Chapter 206 A Lot On My Mind


    Jordan knocked hard on the door outside and asked Irene to open it, but no matter how hard they tried,


    there was no reply. Worried that something would happen to Irene, Jordan turned to look at Dave and


    Kinsey, "It seems that the only way now is to break the door down!"


    Dave and Kinsey had no other way, so they just nodded. Jordan took a few steps back and crashed the


    door open with force. As the door opened, they saw Irene holding her head and sitting on the bed. The


    three of them breathed a sigh of relief.


    Upon seeing the door suddenly opened, Irene was shocked. She stared at the three of them who were


    at the door with her eyes wide open and her face bore a shocked expression. Kinsey closed the door


    and walked to her side, "Irene, you''ve scared us to death!"


    Irene gave her a bitter smile, "Why did youe back?"


    "Uncle Thomas called us toe back. What happened?" Kinsey sat down beside Irene and looked at


    her with concern.


    Irene didn''t know how to tell Kinsey about the matter. She clenched her fingers and kept silent. Kinsey


    did not force her as well and she saw her phone that had been smashed into pieces on the ground.


    She walked over and picked it up, "Who called you just now?"


    "Marie."


    "Marie?" Kinsey was stunned. What did Marie say to Irene that would make her throw her phone to the


    ground? "Marie is just an evil and mean person. You don''t have to take her words seriously."


    Marie was such a vicious woman. She must have exaggerated with her words. Irene should not believe


    her words. However, Dave had personally admitted that he liked her mother. What if there really had


    been some kind of rtionship between Dave and her mother? Irene did not dare to think about it.


    Even though it was highly possible that it was not true, there was still an inkling that it might be!


    Kinsey picked up the phone and put it on her bedside table. She walked to Irene and sat beside her.


    She reached out and held on to Irene''s hand, "Irene, you''re pregnant now. Don''t think too much. It''s not


    good for you and your child."


    Irene still stayed silent. Kinsey held her hand and said, "No matter what happens, I will always be there


    to support you! I''ll be your strongest supporter forever!"


    Looking at Kinsey''s sincere eyes, Irene said with a bitter smile, "Kinsey, I have a lot on my mind."


    "I know, so I''m telling you to not keep all of it in your heart. It''s better for you to speak up."


    "It''s really embarrassing to talk about," Irene took a deep breath and told Kinsey about what happened


    with Dave.


    Kinsey listened to Irene''s words andforted her, "Irene, why don''t you think about it more? Although


    Dave is not your biological uncle, he has been treating you so well just like how a real uncle would for


    all these years. I don''t think you should worry about this."


    "Kinsey, I''m not worried about that. It''s something else. Dave actually liked my mother." Irene smiled


    bitterly, "Although they''re not biologically rted, I still feel ufortable with it."


    Kinsey was shocked. The thing that Irene was worried about was somewhat uneptable for other


    people. She thought for a moment and said, "Irene, Dave isn''t rted to your mother by blood. Our


    country''sws forbid the marriage between blood-rted rtives and coteral rtives within three


    generations. Even if Dave and your mother were together, they did not break thew, even more so


    they did not have an actual rtionship that progressed. It''s just that Dave liked your mother. Love is


    not something that can be controlled by any human. That has happened a long time ago. You should


    just let it go."


    "Kinsey, do you know what Marie said to me?" Irene bit her lips, "She said that Dave was having an


    incestuous rtionship with my mother and Steven caught them in bed together. I-I really can''t


    imagine."


    "Marie is such a vicious woman. What she said must be false." Kinsey shook her head, "Irene, that


    woman must be trying to provoke you. You mustn''t fall into her trap."


    "I don''t believe her either. I''m just afraid. What if it''s true?"


    "Irene, even if it was true, it has nothing to do with you. Again, Dave was not rted by blood to your


    mother. Even if they were together, it wouldn''t be called incest."


    "Kinsey, I know that you''re saying this for my own good, and I also know that I shouldn''t be too worried


    about this. However, I really didn''t want things to be like this, my mom, s-she holds a special


    position in my heart. Steven has already disappointed me immensely. I don''t want my mom to be


    like him, do you understand?"


    Steven had been involved in an affair during his marriage and had caused a huge trauma in Irene''s life.


    If her mother had also been involved with Dave during her marriage, Irene would not be able to ept


    that.


    "Irene, in that case, then you should believe in your mother more. She was definitely not that kind of


    person and she would never let you down." Kinseyforted, "Also, I think you should believe in Dave.


    Since he had dared to say those things to you, it proves that he''s not hiding anything anymore."


    "If he had told me those things earlier, I would have believed him. However, I now know that he had no


    choice but to tell me. If Marie hadn''t threatened him, he would have kept these things in his heart for


    the rest of his life."


