Chapter 1215 "It's up to you if you want to help or not. I never made any threats." Jasmine trembled angrily when Lorrie acted like she wasn't responsible. "But you did threaten me." "No, I didn't. If I really wanted to threaten you, I would've told Richard about it. Imagine if he knew you used his sperm to have this baby, do you think they'd let you off easily?" Jasmine wanted to stop Lorrie from saying more, but it was too late. Both Pearl and Richard heard everything clearly.
Knowing they had heard, Jasmine took a risk and pushed Lorrie hard.

"Now that you've spilled the beans," Jasmine said sharply, "Get out of my house now!" Even though Chester looked upset, he seemed to be familiar with these kinds of arguments. Lorrie looked at Jasmine with anger. "You'll regret this. Just wait, I'll make you suffer!" Then, she stormed out, slamming the door behind her.
Jasmine squatted down and held Chester's hand. "Please, stay away from that woman, okay?" Chester looked sad and said, "But I don't think she's a bad guy." "Do you understand what she just said? Can't you see what kind of person she is?" Jasmine realized how Lorrie had manipulated her son. Chester was usually so well-behaved. It was surprising to see him act this way.
Chester was too young to understand what was really happening. All he knew was that Lorrie treated him nicely, buying him tasty treats and even promising to take him to the amusement park if Jasmine agreed. He had never been to the amusement park because he was always hiding with his mother, so the thought of missing out on the amusement park made him even sadder, and he couldn't hold back his tears.
"I don't know what she did to make you hate her so much, but she's never been mean to me." Chester's words, soft but clear in the silence, made Jasmine so angry that she grabbed a feather duster, intending to discipline him.
Right before she could do anything, Pearl intervened and took the duster away. "No matter what, he's just a kid."
Pearl seemed shocked by everything but insisted that children shouldn't be ouldn't punished for adults Xmistakes.

"I'm sorry," she said, though it was late for apologies.
Then, she knelt down to talk to her son, trying to be gentle. "Chet, was wrong to try and hit you. Why don't you go play in your room for a bit, okay?"
Chester was young and didn't understand everything, but he sensed his mom needed to talk to Pearland Richard alone, "it's okay, Mom. I'm not blaming you," he said, showing maturity beyond his years. As he returned to his room, Jasmine turned to face Pearl and Richard and fell to her knees. Ashburn > X
