Chapter 425 She Won't Take This Responsibility (3)
Jack's face changed slightly, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Linda couldn't hold back any longer and said, "Haven't you already divorced Jessica? Why do you keep calling her 'wife' so affectionately?"
After all, Gerald was very unhappy about James's divorce, and they could use this to their advantage.
But now, who knew Jessica would come back?
Could it be that they were planning to remarry? To use Gerald's fondness for Jessica to get more assets?
Linda immediately looked like an enraged rabbit and said angrily, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to! No woman can tolerate her husband having an illegitimate child. You're acting with Jessica just to win Mr. Kelly's favor, afraid that Mr. Kelly will hand over the control of the Kelly Corporation to our Jack?"
James's eyes sharpened as he listened to her, suddenly realizing the truth.
He said, "Was it you who told Grandpa about this?"
He should have known that Linda hated him to the core. Even his father had lost all fatherly affection for him because Gerald had directly handed over control to him.
So, Linda would stop at nothing to catch him in a mistake and report it to Gerald.
But he had always thought it was Jessica who did it.
Feeling guilty, James hated Linda even more.
Facing James's sharp gaze, Linda felt a bit scared.
But Jack spoke up at this moment, gritting his teeth, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it. You wronged Jessica first and deceived Grandpa. Why shouldn't my mom expose your true colors?"
James looked at him and sneered, saying quietly, "Spent a few months in Bangkok, and now you're all grown up?"
How dare he talk to him like that.
Just as the tension was about to explode, the door to the hospital room opened, and Jessica came out.
She was stunned, not expecting so many people to be gathered at the door.
Especially when she saw Jack, she felt a bit awkward.
After all, she already knew about Jack's feelings for her.
So, she never knew what expression to use when facing him.
Unexpectedly, Jack greeted her first, "Jessica, long time no see."
He deliberately didn't call her 'sister-in-law,' just to anger James!
Linda scolded, "Why are you talking to her? Have you forgotten how much she hurt you?"
At this moment, George also spoke up, looking deeply at James, "Jack is your younger brother, and Linda is your elder. You should always leave a way out for others, lest you end up isolated and friendless in the future!"
James's expression grew even darker at his words, but he couldn't be bothered to argue with him.
Jessica, however, thought of Gerald's words earlier and couldn't help but feel sorry for James.
Although she didn't have a mother, at least she had a father who loved her.
But what about James?
If Gerald died, who would treat him as family?
Jessica felt an overwhelming sadness and, for the first time, directly opposed George.
She walked to James's side, calmly and firmly saying, "Dad, don't worry. James will never be isolated and friendless. No matter what, he will always have me by his side."
George squinted his eyes, looking at her with some surprise.
In his impression, Jessica had always been very cautious in The Kelly Family.
