Chapter 230 Unfortunately, You Don't Deserve It
"Match," Jackson said in a low tone, and Harry then handed over the matchbox.
Jackson lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, and exhaled a faint smoke.
Mary and the other two inexplicably quieted down, looking at Jackson nervously, both afraid and expectant.
At this moment, he was the one controlling their fate.
Jackson took another puff on his cigarette and threw the matchbox in his hand far away.
Tears welled up in the eyes of Mary and the others. They felt as if they had escaped death.
Jackson raised an eyebrow and asked, "Do you really understand your mistake now and dare not repeat it?"
Mary immediately nodded. "I understand. I won't do it again. I will make sure Lillian goes abroad to study well. As a mother, I also hope she has a bright future."
Jackson nodded. Just as Mary and the others forced a stiff smile, he sneered lightly and said, "Why does the promise sound so familiar to me? I remember you said the same thing two years ago. Didn't you forget?"
Mary froze, her face trembling with fear.
Of course, she hadn't forgotten.
At that time, Lillian married Jackson and officially became the young lady of the Frane family. She felt like she had become a legitimate member of the Frane family and should receive gifts from them, so she brought relatives to the Frane family.
To calm things down, Daisy gave Mary an apartment and sent her away. But once Mary reaped the benefits, she couldn't stop there.
Mary went back again and again until Jackson returned from a business trip and personally warned her.
At that time, she also promised not to bother Lillian again, behaving herself for a long time. But later, she found out that Jackson was not often in the country, and his relationship with Lillian was not that good.
Over time, she started having other thoughts.
"I really won't do it this time. Mr. Frane, please give me another chance," Mary pleaded.
Jackson flicked the cigarette ash with his slender fingers and said softly, "There is only one person worthy of my second chance. Unfortunately, you don't deserve it."
As Jackson finished speaking, he flicked off the deep red cigarette ash from his fingers.
Instantly, screams and flames erupted.
Over there, Lillian bid farewell to Jackson Frane and hurried to the hospital.
The hospital matter was not yet settled, and Shirley should still be there.
However, before Lillian reached the hospital, she received a call from the police station, asking her to come over as Shirley was there.
Lillian thought Shirley was in trouble again and rushed to the police station.
When she arrived at the office, she saw Shirley standing there unharmed, engaging in a physical challenge with two young male police officers, surrounded by a few other officers, creating a lively scene.
"Lillian, you're here." Seeing Lillian, Shirley waved and smiled at her.
Several police officers present looked over, and Lillian smiled awkwardly, stepping forward to hold Shirley, and hurriedly asked, "What's going on here?"
Shirley winked at Lillian and proudly said, "It's about the incident at the hospital. I called the police. Mary and the others were set up. The police will find out who was behind it and do us justice. You were also called here for them to understand the situation and take statements.""
Lillian knew this matter was not simple, but she didn't expect Shirley to call the police after she left.
The police officer in charge of the case gestured for Lillian to come over, and Shirley pulled Lillian aside, whispering quickly in her ear, "Wendy and Rose have been arrested and caught on the spot. Just cooperate with the questioning."
Lillian thought, 'Wendy and Rose were arrested?
'What's going on now? '
Lillian didn't believe that the police were really quick in handling the case.
