"Do you want to go back to your own home?"

With a grimace, Joseph replied, "Then you'd have to bury my body tomorrow."

Speechless, Charles glanced at him from the mirror. "Tell me, where do you want to go?"

It took Joseph a while to reply. He raised his head as he hesitated if he would really say what was on his mind. "Charles, please send me to Daisy's house."

"You... How could she want you after you divorced her?" It was absurd to want to come home to his ex wife! Joseph had hurt her enough; he couldn't come in and out of her life whenever he wanted to.

When Charles mentioned the divorce, Joseph began to cry again. "I just think you are the only ones who genuinely care for me. Except you, only Daisy is good to me. If you all abandon me, I will die. Open the door. I'll jump out of the car. I want to die."

One moment, Joseph was wiping his tears, and then he was banging the car door like a child.

"Jay, check where Daisy is living now." It was impossible for Charles to take Joseph home. For him, it was a sacred place which only belonged to him, Nancy and the children.

"Okay."

Soon, Jay fou

know women better than I do." A small smile appeared on Jay's face.

"You seem to be in a good mood now." Seeing Jay smiling and laughing, Charles couldn't help but tease him.

"Oh... I have forgotten it for a short while. But you reminded me of that problem again. Are you still my good friend?" Gradually, Jay's smile faded and his face darkened.

"I am only saying this because I am your good friend. As a man, can you just pour your heart out and say everything you want to say? Communicate with Doris to evaluate your feelings. Then everything will be back to normal, right? Why do you have to make yourself miserable? It's not a big deal," Charles said with a smile.

The feeling of oppression came back. Jay only lowered his head and kept quiet.

"Go home and give it a try with Doris. If it doesn't work, we will figure it out." The more Charles tried to convince him, the more depressed he felt.

What should he say? Could he tell Charles that he had already tried it with Doris but it didn't work? He just couldn't get through his psychological problem.

Well, maybe he was just not trying hard enough.
