The Miraculous Simone Gray

Chapter 479 Are You Not Afraid of Playing With Fire?

Jodie was released and suddenly found herself without a place to go.

She couldn’t turn to the Gray Family, as Salma despised her and would not take her in.

Her biological father had chosen Tina over her and cut ties with her.

Her biological mother was already in prison

Even though she had hired a good lawyer to help her, her mother was sentenced to six years.

During this long period, she didn’t know if her mother would survive until her release.

Later, she learned that it wasn’t just the Gray Family and the Foster Family who had intervened in her mother’s case.

The Turner Family had also taken action, resulting in this outcome.

She had mixed feelings towards Zac.

If it weren’t for Zac’s prestigious background, popularity, successful career, and outstanding looks and temperament, everything would have been in her favor.

She had always dreamed of marrying a man like Zac.

But unfortunately, that scoundrel was drugged by Simone and targeted her.

She had no choice but to give up

She also didn’t dare to go to her uncle’s house.

When she was in detention, her uncle and aunt had come to see her.

But instead of showing any concern, they only scolded her.

They blamed her for being a jinx, completely ruining their family.

They even wanted to force her to give them money to repay their debts.

Jodie didn’t even have enough money to hire a lawyer, so how could she possibly come up with the money?

After telling the truth, she was scolded harshly again.

If it wasn’t for being in detention, she suspected that her aunt would have hit her.

It was best not to get involved with them now, let alone go live with them.

After thinking it over, the only person she could think of was Reuben.

Now, he was the only one who still cared about her.

And so, Jodie called Reuben

At the moment, Reuben was in his office talking to Titus, trying to convince him to work at another branch of the Gray Group.

When he saw Jodie’s call, he wasn’t surprised.

He answered, “What’s up?” Jodie sweetly said, “Reuben, I’m out.”

Then, she pitifully added. “But I have nowhere to go now, and all the money I had was lost because of Mom. I don’t know what to do. Can I stay with you for a few days? Once I find a job, I’ll leave.”

The truth was that finding a job was never in the cards.

Although Jodie used to be an adopted daughter, she was also a wealthy heiress and had some fame in the entertainment industry.

Working in a random shop would be embarrassing if she was recognized.

Reuben hesitated and said. “It’s not that I don’t want to take you in, but if Mom finds out, neither of us will escape her wrath. How about I give you some money, and you can stay in a hotel? You have a good relationship with Joanne, don’t you? Maybe you can go to her and stay for a few days. It’s thanks to her that you were able to come out this time.”

These words made Titus, who was looking at his phone, look up at Reuben.

The latter met his gaze, his eyes showing little emotion.

Jodie felt uncomfortable on the other side, but she knew she couldn’t refuse.

And so, she obediently said, “Okay, then I’ll stay at a hotel. Reuben, the money you’re giving me… Consider it as a loan. I’ll pay you back when I have money.”

It was impossible to repay the money, but the words sounded good, making it seem like she didn’t want to rely on him.

Reuben smiled. “It’s just a small amount of money. Don’t worry about it. I’m about to have a meeting. Contact me if you need anything in the future.”

Jodie said, “Okay, I won’t bother you then.”

Just after hanging up the phone, she received a text notification that 15 thousand had been added to her account.

Jodie pursed her lips, thinking that Reuben was really stingy.

What can you do with 15 thousandt

But for now, it solved her urgent need, and it also meant that he did care about her.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have helped her behind Salpur’s back.

Since Jodie couldn’t get close to Zar, she decided to set her sights on Reuben.

Although Reuben wasn’t as handsome as Zac, he was still elegant, and he was the Hell

If she could marry him, she would become a wealthy lady in the future, continuing to live a carefree life without worrying about money,

He could also help her pay off the hefty penalty she still owed.

Also, it would infuriate that old witch, Salma.

She could even confront Salma from time to time.

Just thinking about it made her feel great.

Jodie didn’t immediately go to the hotel but called Joanne.

She told her about Reuben giving her money and asking her to find a good hotel for her to stay in.

She guessed that Joanne would willingly find a place for her to stay.

After all, this woman had been longing for Reuben for a long time.

Of course, Jodie wouldn’t help Joanne pursue Reuben. He was her target and her possession now. Fifteen thousand was not a small sum, and she was afraid of being bothered by her uncle’s family. Staying in a hotel was not secure, but if Joanne helped her block them, it wouldn’t be a problem.

Hence, she didn’t mind using Joanne.

Sure enough, Joanne took the initiative to offer to help Jodie arrange a place to stay.

Joanne also wanted to use Jodie to get closer to her man.

Both of them had different intentions, but their goal was the same-Reuben.

At Gray Entertainment’s president’s office, Titus knew as soon as he heard that his brother was on the phone with Jodie.

Today was indeed the day Jodie was released.

He looked at Reuben and asked, “You helped Jodie avoid prison, didn’t you? Aren’t you afraid Mom will find out and cause a scene?

Reuben shrugged. ‘I didn’t do anything

Titus sneered upon hearing that. “Stop pretending. Everyone knows what’s going on. Don’t forget that Jodie is a thorn in our family’s side, especially in Mom’s heart.”

At that, Reuben commented, “After this money transfer, I won’t help her anymore Consider it the end of our sibling bond”

Titus karw his older brother well.

Raising an eyebrow, he asked, “Reuben, aren’t you afraid of stirring up trouble?

Reuben also raised an eyebrow and replied, “What kind of trouble could I stir up:Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

Titus cautioned, “You are now Jodie’s main support. Do you truly believe you can escape if you stop assisting her?”

“As long as I give her a little attention, she will continue to seek my help, no?” Reuben chuckled.

“Joanne is also known for being difficult and demanding. Dealing with both of them will be challenging for you, Titus retorted.

Reuben laughed. “You’re overthinking things. I will assist Jodic this one time, but I won’t indulge her if she continues to bother me.

He emphasized, “I don’t want Mom and Dad to find out about these matters.”

Titus rolled his eyes before muttering. “I am not a gossip. I won’t go running to Mom and Dad:

With his arms crossed, he smirked and said, “If you don’t heed your little brother’s advice, I will simply sit back and watch the situation unfold.”

Knowing Jodie well. Titus suspected that she would target the eldest brother and entangle him in another type of relationship.

And Joanne was not someone to be underestimated either.

Reuben underestimated women.

Those two women were not easily manipulated, and most likely, they would cause trouble.

But he wouldn’t remind them any further.

All four brothers and their birth mother had experienced Jodie’s ‘care, and now it was Reuben’s turn.

Regardless, Titus had given his advice, but Reuben didn’t listen.

After all, it was Reuben who provoked them. If something went wrong in the future, it would be his own fault.

Meanwhile, Reuben didn’t take his younger brother’s words seriously.

With a confident smile, he said, “You might be disappointed. There won’t be any drama.”

Titus smirked before commenting, “We’ll see about that.”
