Every Breath You Take

Chapter 142

Quarmy let Director Li get Jerry, Lassie's man, out of prison in advance. After Jerry was released, he

went back to the Cat's Alley. Although he used to be a great hooligan in the cat's alley, most of his

followers were no longer here. He didn't know the hooligans here now.

Jerry's return did not attract anyone's attention. He came to his house with his simple luggage. Then he

saw a picture of a shabby house with grass on the wall.

His parents died together more than ten years ago, and his sister was nowhere to be found. No one

had lived in this house for more than ten years. Seeing the dilapidated and desolate scene in front of

him, Jerry felt a little sad. He thought that he used to be a hero. He never dreamed that he would get

into such a situation one day.

At that time, when he was released from prison, he believed that there would be a sensation when he

came back. There must be a lot of hooligans welcoming him and buying him dinner. He thought that he

would be their leader again.

Everything in front of him awakened him. He could no longer live in his house, so he decided to live in a

hotel first. After settling down, he could repair his house.

Jerry didn't have much money, which was earned when he was in prison. He decided to make more

money. Jerry went outside to buy some instant noodles. On the way back, someone stopped him. The

person looked at him up and down and then said enthusiastically, "Are you Jerry?"

"Who are you?" Jerry looked at that person doubtfully. In his impression, he didn't know such a person

at all.

"I'm Leo! Jerry, you don't know me?" The man introduced himself. Jerry didn't remember him at all. He

guessed that Leo must be a lame hooligan.

"When did you come back?" Leo asked him.

"I just came back today!"

"Ah, no one knows that? Since I met you, let me buy you dinner. You can't refuse me." Leo said as he

reached out his hand to drag Jerry to the car beside him.

"The lame guy has a car, while I don't even have a place to live." Jerry thought it with sadness.

However, he'd love to be welcomed. He also wanted to know what had happened these years, so he

followed Leo to a nearby restaurant.

Leo ordered a lot of food. He and Jerry drank and chatted happily. Jerry heard that some of his

followers went abroad, some went to jail and some were no longer hooligans. In short, few of them

stayed here.

Jerry knew that it was impossible for him to be a hooligan again. He was a newcomer to the hooligans

here. Therefore, he became a little anxious.

What should he do? Except for fighting and bullying, he was good at nothing.

He thought of his only sister Amanda, so he asked Leo about Amanda's whereabouts. Leo said that

Amanda had gone to another place to work, but he didn't know where she went.

Jerry thought of Lassie again. She was his disgrace. This b*tch was really ungrateful. When he was in

his prime, this b*tch had lived a good life. After he went to jail, she abandoned him and secretly sent his

son to others. If he knew her whereabouts, he would eat her alive.

At present, he was homeless, so he had to find out where this b*tch was. She must be afraid of him

because she had done something wrong to him. If he could blackmail her, he might live a better life.

Leo knew nothing about Lassie. Hearing that Jerry was homeless and jobless, Leo patted his chest and

made a promise to Jerry. "If you don't mind, you can work with me. I'll treat you well."

Jerry was overjoyed. Right now, what he needed the most was a place to live. He was grateful to Leo.

After dinner, Leo immediately brought Jerry to his place.

Leo's place was very good. Jerry asked him what he was doing now. Leo said that he was working at a

nightclub. Jerry was moved. This job was also suitable for him, so he asked Leo to help him find such a

job. Leo agreed and let him rest for a few days first.

Of course, Leo was not a hooligan in the Cat's Alley. He was one of Quarmy's men. Lassie wanted to

kill Jenny, so Quarmy naturally would not let her go. He didn't want to send Lassie to jail. Instead, he

wanted her to be tortured. The person who could deal with Lassie was undoubtedly her ex-man, Jerry.

In Jerry's eyes, since Lassie gave birth to his child, she should be his woman forever. She couldn't

remarry without his permission. However, not only did she remarry, but she gave his son away.

This was a great humiliation to Jerry. If he knew where Lassie was, he would definitely let her suffer.

Therefore, Quarmy let Leo wait for Jerry in the Cat's Alley and take Jerry in. Then, Quarmy would

disclose the whereabouts of Lassie to Jerry. When the time came, all Quarmy had to do was to enjoy

the show.

After living in Leo's place for a few days, Jerry mentioned the job again. Noah asked Leo to take Jerry

to a nightclub and let him work there for a few days. Leo immediately went to do it.

At this time, Lassie started to deal with Ada. Quarmy felt strange when he heard about Ada's abortion.

Although Lassie was vicious, Ada's child was her grandchild. How could she be vicious enough to hurt

her grandchild?

