Chapter: 3969
He punched in Albert's number, voice tense and furious, "Mr. Waston, I'm choosing Jessie."

Albert's smile was faint.

He replied, "But didn't you just break up with Jessie?"

Upon hearing that, Axell's complexion went pale. He was about to speak but Albert had already ended the call.

Feeling lightheaded post-call, Axell gripped the phone.

He lingered with the phone a bit before dropping a WhatsApp message to Jessie.

To his surprise, Jessie had blocked him.

He tried adding her as a friend again but, after a patient wait of over ten minutes, he got no response.

Axell felt a mix of embarrassment and irritation.

Did she really hold him in such low regard?

Last night, he had been steamed and had considered breaking up with her but, by morning, he was full of regrets.

She couldn't just cut him off Like that.

Frustrated, Axell resolved to talk to Jessie after work.

During breakfast, seeing his glum expression, Monica burst out, "You look terrible! Doesn't your girlfriend take care of you?"

“Mom, I'm grown up. I can handle myself." Axell chuckled wryly.

"You're a doctor while she just runs a small business. She's got more free time and less money. Shouldn't she be taking care of you?

Make her do more chores. Don't spoil her. I won't let you marry a slacker."

Axell kept the breakup from Monica.

He brushed it off. "She'll pitch in more once we're married."

Monica seemed relieved. Then she cautioned, "But don't let her run the show."
