108.
Before she entered the room, she heard cries and noises coming from inside.Text © owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
Stella Grace had a bad feeling in her heart. She unfastened the seat belt and followed Jasper Milton in.
“Goldie put down the knife. If you die, what should Mom do? Mom only has one son.” The mother of Soldier 108 cried.
Jasper Milton rushed into the room.
Stella Grace saw a man on the bed pressing a knife against his neck. He was very emotional and his eyes were red.
He had lost both his legs.
“No. 108 what are you doing? Put down your knife,” Jasper Milton snapped.
When No. 108 realized the Chief’s presence, he paused but did not put down his knife. “I am now disabled. Why should I still be alive?”
“Soldier are no cowards. Even if you’ve broken your hands and feet, you don’t have the right to end your life.” Jasper Milton said in a low voice and walked towards No. 108.
No. 108 raised his chin and the knife was about to penetrate into his skin. “Don’t come over. I don’t have legs. What else can I contribute to the country? I don’t want to drag my wife down. She has only been married to me for three months. From now on, her life will never be happy.”
“Don’t mention her. She proposed to divorce you. Why do you still think about her?” No. 108’s mother said sadly.
Jasper Milton had a rough idea of what was going on.
After the surgery on No. 108, he strongly demanded to go home from the military hospital. Perhaps it was for this wife.
Now, his wife’s request for divorce probably upset him.
“Where’s his wife? Call her over,” Jasper Milton said coldly.
“She refused to come. She said that she wouldn’t come if we weren’t divorced yet. This ungrateful woman, except for 200, 000 dollars of betrothal gifts, it is almost all of my family’s savings.” The mother of No. 108 said angrily and sadly.
“Where is she now?” Jasper Milton asked.
“She’s living in No. 20 Sunflower Village. The village next door,” said No. 108’s mother.
“No. 108! Pick up your blood, sweat, and tears. Don’t let a woman look down on you. I’ll go there now,” Jasper Milton said sharply. Then, he turned around and walked out of the door.
Stella Grace followed him out.
“Didn’t the wife of No. 108 get pregnant? She wants to divorce even when she is pregnant?” Stella Grace was puzzled.
“Let’s go and have a look first.” Jasper Milton adjusted the navigation.
The neighboring village was not far away, they arrived in five minutes.
Jasper Milton saw that the door was closed and knocked on the door.
An old lady opened the door.
“I’m the leader of Goldie. I’m here to see Goldie’s wife.” Jasper Milton explained the purpose of her visit.
“Yuki doesn’t want to see anyone.” The old lady said with a reluctant look.
“Didn’t she want to divorce? I’m here to talk to her about these things,” Jasper Milton said coldly.
“Let him in,” said Goldie’s wife.
Jasper Milton entered the room.
Goldie’s wife stood in front of Jasper Milton and said, “You are Goldie’s leader.”
“Yes.”
“I want a divorce.” Goldie’s wife said directly.
“Without legs, it doesn’t mean that you can’t be happy. He’s a special soldier, so his physical strength won’t be a problem,” Jasper said vaguely.
The eyes of the golden wife reddened. “He and I have been married for three months. Except for the wedding night, he has never returned home.”
“Now he has time to be at home.”
“Do you want me to accompany a man with a disabled body? I don’t want to. Others will laugh at me.” The Goldie daughter-in-law asked firmly.
Jasper Milton looked at her deeply and said, “You cannot ask for a divorce from a military marriage unless soldiers are seriously ill. Your husband is a hero, and he is the pillar of the country. You can’t divorce him.”
“But he can go to hell. I’m free as long as he’s dead. I’m only 21 years old. There’s no need for me to waste my youth on a cripple like him!” said Goldie’s wife coldly.
Stella Grace felt a chill run down her spine.
She looked at the belly of Goldie’s wife and said, “Don’t forget that you still have a baby in your belly.”
“I’ve already killed the baby. Why should I give birth to a good-for-nothing? If I give birth to his child, I’ll be doomed for the rest of my life.” Goldie’s wife said cruelly.
Stella Grace was about to slap her.
What she had killed, was her own flesh and blood. Such a woman was not worthy of Goldie.
“What is the condition for you to not divorce?” Jasper Milton negotiated. “You can bring it up.”
Goldie’s wife paused for a moment and asked, “How much can you pay for the compensation?”
“How much money do you want me to compensate?” Jasper Milton asked.
“Two million, it must be two million. A penny less, I will divorce.” The wife roared loudly.
“I will compensate for Goldie with two million dollars. In addition, I will give a pension to his parents. If you don’t divorce, you will also pay for the pension. Now come with me to see the Goldie. He needs your care. And I hope that he can go to the military hospital to continue the treatment.” Jasper Milton said in a low voice and turned around.
When Goldie’s wife heard that there were two million dollars, she followed Jasper Milton out of the door. “Will you really compensate two million dollars?”
“I have no reason to lie to you,” Jasper Milton said coldly.
“Then I won’t divorce. Goldie will listen to me. I’ll ask him to go to the military hospital,” said Goldie’s wife, changing her previous attitude.
They drove back.
When Goldie saw his wife’s return, he let go of his hand and dropped the knife on the bed.
“Okay, we won’t divorce. Let’s go to the military hospital. I’ll take care of you,” said Goldie’s wife.
Goldie smiled and looked gratefully at Jasper Milton. “Thank you, Chief.”
“I have arranged for someone to take you to the hospital. In addition, the compensation will be given within a month. Get some rest.” Jasper Milton simply said, turned around, and left.
In the car.
Stella Grace saw that Jasper Milton was in a heavy mood.
She understood his feelings.
Goldie was his soldier, and he should be very sad.
“Goldie’s wife is not worthy of Goldie. Perhaps, it’s not bad to divorce each other. It’s an opportunity for them to be separated.” Stella Grace said with deep understanding.
“Goldie cares about his wife very much. Even if this wife is bad, it’s what he wants. I can’t make decisions for him because of my own opinion. All I can do is to fulfill his wish, Stella.” Jasper Milton looked at Stella Grace and held her hand.
Stella Grace saw the pain in his eyes.
“What’s wrong?”
“You cannot ask for a divorce from a military marriage. Once we get married, we will be together for the rest of our lives. I swear that I won’t let you down for the rest of my life. In exchange, I want your real love.” Jasper Milton said seriously.
That’s right.
You cannot ask for a divorce from a military marriage.
If she were to be with him, it would be impossible for her to be separated from him.
Stella had fallen into another man’s arms because she was hurt, she figured she might not have thought things through.
However, soldiers were known to be disciplined. If he stuck by his own rules, she would never leave him behind.
She had to settle down and think about it carefully…
