After thinking about it, he finally gritted his teeth and called the person he thought he would never take the initiative to call or even beg him.
The other party picked up the phone just after three rings. Before he could speak, he heard a cold snort.
"I thought you wouldn't call me. It seems that I underestimated her position in your heart."
"She's my wife. I don't want her to suffer any grievances,"
He defended instinctively.
"You believe her that much?"
A disdainful voice came.
"Yes, I believe her, unconditionally."
His voice was sure and firm.
"I beg you once..."
"Don't beg me. She's also my daughter-in-law, and I don't want my family to be gossiped about by outsiders."
Dad, on the other end of the phone, cut him off impatiently and threw a faint sentence at him.
James lowered his head and gripped the phone in his hand. Just as he was on the phone, he clearly heard a woman's voice over there.
