Julie interrupted him directly and said angrily, “Don’t tell me such nonsense Jack, open your eyes and look at me, I am also highly educated and now you have forced me to be a shrew! I have endured you and tolerated you for so many years and now I really can’t bear it anymore. Since you are all right, let’s stop delaying each other in the future, you and I will go to Houston, we will divorce happily. What do you like to do after the divorce, how long does it take you to disappear, I won’t care!”
Jack did not expect that his always gentle wife would react so violently. In the past, his wife would also have conflicts with him. But that was basically whining, sulking and a few days of the cold war at most. It was the first time that it was so fierce, loud and scolding.
But Jack also knew in his heart that the reason why his wife was so rude must be because she was too worried about himself during this time. So he naturally didn’t have the slightest anger. So, he couldn’t wait to use Michaela’s rhetoric to whitewash himself.
After making up his mind, he quickly explained, “Julie, I…I have a reason for that…”
“The reason? What reason?” Julie asked angrily, “I haven’t known you, Jack, in your eyes, everything is more important than us! If someone dies in this area of New York, your mind will be gone, how can you take care of us two?”
Jack was at a loss for words. He’s not really good at words and even worse at lying. In the face of his wife’s fierce attack, he was a little confused for a while. Sometimes, the success or failure of things depends on whether you can stabilize your own dimensions and stabilize your rhythm.
Just like a speech, the same manuscript, if you can use your own rhythm to drive the audience it must be a success, but if your rhythm is disrupted by others, the result must be a failure and it may even evolve into shame.
