Chapter 203
The reason Jan hid the child, as Zora suggested, I believe, was to have an ideal scapegoat in Zora
once the truth came out.
I''ve never really believed that Jan genuinely cared for Zora.
After all, Zora was our nanny. Even if she was now dismissed, she couldn''t get rid of thatbel. And I
suspect that Jan''splete trust in Zora stemmed from her unwavering loyalty. Zora was his perfect
puppet.
But in the face of imminent danger, Jan wouldn’t hesitate for a second to use Zora to his advantage,
easily washing his hands clean of everything.
He sure knew how to y his cards, but ns are always outrun by changes. Marissa, that fool, not
only couldn''t keep cool and called the police but also yed the victim publicly.
This put Jan on the back foot again. The child became a hot potato he couldn’t get rid of. No wonder
he''s been indecisive. I guess he''s always ready to go all in.
If things couldn''t be turned around, he could easily escape without a second thought. After all, the
wealth he''s transferred was enough for him to squander for generations! I get it, I get it all!
ra looked at me, tentatively asking, "Mrs. Dawson, you''re not really thinking of saving that child, are
you?"
"The child is innocent, just like you were when you were young. Do you think you were at fault? It was
your father who made the mistake, but Zora took out her anger on you, ruining your life. Is that fair?" I
countered her question.
My counter-question worked. ra was clearly stunned but didn’t respond.N?velDrama.Org content.
"You were an innocent bystander who suffered from the cmity. What about Evan? He''s still so small.
He doesn''t know anything. His mother has no shame, but is that his fault?"
She smiled silently.
"ra, tell me where he is," I asked her earnestly. "I don''t believe your sister would treat him well! You
know Zora is crazy. We should save Evan." I tried to lower my voice, negotiating with ra, so she
wouldn’t think I was arrogant. I was afraid it would trigger her deep-seated darkness. And I knew very
well that I couldn''t get involved directly. If I were to inform the police, it wouldplicate things too
much.
ra''s eyes darkened as she asked me indifferently, "Mrs. Dawson, don''t you really hate these
people? They took your things, slept with your husband, and stole yourpany. Haven''t you ever
thought of getting back at them?"
ra''s words stabbed at my heart.
As we locked eyes, ra added, "Don''t you really care that Jan ignores your existence? Don''t you
really want to take back what belongs to you?"
My eyes narrowed, and my heart skipped a beat. ra''s words were too clear. So clear that I could
sense the reason for hering to talk to me about the child.
What was her purpose? To make me expose Zora? Or to test my limits? But why would she want to
test my limits?
I collected myself and took over her topic, "I do. Medsafe Liyah Inc. is my empire. Of course, I won''t
just stand by and watch someone take it." I said it with certainty. However, the next second, I lowered
my tone, "But honestly, it''s not my everything. Right now, I don''t want my children to get hurt. I just want
to minimize the damage!"
ra looked at me, her eyes filled withplex emotions.
"In other words, between Medsafe Liyah Inc. and my children, thetter is more important to me. As for
Medsafe Liyah Inc.… As long as I want to, I can get everything back!" I said calmly, but my heart was in
turmoil.
ra suddenly stood up, saying indifferently, "I should go, "
"ra!" I called out. After a moment of thought, I said word by word, "You''re not like Zora!"
She turned around, looking at me seriously, "Mrs. Dawson, you have a good heart, but that doesn''t
always lead to good oues!" With that, she turned around without hesitation and walked away,
leaving without looking back, as if she had found some answer and was relieved.
I slowly stood up pondering over the words she had just left behind. What on earth did she mean?
