Chapter 691

Jade carefully placed the items on the bedside table next to Becky, pulled up a chair, and sat down. With a gentle smile, she asked, "Do you feel any better now?"Becky’s injuries weren’t limited to her face—they were all over her body.While the wounds on her face were more numerous and seemed alarming, they were completely treatable and would heal with time. Given her young age, her ability to heal was strong, and the likelihood of scarring was minimal.The doctors had already explained these possibilities to Becky, and she understood them well. Upon seeing Jade’s comforting smile, Becky’s guard lowered slightly, and she nodded softly. "Thank you."As Becky spoke, she kept glancing out the window, as if fearing something.Jade followed her gaze but saw no one outside. She quickly realized what was troubling Becky. "Are you afraid your stepmother might come in?"At the mention of Rita, fear washed over Becky’s face. She nodded, then quickly shook her head, denying it. "No, my

If someone had extended a helping hand to Becky when she was younger, would her destiny have been different?Becky stared at Jade in shock. Realizing what had happened, she got out of bed and knelt on the ground, bowing repeatedly. "Miss Jade, I will never forget your immense kindness. As long as I am alive, I will repay you."Seeing Becky perform such a grand gesture, Jade hurriedly pulled her up. "What are you doing? Get up, please."Jade helped Becky to her feet and seated her back on the bed."I don’t seek repayment," Jade said gently. "Just live well and make the most of your life—that’s the best thanks you can give me."With tears brimming in her eyes, Becky nodded emphatically. "Thank you, Miss Jade. I promise I will live well."Leaving the hospital room, Jade felt a weight lift off her shoulders.After settling Becky’s issue, it was time to update Tiffany."Hello, Tiffany." Jade’s call was answered almost immediately, and Tiffany’s anxious voice came through. "How did i

Ernesto glanced around to ensure no one else was present before nodding solemnly at Jade.He then pulled his phone from his bag, locating a photo that he showed to Jade.Jade took the phone with a puzzled expression, scrutinizing the image of a chaotic scene where students crowded her dorm room to watch the commotion.At first glance, the photo seemed inconsequential, but upon closer inspection, Jade noticed something significant.Although the photo was hastily taken and incomplete, Ernesto had inadvertently captured Jade's desk from an angle that revealed the absence of the drafts.Looking at the students in the room, most appeared curious about the interior, except for one who was exiting with her head down, seemingly holding something.Since only the back of the person was visible, Jade couldn't confirm if she was the thief who had stolen Melanie's drafts. She only noted that the young woman had long hair and no other distinguishing features."Can this serve as a clue?" Ernes

"Is there really a place where things are this unreasonable?" Jade’s worldview was utterly shaken by what Ernesto had encountered. This was Centus, after all. She had no idea who they were up against but found their arrogance baffling.Although Jade wanted to intervene, her own plate was overflowing with messes to clean up. She really didn't have the time to deal with someone else's issues.But if she didn’t step in… 'Ernesto is undoubtedly pitiful.'After some thought, Jade picked up the phone and called Owen. "Hello, Master. A classmate of mine is in a bit of trouble. Could you help sort it out?"After briefly explaining the situation, Owen didn’t hesitate. "No problem. I’ll head over and take a look right away."With Kennedy backing him, Owen held considerable sway in Centus. If the other party had any sense, they wouldn’t dare make things difficult for Ernesto anymore."Ernesto, head over to the gallery first. I’ll have my master meet you there to sort things out," Jade said

Jade's destination wasn’t far from Chenelle's gallery—just a short ten-minute drive.Glancing at the red light ahead, she decisively turned on her right indicator.Ten minutes later, Jade's car came to a stop in front of a gallery. She stepped out, taking a deliberate look at the gallery’s name, "Thinking of Summer".A complex gleam flashed in her eyes. 'Thinking of Summer, how ironic.'With purposeful steps, she walked inside.Chenelle didn't seem surprised by Jade's arrival. This time, however, she abandoned her usual innocent demeanor, glaring at Jade with undisguised hatred."Jade, I've never done anything to displease you. Why are you treating me like this? Slandering me in front of Grandpa, framing me in front of Caelan—I've endured all that. But now you've even targeted my only gallery, sending people to destroy my place. Isn’t that going too far?"Chenelle launched her accusations immediately, giving Jade no chance to defend herself. Her shrill voice echoed through the g