Did Ada have any secrets? He asked Noah to investigate Ada. The result surprised him a lot. Ada was

Amanda, Jerry's biological younger sister and Ted's aunt. No wonder Lassie would do that.

Quarmy sneered. It seemed that he had to tell Ted what Lassie did and turn them against each other.

He wondered what Lassie was going to do with Ted and Jerry.

At this time, a doctor called Quarmy and said that Jenny might wake up in the next few days. Quarmy

was overjoyed. What he was most worried about now was his mother. As long as his mother could

wake up, he could rest assured.

Quarmy called the carers and asked them to closely observe his mother's condition. As long as Jenny

woke up, they should inform him immediately.

In the middle of the night, Jenny finally slowly opened her eyes. She looked at the strange environment

in confusion. It took a long time for her to realize what was going on.

She was in a hospital now. What happened? Why was she here? She tried to recall, and some blurred

fragments appeared in her mind. She thought of Eva's ferocious face and Yale's vicious words. In

addition, Lassie, who had been honest and quiet, actually hit her!

Their grinning faces flashed in front of her eyes. They were going to send the bird-nest soup with

saffron to Monica in her name! Her grandson! Monica!... How were they now? Fear made Jenny

struggle. She couldn't let these evil women hurt her grandson. She pulled off the mask on her face and

tried to sit up.

Her movements woke up the carers. Seeing Jenny pull off the oxygen mask, the two carers came over

quickly. One of them immediately called the doctor and Quarmy, the other went to comfort Jenny.

"Madam, don't be excited. The doctor will be here soon!"

"Quarmy... call... call Quarmy!" Jenny ordered the carers. The doctor on duty came in a hurry. He went

forward and checked for Jenny. Seeing her stable condition, he told the carers not to be nervous. He

comforted Jenny, "Don't worry, Mr. Huo will be here soon!"

"The bird's nest... is poisonous... my grandson... Monica..." Jenny gesticulated incoherently. The carers

comforted her and said, "Madam, your grandson is fine. Don't worry!"

How could Jenny believe it? She remembered very clearly that Lassie, the evil woman, was going to

send the poisonous bird's nest to Monica. If Monica ate it, she would definitely lose her baby. Her

grandson...

Jenny dared not imagine the consequences, so she was very anxious. She struggled to get out of bed,

but her body was too weak.

Quarmy was awakened by the phone call from the carer. He drove to the hospital in a hurry. When

Jenny saw him, she reached out to grab his hand. "Quarmy... my grandson... How is he?"

"Mom, the child is fine. Don't worry." Quarmy held her hand to comfort her.

"Where is Monica? How is Monica?"

"Monica is fine. Take care of yourself. I'll let her visit you with Coco in a few days." Quarmy helped

Jenny lie down. Jenny was finally relieved.

Then, she suddenly sat up again. "Son, is that b*tch Lassie still at our house?"

Quarmy nodded. Jenny was very worried. "You have to be careful. She is too vicious! She colluded

with outsiders to hurt me. You have to catch her immediately!" "Don't worry. Since you fainted, I've Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

suspected her. I won't be deceived by her and she can't run away!" Quarmy answered. As he

expected, Lassie was not innocent. "Now, since you woke up, I can deal with her slowly."

"That b*tch is so hateful. She is a poisonous snake. It's her fault that our family became like this. I want

to deal with her personally to vent my anger!" Jenny gnashed her teeth. If it was not because of her

weak body, she would definitely go back to torture Lassie.

"Mom, don't be excited. Take care of yourself first. I'll handle it. I'm sure you'll be satisfied!"

"No! Listen, we still have to deal with Eva and Yale. They have been deliberately scheming against us."

"I know. Mom, don't worry. I'm working on it. None of them can escape!"

"No! You don't know! These b*tches thought that I would die, so they told me everything." Jenny looked

resentful.

"Do you know why Monica has been sterile for five years? That b*tch Lassie drugged her. Monica is not

sterile at all, but Eva used my trust and said that Monica couldn't get pregnant. Also, she encouraged

me to hate Monica. As for Yale, she has been scheming against us in order to marry her daughter to

you. They did a lot of bad things to us, we can't let any of them go!"

Jenny was out of breath after saying so much. Quarmy quickly patted her. He was shocked by what

she said. He did not expect that those b*tches had done so many bad things. Fortunately, his mother

woke up, or he would never know the truth.

Jenny slowly calmed down. "These b*tches are so vicious. We can't deal with them in normal ways. We

have to fight fire with fire!"

Quarmy nodded. He couldn't describe his anger at the moment. He really wanted to skin Lassie, Eva,

Madrigal and Yale.

