Chapter 504 The Only Person She Can't Stop Worrying About (2)
She was extremely depressed, threw her phone aside, and walked down the stairs.
Although it was only eight o'clock, Louisa had woken up early, and breakfast had ended at seven.
At this moment, Louisa was sitting on the sofa, looking melancholic, as if she was deep in thought.
Seeing Jessica come down, she said discontentedly, "Ever since you came back, things have been non-stop. I really don't understand, since you're with James, why don't you stay with The Kelly Family? Why do you keep running back to your parents' house every few days?"
Jessica asked, baffled, "What did I do wrong this time?"
After all, Louisa had always treated her this way.
When she needed her, she welcomed her with a smile; when she didn't, she treated her like she wasn't even her granddaughter.
Almost like an enemy!
Louisa snorted coldly and said, "Your dad left early this morning, looking troubled, without even having breakfast. When you're not here, everything is fine. But as soon as you come, your dad has worries? You're old enough now, can't you let the elders have some peace of mind?"
Listening to Louisa's string of accusations, Jessica felt extremely wronged.
So, she said, "Grandmother, this is my dad's house. He's your son and my dad! If you can live here, why can't I come home?"
Louisa was rendered speechless by her retort. She took a deep breath, pointed at Jessica, her eyes particularly sharp.
She said word by word, "Let me tell you, you don't belong to The Evans family at all!"
Jessica's heart skipped a beat, looking at Louisa in disbelief, "Grandmother, what do you mean by that?"
Thinking of John's instructions, Louisa swallowed all her dissatisfaction.
She looked deeply at Jessica and said, "I just hope you never understand."
After saying that, Louisa, leaning on her cane, walked to her room by herself.
Prestige Law Firm.
Michael was very surprised to see John.
He didn't expect that the culprit who had colluded with Adam to kill his father years ago would dare to come and stand in front of him.
"Mr. Evans, long time no see. What brings you here today?" Michael sat on the sofa in the reception room, poured himself a cup of freshly brewed tea, and smirked, "Could it be that your company has encountered some legal issues recently and needs a lawyer?"
Looking at him, John felt that he really resembled the face that often appeared in his nightmares.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Lawyer Watson, you're joking. With our status, how could we afford to hire Lawyer Watson? I heard from Jessica that The Stewart family has encountered some issues recently, so I came specifically to ask Lawyer Watson for confirmation."
Michael placed his teacup on the table, making a sound that was neither too loud nor too soft, which made John's heart tense up.
So, Michael was indeed that person's son?
"Mr. Evans, actually, some things are very clear in your heart. Debts must always be repaid. But you have a good daughter, someone is willing to protect you. If you're smart, you should know not to meddle in other people's business!"
Michael's voice was cold, without a trace of warmth.
John could even hear the suppressed anger and murderous intent in his voice.
Finally, the fear and regret of these years were completely released at this moment.
Looking at him, John asked, "Now, to get revenge on Adam, you've targeted Lily. Is the next target me and our Jessica?"
"What do you think?"
