Chapter 646

At this moment, a series of noisy footsteps came from afar.

They could vaguely hear the sounds of an argument. “Miss Jones, Mr. David specially instructed that

you are not allowed to step into Trinisia garden. Please don’t make things difficult for us.”

“Get out of the way!” Marina shouted coldly. “Trinisia garden is my mother’s house. When did it become

David’s turn to tell me what to do? All of you, get out of my way! Otherwise, I’ll break your legs!”

In the living room, Old Mrs. Jones heard her voice and frowned imperceptibly. She raised her hand and

tugged at the corner of her shirt. She said casually, “Let her in.”

“Yes,” said Rosie.

After a short while, Marina walked in from outside. “Mother, do you know what David has done?”

“Then tell me. What did he do?” Old Mrs. Jones glanced at Marina, her eyes flickering with an unknown

dark light.

Marina met Old Mrs. Jones’s turbid eyes and her heart tightened as if it was being pinched.

She took a deep breath and continued, “He actually openly covered up for Rachel and created perjury,

causing the Cruise Group to be closed down. Richard and his daughter were also taken away for

investigation. I originally thought that he was just fooling around with Rachel on a whim, but I didn’t

expect him to be so ridiculous for a woman!

“David is the Jones family’s head, but his actions are so ridiculous now. If news gets out, won’t it

embarrass the Jones family? As for Rachel, Mother, don’t be deceived by her obedient and sensible

appearance. She relies on your doting and does evil with David. If this continues, she will embarrass

the Jones family sooner or later!”

Old Mrs. Jones picked up the cup and took a sip. When she put it down, she said unhurriedly, “Does

she do evil with David?”

“That’s right.” Marina was so anxious to slander Rachel that she did not notice Old Mrs. Jones’s

meaningful tone at all. “You don’t know how arrogant she was at the police station last night. She relied

on David’s support. Not only did she attack the police, but she also accused the Cruise family of hiring

someone to kill her. Now, the Cruise family’s miserable outcome is all her doing!”

Hearing this, Rosie looked up at her.

Miss Jones had really become more and more ridiculous over the years. No wonder she was not well-

liked in the family.

“So

you returned to Seaxas overnight and went to the police station to uphold justice?” Old Mrs. Jones

asked lightly.

Her tone was calm and slow, making it impossible to guess her emotions.

Marina could not help but be stunned. Her eyes flickered slightly.

Initially, she thought that she would be able to hide her whereabouts after sneaking back. She did not

expect Old Mrs. Jones to know her whereabouts like the back of her hand.

Marina picked up the coffee that Rosie handed her and took a sip. After thinking for a moment, she

said. slowly, “I was just being kind. I thought that Rachel was David’s woman after all, and we would be

family in the future, but who would have thought that she would look down on me and even mock me? I

lost all my face!”

Old Mrs. Jones snorted without hiding anything. “I’m just afraid that you’re hiding a vicious heart under

your kindness!”

“Mom, you…” Marina looked at her in shock.

Old Mrs. Jones’s face suddenly darkened, and there seemed to be a layer of ice between her

eyebrows. “I’m old, but I’m not so muddle-headed that I can’t tell right from wrong. I can’t let you distort

the truth!”

These words were clearly biased toward David and Rachel.

“Rac-Rae is usually such a docile and obedient girl. But she was forced to severely injure someone. It

could be seen that she was really forced into a corner. Instead of reflecting on how arrogant the Cruise

family is. you blame Rae-Rae for being ruthless! I’m curious about what benefits the Cruise family gave

you that made you so biased!”

Upon hearing this, Marina secretly gritted her teeth. “Even if the Cruise family went too far, wasn’t

Rachel the one who provoked them first? She exposed Olivia’s scandal at the engagement banquet of

the Cruise family and the Smith family and pushed the Cruise family to the center of attention. The

Cruise family was criticized and made a fool of themselves. If it weren’t for this, why would the Cruise

family use such. à vicious method to deal with her?

“Besides, the Cruise family’s scheme didn’t succeed. Why can’t we turn a big matter into a small one?”

“Shut up!” Old Mrs. Jones shouted angrily. She grabbed the cup beside her and smashed it at Marina’s

feet. “What kind of nonsense are you talking about?”

The

cup shattered, and hot coffee splashed everywhere. It was so hot that Marina hurriedly bounced up

from the chair.

“You want to turn a big matter into a small one just because the Cruise family’s scheme didn’t succeed.

Then I want to ask you. If it succeeds, what should we do?” Old Mrs. Jones’s eyes were filled with

anger, and her words were terrifyingly intimidating. “Are you going to clap and cheer with them? Don’t

think I don’t know what you’ve done!”

Marina felt guilty and did not dare to say another word.

However, since Old Mrs. Jones was angry, she did not intend to let Marina go easily.

You clearly know that there’s a grudge between Olivia and Rae-Rae, but you became Olivia’s

godmother. Are you deliberately trying to compete with Rae-Rae? You used Olivia to deal with Rae-

Rae and event used your connections to pave the way for the Cruise Group. You intended to annex the

Cruise family and enter the market of Seaxas. Your plan was really good!”

Every word was like ice to Marina’s heart. The color on her face faded bit by bit, leaving only a pale

face.

She thought that no one would know what she had done. She did not expect Old Mrs. Jones to know

everything.

“Kneel down!” Old Mrs. Jones scolded coldly.

Upon hearing this, Marina looked up at Old Mrs. Jones in disbelief, his eyes filled with disbelief.

“Mom…”

“Shut up!” Old Mrs. Jones interrupted her sternly. “Something happened to Rae-Rae. I didn’t expect

you to help her, but you hit her when she was down because of an outsider. You even dared to cause

trouble outside! How did I give birth to such a st*pid daughter like you?”

Upon hearing this, Marina’s face darkened. Suddenly, she sneered. “That’s right. You really shouldn’t

have given birth to me back then! Or rather, you should have strangled me to death after giving birth to

me! When I was young, because I was a girl, I was always bullied by my brothers and was not liked at

home. When I grew up, my brothers fought for power and even tried to please the Elders to sacrifice

me. Have they ever thought about my feelings all these years?

my heart, “It’s said that a mother knows her daughter best. I thought you could understand the pain in

but to my surprise, you didn’t understand me or support me! If you were willing to stand by my side and

protect me back then, would I have been forced to this extent by them and make a living in Seaxas?”

“You!” Old Mrs. Jones’s eyes were red as she looked at Marina. Disappointment and pain flashed

across her eyes. Her chest heaved up and down violently as she gritted her teeth and scolded, “Get

lost! Get out of here!”
