    Chapter 147 A Strange Feeling


    s


    Andrew had misunderstood Tracy and now needed to figure out the truth so she could forgive him.


    Among the people in Cloudville, Andrew stood out. People like Winona, who acted recklessly because of her family’s money and ignorance, were always super careful around him.


    With Andrew giving her that fierce stare, Winona got scared and turned even paler. She quickly tried to defend herself, “It wasn’t me. It was …”


    “Andrew!” Erin suddenly shouted, rushing forward to grab his hand and shield Winona behind her.


    “Andrew, maybe this is just a misunderstanding.”


    “The surveince footage is right here! What misunderstanding are you talking about?!”


    It was the first time Andrew had cut Erin off mid-sentence, and his tone showed how annoyed he was.


    She looked shocked by his outburst, her eyes quickly filling with tears. “Andrew…”


    Her trembling voice cooled off his anger like a ssh of cold water.


    He took a deep breath to calm down. “Erin, I’m not mad at you, but Winona truly crossed the line.”


    Seeing his anger fade, Erin rxed a bit, but her voice still had a soft sob. “You always care about me. I know you’re upset because of me.


    “But you’re the CEO of Jackman Enterprise. I don’t want you to lose face in front of everyone just because of me.”


    Her gentle and understanding tone softened Andrew’s heart.


    Having such a thoughtful sister felt like a blessing he must have earned in a past life, and he promised himself to always treat Erin well.


    Erin had a calming effect on him, quickly wiping away his anger and making him forget about ming Winona.


    She sighed in relief and said again, “Winona and Tracy have never gotten along since they were kids. Winona probably just messed up this time. She knows she was wrong, and I don’t me her. So please, let’s cut her some ck.”


    With her innocent, teary eyes, she looked at everyone, making her seem so pitiful that it softened their


    hearts.


    “Ms. Jackman is so kind and beautiful! If it were me, I’d be furious if my birthday got ruined.”


    “Yeah, I’ve never met someone as kind as Ms. Jackman.”


    “We’re all guests here. Since Ms. Jackman said it’s fine, we shouldn’t say anything more.”


    “Today is her birthday. It’s such a wonderful day. Let’s just forget all the bad stuff.”

    s


    Everyone praised Erin and quickly brushed the whole thing off with a few kind words.


    Smiles returned to faces, and the mood warmed up, as if all the earlier tension had disappeared.


    Watching such a scene, Tracy’s eyes grew a bit wider, and her pupils trembled.


    She’d seen that happen before.


    Even when she had proof she was innocent, Erin’s few tearful words always stole the spotlight, letting everyone forget about the real issue.


    No one ever apologized for how badly Tracy was treated. Even when those things came upter, she still got med.


    Back then, Tracy feltpletely abandoned by the world. Her sadness and grief overwhelmed her, leaving no room for anything else.


    But now, going through it again, it all felt so strange.


    It was like a cold, creepy wind crawling up her spine.


    Maybe because she sensed Tracy’s stare, Erin suddenly turned and met her eyes.


    She pouted, her expression aggrieved yet forbearing. “Tracy, I’m sorry for Winona. She framed you because she was confused. Can you please not be mad at her?”


    Erin’s eyes were red and locked on Tracy, like she might start crying if Tracy didn’t agree.


    Maybe because of that weird feeling from before, Tracy instinctively stepped back, her face guarded.


    Seeing Tracy’s reaction, Erin instantly looked sadder, her voice trembling even more like she’d been wronged. “Tracy … ”


    Liam, who’d been slow to react, stepped up quickly, frowning. “Tracy, don’t push it too far.


    “Erin is the one who has been wronged here. She’s willing to take the me and back down. So why are you still being so stubborn?”


    Liam was always impulsive, so it wasn’t surprising he was the first to defend Erin.


    But over the years, it was the first time he talked to Tracy without yelling or being harsh.


    Since the kidnapper had recanted his testimony, Liam always felt a little guilty when he faced Tracy.


    Ronald had been watching the Jackmans carefully the whole time. He knew the first to speak up would be the brainless Jackmans, and he was ready with some sarcasticments.
