[JD] Today's Dior also feels that there is something wrong with the world
Chapter 20. 20 Dior and Shiguimian's karmic meeting.
Just because his seriously ill mother inadvertently mentioned "I may not see you get married", John didn't cheer up until the day of Dior's wedding.
He went to the wedding venue unhappy and chose to sit in the backmost seat.
It stands to reason that he shouldn't have come.John knew that Dior's invitation was to let him stop pestering her, it was just a kind of alienation, but it was a girl he had liked for four years, no matter what he couldn't give up completely - he even...had other expect.
Dirty and dark expectations that some legal professionals shouldn't have.
——How can a very attractive woman face only one man in her life?
Besides, isn't it an unwritten tradition in the upper class of Great Britain that noble wives and husbands play their own way?if she wants.As long as she wants to...
Once is fine.
It was not too early or too late for John to take his seat, and some invited guests from the small town just followed him and filed into the church.They all looked very young, like Jonathan's friends in the small town.
"Look at what I said." One of the yellow-haired people complacently gestured to the people in the same group, "I said a long time ago that they will definitely get married, look!"
"So Dior is really a child bride?"
"Isn't it...? Didn't Duke Joestar adopt Sister Dior as his daughter?" Another person replied, "Should JOJO and Sister Dior become lovers from righteous siblings and then get married?"
"Oh——!!!" The rest of the people began to boo, "JOJO, this bad guy must rely on himself and Miss Dior to live together to win people's hearts!"
"However... Although Ms. Dior has a beautiful head, it is true that JOJO dares to talk about love with Ms. Dior."
"...You are so right!"
The young people sat in the back of the middle, and as long as John was willing and settled down to listen, he could hear their conversation clearly.
The boys started from the story of Dio ruthlessly bullying Jonathan when he was a child, all the way to the poor jaw dropped when Joestar's servant handed out the wedding invitation.John had been listening in silence, thinking, look, so many people don't think Dior and Jonathan are going to marry, so are they really a match?
The topic of the chat quickly returned to this wedding.
Someone mentioned the bridesmaid, "At first I thought it would be some good friend of Miss Dior who was in the upper class to be the bridesmaid, but I didn't expect it to be Elena. I also thought that I could meet some noble lady."
"Think about it with your brain that is about the size of a mite, and you will know that it must be Alina. Well, besides Alina, do you think there is any other girl who can hang out with Miss Dior for so long. Miss Dior still has her head I personally cut her hair. Besides, how can there be any young lady who would be willing to be a bridesmaid?" The voice of retort continued, "Besides, do you think Elena is a poor girl? It's true that her father is a doctor, but Dr. Banderuton is a doctor who has assets and can travel all over England. I heard from my father that Dr. Banderuton has inherited a rich inheritance from his ancestors, not to mention that he now runs a hospital. Banderuton's family With only one child, Alina, you may not know how much dowry you will take with you in the future!"
John's heart skipped a beat.
"How do you know so clearly, are you secretly in love with Alina?"
"I'm not! I just happened to know these things! To be honest, before the invitation was posted, I always thought that JOJO would marry Alina because they played so well."
"You think too much, isn't Elena willing to play with JoJo because of Dior's head?"
"Eh, I don't know much about this. Oh, anyway, it must be right to hand over the mission of the bridesmaid to Alina!"
"But didn't you hear that Miss Dior wants to enter alone? How should Elina enter?"
"Back door, go from the back. Although the dirt road is difficult to walk, won't JoJo's college roommate wait for her at the back door? He should help Alina."
"JOJO is here!!" The young people who were chatting enthusiastically stopped the topic immediately, and they looked eagerly at one of the protagonists of the wedding.John glanced at the corner of Jonathan's mouth that curved in happiness, got up and went outside for air.
The best man hadn't taken his place at the back door, and John walked the hard way twice.
After waiting for about an hour, he accurately supported Alina who almost tripped because of a small stone.
<<
Mr. Banderuton is a doctor with excellent medical skills. He is usually very busy, but after the marriage of his daughter Alina and John was settled, Dr. Banderuton began to frequently go to another city to serve as a doctor. John's seriously ill mother was diagnosed and treated.
However, the severity of the disease and the fact that it had been a long time since the first attack made it impossible to recover. Dr. Bandruton's efforts only allowed John's mother to barely attend her son's wedding ceremony.In the third month after the young couple got married, John's mother died of illness.
Problems in hastily arranged marriages are also revealed around this time.