His mother was right! An eye for an eye! Lassie drugged Monica and let her be sterile for five years, he

had to avenge Monica. In the past, he just planned to take back the money she got from the Huo

family. Now he found that he was too kind. He had to let this vicious woman feel what it was like to

have no children!

Jerry had already been released. Originally, Quarmy was hesitating, but now it seemed that he should

show no mercy!

Yale hated Amanda very much. She immediately asked Uriah to investigate Amanda. She was ready to

let Amanda suffer more than she had suffered. It was easy for Uriah to know Amanda's whereabouts.

After miscarriage, Ada's body was very weak. Therefore, Ted moved to her house to take care of her.

Uriah happened to see Ted when he was investigating Ada. He came back and told Yale about it.

Yale's heart skipped a beat when she heard that Ted and Ada were together.

Would that letter have anything to do with Ted?

"Ada has known that I caused Hannah's death for so many years. Why didn't she threaten me earlier?"

When Yale heard that Ted and Ada had just known each other, she was sure that that letter had

something to do with Ted.

Now Yale was most worried about whether Lassie was involved in this matter. Lassie knew too much

about her. She would go down if Lassie wanted to deal with her.

Yale was a little worried. If Lassie was involved in this matter, she had to get rid of Lassie as well.

Jerry was arranged to work at Ada's nightclub. The person in the nightclub let him see Ada's photo.

Jerry was very surprised to see his sister's photo. After inquiring about it, he soon knew that his sister

used to be a procuress in this nightclub. Jerry was very happy, so he went to visit her after knowing her

address. The person who opened the door was Ted.

Of course, Ted didn't know Jerry. After he moved here to take care of Ada, he finally knew how many

men Ada used to have. Over the past few days, there were always old men visiting Ada. One time he

opened the door, an old man teased, "Ada actually hooked up with such a young man. No wonder she

abandoned us!"

Ted was mad with anger. He really loved Ada. Naturally, he couldn't calm himself down after knowing

this. He quarreled with Ada many times for this.

Seeing Jerry, Ted instinctively regarded Jerry as Ada's ex- man. He stood at the door and asked, "Who

are you looking for?"

Of course, Jerry knew what his sister had been these years. He thought that Ted was her lover, so he

asked impolitely, "Who are you?"

Both of them were impolite. Ted was used to being rampant, so he reached out to push Jerry. "Get out.

Don't come here in the future, or I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

Jerry used to be a hooligan and no one dared to threaten him. Hearing what Ted said, he was really

angry. He immediately grabbed Ted's collar and punched Ted. This heavy punch made Ted's mouth

and nose bleed and he immediately became dizzy.

It was a great shame for Ted to be beaten at his woman's house. Although he felt dizzy, he tried to fight

back.

Although Ted was young, he was useless. He was no match of Jerry, so his attack was nothing to Jerry.

Hearing Ted cursing, Jerry became angrier. "How dare you? Look at you, you still want to be kept by

women? Let me teach you a lesson!"

Ted was beaten so badly that he had no strength to fight back. Their fighting alerted Ada, who was

sleeping. She hurriedly got up to see what was going on. When she saw her brother punch Ted, she

quickly stepped forward to stop him. "Brother, stop fighting!"

Seeing his sister, Jerry let go of Ted. "Who is this guy?"

"He's my boyfriend!" Ada's heart ached when she saw Ted's bruised face. She hurried up to help Ted

and complained, "Brother, why did you beat him?"

Jerry was quite upset when he saw that his sister only cared about her boyfriend. They had not seen

each other for so many years, so he suppressed the anger in his heart. Ted was beaten so badly that

Ada had been busy dealing with his wound and forgot to greet her brother. Jerry had just been out of

prison, he thought that his sister would welcome him. But he was wrong. Amanda didn't have time to

care about him at all. Jerry felt really uncomfortable, so he said after staying here for a few minutes, "I'll

see you again in a few days." Then, he left.

After Jerry left, Ted asked Ada, "Is he your brother? Why haven't I heard of him?"

"My brother had been in jail before. I don't know when he was released." Ada explained.

"No wonder he is so fierce."

Ada smiled bitterly. If she hadn't stopped Jerry, Ted would have been ten times more miserable than he

was now. Just now, she had been busy with taking care of Ted and forgot to greet her brother. Her

brother must have been mad at Ted. What should she do?

Jerry left Ada's house angrily and went back to the nightclub where he worked. Coincidentally, Leo

came to see him. Seeing his unhappy face, Leo asked him what happened.

