Chapter 219 Awaken From A Coma


    "You are?" Jackson looked at that person doubtfully. Hebed through his memory but could not


    recognise the man in front of him.


    "It''s me, Larry! You don''t recognize me anymore?" The man introduced himself. Jackson had no idea


    who Larry or Leslie or whatever name he had. From his name, he assumed that Larry had to be one of


    the less noticeable small fry gangsters that he used to hang out with.


    "Jackson, when did youe back?" Larry asked him.


    "I just came back today!"


    "Oh, howe no one knew about your return? My bad. Since I''ve run into you, let me wee you


    back," Larry said as he reached out his hand and dragged Jackson over to his car beside him.


    Even a small gangster like him owned a car. Jackson himself did not even have a home. The


    However, having someone care about him was better than nothing. Jackson wanted to find someone to


    catch him up on what was going on anyway. So, he decided to follow Larry to a restaurant nearby.


    Larry ordered a variety of dishes as well as a nice bottle of wine. Him and Jackson enjoyed their feast


    as they chatted away. ording to Larry, some of the gangsters that Jackson used to know had gone


    overseas, some had retired in wealth, while some were in prison. In short, not many of them were


    around anymore.


    After the discussion, Jackson realized that he could no longer rekindle his old profession. The


    gangsters around were all new now, and they definitely would not ept him as their leader. He started


    to be anxious.


    How would he survive if no one would listen to him? Apart from fighting and taking advantage of others,


    he did not really know how to do anything else.


    Jackson thought of his only sister, Rosa. He asked Larry if he knew anything about her and Larry told


    him that she had left town to work, he had no idea where she had gone.


    Then, Jackson thought of Loraine. Speaking of her, he felt so ashamed. That b*tch was really


    something. When he was in his prime, she stuck by him easily and lived off his glory. However, when


    he got into trouble, she immediately turned around and acted as if she didn''t know him at all. She did


    not wait at home for him and even sent his son off to someone else. If he ever found out about her


    whereabouts, he would definitely skin her alive.


    At present, he had nowhere to go, so he had to ask about Loraine''s whereabouts. Considering what


    that b*tch had done, she was most likely afraid of him. If he could find her and exploit her, he would be


    able to livefortably for a while.


    Larry had no idea about Loraine either. When he heard that Jackson had nowhere to stay and no


    money to live, he patted his chest and suggested, "Jackson, if you don''t mind, you can stay with me. I


    won''t let you starve on the streets."


    Jackson was ted. What he needed most right now was a ce to stay. He was extremely grateful to


    Larry. Larry wasn''t joking around either, and after dinner, he immediately brought Jackson over to his


    ce.


    Larry''s ce was pretty decent. Jackson asked him what he was up to nowadays and Larry told him he


    helped oversee a nightclub. Jackson''s eyes lit up at the mention of this. A nightclub was the perfect


    ce for him to work, so he asked Larry to help him find a simr job. Naturally, Larry was very


    agreeable. He told Jackson to rest a couple days. Once he was well rested, Larry would bring him to go


    look for a job.


    If it wasn''t obvious by now, Larry was not some gangster from Cat Alley, instead he was working for


    Edric. Loraine had betrayed the Myers family and done such a horrible thing to his mother despite how


    well they had treated her. Edric naturally could not let this pass. It would be going too easy on Loraine


    to just throw her in jail. He wanted her to suffer, and as Loraine''s ex-partner, Jackson was the perfect


    man for the job.


    Knowing Jackson''s temper, the fact that Loraine had given birth to his son meant that she gotbelled


    as his woman for life. Without his permission, there was no way she could be with any other man.


    However, not only did Loraine remarry, she had also sent Jackson''s son away.


    That was a huge insult to Jackson. If he knew where Loraine was, there was no way he would not


    torture her.


    Hence, Edric purposely arranged for his men to wait at Cat Alley for the down-hearted Jackson. First,


    he wanted to settle Jackson somewhere else, and then let him in on Loraine''s whereabouts. After that,


    all Edric had to do was to let the show unfold.


    After spending a couple days at Larry''s, Jackson asked him again about getting a job. Larry asked


    John for help and John told him to bring Jackson to the nightclub for a couple days and wait for his


    orders. After receiving his orders, Larry immediately arranged for Jackson to work at the nightclub.


    While that was going on, Loraine had already carried out her n with Cecilia. Cecilia''s miscarriage


    became known to Edric, who found the incident weird. Although Loraine was ruthless, Rosa''s baby was


    her grandchild after all, so how could she do that to her own family?


    Was there something behind Cecilia''s identity? He ordered John to investigate her and ended up


    getting a huge surprise. It turned out that Cecilia was Jackson''s younger sister Rosa. That meant that


    she was Tommy''s aunt and they hadmitted incest. It was no wonder Loraine would act so cruelly.


    Edric sneered in his heart. It seemed like he had better tell Tommy what Loraine had done to the child


    in Rosa''s belly. That would definitely cause a rift between them.


    By then, Loraine would have to deal with both father and son at the same time. Edric wanted to see just


    how that b*tch nned to get by.


    While Edric was busy nning out how to deal with Loraine, he received a call from the hospital. The


    doctor had called him to tell him that Margaret was recovering well and she might wake up in the next


    few days. Edric was overjoyed by the news. His mother had always been his biggest worry. If she woke


    up, he would definitely feel a lot more relieved.