John's temper began to grow more and more irritable, and he would stay out all night and come home very drunk the next morning.He still owes a lot of debt outside, but he has no intention of going out to work at all, and he doesn't even go to the law firm where he worked for a while. His boss has written several letters warning him, If you want to work as an assistant, you must come to work on time, but John is still unmoved.
At first Alina could understand that he was in a bad mood after he had just lost his mother, she would put blankets on John when he came back in the morning and fell asleep, she would make him delicious pie pads before he went out drinking, she would be in He held her firmly, wrapping his arms around his neck tenderly as he vented sexually.
Alina kept nourishing John like a trickle, and she even used the dowry to subsidize the foreign debts of the Jones family. For her decadent newlywed husband, she still had the same good expectations as before marriage.
It's just that after a long time, after countless conversations that turned out to be fruitless and even quarreled, Alina began to feel disappointed in John.She refuses to give the family another penny to plug the financial hole that the damn bankruptcy left.
In December, when every family was preparing for Christmas, John and Alina had another fierce quarrel. In the end, John, who was too alcoholic to control his emotions, slapped Alina by mistake.
That night, Elena left her wedding room with a suitcase and returned to her natal family's small town.
The image of a gentle and progressive gentleman that the other party showed when they were in love completely disappeared, and the feeling of dull pain on the face was the cruel and bloody reality. On the carriage returning to her hometown, she asked her again and again why she didn't open her eyes before the wedding See this person clearly.
She was slapped by John, and she seemed to be slapped by reality.
Alina gave up.
>>>
"So..." Jonathan hesitated, "You want to..."
"Divorce." Dio rolled his eyelids, threw out the word directly, and finished the sentence for Jonathan neatly.
Alina nodded solemnly, "I want to separate from him. Unless he repents, I won't talk to him again."
But divorce is an extremely disgraceful thing, not to mention the divorce proposed by the woman. Gender restrictions greatly increase the difficulty of successfully adjudicating the divorce case.
Looking at his friend's resolute expression, Jonathan became worried about her thoughts, "Could it be that John hasn't recovered from the grief of losing his mother? You know, alcohol can make a person lose his mind."
He tried his best to analyze the reasons for a man to do something to a woman from the perspective of kindness, although he also held a part of the negative attitude towards these reasons in his heart.Dio almost didn't laugh out loud when he looked at his frowning and troubled look, "Forget it, JOJO." She said, "Put away your stupid kindness that goes against your will, and look at the reality."
Jonathan gave her a disapproving look, as if to say: How can you say such things in front of Alina, don't you want to see your good friend and family happy?
Dio didn't bother to pay attention to him, and rolled his eyes in disgust.
"I think Dior is right." Alina clenched the glove in her hand, "Maybe these things do have the influence of alcohol, but in fact..."
In fact, some things were foreshadowed before John's mother died.
John has long stopped staring at her with fiery eyes like when he was in love. Although he will still talk about love after marriage and is still very gentle to her, girls are very sensitive, and the attitude of men has changed a little bit. , women will quickly notice the small cracks in this relationship.
Alina had been thinking about whether John's love for her had slowly faded with the reality of life.Thinking about it now, maybe from the beginning, John didn't love her as much as she imagined.
These things and these innermost thoughts, Elena was ashamed to speak to her friends.She didn't continue talking, just shook her head.
Facing such a frustrated friend, Jonathan could no longer say those words against his will to wish the happiness of another family, "Okay..." He thought for a while and said, "It's okay Alina, Dio and I will support You, you can do whatever you want, I will help you contact a law firm in London, if you need any help, please speak up!"
"Thank you JoJo."
After so many days, Elena finally showed a sincere smile again.
"Okay, be happy, my good friend!" Jonathan poured a cup of black tea for Alina, "Now is not the time to be sad, let us enjoy the coming Christmas! Wait for the old year to pass , you can completely get rid of these unhappy things!"
——On the third day after Alina returned to the town, John also chased her over.He came to pray for Alina's forgiveness, but his bad behavior made the Banderutons furious. They refused to tell Elena's whereabouts, only saying that their daughter was not at home—to avoid being entangled by John again, Alina stayed at Joestar Manor with her two good friends.
"I learned how to make maple biscuits before! If there is maple syrup here, please let me show it off!" Alina cooperated with Jonathan's words, and happily moved out her new craft.
"Maple syrup?" Jonathan recalled whether there was anything related to maple syrup in the food he tasted recently, and then nodded, "It seems that there is! Ask Lucy later!"
Starting with maple syrup, the conversation went from dessert to Christmas dinner.