Jerry trusted Leo and told him what had just happened. Leo was very surprised. "Is Amanda working in

this nightclub? Why don't I know about this?"

"Because she changed her name and you didn't see her before." Jerry didn't suspect Leo at all. He had

nothing now, and there was no need for Leo to deceive him. He was full of anger now. He had been so

nice to his sister since childhood. She left him alone for her boyfriend, which made him really sad.

Leo naturally understood his sadness. He comforted Jerry and said that Amanda must have been

deceived by that man. Now there were gigolo men who specialized in taking money from women.

Amanda's boyfriend must be one of them. They had to find a chance to expose him.

The two of them were discussing how to reveal Ted's true colors to Amanda. Leo knew a lot of people,

so he offered to handle this matter.

As expected, Leo soon told Jerry that Ted was a man of no skills. He cheated women out of their

money for a living and Amanda was his new target.

It was true that Ted was a man of no skills. Jerry was furious when he heard that. He went to his sister

and told her to stay away from Ted. However, Amanda said that Ted was gentle and considerate. She

wouldn't leave him.

Amanda defended Ted, "He is not jobless. I had a miscarriage so he stayed at home to take care of

__ _ ii

me.

Hearing that she had a miscarriage for Ted, Jerry was more furious. But he could do nothing except

being angry. His sister was so stubborn. How could she be fooled by such a gigolo man?

He had no way to convince his sister, so he put all the blame on Ted. It was Ted who seduced his

sister. He had to think of a way to deal with Ted.

While he was thinking, Leo told him about Lassie's whereabouts. When he heard that Lassie was a

servant in the Huo family, his eyes lit up. The Huo family was not an ordinary family. Lassie must have

made a lot of money. He had to get all her money and let her tell him where his son was. After thinking

for a while, Jerry went to wait outside the Huo family.

However, he met Ted again. After being beaten by Jerry, Ted didn't dare to go out for a few days. He

lay on the bed and thought about what Jerry said for a long time. Jerry called him a gigolo man.

Although he was unhappy, he couldn't refute.

Since he lived with Ada, most of the money he spent was Ada's. That was why he was looked down

upon. He struggled to get up and went to find Lassie. He planned to ask Lassie for money and then let

her get him a job.

Lassie came out in a hurry after receiving a phone call from her son. She took her son to a quiet place.

"What's wrong with you? How did you get hurt?"

"I was hit!" Ted was not in a good mood.

"Who hit you?"

Ted didn't dare to say that he was beaten by Ada's brother. His mother didn't like Ada, so he answered

with hesitation, "A hooligan."

"You're so naughty!" Lassie poked her son's forehead. "When can you grow up?"

Jerry hid by the side and saw it clearly. He thought that Lassie was flirting with Ted. "Ted has a

relationship with the b*tch Lassie?" Jerry was very angry. Ted actually had slept with both his sister and

his ex-woman? "I won't let him go!"

Ted and Lassie naturally didn't notice Jerry. Ted took Lassie's hand and begged, "Mom, please give me

some money!" "I don't have any money." Lassie was not in a good mood.

"What about your salary this month?" Ted was thinking about Lassie's salary.

"Quarmy hasn't been home in a while. He said that he would pay me after he came back." Lassie

answered. In the past, Quarmy transferred the salary to her bank card, but recently he suddenly

changed his mind. He said that he was going to give her cash. He had been busy, so he let her wait for

a while.

Lassie was not afraid that Quarmy would break his promise because the Huo family was rich. However,

Ted couldn't wait any longer. "Mom, you can give me some of the petty cash he gave you."

"I've given some of it to you last time. I don't dare to take it again. What if he finds it out?" Lassie shook

her head.

"Are you still my mother? You abandoned in the past and made me become like this. Now you have the

ability to support me, but you don't want to support me. In this case, why did you give birth to me?" Ted

started acting like a scoundrel.

"Why are you yelling? Do you want to die?" Lassie reached out to cover his mouth. "Just wait a few

days. When Quarmy comes back, I'll give you money."

"I don't have a penny now."

Lassie took out some money from her pocket and handed it to Ted. "That's all."

Ted knew that it was all she had, so he took the money and left. Jerry was so angry to see this scene.

This b*tch actually flirted with this little b*stard in public. When there was no one around, he didn't know

what would happen. He had to teach this b*tch a lesson!

After Ted left, Lassie was ready to go home, but Jerry jumped out and stopped her. Lassie was

shocked. When she saw clearly who this person was, her face suddenly changed. "You... How did you

get out of jail??"

"Do you want me to be in jail for the rest of my life?" Jerry sneered.

