When Rejo entered the room, Burton had already been pacified by Nics. In fact, he had only
made a gesture to hit and hadn''t really touched Georgina. Burton was merciless to his sons, but he
didn''t have the heart to punish his daughters and granddaughters. And his only grandson too. When
Frank tried to teach Jason a lesson back then, he had been hit by Burton''s cane so badly that he
was confined to bed.
Georgina saw Rejo standing on the side and felt regretful about her wretched appearance from
avoiding Burton. Ovee with jealousy, she pointed at Rejo and rasped, "Grandpa, you don''t
know what I saw today. Rejo was trying to seduce Jason. She went to his room in just her
pajamas. If I hadn''t caught her, who knows what she would have done? I was angry about her
indecency and wanted to teach her a lesson. Unexpectedly, she is so cunning that she deliberately
rushed to Jason, and I identally burned him. Grandpa, it all arose from her. If she hadn''t seduced
Jason, the ident wouldn''t have happened. We can''t let this kind of person stay in the house.
She''ll definitely stir up trouble."
Once the words were out of Georgina''s mouth, Rejo felt the heat of everyone''s gaze on her face.
Amazement, realization, contempt, and disdain were all present in their eyes. It was as if they
couldn''t wait to strip her bare and force her to ept their judgment.
Burton''s scrutinizing gaze was sharp, making Rejo''s cheeks ache. She dug her nails into the
palm of her hand, and the sharp pain reminded her of the situation she was in. If she couldn''t prove
her innocence, not only would she be despised by everyone, but so would Jacquelyn.
Before Rejo could even think of a response, Jacquelyn was shaking with anger. "What do you
mean by that? I know you don''t like us, but don''t even think about driving us away with such dirty
tricks. Even if you don''t care about Rejo''s reputation, what about Jason''s? He is your sister.
Forget it! Why am I even talking to you about this? Rejo, let''s go!"
"Oh." Rejo felt that there was no longer any need for her to be there. Jacquelyn alone was
enough to crush Georgina.
More importantly, she was weak-minded. If she truly had nothing to do with Jason, she would have
pped Georgina for the nder. But she had indeed slept in Jason''s room the night before and
couldn''t refute Georgina with a clear conscience. She could only hang her head and y the part of
an honest person.
Since Jacquelyn said so, she was more than d to cooperate. She didn''t want to stay at that ce
at all. The thought of Jason''s incessant harassment and its negative impact on her mood made her
want to move out as soon as possible. So, when Jacquelyn finished speaking, Rejo quickly
grabbed her hand and led her to leave. "This is great, mom. Let''s go back to our apartment. It''s
more convenient for me to go to work from there. Don''t worry about anything. I''ll get a raise this
year, and we won''t starve."
The joy on Rejo''s face was so real that Jacquelyn couldn''t speak. It also made Burton, who had
been skeptical about it, disbelieve Georgina''s words.
In an attempt to make Jacquelyn stay, he quickly said, "Georgina doesn''t know any better, so please
don''t take it to heart. You are my legal wife and a member of this family. This is your home, so
where else could you go? Alright, everyone can leave now."
Rejo''s hand suddenly hurt as Jacquelyn''s nails dug into her wrist. She looked up and saw the
struggle in Jacquelyn''s eyes. Rejo understood that she was torn.
Burton was clearly biased. Georgina had called Jacquelyn a vixen, but Burton still intended to
smooth things over, which might make everyone know her low position in the family. Perhaps even
the servants in this house would disrespect her.
However, this was a way out for Jacquelyn. The rest depended on her choice.