Dior was sitting by the window, basking in the sun quietly and drinking afternoon tea. The chatter between Jonathan and Elena became louder after a while. She glanced in the direction of the two and put the cup back into the porcelain cup with a snap. Pad.
"Elena." She just couldn't see the two people chatting happily.Dio picked up the previous matter very badly, "If you want a divorce, you can only sue on the grounds of adultery or violence. But John only hit you once, which is not up to the standard of violence. You Was he caught committing adultery with someone?"
The atmosphere that finally warmed up was brought back to winter by Dior's simple words.
"...No." Alina's mouth dropped weakly, "There is no other way..."
"No." Dio said, "In fact, your situation does not constitute a condition for a lawsuit at all. On the contrary, your bold move of leaving your family behind and running back is very easy to be exploited. Once John slanders you for eloping with some man Traitor, if you bring these evidences to court, you will be shamed in the newspapers.”
Jonathan asked, "What about the separation?"
"How much more lenient do you think the judgment conditions for separation are compared to those for divorce? Ignorant Mr. Joestar." Dio raised an eyebrow at Jonathan.
Except for this time, Dior would only call Jonathan "Mr. Joestar" on the bed, which is considered a humorous name. In this case, he was suddenly pulled out, and Jonathan pursed the corners of his mouth and stopped talking.
"But it's not impossible to try. After the "Marriage Procedure Law" was promulgated, there are no examples of women who have successfully divorced. Even if your evidence and allegations are not enough, you can try to bribe the judge of the civil divorce court, or..." Seeing Alina's sad expression, Dio twitched the corner of his mouth viciously, "After a woman divorces, she should never think about getting married again. Divorce means that she will live alone from now on. If you only pursue a life alone, you are completely You can kill John without anyone noticing, right?"
Elena's terrified expression greatly pleased Dio—she knew that although John's status in Elena's heart was already very low, the kind-hearted Alina would never think of letting him go to hell.
These malicious words not only startled Alina, but also made Jonathan frown, "Dior." He called Dio's name in a low voice, "How could you so easily..."
"It's just a joke." Dio smiled, "You know, I'm a law student, and life is just a word or a symbol in my eyes, they are pale and meaningless-I mean, so that just now It's just a joke."
Only then did Jonathan's brows loosen slowly, and he muttered in a low voice, "This is not funny at all..."
Although he knew that Dior had a mentality of contempt for everything since he was a child, but to show naked|naked|naked malice towards people and life like this...
It was the first time he met.
<<
In 1857, the Matrimonial Causes Act was enacted and a civil divorce court was established in London to rule on separations and divorces.
After Christmas, the well-trained servants of Joestar's family began to travel frequently between London and Joestar Manor.
Jonathan promised his good friend to help her, and he kept his word.On the basis of my own efforts, I also asked my wife who is studying law to help me with ideas behind the scenes.
John knew Elena's whereabouts, and he also knew from the movements of Joestar's servants that she was planning to divorce him. Since then, he would go to the gate of Joestar Manor almost every day and look inside. Deliver the visiting letter and the letter to Alina.
All the visiting letters were thrown away by the housekeeper, but the letter was delivered to Alina in good condition, but she never opened it to read it.
Another thing Dior found very funny was that Elena left those letters.Dior thinks that although Elena is decisive, she still has a little bit of expectation and fantasy for John in her heart-to be honest, John has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and after so long, Ellie Na is easy to soften her heart, how much of the previous grievances can be left?
This marriage is inseparable.
Dio happily polished his nails, saw Jonathan frowning at the letter from London, and called JoJo an idiot in his heart.
The intuition of the lucky ones has always been accurate, but Dior didn't expect that the opportunity for the two not to divorce was actually a new arrival.
Probably in the second week after officially starting to contact the London law firm, Alina found out that she was pregnant.
The heart that was already very hesitant was even more wavering after the appearance of the fetus. Elena opened all the letters sent by John that night and read them all.
She saw John the next day.John is very happy to be a father, and he promises her that he will work hard, pay off his debts, and raise the family.
Alina thought for a whole day, and finally nodded.
She forgave John and promised to give him another chance.
The process of filing a lawsuit was interrupted, but Jonathan didn't have a word of complaint.He hoped John was genuinely repentant, and he was happy to see his good friend happy again.
"It's just that Paul is so pitiful." Just after a hearty sexual affair, he rubbed Dio's neck contentedly, leaving wet kisses there one after another. While embracing happiness, he couldn't help but think of his roommate, "He also has a crush on Alina, and I was thinking that if Alina can get a divorce, I'll bring them together - God, luckily I haven't had time to write to Paul, otherwise he will be disappointed again .”