At the time, Chenelle had been in a foul mood and lashed out at the cleaning lady, hurling insults and having her locked up. She even demanded compensation, claiming her painting was worth 10,000 dollars.In truth, 10,000 meant little to her. It was simply unfortunate for the cleaning lady to have crossed her path when she was in such a bad mood, making her the target of her ire."What's going on? Is the person still locked up?" Chenelle asked in a hushed voice, her expression sour as she addressed her assistant.'No wonder Owen demanded someone's release immediately upon arrival.'Chenelle had initially suspected Jade had sent him to cause trouble, feeling a perverse satisfaction at the thought of finally having an excuse to retaliate against Jade. She had deliberately escalated the situation, even slamming herself against a wall and injuring her arm in the process.That led to the earlier scene.The assistant, trembling with fear, nodded slightly. "After locking up that clean

Ernesto broke down in despair, tears streaming down his cheeks as he clenched his fists tightly, glaring at Chenelle with hatred."I'll fight you to the end!"His expression was one of sheer determination as if he was ready to drag Chenelle down with him.This frightened Chenelle so much that she screamed and backed away several steps.Jade quickly grabbed hold of him and whispered, "Ernesto, don't be rash.""But my mother has been locked up by them for more than 12 hours already! Her health is fragile—she hasn't had anything to eat or drink. I’m afraid she might suddenly get sick."As Ernesto spoke, tears fell from his eyes. His mother was everything to him—they relied on each other for survival, and he feared the worst for her.Jade understood his emotions, but now was not the time for him to act recklessly. If Chenelle accused him of deliberate provocation, he could end up being detained."Wait a little longer," Jade said softly, looking at Ernesto with determined eyes. "Tru

Owen pushed Chenelle's assistant forward with a cold snort. "It's a good thing I arrived quickly. I saw this assistant trying to let someone out through the back door. Otherwise, we'd have no way to explain ourselves."The assistant stepped forward, crying. She glanced at Chenelle's livid face and was about to speak when Chenelle screeched, "Vera! I can't believe you would do such a thing! I've always treated you well, entrusted you with important tasks, and this is how you repay me?""Miss Chenelle, I..." The assistant started to defend herself, but a warning look from Chenelle made her lower her head in fear.With Chenelle's backing from the Fitzgerald Group, crossing her could mean she'd never find work in Centus again."No need to explain. You've mismanaged my gallery and caused me so much trouble. I can't keep you on. You're fired effective immediately," Chenelle declared righteously, pushing all the blame onto Vera and absolving herself completely.Jade was genuinely impress

Startled by the voice, the crowd turned to see Jade standing there. Her expression was cold despite the faint smile on her lips.Chenelle shivered involuntarily, a forced smile plastered on her face while her insides churned with frustration. She had shown her sincerity, yet Jade remained relentless, a fact that infuriated her.Despite her thoughts, she had to maintain the appearance of contrition in front of so many guests."Jade, what more do you want?" she asked, her voice tinged with helplessness and a hint of grievance.Chenelle’s words, filled with resignation and sorrow, painted her as an innocent child caught doing something wrong, her eyes welling up with tears."I know I was wrong and have already apologized and offered compensation. If you still aren’t satisfied, just let me know your demands, and I will certainly meet them."Her statement was artfully crafted to position herself as the victim while casting Jade as an unyielding oppressor. The latter part of her plea w

"Oh, the first artwork, huh?" Jade’s tone stretched out with a hint of mockery. "That’s certainly meaningful. Not just a 1,000 dollars, it’s worth even 10,000 dollars. But..."Her voice sharpened abruptly as she continued. "What about this kind of painting?"Somehow, she produced another painting and thrust it in front of everyone.Everyone craned their necks to see and immediately burst into laughter.The painting in Jade’s hand was a chaotic splash of watercolors, a careless mess of colors resembling a child’s scribble, devoid of any artistic merit."Is this supposed to be a painting? It’s hilarious! Haha!""And she wants 10,000 dollars for this? Does she think we’re all fools?"The crowd's peals of laughter echoed.Chenelle’s face flushed with alternating shades of red and white, wishing she could disappear into the ground.She glared at Jade with seething hatred, her nails digging deeply into her palms. 'Jade, I will make you pay!'Just as everyone was anticipating how Ch
