Semua Bab The Supreme Heiress: Bab 761 - Bab 770

When Jade arrived, Chenelle was already seated opposite Kennedy, meticulously peeling fruits with the demeanor of an obedient child."Grandpa, have some fruit," Chenelle said, offering a peeled orange to Kennedy with a flattering smile.Kennedy couldn't stand seeing her like this. He always felt her smile was fake, a deliberate act to achieve some ulterior motive. But since she was already there and had done nothing wrong, he couldn't exactly throw her out.Chenelle glanced at Kennedy, noticing his sour expression. She assumed he was troubled by Jade's situation and secretly smiled to herself, though outwardly she displayed a concerned look."Grandpa, I believe there's been a misunderstanding. Jade wouldn't do something like that. The paparazzi must have exaggerated. She was probably just having a meal with a regular friend."Kennedy's hand paused in mid-air as he was about to take the fruit. He glared at Chenelle and couldn't help but reprimand her, "Who told you that was Jade? T

Jade's calm and rational response astounded Chenelle. Anyone else would have lost their composure by now. They would have either exploded in anger or become a panicked mess.Chenelle had expected Jade to slap her in fury, but instead, she received a mild yet cutting sarcastic remark.Despite its calm appearance, the retort was highly damaging. It was clear to the astute Kennedy that this was all a scene orchestrated by Chenelle."Grandpa, I didn't do it! I really didn't! Please believe me," Chenelle turned to Kennedy for help, crying pitifully. "I rely on my hands for my livelihood. I cherish them more than my life. How could I intentionally burn myself to frame Jade, especially under your watch? I wouldn't dare, Grandpa."Kennedy had seen everything clearly. If Jade hadn't dodged quickly, the scalding coffee would have spilled all over her."Enough!" Kennedy roared, looking at Chenelle with disappointment. "I may be old, but my eyes are still sharp. I saw everything just now. Che

From this, it’s evident that it was Chenelle who was lying and framing someone else. Her jealousy nearly resulted in a fatality. Jade felt a chill run through her body as she heard this. How could a teenager harbor such malice? "And then what happened?" Jade pressed on.Kennedy shook his head, letting out a bitter laugh. "Even under my intense questioning, Chenelle refused to tell the truth. She insisted that she had pushed her into the water by accident."In a fit of rage, I struck her hard and sent her to live far away from Caelan. I halved her food portions, clothing, and allowance, hoping it would make her change her ways."But I was too naive. Chenelle was incredibly stubborn. Not only did she not change, but she also started to resent me deeply. She hides her feelings well in front of me, but behind my back, she often curses me."Jade’s frown deepened. Chenelle's actions were indeed chilling. No wonder Kennedy disliked her so much."Grandpa, haven't you noticed? Chenelle

Samuel's words did not ease Caelan's furrowed brows. Instead, they deepened further as he sighed, "But I see Jade smiling more happily with other guys than she does with me."Caelan began to torment himself, wondering if he was not good enough, not perfect enough. Otherwise, why would so many outstanding men constantly surround Jade?Standing to the side, Samuel was on the verge of tears. How was he supposed to respond to that? If he agreed, he would surely lose his job. If he disagreed, it would seem too insincere.After pondering for a while, Samuel decided to change the subject. "Don't worry, sir. Orion will no longer be able to act. I’ll handle this personally."For a man to pose a threat to Caelan, he must be formidable. As an assistant, he needed to alleviate his employer's worries. If he couldn't solve such problems, what was the point of being an assistant?Caelan, lost in thought, suddenly lifted his gaze, his eyes sharp as he looked at Samuel. "Who said I wanted to black

The car sped toward Jade's villa, coming to a stop.Caelan immediately took out his phone and called Jade. Just like before, there was no answer. While staring at the tightly shut door, Caelan's heart clenched. 'Could it be true, as Chenelle said, that Jade has fallen for Orion?'..."Hey, can't you two stop this?" Jade sighed in exasperation.She had been perfectly content at home when Tiffany and Melanie had barged in and dragged her out.To make matters worse, they had taken her phone. Their excuse was to make Caelan worry and see if he would dare to disappear again. Most importantly, they wanted to surprise him."Just relax and stay here. Tiffany and I will handle everything else," Melanie said, pressing Jade into a chair and thrusting a makeup brush into her hand. "You just focus on looking beautiful and don't worry about a thing, okay?"Jade couldn't help but laugh. "Can you two stop being so overbearing? I'm the main character here. Can't you show me some respect?"The