Dio felt hot, and she pushed Jonathan away impatiently.
"I suggest you write it now, as long as Paul doesn't mind the children brought by divorced women." Dio snorted, and Jonathan was taken aback. He stopped his mouth and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Literally." Dio yawned, "How long do you think you can last in a playful house-playing game? Stupid Mr. Joestar."
Jonathan felt that Dior was talking nonsense again.
She has always been so mean-spirited, her mouth is not forgiving, and she always says some disappointing things.
"Don't talk like that." Jonathan pinched Dio's waist, "They both have children, even for the sake of children, John will not make the same mistakes again!"
Dio rolled his eyes and kicked Jonathan, "Sleep!"
This after-the-fact conversation was quickly forgotten by Jonathan, so when he saw Alina again more than two months later, the young Mr. Joestar was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
——John stopped drinking, started to work actively, and was very considerate to his pregnant wife.He did what he said, and he changed a lot of things that had led to quarrels, but Alina found that John's behavior was a bit abnormal-he would wait until late at night in the name of working overtime, and sometimes He would stay in the attic for hours at a time and tell Alina not to bother him.
Alina understands his busyness and his need for private space, but she still finds that John may be preparing for something in these little things.
She tried to act like a baby, and tried to ask her husband, but whenever these things were brought up, John would look impatient and tell her not to ask with a cold attitude.
There was a week of cold war between them, and what ended the cold war was not reconciliation, but one quarrel after another.
At the end of the quarrel, John couldn't restrain himself from hitting Alina again.
Alina, who was more than five months pregnant, was slapped to the ground. During the fall, her protruding belly hit the corner of the table, and blood gushed out between her legs.
If John had been late in calling the doctor, she would have had a miscarriage.
The weak fetus remained in the mother's body tenaciously, but something still disappeared from Elena's body.
Joestar's family contacted the law firm in London again, and Elena was taken home by Dr. Bandruton to recuperate, and then moved into Joestar Manor with complete conditions and a quiet environment at the invitation of Dior—— The manor can not only prevent Alina from being harassed by John, but also suitable for her to maintain her body.
This time Alina is determined to get a divorce, even if she is about to face the cruel reality of raising a child alone.
London responded quickly, and the lawyer who took over the case rushed to the place where the two lived and investigated the situation with the doctor who treated Alina that day.The lawyer also wrote to Joestar Manor, asking the client to prepare a statement of John's domestic violence.
Alina is raising a baby, she is already in great pain, if she is asked to recall what happened that day, it will undoubtedly aggravate her inner trauma.Facing the letter in front of him, Jonathan had a difficult time.
Then he took the letter and went to Dio, "Do you have to ask Elena's statement?"
"Hmm..." Dio just woke up from a nap, maybe she just woke up, and she felt a little dizzy.
"Is there any special situation where other people's testimony can be used instead of her statement?" Jonathan sat down beside the bed, holding Dior in his arms and showing her the letter.
Dio closed her eyes, she took a few deep breaths, and she still felt dizzy when she opened her eyes again—this bad feeling became more and more serious, she felt that her eyes were hazy, even though the weather was not hot, she still felt dizzy His whole body was so dry and hot that even his back was dripping with sweat.
"For example, the doctor who did emergency treatment for Elina, I think——Dio?" Jonathan was halfway through speaking, and suddenly noticed his wife's abnormality. He quickly lowered his head to look over, and the first thing he saw was Dio's pale face.She closed her eyes tightly, breathing rapidly, and looked very uncomfortable.
"Dior?! Dior?!" Jonathan didn't even respond to calling Dior several times. He was so anxious that he called the maid waiting outside, "Call Mr. Carter over! Hurry up!"
Mr. Carter arrived soon, and after a diagnosis by the family doctor, he told a piece of good news that shocked the entire Joestar family.
"Congratulations!" Mr. Carter smiled sincerely.
— Dio is pregnant.
—— TBC
He went to the wedding venue unhappy and chose to sit in the backmost seat.
It stands to reason that he shouldn't have come.John knew that Dior's invitation was to let him stop pestering her, it was just a kind of alienation, but it was a girl he had liked for four years, no matter what he couldn't give up completely - he even...had other expect.
Dirty and dark expectations that some legal professionals shouldn't have.
——How can a very attractive woman face only one man in her life?
