Chapter 36 Marin Goes Crazy
The dead silence reigned all around.
Jazmine’s heart was pounding. A shiver ran down her spine. She could not help but tremble.
Giancarlo laughed angrily. He looked at Jennie coldly. But his eyes were still slits of fury. Only silence filled
the air.
Giancarlo was furious.
Jazmine had been married to Giancarlo for four years, and she knew him very well. Giancarlo was irritated with Jennie. And he would treat Jennie without mercy.
Jazmine hurriedly stood in front of Jennie. She looked at Giancarlo beseechingly and said, “Giancarlo, Jennie didn’t mean that. Don’t be mad.”
Jazmine was thin, but like a hen protecting her chicks, she stood bravely opposite Giancarlo. He was like a fierce eagle that could tear her apart at any moment.
Jennie’s heart skipped a beat. Only then did she realize who she had angered.
She could not afford to offend him. That would put the Fletcher Group in danger.
Jennie was in a dilemma. She can get out of the crisis with Jazmine’s help. But that was not what she wanted. She was here to support Jazmine. But now, she made it worse for Jazmine.
This was not who Jennie was. The worst thing is to be beaten by my dad. Jennie thought.
“Jazmine, walk off. I have to do it for you. Otherwise, they will think they can push you around.” Jennie took Jazmine’s hand. And she wanted Jazmine to stand behind her.
Jazmine was stubborn. She refused to move. She stared long and hard at Giancarlo’s face.
Jazmine and Giancarlo faced off against each other. But suddenly, something changed.
Yoselin was in a state of great anticipation. She couldn’t wait to see Giancarlo slap Jazmine. She wanted to see Jazmine humiliated and disgraced in front of everyone.
Giancarlo narrowed his eyes.
Just when Yoselin thought things were going the way she wanted them to. Giancarlo took Yoselin’s hand and walked away.
He said, “Ms. Fletcher, I hope you’re as brave as you are now when you need to save the Fletcher Group.”
Jazmine collapsed. Jennie hurriedly caught Jazmine. Jazmine smiled gratefully at Jennie. And then, Jazmine
shook her head to show that she was fine.
Jennie suppressed the uneasiness and comforted Jazmine. “See, that’s what you’re supposed to do to scare
those bastards off. You are too weak.”
Jazmine thought. is that so?
Then why am I growing unease?
Jazmine said nothing more to discourage Jennie. And then, Jazmine pulled Jennie out of the hospital. Before Giancarlo grounded her, Jazmine wanted to visit her mother.
Jennie rented an apartment for Marin and hired someone to take care of Marin. After that, she went to see
Jazmine.
Jazmine was very grateful to Jennie.
“Jennie, I can’t express my gratitude. I really don’t know how to thank you.”
As Jazmine spoke, tears almost fell from her eyes.
“Come on. We are best friends. I’d love to do that for you. I think of your mother as my mother. You don’t need to thank me.”
Jazmine would never forget what Jennie had done for her.
The apartment was close to the hospital. It took them ten minutes to drive there.
They saw many people around a building looking up, pointing, and discussing.
For some reason, Jazmine felt uneasy as she saw that. It seemed like something bad was about to happen.
Jazmine and Jennie walked close to that building.
Jennie suddenly exclaimed, “Mrs. Gardner is up there.”
Jazmine’s heart sank instantly. And a shiver ran down her spine.
A woman walked around the top of the building. Looking up from below, Jazmine could see clearly that it was
her mother.
At that moment, Jazmine’s legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. She looked up blankly at the person at the top of the building. It reminded her of the moment before her father fell.
It was just a glance, and that scene had become a nightmare she could not forget.
Now, her mother was on the top of the building like her father did. Jazmine was stunned. She could not think of any way to save her mother. Only a voice in her heart kept shouting, “No.” NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
Jennie ran wildly upstairs. Soon, Jazmine lost sight of Jennie.
And then, Jennie showed up on the top of the building.
This building was only about seven stories high. And it was daytime. Everyone downstairs could see clearly
what was happening on the roof.
At that moment, Jazmine could see nothing but her mother.
Marin looked like she was playing with someone. She murmured to herself. Marín smiled. Jazmine had only seen Marin smile like that when she was a child.
Finally, Jazmine suppressed the fear in her heart and ran upstairs.
Just as Jazmine reached the stairs, she could vaguely hear her mother’s laughter. And Marin was saying something.
Jennie suppressed her voice and said to Marin like she was talking to a child, “Mrs. Gardner, come here. I’ll take you to the person you’re looking for.”
Just now, Marin kept repeating Robert, Jazmine, and meal.
Jazmine’s chest was very painful. She didn’t know if it was fear or the long run.
The people downstairs exclaimed.
Jazmine hurriedly ran over to take a look. And then, she sat on the ground. “Mum…‘
”
Marin had always been in great shape. After this period of attack, she had become much thinner. At this moment, she had climbed to the highest floor of the railing. She looked like she was going to be blown away by the wind.
She did not have any sense of danger. She laughed and said, “Robert, look at what I’m wearing today. If I walk around your company in this outfit, I’m sure people will be very jealous of you.”
Jazmine looked at her mother with tears streaming down her face.
Marin lived entirely in her own world. It seemed like she had gone back to the time when she had just started a successful business with Jazmine’s father.
It was the happiest time of their lives.
“Jazmine, come and help me.” Jazmine heard Jennie’s voice.
Jazmine, who was in despair, got her hopes up again. She hurriedly got up and ran to Jennie.
Jennie was already squatting below Marin. As long as Marin jumped up, Jennie could catch and save Marin.
Jennie only called Jazmine over to make sure Marin was safe. Jennie was worried that she didn’t have enough strength to catch Marin.
Jennie and Jazmine approached Marin. Marin soon noticed them. And the smile on her face instantly disappeared.
The expression on Marin’s face became defensive and angry.
“Go away. Don’t hurt Robert. Or I will kill you.”
As Marin spoke, she waved her hand.
Jennie knew that she had to stop Marin. Otherwise, Marin would fall.
Jennie immediately jumped up and hugged Marin’s legs.
Giancarlo’s car stopped downstairs. Owen exclaimed, “Mr. Tapia, is that Mrs. Gardner?“