    "I think you''ve misunderstood Dave. He didn''t tell you because he didn''t want to bring trouble to you


    and was afraid that you would get hurt. Dave is a person who thinks about you all the time, so you


    should believe him."


    Kinsey was telling the truth. Dave had been very kind to Irene over the years. She should believe in


    him and her mother.


    Kinsey stayed in the room tofort Irene, while Jordan and Dave were sitting on the sofa in the living


    room waiting anxiously. Jordan was impatient and couldn''t help ming Dave, "Why did you tell her


    now? Aren''t you just making things worse?"


    "I didn''t intend to tell Irene about this, but Edric hade to me and talked about Marie. Irene and


    Edric are separated from each other and a big part of it is because of Marie. So, I didn''t feel good,"


    Dave told Jordan what Edric had said to him when they met.


    "Marie has always been more devious than the average person ever since she was a child.


    Additionally, she has done many bad things over the years. I was worried that she would harm Irene,


    so I told her what had happened in the past. At that time, it was just a thought and I had no intention to


    actually tell her. That is, until today, Marie came to see me again. She treated me like I was a fool. She


    suggested strongly that I should take Irene away from here. I was furious, so I said something bad to


    her. Later, I thought that since Marie couldn''t turn over a new leaf anymore, she really would do


    anything to achieve her purpose. I was afraid that she would say ridiculous things to Irene so I thought


    that it would be better for me to tell her myself instead, but I didn''t expect Irene to have such a strong


    reaction."


    "Marie and Myra were like sisters. As the saying goes, once a man dies, the hatred will vanish as well.


    The hatred in Marie should have disappeared after Myra''s death, but it turns out she still keeps it in her


    heart. She even helped Deborah and her daughter to harm Irene several times. That''s so vicious of


    her!" Jordan was very angry, "What benefits did Deborah and her daughter give her so she would help


    them so much?"


    Dave smiled wryly, "She and Deborah share the same thoughts and personality. They''ve done a lot of


    bad things all these years. There must be some unspeakable secrets they share."


    Upon mentioning Deborah, Jordan thought about Myra''s death and he asked, "Do you know anything


    about Deborah?"


    "No," Dave replied, "I used to think that she was a good person, butter I found out that she had an


    affair with Steven behind Myra''s back. You can imagine how bad her character is."


    "For Deborah to be a politician''s wife from just a normal person, she''s not all that simple." Jordan


    sneered, "By the way, have you ever had suspicions about Myra''s death?"


    Dave shook his head, "Myra''s death was an ident. It was a hit and run. Later, he was arrested and


    sentenced to 10 years of prison. At that time, he was initially sentenced to only three years. It was


    Steven who had used his connections and the driver got the heaviest sentence."


    Jordan sneered, "Steven is such a hypocrite. If he hadn''t cheated on her with Deborah, and if Deborah


    hadn''t told Myra about their scandal, Myra wouldn''t have gotten into that ident. He and Deborah are


    the culprits of all this. He did that to the driver just to make himself feel better."


    "What did you say? Deborah had looked for Myra before the ident? How do you know that?" Dave


    was very surprised.


    "My mother told me so," Jordan told Dave everything Lydia told him. "I showed Deborah''s photo to my


    mother. She said that the person who had met Myra at that time was Deborah. I suspect that Myra''s


    death has a lot to do with Deborah."


    Dave could not believe it at all, "Did your mother mistake her for someone else? Deborah might be


    N?vel(D)rama.Org''s content.


    cruel, but she wouldn''t be that vicious and hurt others until that point, would she?"


    "No, my mother recognized Deborah as the person who had met Myra when she saw the photo.


    Talking about being cruel, which of Deborah''s actions aren''t cruel? She has seduced her good friend''s


    husband, harmed Margaret till the brink of death for Lily''s sake and now she even wants to frame Irene.


    Plus, thest time when Kinsey beat Lily up, it appeared like she didn''t make any moves, but she


    secretly asked someone to get revenge on Kinsey. Fortunately, I was there at that time, or the


    consequences would be unimaginable."


    Jordan sneered, "Last time, I was just being suspicious of her, but coupled with what she has done


    recently and the fact that Myra had a car ident after meeting her, I''m almost certain that she must


    have said something to Myra in order to gain the upper hand. She indirectly caused Myra''s death."


    Dave''s face turned pale, "I never knew that Deborah had secretly met Myra. No wonder Myra told me


    on the phone that Steven had cheated on her and he had a child. So Myra''s ident wasn''t a


    coincidence, but it happened because of what Deborah said?"


    He muttered to himself, raising his head. His expression instantly changed, "Irene! You..."


    Nobody knew when Irene''s room door had been opened. Kinsey and Irene stood at the door and


    looked at them motionlessly. It seemed that she had heard everything Jordan just said.


    In front of Dave''s surprised face, Irene walked to Jordan step-by-step and said, "Can you repeat what


    you just said?"
