Desperate Lovers novel Chapter 326

Lowering her head depressedly, Jessica didn't say anything.

"Danis is so obsessed with Angela that he even broke off his engagement to Miss Delia and ran away from home!" complained Adeline angrily.

"It must be Angela who has told him something. Now he is insisting on competing for the company with Jessica and doesn't even regard Jessica as his sister! What if he turns the whole Smith Group over to Angela in the near future?"

Hearing that, Timothy twitched her mouth and stroked her belly, saying, "Danis is totally an idiot. He's either fooled by a cripple or obsessed with a bitch. How you have taught him!"

"Shut up! I don't ask you!" shouted Adeline. Even though Adeline was discontent with Danis too, she didn't allow anyone else, especially Adeline, who had been a whore, to speak ill of him.

Angry with Adeline's shouting at her, Timothy pouted with her arms around the neck of Charles, "Look at her, darling. She even dares to bully me in front of you!"

Even though the other people there had seen such scenes like that for many times, it was still hard for them it accept it.

Their reputation as a literary family was now completely ruined by a vixen-like whore and everyone would comment about them wherever they went.

Speaking a few words quietly to Timothy, Charles turned to Adeline and berated, "She's your mother! How could you speak to her like that? Apologize!"

As Adeline had been the favorite of her families in the Lewis family before she married Jessica's father and had never been wronged even after she married Jessica's father, she was so angry that her tears burst out.

"Grandpa, as Miss Timothy is as young as me, she can even be the daughter of Mom at her age. How could you ask Mom to call her mother?"

"What's more, Miss Timothy shouldn't have blamed Danis like that."

While knowing that she shouldn't say anything now, Jessica couldn't help doing it as she had suffered too much frustration from Lawson Harvey and Angela.

Standing up immediately, Timothy pointed at Jessica and shouted, "It's none of your business how old I am! I married your grandfather, so I'm your grandmother according the family hierarchy, and you should call my son uncle!"

Hearing what Timothy said, all the other people except Charles looked discontent.

"Don't be angry with the children, "said Charles as he pulled Timothy onto his thighs and coaxed for quite a while. Then he said, "Jessica, your grandmother is a little sensitive as she's pregnant. I hope you can understand it as you are usually the most sensible."

Jessica was quite wronged as if there was a fish bone sticking in her throat. Taking a deep breath, she finally depressed her anger and agreed.

"Actually, it is your another two grandparents who let me to ask you here today," said Charles as he stroked the long hair of Timothy.

Jessica changed her countenance a little as she had guessed mostly what Charles was going to say, but she didn't respond.

"As the finance director of the Smith Group, you should be clear about what happened to it," said Charles, "and because of your framing Angela, the shares of the Smith Group have fallen by the limit several times and its market value has declined by 18%. Do you know what this figure means?"

Suddenly, Jessica stood up from the wheelchair and walked towards Charles in the astonished eyes of others, saying, "Wait, Grandpa. My leg is almost healed. I was going to give you a surprise."

"Scheming bitch!" said Timothy in a loud voice as she rolled her eyes.

Ignoring what Timothy said, Jessica just said seriously, "Grandpa, I can go on any blind date you and Grandpa Smith and Grandma Smith arrange for me. But I don't want to be a housewife. You told that women must be independent, didn't you?"

"You don't need to prove how independent you are by earning how much money. You are too competent at work, even overwhelming most men. This will make them feel imbalanced and bad for your future marriage."

Stunned for quite a while, Jessica suddenly said with a forlorn and sarcastic smile, "Can you tell me why Grandpa Smith and Grandma Smith have commissioned you to tell me this thing, Grandpa?"

"What you did recently has disappointed them so much that they don't know how to face you. They commissioned me because I'm a close elder of you," said Charles.

Lowering her head to tidy up her cuff, Jessica said bitterly, "Good excuses. You just fear that the Smith family and the Lewis family will be involved in the revenge of Grandpa Harvey on me, don't you?"

Staring at Jessica, Charles didn't say anything.

"So why do you call everybody here?" asked Jessica even though she had guessed the answer.

Sweeping his eyes over all the other people there and finally resting them on Jessica, Charles said, "I called them here to let them see how many stupid things you have done for a man and take warning from it!"
