Chapter 436
Just when Reina was lost in thought, a hand suddenly reached out to her. She heard Jonathan’s deep voice.
He said, “What’s going ont
Are you freaked out?
Reina blinked and tried her best to calm down.
After a while, she raised her head and said sincerely. “Thank you. Actually, I wouldn’t get hurt even if you hadn’t helped me.”
Reina meant although Marina was a bad person, she was a woman. Reina didn’t want Jonathan to be criticized if he hurt a woman.
But Jonathan didn’t seem to have such cancers.
Jonathan raised his eyebrow and bent down to whisper in Reina’s car, “This is a great opportunity. How can I make you have a crush on me if I don’t help you!”
When she spoke, he deliberately gasped to make him sound more attractive
Reina’s ears turned red unconsciously. She pushed Jonathan away in embarrassment and anger.
To Marina, this was purely provocation.
She thought the reason why Jonathan treated her like thus was because of Reina’s instigation.
She thought. “This woman is like my nemesis. Without her, Jonathan would be mine.”
She was so angry that she lost her mind. Regardless of the stains all over her, she stood up and reached out to grab Reina’s hair.
Reina didin’t let jonathan stop her this time. She turned around and pressed Marina down on the table. Then she took out her ID card and put it in front of Marina’s eyes.
Reina said, “Think twice about it. I’m a police officer, I already showed you my badge. If you attack, you will be charged for assaulting a police officer and you’ll end up in jail”
Reina sounded solemn and intimidating, just like when she was investigating a case
Hearing her words, Marina had to calm down no matter how angry she was.
She was about to explode with anger but she didn’t dare to fight back, So she just used words to vent her anger.
She said. “So what‘ It’s an abuse of power. I can complain about it.”
Reina uid. “Go ahead,”
Reina withdrew her hand that was grabbing Marina’s neck seeing that Marina had calmed down.
Reina clapped her hands like she had just touched something dirty. She pointed at a surveillance camera not far away from them
She said, “There’s a surveillance camera. You can go to the police with the videos and tell them how it’s an abuse of power”
Marina didn’t intend to complain about it. She just said it to make herself feel better.
She knew she was at a disadvantage.
Marina couldn’t win Reina. Now, her clothes were covered with sticky wine which was very uncomfortable.
She had to find a way to change her clothes first.
No one in the living room would help her because of what Katelyn and Marina had done just now.
Marina had no choice but to walk to Jasmine.
She said, “Mrs. Sullivan, do you have any spare clothes?” Material © NôvelDrama.Org.
“No.” Jasmine said without hesitation, ready to kick her out of here, ‘Since your clothes were ruined, why don’t you go back home with your grandma?”
Jasmine had been putting up with them for a long time.
Obviously, Katelyn and Marina were scheming troublemakers. Jasmine was afraid that they would betray her if she befriended them.
So even if they were relatives, Jasmine didn’t want to spend any time with them.
The expressions of Katelyn and Marina immediately changed.
They didn’t want to leave without achieving their goal.
As if nothing had happened, Katelyn took Jasmine’s hands and tried to chat with her warmly despite the way people around her looked at her.
Katelyn said, Jasmine, we came here to celebrate your birthday. How can we leave before the party is over? My granddaughter is not picky. Just find any clothes of her size.”
Jasmine moved away from her a little bit, disgusted.
She thought. Is she just pretending not to understand what I saidr
She didn’t expect that her cousin didn’t become any wiser as she grew old but only became more shameless.
There were spare clothes in the Clara residence. Cynthia would sometimes spend the night here so Jasmine prepared one or two sets of new clothes
for her
But they were for Cynthia so Jasmine didn’t want anyone else to wear them.
Seeing that Jasmine was in a dilemma, Cynthia decided to help her
She called for a servant.
She said. “Ms. Henderson’s clothes are wet Lend your clothes to her.”
The servant pointed at herself in disbelief. “My clothes?”
She was now in her fifties and she was chubby so she almost didn’t have any clorbes except for the uniforms for cleaners.
The servant looked Marina up and down doubtfully.
She thought, ‘She won’t like it will she?’
Sure enough, hefore the servant could say another word, Marina opened her mouth.
Marina glared at Cynthin. She knew Cynthia was trying to embarrass her. She said, “I don’t want it. Mrs. Sullivan, you have such a big villa. How come you don’t have any spare clothes?
She could imagine how she would look and what Jonathan would think of her if she was in a servant’s uniform.
Hearing Marina’s words, the servant was in a dilemma and hesitated.
Cynthia sneered.
She said, “Ms. Henderson, you can leave if you don’t want to wear it. This not a place for you to be picke
Marina clamped her lips together. She was simmering with rage
But to stay here, she had to leave with the servant.
Soon she changed her clothes and came back.
Marina, who used to be fashionable, was now dressed like a village girl.
The uniform that she was wearing was too baggy for her and the orange color of it made her skin look dirty.
This change was so huge that all the guests around her turned to her.
E
Marina had to put up with the smell of the clothes that were usually on the elderly while trying to make others ignore her.
Soon, they had dinner.
Seeing that it was about time, Cynthia took out the pearl necklace that she prepared carlier.
She said, “Jasmine, happy birthday. I give you my best wishes”
Jasmine said. “Thanks. I believe I will live to be a hundred years old
Jasmine smiled and looked at his granddaughter–in–law with satisfaction. She gently took out the necklace and put it near her neck.
She said “Cynthia, help me.”
Cynthia stood up without hesitation and went behind Jasmine
Soon, a low–key but luxurious pearl necklace was put around the old lady’s neck.
The white pearl necklace was a great match to her red dress, which was beautiful.
The guests around exclaimed, stunned by this necklace.
Someone said. “I remember this necklace belonged to a foreign royal family.”
