    Chapter 39 I Felt Relieved When It Was Found


    "Miss Lynn,e in quickly. Grandpa has been waiting for you for a long time. I thought you were


    angry and didn''t want toe. I was just thinking about whether to go find you. Luckily, you''re


    here!"


    What a hypocritical woman! Rejo used to think that characters like scheming women were made


    up in novels because in real life, there weren''t so many fools who would be yed by a woman. But


    after hearing what Ingrid said, and seeing Burton nod approvingly at Ingrid and turn to look at her,


    Rejo believed it though Burton was Ingrid''s grandfather.


    "Why are you blocking the door? You women are always so troublesome, making a fuss over small


    matters. Don''t you know that Grandpa needs to rest? Today is thest time. If I find out that


    someone is causing trouble for Grandpa because of small matters again, I''ll make sure they''re all


    kicked out without Grandpa even having to lift a finger!"


    Jason slowly stepped thest step and scolded Ingrid who was smiling at Rejo arrogantly. Ingrid


    looked at Burton with grievances, but Burton was contentedly looking at Jason. His grandson finally


    grew up and cared about him. It was not easy. He had thought he wouldn''t hear a kind word from


    Jason until the day he died!


    Ingrid walked in, looking dejected.


    Since everyone had arrived, Burton tipped Jacquelyn a wink. Jacquelyn pursed her lips, stepped


    forward, and pulled Rejo over. "Joy."


    "I see. I only hope that today''s events can restore my reputation. I won''t care about anything else,


    but if someone uses malicious means to nder me again, I won''t tolerate it!"


    Rejo was pinched on the waist and nced at Jacquelyn''s anxious expression, but she gritted


    her teeth and didn''t intend to change her words. This was herst bottom line. Burton wanted to


    smooth things over and protect his granddaughter''s reputation, which she couldn''t control. She


    could also let Ingrid go, but she absolutely wouldn''t allow anyone to look down on her or use her.


    She made concessions because of Jacquelyn, but it didn''t mean she had to be trampled on.


    Jacquelyn became anxious. Rejo''s words were clearly using Burton. If Rejo offended


    Burton, how could Jacquelyn have a foothold in the Sterling family in the future? Why couldn''t


    Rejo understand her good intentions? She was also nning for Rejo''s future. While she was


    in the Sterling family, Rejo should try to please Burton more and preferably get married during


    this time. Then Rejo''s life in the future wouldn''t be a worry. Everything she did was for Rejo.


    Why couldn''t Rejo suffer a little injustice? Compared to money, power, and status, reputation was


    nothing!


    Jacquelyn med Rejo for being ignorant in her heart, but she knew that Rejo was stubborn


    and was unlikely to back down. She sighed to herself that she had raised a daughter who only


    caused trouble, and had to clean up the mess caused by Rejo.

    "Burton, don''t be angry. Joy is young and doesn''t know any better. We''re all family. Joy, it''s just a


    misunderstanding. In the future, you should get along well with Ingrid and your other sisters!"


    "No, I''m not good enough to be Miss Lynn''s sister. She''s the kind of person who would call the


    police at the drop of a hat. If we upset her, she might call the police on us at any time. Our Sterling


    family can''t handle that kind of trouble!"


    Ingrid pursed her lips and rolled her eyes at Rejo, knowing that Burton had promised her that this


    matter would be handled privately andbeled as a misunderstanding. As long as Burton didn''t


    pursue this matter, she had nothing to fear. So, she began to taunt Rejo again.


    Jacquelyn''s eyes shed with anger. Ingrid was going too far! Ingrid even dared to mock Rejo in


    front of her, so it was not hard to imagine how arrogant Ingrid was in private. Didn''t Ingrid want to


    respect her? Although her status was not good enough for the Sterling family, Burton married her


    legally. Nick''s family was too arrogant!


    Rejo felt that she couldn''t even summon the energy to be angry. Ingrid bullied the weak and


    feared the strong. If she was weaker than Ingrid, Ingrid would torment her by all means.


    So, in the final analysis, it was because of theirck of power.


    Suddenly, Jason said, "Apologize!"


    Ingrid''s face lit up and she looked at Rejo, "Did you hear that? Jason also thinks you are wrong.


    Hurry up and apologize to me!"


    Rejo''s eyes widened. Ingrid not only bullied the weak and feared the strong, but she was also


    stupid!


    Jason was embarrassed by Ingrid''s words. "I was talking to you, Ingrid. You should apologize to


    Rejo, right now!"


    Ingrid still maintained her smug smile. She was so surprised that her expression hadn''t changed.


    She looked at Jason with a twisted and ferocious face. "What did you say?"


    Jason frowned, stared at Ingrid, and said impatiently, "You ndered Rejo for stealing for your


    personal gain, which means that you have a bad character. Grandfather is willing to give you a


    chance to reform yourself, and I won''t object. But you must take responsibility for what you''ve done.


    You framed Rejo and used her of stealing, so you must apologize!"


    "Grandfather said he wouldn''t hold it against me. Jason, who are you to make me apologize?"


    Dream on! Ingrid would never apologize to Rejo!