"No... no." Lassie didn't know what to say. She was very clear about Jerry's personality. Based on what

she did to him, he would definitely not let her go.

The most terrible thing was that Amanda and Ted were together. If Jerry knew this, he would definitely

kill her.

"You b*tch!" Jerry glared at Lassie viciously. Back then, he had also devoted himself to Lassie. That

time, he treated her well, but she was too vicious. She sent his only son to others when he was in

prison. She was really ruthless.

Over the years, he had suffered a lot in prison, but this b*tch lived a comfortable life and even had a

gigolo man. Looking at Lassie's well- maintained face, Jerry hated her so much that he punched her

face. "Ungrateful woman!"

He was furious, so it could be imagined how hard he hit her. With a scream, she felt dizzy and her face

was immediately swollen. Jerry didn't want to stop, so he gave her another hard punch. "B*tch!"

After this punch, her two teeth were knocked out and she was bleeding from her nose and mouth. She

couldn't stand the pain so she shouted for help. This was a high-end villa. The security guards were on

patrol at this time. They should have stopped Jerry from causing trouble at this time. However, not even

a security guard chose to help Lassie.

At first, Jerry was a little timid when he heard Lassie shouting for help, but when he found that the

security guards ignored Lassie, he calmed down and said, "You b*tch, how dare you call for help? Let

me teach you a lesson!"

Lassie thought that someone would come to save her, but she was wrong. She knew how violent Jerry

was, so she begged for mercy in a hurry. "I was wrong! Please forgive me!"

Jerry didn't listen to her explanation. He kicked her several times. "B*tch! Where is my son?"

Lassie didn't intend to tell Jerry about Ted, but she was afraid that she would be killed by Jerry.

Therefore, she said, "I found your son. He is fine. Let me go and I'll take you to see him!"

Hearing that, Jerry felt less angry. He grabbed Lassie's hair and lifted her up from the ground. "Take me

to see my son right away!"

Ted was living with Ada now. If Jerry knew the whole story, Lassie would go down. She did not dare to

take Jerry to see Ted. Her only idea now was to delay this matter before she could think of a way. "How

can I take you to see my son in my current state?"

Seeing her bloody face, Jerry let go of her. "Fine, let's talk about it later. But I don't have money now.

Give me some money."

"I don't have money!" She had just given all her money to Ted.

Hearing this, Jerry became angry. "You b*tch, aren't you quite generous to that gigolo man? If you don't

give me money I will beat you to death!"

"He's not a gigolo man!" Lassie denied.

"How dare you lie to me? I saw it just now." Jerry snorted. "You b*tch, how dare you date such a young

man? Aren't you afraid of being punished? Give me money. Otherwise, I'll break your legs today!"

Lassie was anxious. Now she had no choice but to tell him everything. "He's your son Ted..."

Jerry was stunned at the moment. "My sister's boyfriend turned out to be my son?" He suspected that

he had heard it wrong, so he asked Lassie again. Lassie didn't know that he already knew about Ted's

relationship with Ada, so she repeated what she said just now.

Jerry was completely stunned! His son and sister were in love, and his sister was pregnant. If the child

hadn't been killed, wouldn't it be a monster?

All this was caused by Lassie, the b*tch. If she hadn't given his son away, his son wouldn't have been

in love with his sister. It was all this b*tch's fault!

Jerry was so furious that he grabbed Lassie's hair and hit her again. Lassie didn't expect Jerry to be

angrier after hearing what she said. She didn't dare to fight back because she knew how fierce Jerry

was. He was sent to prison because he had beaten someone to death.

But now, seeing how hard Jerry hit her, Lassie knew that she would die if she didn't resist. She began

to struggle and desperately call for help. Her resistance made Jerry hate her more. This b*tch dared to

resist!

She wanted to die so badly? Jerry was completely out of his mind. When Lassie stretched out her hand

to scratch his face, he poked straight at her eyes. She tilted her head to dodge it. However, one of her

eyes was still hurt.

Blood sprayed all over Jerry's face, and his eyes were also covered with blood. The pain made Lassie

scream. The scream was too horrible that people could hear it from miles away.

Jerry reached out his hand to wipe the blood covering his eyes, only to find that there was a black thing

in his hand. He was shocked when he saw it was an eyeball. Then he saw Lassie rolling on the ground

with her hands covering her face. She was screaming with her face full of blood. Jerry knew that he

had cut out one of her eyes, which could let him be in prison again. Jerry's anger disappeared because

of fear. He had to leave here!

He threw the eyeball to the ground. Ignoring Lassie, who was screaming and rolling on the ground, he

spat and strode away.
