Chapter 24 Aaron
In her memory, her mom was elegant, soft, and charming, and was the gentlest person in the world.
Her mom would hold her and read her books. She would teach her knowledge in the gentlest voice and
tell her stories. And her dad, who was reading the newspaper nearby, would look over lovingly from
time to time,
Bang-
The happy scenes were suddenly shattered by something, and fragments flew everywhere. Jazmine
grabbed around in panic but was unable to catch anything.
Mean curses reached her ears.
She gradually came back to her senses. The sad music in the hall even made the delicate flowers look
hideous.
Her mom continued to scream in a loud and sharp voice. Her mom told her to kill herself.
Jazmine slowly turned her head, and everything she saw was red. She blinked, and something flowed
down her cheeks. Her mother’s expression was so ferocious.
Jennie held Marin back with all her might, not allowing her to hurt Jazmine in the slightest. However,
because she couldn’t be in two places at a time, she could not take care of Jazmine who was injured.
From afar, she saw Jazmine lying there motionlessly with red tears flowing out of the comers of her
eyes. Jennie cried out worriedly.
“Jazmine, get up. The floor is cold.”
Jazmine struggled to get up, her hands folding back in a weird way. She was unable to use any
strength.
This was because it was dislocated. She only glanced at it, her expression indifferent, as if she could
not feel pain.
In the coffin.
Robert’s corpse was inside. The lid was not on the coffin. His face was pale, and his eyes were wide
open. Despite the embalmer’s efforts, the corpse that had been smashed into pieces still looked
terrifying and desolate,
Jazmine stared at it for a long time before she suddenly laughed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHer laugh made the two people who were pulling at each other stop. They stared at her with a
complicated expression.
Jazmine laughed for a long time until her voice was so hoarse that she couldn’t laugh anymore. Only
then did she speak in a hoarse voice.
“This is not my father.”
Her despair was replaced with certainty. When she looked up again, Jennie clearly saw that those
bloodshot eyes were filled. with surprise and excitement.
She really believed that her father was not dead.
Jennie’s heart jumped.
When Robert died, she had just arrived. She watched helplessly as he fell off the tall building. The
rescuers were late. He hit the ground head–first and died on the spot.
She contacted the funeral home and drove Marin to claim the body and other stuff. And the embalmer
was her friend.
The embalmer had said that she had never seen a more miserable death.
Jazmine was sure that it was not Robert only because she could not accept her father’s death deep
down.
Jennie felt sorry for Jazmine. She walked over and gently hugged her. “There is still a wound on your
forehead. Let me take you back to the hospital to treat it.”
This time, Jazmine followed her obediently.
Behind them, Marin let out a desperate cry.
In the hospital.
Jazmine sat there in a daze, surrounded by doctors and nurses. Everyone was silent. After they fixed
her hands and cleaned and bandaged her wounds, she still sat there expressionlessly.
It was extremely creepy.
The doctor had no choice but to advise Jennie to contact a psychiatrist.
The next moment, two bodyguards came in and drove everyone out of the ward.
Jennie wanted to return to the ward. “What are you doing? Let me in.”
The bodyguards made sure she couldn’t get in.
The sound of footsteps came from behind her. The next second, she heard gloating laughter. “I will get
her a psychiatrist. Ms. Fletcher, you can go home now.”
She was never a pushover. Jennie turned around and grabbed Yoselin by the collar. “You bitch, you
wouldn’t want to hurt her.”
The two bodyguards were extremely fast. One on the left and one on the right, they held her back.
Yoselin smiled sinisterly.
She patted the invisible dust off her body and frowned in disgust. “I’ve already done it. What can you do
to me? Don’t forget, I am the apple of Giancarlo’s eye. How dare you talk to me like this? Do you want
to end up like the Gardner family?”
Jennie was furious. She grabbed her high heels and hurled them at Yoselin. “Go to hell, bitch.”
Yoselin dodged and glared at her with a ferocious expression. “From today onwards, you won’t be able
to see Jazmine again.”
Jennie was thrown out of the hospital by the bodyguards.
In the president’s office of the Tapia Group.
Knock, knock.
A deep and low voice sounded, “Come in.”
The sound of high–heeled shoes hitting the floor was particularly crisp. Giancarlo didn’t look away from
the computer screen at all. Owen, who came in, felt nervous and looked at Jennie timidly.
The daughter of the Fletcher family, who never cared about her family business, suddenly came to the
Tapia Group to talk about cooperation, which was odd enough. But their boss actually agreed to meet
her.
It just so happened that the scene of the two people meeting each other was so strange.
“I am not material for business. You know what I am here for. The Fletcher Group will give you three
more percent of the
profit and let me take care of Jazmine.”
Giancarlo’s fingers stopped. His sharp eyes swept across Jennie’s face. His mouth curled into a
mocking smile. He did not speak at all. No one could understand the meaning hidden in his dark eyes.
Owen felt even more uneasy.
He thought to himself, “The young lady of the Fletcher family really did not know how to do business.
Three percent are a lot
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmto others. But it is nothing to the Tapia Group. If she doesn’t raise her offer soon, she will be thrown out
by the president in the next second.”
Jennie was a little anxious. She had a feeling that she was doing business with a demon
In her heart, she knew that whoever was anxious would lose. If she wanted to win, she had to keep her
cool.
Three percent were already a lot. She just wanted to buy the opportunity to take care of Jazmine.
If Jazmine was really worthless in his heart, he would agree to this deal.
The silence lasted for a long time, and it became suffocating.
In the end, Jennie had to accept the fact that she was no match for him.
Jennie was the first to speak. “Robert is dead. You have obtained the Gardner Group. Jazmine is of no
use to you. It will do you no good if she dies.”
“Even a child knows if Mrs. Tapia is significant to the Tapia Group. You don’t need me to tell you the
answer.”
That was, the price she offered didn’t deserve his time.
“Four percent.” She gritted her teeth.
Giancarlo sneered. “Am I a beggar to you?”
“Five percent.” Jennie gritted her teeth.
Glancarlo withdrew his gaze. “Does your father know about your visit?”
Jennie was anxious. “It’s our family affairs. I will handle it properly. Just tell me if you want this deal.”
“See the guest out.”
Jennie was stunned. Who would do business like this? He didn’t even want the money that was given
to him. It was clear that he wanted Jazmine to suffer.
“Jazmine doesn’t owe you anything. You can’t hurt her like this.”
Owen politely took her out.
The next morning-
In Jazmine’s ward, there was an uninvited guest..
“Jazmine, you don’t look very well.”
A group of doctors and nurses stood by his side, respectfully and carefully waiting for orders. Jazmine
sat there in a daze and did not reply. The attending doctor hurriedly stood out to reply.
“Mr. Tapia, Ms. Gardner’s not very stable mentally, and she is injured. So she looks unwell, but in fact,
she’s alright.”