    Jason red at Ingrid and looked so indifferent. "Who am I? I''m Jason, the legitimate heir of the


    Sterling family. And you? You''re just an illegitimate daughter who can be easily kicked out of the


    Sterling family with a word from me. Don''t you know who you are? You like to bully people with your


    status, don''t you? Today, I''m bullying you with my status. What can you do about it?"


    Ingrid''s face turned pale and stared at Jason in disbelief. She couldn''t believe that he would say


    something like that, but it was indeed something he could say with his power and arrogance.


    Hiry''s face also looked bad. Jason''sment about the illegitimate daughter not only insulted


    Ingrid but also included her.


    Rejo suddenly felt refreshed. All the grievances she had just been feeling from being oppressed


    by Ingrid disappeared. Ingrid looked down on her and thought she could be bullied at will because


    her identity was inferior to Ingrid''s. But now, someone with a higher status was bullying Ingrid. Ingrid


    felt humiliated too!


    "Grandpa!"


    Ingrid pleaded with Burton for help. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Burton eagerly and hoped


    he could speak up for her. If Jason''s words were made public, she would have no status in the


    Sterling family. Fortunately, everyone present was her family, except for Jacquelyn and Rejo.


    Jason raised an eyebrow, sitting up straight and looking at Burton.


    Upon seeing Jason''s expression, Burton knew that he was truly angry. Burton had originally


    nned to smooth things over, but Jason''s words made sense. Ingrid''s character was indeed


    difficult to ept. This would serve as a lesson for her so that she wouldn''t behave this way


    outside. Thus, Burton narrowed his eyes and said, "Ingrid, apologize to Joy. You were wrong."


    Ingrid did not expect even Burton to say this. She suddenly felt that her whole life was bleak. She


    widened her eyes, red at Rejo, and screamed, "No, I won''t apologize. I did nothing wrong. It''s


    all this b*tch''s fault. I will never bow my head!"


    Ingrid red at Rejo viciously, pushed open the door, and ran away.


    Burton was furious, leaning on his cane. "This is outrageous. She doesn''t even follow my order!


    Jason, call your third uncle and ask him how he raised his daughter!"


    "Grandpa, don''t be angry. Ingrid probably just wasn''t thinking straight. She didn''t mean to defy you.


    I''ll go talk to her. Please don''t be angry!"


    Seeing that Ingrid didn''t mention her, Hiry felt relieved and quickly left after speaking ill of Ingrid,


    afraid that Burton would me her.


    Rejo tilted her head to look at Jason and blinked. What she wanted was simple. All she wanted


    was for Burton to admit that it was Ingrid''s fault, not to twist the truth. She didn''t care if Ingrid


    apologized or not. Even if Ingrid did, it would be insincere. She didn''t need it.


    Rejo tugged on Jacquelyn''s sleeve. Jacquelyn suddenly reacted and said, "Oh, I remember that


    Joy has an appointment tonight. I''ll take her to get her hair done first!"


    Then she immediately grabbed Rejo''s hand and left in a hurry.


    Jason and Burton were left there and looked at each other in silence. Jason said, "They have left.


    Grandpa, you don''t have to pretend anymore."


    "I''m not pretending!"


    "Okay, you''re not pretending." Jason shrugged and didn''t expose Burton. "But, Grandpa, I sincerely


    suggest you don''t spoil your granddaughter too much. Look at Ingrid''s behavior. She''s a coward


    who doesn''t dare to admit what she has done!"


    "What''s it to you? Even if she bes a bad influence, she''ll get married and her husband''s family


    will suffer!"


    Even Jason, who was usually very powerful, had nothing to say to that!


    "Why do you keep looking at me?" Rejo couldn''t stand Jacquelyn''s constant nces and asked


    ufortably.


    At this moment, they had already arrived at the scheduled studio and the designer was selecting


    clothes. Jacquelyn closely followed Rejo this time, determined not to let her escape halfway.


    In fact, Rejo felt a bit bored. She had made up her mind to go on a blind date yesterday, but for


    some reason, she suddenly lost interest in it today. Shezily lounged on the couch, staring at her


    WhatsApp. Oh, Jason was online. Should she say hello to him? She hadn''t thanked him for


    teaching Ingrid a lesson. Although he was annoyingly domineering and didn''t take her seriously, the


    fact remained that he had helped her. Yeah, she decided to message him to avoid being


    misunderstood as ungrateful. After all, she and Ingrid were different.


    Rejo slid her finger and clicked on Jason''s portrait.


    "Are you there?"


    ......


    There was no response!


    "Thank you for today!"


    ......


    Still no response!


    Rejo red at her phone, cursing Jason in her heart.


    At this moment, Jason was still in the Sterling family. After leaving Burton''s room, he simply


    canceled all his ns for the day and went swimming in the pool. After a fewps, hey down by


    the pool and ordered the servant to bring him drinks. The servant brought him red wine and fruit.


    Jason casually nced at the servant, picked up the wine, and took a sip. "You did a good job


    today."


    The servant''s eyes lit up, "Thank you, Mr. Sterling. The time was tight. I will prepare better next


    time. There were some ws in my arrangements, or the ne wouldn''t be found in Miss Lynn''s


    room."


    Jason nced at the servant. "No, I only felt relieved when the ne was found!"
