Chapter 362: Chapter 362: When She’s Angry, You Kneel
However, Kyle Keaton still relied on his last bit of rationality, not going hysterical in front of the old lady.
He just said, "I haven’t done anything wrong."
"If you haven’t done anything wrong, how could your wife have your luggage all packed up?"
The old lady, with the stance of someone who’s been through it all, tried to persuade Kyle Keaton.
"Listen to Grandma for once, when your wife thinks you’re wrong, you are wrong. The way for a couple to get along is: when she advances, you retreat; when she gets angry, you kneel."
Kyle Keaton: "..."
Why should he retreat?
And why should he kneel?
But he’s so exhausted.
He felt that saying even one more word now would make him so angry he might have a stroke.
So he silently picked up his suitcase and quietly turned to leave.
The old lady saw Kyle Keaton leaving with his suitcase and thought for a moment that he’d taken her words to heart, feeling very pleased.
"That’s right, just go out and stay for a while. In a few days, when your wife’s anger subsides, find a chance to coax her, and this matter will be over."
Under the old lady’s watchful gaze, Kyle Keaton gleefully set off with his "running away from home" grand prize.
But he didn’t check into a hotel or go to any of his other properties; instead, he moved directly into the Regalscape Group office.
Early the next day, when Miles Jacobs brought some contracts related to the Caelan Sea project to find Kyle Keaton, he was startled by the suitcase in the office and the messy clothes casually thrown on the sofa.
"Lord Keaton, why are you living in the office?"
It had already been a while since the Caelan Sea project was more or less finalized, so Kyle Keaton wasn’t frequently at The Jacobs Group’s office.
Any important contracts were personally delivered by Miles Jacobs to Regalscape Group.
So Miles Jacobs wasn’t sure what exactly had happened with Kyle Keaton to bring his luggage here.
He shouldn’t have asked, because immediately, it reminded Kyle Keaton of the indignity after catching the cheating last night, only to be gifted the "running away from home" package.
In an instant, his expression turned scary and menacing.
The look in his eyes towards Miles Jacobs was that of wanting nothing more than to quickly get rid of him.
Although this startled Miles Jacobs, it suddenly made him realize something.
"You weren’t kicked out of the house by Mrs. Keaton, were you?"
As soon as this question was raised, Kyle Keaton’s gaze instantly turned into a sharp blade, placed against Miles Jacobs’ neck.
Miles Jacobs internally wowed, he seemed to have accidentally hit the truth, didn’t he?
"Well, Lord Keaton, you might be inexperienced in relationships, so you probably don’t understand the concept of ’a couple who fights at the head of the bed will reconcile at the foot.’ No matter what mistakes you’ve made, your first step is to fix your attitude, properly apologize to Mrs. Keaton, and say some comforting words, and this matter will pass."
"If that doesn’t work, just buy some durian shells to kneel on, and Mrs. Keaton’s anger should quickly subside..."
Miles Jacobs, with the tone of someone who has seen it all, imparted his relationship view and old lessons to Kyle Keaton.
However, halfway through his words, Kyle Keaton’s voice, cold enough to make one’s scalp tingle, came through.
"Are you so sure the fault lies with me?"
Miles Jacobs became awkward immediately.
Actually, unless it was a matter of principle, it was an ancient truth that any fault by the woman usually had to be borne by the man.
Such men who keep insisting they’re not wrong often end up as single dogs!
He initially wanted to convey this age-old truth to Lord Keaton, but with that expression Lord Keaton was currently making as if he wanted to devour him, he didn’t dare to say it.
Thus, he followed along with Lord Keaton’s domineering mood and continued, "So it’s Mrs. Keaton’s fault? In that case, you mustn’t forgive her easily, make her realize the seriousness of her mistake, and have her come to you with three kowtows and nine bows for reconciliation."
Tsk tsk, he secretly took a supplementary class during the nine-year compulsory education, which is why he’s so excellent at saying the right things to the right people, and the right things to the right ghosts!
