Chapter 38 Feeling Aggrieved


    Chapter 38 Feeling Aggrieved


    Rejo was still a bit vain, but after Ingrid''s contemptuous look, she felt that she should cure Ingrid,


    who was always looking down on others just because of her family background, as if she was so


    noble. The money she was spending was not her own money. If she was really capable, she should


    earn her own money!


    Rejo worked hard to support herself, and she didn''t think Ingrid was in a position to look down on


    her. In her opinion, she was much better than Ingrid, who waspletely dependent on her family''s


    wealth.


    Rejo and Ingrid got into a standoff.


    Jason got impatient, "Since you don''t want to apologize, then go talk to grandpa!"


    Ingrid''s eyshes fluttered slightly. Yes, she still had her grandfather. She was Burton''s own


    granddaughter, and Burton would help her for sure. So, Ingrid replied loudly with her chin held high,


    "I''m going to Grandpa right now!"


    Hiry followed Ingrid hurriedly. She had to watch this fool in case she said anything that might be


    bad for her in front of Grandpa.


    Rejo was about to follow when Jason looked at her, so she stayed where she was. Jason had


    just helped her, and Rejo always remembered the good things that people had done to her and


    forgot about the bad things that they had done to her. She had long forgotten aboutst night and


    smiled at him in a ttery manner.


    Jason pointed to Pa, who was standing in the corner shivering, and told the housekeeper, "Fire


    Pa Thompson and tell the families we have contact with that Mrs. Thompson is a dishonest


    employee and remind them to be careful when hiring her!"


    Pa''s eyes widened at once. Jason''s statement was cutting off the possibility of her going to work


    for another rich family. Her son was waiting for her money. Pa lunged at Jason, "Young Master, I


    was forced to do this. I won''t dare to do it again! Please forgive me this time!"


    "Huh, that''s your reason for framing others? Will you harm me in the future because you are forced


    by others," Jason raised a faint smile and urged the housekeeper, who was standing still, "Didn''t


    you hear me? Get rid of her quickly. Do you want this job or not?"


    The housekeeper did not dare to dy, and got some servants to cover Pa''s mouth and dragged


    her out. Originally, he wanted to say something to Pa because they were kind of distant rtives.


    But Jason was really angry this time, so the housekeeper decided not to cause himself trouble.


    Rejo looked at Jason, who was standing on the side without looking at her, and rubbed the


    ground with her f, "Thank you for today!"


    Jason weighed the monitor in his hand and said, "I helped you and you sent me off with a thank


    you. Rejo, your gratitude is so cheap!"


    Rejo quickly looked up at Jason and was startled by the light in his dark eyes. There was only


    one thing in her head - DANGER!


    She replied cautiously, "You''re so powerful. There''s nothing I have that you don''t have. What else


    can I do but show my gratitude? Saying thank you might not be expensive, but it''s my true gratitude.


    I''ll just keep your help in mind!"


    This is the property of N?-velDrama.Org.


    "Huh, you''re going to get rid of me once you''ve gotten what you want... Rejo, don''t you know that


    Ingrid went to Grandpa... What if Grandpa wants to silence you?" Seeing Rejo away from him,


    Jason was displeased. Was he that horrible? He had helped Rejo several times. What was


    wrong with Rejo''s avoidance of him like he was a serpent? Shouldn''t she have thrown himself at


    him? Why did she act so differently from the others? Sh*t!


    "Oh," Rejo didn''t really care. "Burton is Ingrid''s grandfather. It''s so reasonable for him to favor


    Ingrid. As long as he''s not thinking of sacrificing me to save Ingrid''s reputation, I don''t care what


    story he will tell the others as long as he clears my name!"


    Rejo was prepared for this. This was not the Lynn family. She was in the Sterling family now. And


    if she thought of herself as the same as Ingrid andpared herself to Ingrid and the other Sterling


    girls, she would sooner orter lose her mind and be a person she didn''t even recognize.


    So, Rejo thought it through. She never hoped for anything from Burton, so she didn''t feel


    disappointed. Not to mention, to put it mildly, she was still earning a living under Brady, Ingrid''s


    cousin. People had topromise with reality. Even though she was an upright person, she


    couldn''t keep it up when she ran out of food. As long as the Sterling family didn''t touch her bottom


    line, she didn''t want to fall out with them.


    Hearing Rejo''s words, Jason waspletely furious.


    "Ah... What are you doing?" Rejo looked at the dark-faced Jason in front of her and wondered


    what she had said that had annoyed this unpredictable man. Why was he looking at her with such a


    gloomy expression!


    Rejo was pinned on the door and she pushed Jason, "Let go!"


    "Rejo, Ingrid has her grandfather as her backer, but you also have me as your backer. Do you


    have to be so cowering? How could I let my woman suffer?" Jason pressed his forehead against


    Rejo''s, and looked deeply into Rejo''s eyes to make sure she understood who she was.


    Rejo tilted back, and she felt too much pressure to look at Jason''s eyes. "They are your family. I


    am doing this for your good!"


    ''I''m not your woman! I have nothing to do with you!'' Rejo shouted in her heart.


    "Lair!" Jason unmercifully exposed Rejo.


    "I..."


    "Joy, are you in there?"