Besides, isn't it an unwritten tradition in the upper class of Great Britain that noble wives and husbands play their own way?if she wants.As long as she wants to...
Once is fine.
It was not too early or too late for John to take his seat, and some invited guests from the small town just followed him and filed into the church.They all looked very young, like Jonathan's friends in the small town.
"Look at what I said." One of the yellow-haired people complacently gestured to the people in the same group, "I said a long time ago that they will definitely get married, look!"
"So Dior is really a child bride?"
"Isn't it...? Didn't Duke Joestar adopt Sister Dior as his daughter?" Another person replied, "Should JOJO and Sister Dior become lovers from righteous siblings and then get married?"
"Oh——!!!" The rest of the people began to boo, "JOJO, this bad guy must rely on himself and Miss Dior to live together to win people's hearts!"
"However... Although Ms. Dior has a beautiful head, it is true that JOJO dares to talk about love with Ms. Dior."

The topic of the chat quickly returned to this wedding.
Someone mentioned the bridesmaid, "At first I thought it would be some good friend of Miss Dior who was in the upper class to be the bridesmaid, but I didn't expect it to be Elena. I also thought that I could meet some noble lady."
"Think about it with your brain that is about the size of a mite, and you will know that it must be Alina. Well, besides Alina, do you think there is any other girl who can hang out with Miss Dior for so long. Miss Dior still has her head I personally cut her hair. Besides, how can there be any young lady who would be willing to be a bridesmaid?" The voice of retort continued, "Besides, do you think Elena is a poor girl? It's true that her father is a doctor, but Dr. Banderuton is a doctor who has assets and can travel all over England. I heard from my father that Dr. Banderuton has inherited a rich inheritance from his ancestors, not to mention that he now runs a hospital. Banderuton's family With only one child, Alina, you may not know how much dowry you will take with you in the future!"
John's heart skipped a beat.
"How do you know so clearly, are you secretly in love with Alina?"
"I'm not! I just happened to know these things! To be honest, before the invitation was posted, I always thought that JOJO would marry Alina because they played so well."
"You think too much, isn't Elena willing to play with JoJo because of Dior's head?"
"Eh, I don't know much about this. Oh, anyway, it must be right to hand over the mission of the bridesmaid to Alina!"
"But didn't you hear that Miss Dior wants to enter alone? How should Elina enter?"
"Back door, go from the back. Although the dirt road is difficult to walk, won't JoJo's college roommate wait for her at the back door? He should help Alina."
"JOJO is here!!" The young people who were chatting enthusiastically stopped the topic immediately, and they looked eagerly at one of the protagonists of the wedding.John glanced at the corner of Jonathan's mouth that curved in happiness, got up and went outside for air.

Mr. Banderuton is a doctor with excellent medical skills. He is usually very busy, but after the marriage of his daughter Alina and John was settled, Dr. Banderuton began to frequently go to another city to serve as a doctor. John's seriously ill mother was diagnosed and treated.

"So..." Jonathan hesitated, "You want to..."
"Divorce." Dio rolled his eyelids, threw out the word directly, and finished the sentence for Jonathan neatly.

But divorce is an extremely disgraceful thing, not to mention the divorce proposed by the woman. Gender restrictions greatly increase the difficulty of successfully adjudicating the divorce case.

In fact, some things were foreshadowed before John's mother died.

John knew Elena's whereabouts, and he also knew from the movements of Joestar's servants that she was planning to divorce him. Since then, he would go to the gate of Joestar Manor almost every day and look inside. Deliver the visiting letter and the letter to Alina.
All the visiting letters were thrown away by the housekeeper, but the letter was delivered to Alina in good condition, but she never opened it to read it.
Another thing Dior found very funny was that Elena left those letters.Dior thinks that although Elena is decisive, she still has a little bit of expectation and fantasy for John in her heart-to be honest, John has a good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and after so long, Ellie Na is easy to soften her heart, how much of the previous grievances can be left?
This marriage is inseparable.
Dio happily polished his nails, saw Jonathan frowning at the letter from London, and called JoJo an idiot in his heart.
The intuition of the lucky ones has always been accurate, but Dior didn't expect that the opportunity for the two not to divorce was actually a new arrival.
Probably in the second week after officially starting to contact the London law firm, Alina found out that she was pregnant.
The heart that was already very hesitant was even more wavering after the appearance of the fetus. Elena opened all the letters sent by John that night and read them all.
She saw John the next day.John is very happy to be a father, and he promises her that he will work hard, pay off his debts, and raise the family.