    Edric called her caretakers and told them to keep a close eye on her. He instructed them to give him a


    call as soon as his mother woke up and they naturally agreed.


    In thetter half of the night, Margaret finally woke up from hera. Her mind was still in a mess. She


    looked at the strange environment in confusion. It took quite some time for her to regain her senses.


    This was the hospital. She was in the hospital. What was going on? Why was she here? She tried her


    best to recall what had happened but her memories were fuzzy. She could recall Marie''s ferocious


    expression, Deborah''s harsh words and Loraine, that demure woman...She had actually dared to hit


    her!


    Several evil faces shed before her eyes. They had wanted to give saffron to Irene under her name!


    Her grandson! Irene! How were they now? Fear made Margaret squirm in her bed. She could not let


    those evil women hurt her grandson. She pulled off her oxygen mask forcefully and tried to sit up.

    The sudden sounds woke up the caretakers who were on night shift. Seeing that Margaret was awake


    and that she had ripped off her oxygen mask, the two caretakers quickly rushed over. One of them


    pressed the bell to ring for the doctor and then called Edric to inform him that Margaret had woken up.


    Meanwhile the other went up tofort Margaret, "Mrs. Myers, please calm down. The doctor will be


    here soon!"


    "Edric! Quick! H-help me c-call Edric!" Margaret told the caretaker. Meanwhile, the doctor who was on


    duty hurriedly came in. He rushed forward to check on Margaret. Seeing that her vitals were stable, he


    told the caretakers not to panic as heforted Margaret, "Mrs. Myers, calm down. Mr. Myers will be


    here shortly!"


    "The soup, it''s p-poisonous! My grandson...Irene…" Margaret''s words were incoherent. The caretaker


    How could Margaret believe her? She remembered clearly that that evil woman, Loraine had put a n


    B pill into the soup that she had sent to Irene. If Irene drank that, she would definitely have a


    miscarriage, then Margaret''s grandson...


    Margaret did not dare to think of what would happen next. She was terrified. She struggled to get off


    the bed but because she had been in aa for so long, her body was too weak. So, she was unable


    to get down.


    Edric was awakened by the caretaker''s call. He grabbed a coat and drove to the hospital in a hurry.


    When Margaret saw Edric, she grabbed his hand, "Edric...My grandson...How is he?"


    "Mom, the child is fine. Don''t worry," Edric took her hand andforted her.


    "What about Irene? Is she okay?"


    "Irene is fine as well. Take care of yourself. I''ll ask her to bring Eden to see you soon," Edric helped


    Margaret lie back down. As long as her grandson and Irene were fine, Margaret felt relieved.


    She had justid down and sighed when she suddenly sat straight up again, "Edric, is that b*tch


    Loraine still working in our house?"


    Edric nodded. Margaret was extremely worried, "Be careful around that b*tch. She''s too vicious! She


    colluded with someone on the outside to do this. You have to trap her quickly, if not once she realises


    what''s going on, she''ll escape!"


    "Don''t worry. After you fainted, I had already suspected that she had colluded with an outsider to harm


    you. I''ve already been on my guard against her! She can''t run away now!" Edric answered. Sure


    enough, he was right, Loraine was not innocent after all. "Now that you''re awake, I can take my time to


    deal with her."


    "Edric, Loraine is too wicked. She''s like a poisonous snake. She caused our family to be like this.


    I must deal with her myself. I must ruin her to vent my anger!" Margaret gritted her teeth. If it was not


    for her body, she would definitely rush home instantly to give Loraine a harsh scolding.


    "Mom, don''t get too aggravated. You must take good care of yourself first. I''ll take care of the matters


    outside. I''ll make sure you''ll be satisfied!"


    "No! Edric, listen to me. It''s not just Loraine we have to deal with, there''s also Marie and Deborah.


    These people have been plotting against us all this while. They single-handedly did this to our family."


    "I know, Mom. Don''t worry. I''m nning to deal with them. None of them will escape!"


    "No! Edric, you don''t know everything! Those b*tches thought I would die for sure, so before my


    demise, they told me everything," Margaret''s expression was full of resentment.


    "Do you know why Irene couldn''t get pregnant in the three years of marriage with you? Loraine, that


    despicable woman, had given birth control pills to her. And Marie, that foul woman, it turns out that


    there was nothing wrong with Irene at all. However, she betrayed my trust and told me some nonsense


    about Irene being infertile. She purposely created a rift between Irene and I. As for Deborah, in order to


    marry her daughter into our family, not only did she drug Irene, she also performed a vasectomy on


    Irene. Edric, all these years, we''ve been manipted by these people time and time again. We must


    take back an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! None of them can walk away from this!"


    Margaret was out of breath from having said so much in one go. Edric quickly used his hand to help


    soothe her breathing. He was taken aback by his mother''s outburst. He had no idea what there were


    still so many secrets unbeknownst to them. It was a good thing his mother had woken up. Otherwise,


    he might never have found out just how far that horrid group of people had actually gone.


    Margaret slowly calmed down and said, "Edric! Those b*tches are so vicious. We can''t just deal with


    them normally. We must take our revenge on them tenfold!"
