Chapter 304

His mother was great!

But Mayor Cody sighed, "Let's back. I have something to say."

Such words sent shivers to Jenna.

She bit her lip and followed them to the living room.

For a moment, it was all silent.

Mayor Cody was a politician of rectitude who had never tackled the

event of arguing with a rude woman.

He looked at the girl who sat in the corner of the sofa and lowered her

head, seeming to make a big mistake.

And he didn't have the heart to criticize her because he knew Jenna

was polite and diligent, who was quiet though.

Thinking of the time she lived in his home, Mayor Cody felt a bit of

heartache for her.

He said, "Jenna, you have been in my home for some time. We know

you didn't have a good life before, thus we didn't force you to talk about

it. But the event today startled me. Can you explain it to us?"

Jenna's eyes were as red as a rabbit's. She subconsciously cast a look

at Brayden but then lowered her head, murmuring, “I... I'm adopted by

Aldo. He is nice to me, but his mom isn't. She wants me to leave him.

But I... I have no home, I don't know where I can go. I'm... I'm so sorry. I

will leave here tomorrow. It's all my fault... Sorry."

She didn't expect it to end like this.

But she knew that she was merely a guest of the Wright family. She

was an orphan without a mother and home. They had been so

benevolent to her that they had no reason to let her stay here.

Besides, she could only get them into trouble. The Carsons were not

easy to screw with, thus she couldn't make the Wrights angry and

worried about her.

She thought Mrs. Carson was right when said she was always an

encumbrance to the Wrights.

"Jenna, it's not your fault. It's Mrs. Carson who humiliated you and hurt

you." Brayden seized her hands to give her strength, “This is your

home. You've said so, right?"

"No..." Jenna shook her head violently. At the very beginning, when

Aldo led her to the Carson Residence, he also told her it was her home.

But what about after?

When enough time had gone by, everyone would dislike her because

she was not intelligent, not eloquent, and not able to do anything.

However, she had tried hard to learn, indeed. She wanted to be normal.

But she couldn't make it; she thought she was stupid.

The thought brought a tear to her eyes. She held herself in her arms,

bursting into tears and murmuring unconsciously, "No, I'm not a bitch...

I'm not... I didn't seduce Aldo... No, I'm not... Don't stab me with the

needles..."

It seemed that she was trapped in a strange circle where there was the

fiendish face of Mrs. Carson. She was so frightened that she could only

clasp herself.

She said to herself, "Jenna... You should move back and hold

yourself... Just move back..."

Mrs. Wright felt heartache for her, embracing her in her arms, and said

to Mayor Cody, "Cody, that's enough. She's very shaken.”

Mayor Cody nodded resignedly.

Meanwhile, he was afraid that there might be some bloody trouble

hereafter since the Wilson family were wicked and merciless and the

Carson family was closely associated with it.

God bless—

Franklin was awakened by a phone call.

"What? Mrs. Carson and her son made a scene in the Wright

residence?"

The man was fully awake all of a sudden.

He sat up on the sofa.

Sylvia slowly opened her eyes to look at him, saying blearily, “What's

going on?"

"I don't know now. It seems serious." Franklin hung up, "Jasper just

overheard it. Many in the complex know about it."

"How are they at war with each other?" Sylvia felt a bit confused. She

had been going to Franklin these days, thus she made little headway

with Jenna.

When she heard about the Wrights and the Carsons, she got a sudden

flash of inspiration, "Maybe it's Jenna."

“It's said there is a girl in the Wright residence. It's incredibly likely."

Franklin nodded, "How about taking a look today?"

"Good."

Their whisper woke the woman on the bed.

No sooner had Taryn opened her sleepy eyes than she saw the

beautiful man and woman on the sofa in the ward.

They looked harmonious and matching.

Such a beautiful scene made Taryn feel uncomfortable though.

"Franklin," she murmured, looking around.

After she found it was in the hospital, she quickly looked guilty and

said, "Did I have a relapse? Sorry... I just put you out like this.”

"Taryn, don't say that." Franklin rose to his feet and gave her a cup of

water, "Take good care of yourself."

Then he took Sylvia's hand and said, "She's my girlfriend, Sylvia."

"Morning, Taryn.” Sylvia smiled at Taryn friendly.

Taryn smiled back weakly. When she saw that they were hand in hand,

she felt a bit jealous and said, "Time flies. My Franklin got a girlfriend.

You used to stay with me and think about me first, but hereafter there's

another girl!"

It made Sylvia feel uncomfortable. Her smile froze on her face.

What did Taryn's words "think about me first" mean?

Did Taryn covertly tell Sylvia that she was the most important one for

Franklin?

Sylvia doubted if she was overthinking that there was always

something opaque in Taryn's eyes when she looked at Franklin.

Sylvia, what were you doing?

They were siblings.

Did you become idiotic as you fell in love?

After staying in the hospital for a day, Taryn got back to Townyer Villa.

Franklin still had many things to deal with.

And Sylvia should go to the Wright residence.

There had been an oppressive atmosphere in the Wright residence

because of the events in the morning.

To console Jenna, Mrs. Wright took her to the Royal Restaurant.

It was the first time that Jenna had been to a place like this so she just

looked around curiously.

Jenna said, "Here is beautiful.”

"Naturally. Not everyone can enter here." Mrs. Wright smiled, "Let's go

to the box."

Unexpectedly, they were then confronted by an intruder.

"Jesus! Are you blind? You hit me!"