Alina thought for a whole day, and finally nodded.
She forgave John and promised to give him another chance.
The process of filing a lawsuit was interrupted, but Jonathan didn't have a word of complaint.He hoped John was genuinely repentant, and he was happy to see his good friend happy again.
"It's just that Paul is so pitiful." Just after a hearty sexual affair, he rubbed Dio's neck contentedly, leaving wet kisses there one after another. While embracing happiness, he couldn't help but think of his roommate, "He also has a crush on Alina, and I was thinking that if Alina can get a divorce, I'll bring them together - God, luckily I haven't had time to write to Paul, otherwise he will be disappointed again .”
Dio felt hot, and she pushed Jonathan away impatiently.
"I suggest you write it now, as long as Paul doesn't mind the children brought by divorced women." Dio snorted, and Jonathan was taken aback. He stopped his mouth and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Literally." Dio yawned, "How long do you think you can last in a playful house-playing game? Stupid Mr. Joestar."
Jonathan felt that Dior was talking nonsense again.
She has always been so mean-spirited, her mouth is not forgiving, and she always says some disappointing things.
"Don't talk like that." Jonathan pinched Dio's waist, "They both have children, even for the sake of children, John will not make the same mistakes again!"
Dio rolled his eyes and kicked Jonathan, "Sleep!"
This after-the-fact conversation was quickly forgotten by Jonathan, so when he saw Alina again more than two months later, the young Mr. Joestar was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.
——John stopped drinking, started to work actively, and was very considerate to his pregnant wife.He did what he said, and he changed a lot of things that had led to quarrels, but Alina found that John's behavior was a bit abnormal-he would wait until late at night in the name of working overtime, and sometimes He would stay in the attic for hours at a time and tell Alina not to bother him.
Alina understands his busyness and his need for private space, but she still finds that John may be preparing for something in these little things.
She tried to act like a baby, and tried to ask her husband, but whenever these things were brought up, John would look impatient and tell her not to ask with a cold attitude.
There was a week of cold war between them, and what ended the cold war was not reconciliation, but one quarrel after another.
At the end of the quarrel, John couldn't restrain himself from hitting Alina again.
Alina, who was more than five months pregnant, was slapped to the ground. During the fall, her protruding belly hit the corner of the table, and blood gushed out between her legs.
If John had been late in calling the doctor, she would have had a miscarriage.
The weak fetus remained in the mother's body tenaciously, but something still disappeared from Elena's body.
Joestar's family contacted the law firm in London again, and Elena was taken home by Dr. Bandruton to recuperate, and then moved into Joestar Manor with complete conditions and a quiet environment at the invitation of Dior—— The manor can not only prevent Alina from being harassed by John, but also suitable for her to maintain her body.
This time Alina is determined to get a divorce, even if she is about to face the cruel reality of raising a child alone.
London responded quickly, and the lawyer who took over the case rushed to the place where the two lived and investigated the situation with the doctor who treated Alina that day.The lawyer also wrote to Joestar Manor, asking the client to prepare a statement of John's domestic violence.
Alina is raising a baby, she is already in great pain, if she is asked to recall what happened that day, it will undoubtedly aggravate her inner trauma.Facing the letter in front of him, Jonathan had a difficult time.
Then he took the letter and went to Dio, "Do you have to ask Elena's statement?"
"Hmm..." Dio just woke up from a nap, maybe she just woke up, and she felt a little dizzy.
"Is there any special situation where other people's testimony can be used instead of her statement?" Jonathan sat down beside the bed, holding Dior in his arms and showing her the letter.
Dio closed her eyes, she took a few deep breaths, and she still felt dizzy when she opened her eyes again—this bad feeling became more and more serious, she felt that her eyes were hazy, even though the weather was not hot, she still felt dizzy His whole body was so dry and hot that even his back was dripping with sweat.
"For example, the doctor who did emergency treatment for Elina, I think——Dio?" Jonathan was halfway through speaking, and suddenly noticed his wife's abnormality. He quickly lowered his head to look over, and the first thing he saw was Dio's pale face.She closed her eyes tightly, breathing rapidly, and looked very uncomfortable.
"Dior?! Dior?!" Jonathan didn't even respond to calling Dior several times. He was so anxious that he called the maid waiting outside, "Call Mr. Carter over! Hurry up!"
Mr. Carter arrived soon, and after a diagnosis by the family doctor, he told a piece of good news that shocked the entire Joestar family.
"Congratulations!" Mr. Carter smiled sincerely.
— Dio is pregnant.
