Chapter 541
Jessie hadn't expected things to turn out like this. She screamed and cursed, "You can't do this to me. I'm Jeanie's aunt! I won't rest until you get my son out of jail! You wouldn't even be here if Jeanie hadn't saved you back then! You can't be this ungrateful, Brad Hamilton!"
Brad's bodyguards weren't ones to play nice. When they noticed Brad's increasingly grim expression, they dragged her away, leaving only the sound of Jessie's anguished cries and her lingering resentment behind.
A sizable crowd was drawn by the commotion, and some even whipped out their phones to capture the moment for social media. After all, this was a scandal involving Brad. A casual post with an eye-catching caption would surely rack up millions of views in no time. It was practically a surefire way to go viral.
The bodyguards, having dealt with this countless times before, didn't indulge them. They walked over, took their phones, and deleted all the recorded content before handing them back.
Then, they warned, "Should any of you leak what happened today, Hamilton Group's lawyers will sue you into bankruptcy and make sure you won't be able to live a day longer in Janctera City."
Those hoping to leverage Brad's situation for fame were instantly caught off guard. Who could afford to go up against the Hamiltons? Fearful of the consequences, they promptly scattered, knowing better than to cross such an influential family.
Lynn, who had been watching from the sidelines the whole time, finally decided to make her presence known as she walked toward the visibly troubled Brad. When she was a couple of steps away from him, she stopped in her tracks and said respectfully, "Mr. Hamilton, everything Ms. Sawyer's aunt said just now was a lie. You musn't believe her!
"I can assure you that Ms. Sawyer is innocent. Her aunt is just desperate to get her son out of jail and doesn't care about the truth. She's just spewing nonsense.
"Ms. Sawyer has missed you so much that she has hardly eaten these past few days. She's lost a significant amount of weight. You really shouldn't let such a vile person cloud your judgment!"
Lynn knew all too well that if she didn't stand up for Jean, and Brad turned his back on the latter, she'd never have another chance to see him again. A man of his caliber was far out of her league. If it hadn't been for Jean, she might not have ever had the opportunity to meet Brad at all.
Lyn could only continue to see him if she protected Jean. That wretched Jessie- why did she have to pick the worst possible time to stir up trouble? What a despicable creature!
Noticing Brad's silence and the grim expression on his face, she figured he had taken her words to heart.
Quickly, she added, "Mr. Hamilton, that woman is despicable. If you don't believe me, you can look into her entire family. Her son's a degenerate, involved in all kinds of vices-drinking, gambling, you name it.
"He ended up in prison because he raped a female student and got sued by her parents. You can't believe the words of someone who birthed that kind of trash!"
Lynn's goal was to preserve
whatever goodwill Brad had for Jeannoveldrama
while making her own presence known. She had been watching from the sidelines ever since Jessie caused a scene, and she had already planned her next course of action.
However, Brad remained stoic and silent. His lips were pressed into a straight line, and his gaze was icy as he stood there like a statue. He didn't even spare Lynn a single glance.
In reality, he hadn't heard a word Lynn said. His thoughts were completely consumed by what Jessie had just revealed. Jean had actually hired someone to
run Nadine over. How could she do something like that?
He remembered that Jean had always been a gentle, kind, and beautiful young lady. Whenever she saw an injured animal, she would help it and be saddened by its suffering. If she encountered a beggar as she walked down the street, she'd give them whatever she had on her, even if it left her with nothing.
And when their classmates were in trouble, she'd be the first to offer help, even though she was just a high school student as well. She wouldn't even step on an ant. How could such a person harbor such malicious intentions?
