"It's not your fault.
The influence of the James family in California is no less than the influence of the Redford family in New York.
The entire James family cherishes Ms. Jade like a treasure, and even top-level hackers can't find much information about her..."
John quickly comforted, "Jennifer, don't worry.
I'll try to contact the James family from multiple angles.
As long as they see the caller's name; Doctor Claris', they will surely send the medical records themselves.
By then, you can visit Ms. Jade without sneaking around like this..."
"...Let's go!"
Jennifer forced a bitter smile and left the sanatorium with a heavy heart.
If it weren't for the fear of aggravating her mother's condition, wouldn't she want to appear in front of Mrs. Jade openly?
As soon as the two stepped out of the door, a vase suddenly fell from the sky.
"Watch out!"
Jennifer quickly reacted, kicking John aside and protecting her belly.
The vase brushed past her arm and shattered on the ground.
Jennifer's heart raced as she quietly comforted the baby, "Don't be scared, Mama is okay."
"Damn, who's dropping things from the sky in broad daylight?
Are they looking for death?"
John got up, about to go upstairs to find and beat the culprit when a beautiful figure poked her head out, surprised to see the two downstairs,
"Ah... fortunately it didn't hit anyone.
Lillian, why are you so reckless?
You almost hurt someone!"
A pure white chubby cat jumped down from her hand, crouching on the balcony with an innocent look, letting out a cautious meow.
"Sonia!"
Jennifer's eyes instantly turned cold,
"Are you courting death?"
Quickly, Sonia came downstairs with a handful of messy medicines, and apologized while grabbing Jennifer's wrist, "I'm sorry, sister.
Lillian is the cat I bought for Mother.
She really likes her... It's just that the cat is a bit mischievous.
It accidentally knocked over the vase while playing just now, I didn't expect that it would almost hit you...
If you or your friend got hurt, let me help you apply medicine..."
Seeing the cold look on Jennifer's face, Sonia bit her lip and said, "If you're really angry, just hit me."
John was disgusted, "Don't act in front of me!
I share a close bond with Jennifer, so anyone against her is an enemy to my entire family!
To tell you the truth, I'm the leader behind those keyboard warriors that bash and denounce you online—Jennifer may be merciful, but only because she doesn't want to hurt you for her mother's sake.
However, that doesn't mean you can touch her!
I'm always watching you, and if you try anything again, I'll make you leave the entertainment industry for good."
"You..." Sonia's face changed, and she looked wronged, "Sister, is this your new boyfriend?
It seems like he has misunderstood me."
"Don't call me sister, are you born deaf or brain-damaged? can't you understand Simple human language?" Jennifer emotionlessly pushed her away, "My mother only gave birth to me!
A fake will always be a fake.
I don't have the time to waste on you right now... When Mrs. Susan wakes up, she will be your biggest retribution!"
Sonia's downcast eyes flashed a fierce glint, and she bit her lip, "As for those photos and videos, is mother really still alive?"
"Looks like you've been quite shocked!"
John replied first, "Upon Jennifer's order, I, despite being afraid of ghosts, took a 360-degree no-dead-angle snapshot of Ms. Susan's various moments of life and death!
Sonia, remember to check the USB drive.
It contains more than twenty surgical procedures on Ms. Susan after the explosion, which is too gruesome to behold!
I guarantee you won't be scared of ghost movies anymore, as none can compare to the cruelty and horror of human nature."
Sonia's lips trembled for a moment before regaining her composure.
She smiled at John,
"Future brother-in-law, do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
Not waiting for John to speak, she affectionately took Jennifer's hand, "Sorry, my sister and I have some private matters to discuss.
Gentlemen, please do not disturb."
After pulling her to the artificial hill, Sonia's hand was icy cold as she fiercely gripped Jennifer's wrist, her tone aggrieved, "Sis, have you misunderstood something?
When you and our parents had an explosion, villagers said it was you who killed them in an emotional outburst... Of course, I didn't believe them.
If I hadn't cleared your name, the police would have knocked on our door long ago."
She took a deep breath, "Since mom is still alive, it's a great surprise for both of us...
Please take me to see her!
Even if I were adopted, she has raised me for over twenty years.
I'll forever be their daughter and your sister."
Jennifer laughed in anger, "Sonia, have you come to believe your own lies after repeating them hundreds of times?
You can alter your appearance, fabricate lies, silence witnesses, and erase the past...
However, one thing cannot be changed - your dirty, despicable genes, your stinking, rotten blood.
With just a single DNA test, I can expose you and have you chased down by the James family to the ends of the earth."
Abruptly, she stepped forward and pushed Sonia against the artificial hill.
Listening to the girl's cries of pain, she smiled even brighter,
"The James father and son, their temperament and means - you cannot bear deceiving them!
So you find every possible way to get closer to Colton Redford..."
Sonia, choked by her tears, stubbornly insisted, "Don't talk nonsense.
My feelings for Colton are genuine."
"Your sincerity is worthless!"
Jennifer mercilessly exposed her schemes,
"Are you thinking - even if one day I expose your identity, you'll just be a poor girl deceived by rural parents at most?
By then, you'd still have the emotional dependence of the James family, the title of Mrs. Redford , and even the thriving career development that comes from those statuses!
What a move for gaining something out of nothing...
You have a perfect plan!"
Sonia's face turned from pale to blue, staring at Jennifer for a long while before stroking her cheek tenderly, saying softly, "Sis, you really are the person who understands me best.
But what can I do?
Mom can't leave me now, and I handle everything for her, even more than dad and my brothers in her heart.
I'm genuinely worried - without me, will mom be able to go on?"
"Sonia!"
Jennifer's face changed, and she wanted to smash her smug expression with a fist but thought of James mother, whose condition was serious, and suppressed her killing intent.
She grabbed Sonia's neck fiercely,
"If you dare to hurt her, I'll make you die!"
Due to the intense suffocation, Sonia's face turned red but a smile lingered in her eyes.
Struggling to breathe, she gasped,
"How I treat mom depends on how you treat me...dear sister!"