    Rejo''s pupils snapped shut and she covered her mouth in fear and shoved Jason, afraid that her


    voice would be heard by Jacquelyn outside the door.


    "Go hide!"


    Jason shook his head slowly.


    "Joy, I''m going in!"


    The door was unlocked!!


    Rejo''s heart thumped. Seeing that Jason really wasn''t going to hide, she pushed Jason away


    and tiptoed herself into the closet. Just as she hid, Jacquelyn pushed the door open. She entered


    the room with a frown. But at the sight of Jason, she froze for a moment and stopped frowning,


    "Jason..."


    ''Wait, isn''t this Joy''s room, and why is Jason here?''


    Jacquelyn looked around the room before not spotting Rejo.


    "Jason, why are you in Joy''s room? Do you know where she''s gone?"


    Jason leaned against the door and stared at Jacquelyn, "I don''t know. Why are you looking for her?"


    Well, Jacquelyn felt that his tone was like she was not as close to Joy as he was to Joy.


    But Jacquelyn didn''t think much of it, just assumed that Jason was mad at Rejo for what had just


    happened. Thinking that he was the heir to the Sterling family, Jacquelyn couldn''t let him have a


    bad impression of Joy, so she put in a good word for Rejo, "That''s right, Ingrid has just gone to


    confess her mistake with Burton. She was just out of her mind. Girls will inevitably have quarrels


    when they stay together. Usually, after a fight, the girls will have a better rtionship than before!


    It''s like boys like to fight, and their rtionships will be strengthened after the fight. I''m looking for


    Joy so she can go up and make up with Ingrid. We''ll still be a familyter!"


    Jason raised an eyebrow and finally looked at Jacquelyn, whom he hadn''t expected to be such a


    woman. He was a little surprised. How did such a vain and selfish woman had raised Rejo, an


    upright girl?


    Jacquelyn was a little ufortable with Jason''s eyes, as if he had seen through all her dark


    schemes. But how could this be possible? Even though Jason was powerful, he was only a boy in


    his early twenties. How could he possibly be able to see through her? It must be that she was


    overthinking.


    But she was also not willing to stay here to wait for Rejo any longer. Because being watched by


    Jason, she always felt inexplicably uneasy and afraid.


    "Since Joy is not here, I''ll look elsewhere. Jason, tell her toe upstairs when you see her!"


    Jason did not respond, making Jacquelyn a little embarrassed. But she did not dare to get angry at


    him, so she left awkwardly.


    After Jason waited for a while, Rejo still didn''te out. Then he heard the faint sound of crying.


    So he walked to the closet and pulled the door open. Seeing Rejo''s eyes were red, he asked,


    "Are you crying?"


    "No, I''m not!"


    Rejo looked like a cat fluffed up and wanted to scratch at the sight of people. She said fiercely,


    "I... I just slept tootest night, and my eyes were dry. I was just rubbing my eyes!"


    "Heh, Rejo, why''s the point of acting strong in front of me? It''s not like I haven''t seen you in a


    mess before!" Jason pulled the girl out of the closet and took a few steps backwards to fall onto the


    bed.


    Rejo was slightly lost in thought.


    He was right. He had seen her at her worst. There was no need for her to pretend in front of Jason.


    With this thought in mind, the grievance in her heart kept rising. She pulled Jason''spel and cried,


    which made Jason, who wanted to take advantage of the situation, find it hard to go further. He


    looked at hispel drenched with her tears and felt that it would be too despicable to take


    advantage of her at this time.


    Rejoined as she cried, "I thought I had it all figured out and knew what was best for me to


    do. But... But she is my mother. She knew I was being wronged, and she helped the bully... I know


    what she''s thinking. But, I''m just aggrieved, I just feel sad, sob..."


    "Okay, okay!" Jason''s eyelids twitched a little as he saw that Rejo was rubbing her tears and snot


    on hispel. Rejo was aggrieved by Jacquelyn herself and intended to make him feel disgusted


    while she had the chance.


    "You think I''m disgusting?" Rejo stared at him with tears in her eyes, as if she could cry at any


    minute.


    Jason could only say against his will, "No!"


    Rejo sniffled and lowered her head, then raised a smile. She then found that she had stained his


    shirt and was a bit embarrassed. She wiped her eyes and got up off Jason, grabbing the tissue on


    her bed and wiping her tears.


    "I''ll go up first. You''d better change your clothes."


    No matter how aggrieved she was, she had to face what wasing. Jason looked at Rejo, who


    wore a sad but gant expression, and looked down at the water stains on his shirt. Then he


    sighed, "I don''t know what I''ve owed you!"


    He got up and caught up with Rejo.


    "You''re not changing your clothes, huh?" Rejo looked at Jason with surprise. She knew how


    serious this guy''s fetish for cleanliness was. How could he bear to wear such a messy shirt? Jason


    frowned with an impatient look on his face, "Who do you think you are? It''s none of your business!"


    This man was in a bad mood now. Because he was ming himself for getting into trouble just


    because he couldn''t see her crying pitifully!


    ''What a bastard!'' Rejo thought to herself and ran a few steps upstairs, lest she wanted to finish


    this guy if she stayed with Jason any longer.


    Knocking on the door, she was greeted by Ingrid''s smug smile.
