Chapter 483 You Get Out Of My House


    Jean''s face changed immediately as she saw that Moore was approaching Edna. A worried look


    reced the paleplexion she usually carried.


    ''Dammit, Moore. How can you be so stupid? How can you be such a dumb-o! Can''t you notice that


    Edna holds a lot of grudges against Jade? If she finds out, we''re in for a hell of a lot of trouble.


    Why do you get yourself into this argument and let Edna bay for your blood?


    And Moore, the way I see it, I don''t think Edna is going to let you go so easily this time!" Jean thought


    secretly.


    Edna, on the other hand, was surprised to see Moore getting closer to her step-by-step. The angered


    look she was unting just now dissolved immediately into a professional smile on her face.


    "Are you here looking for me? Let''s get it over with quickly! Did you figure out what happened


    yesterday, Edna?" Moore asked Edna with a poker face. He wasn''t wasting any of his time in


    exchanging pleasantries with this woman.


    "Sure, I did," Edna responded a whileter. She was dazed for a second as Moore''s words registered


    on her mind. She had never expected that the first thing Moore would mention would be the car


    ident from yesterday.


    Instead of giving him an answer, Edna turned to look at Jade. She saw that Jade was standing nearby


    with an angry look on her face, which made her realize that Moore was actually trying to help Jade


    instead of helping her.


    At the other side, Zed and Jean had also never imagined that Moore would go directly speak to Edna


    about that car ident. Their faces changed instantly after hearing his words.


    They hadn''t told Jade about the car ident yet!


    ''If my mother finds out what happened yesterday, this whole event is going to get a lot worse, '' Zed


    thought secretly.


    "Hanley says he didn''t do it. It''s not him. Hanley and I went to the police station yesterday. Whatever


    happened, it wasn''t Hanley''s trick. And he has no reason to lie, neither do I," Edna continued and


    looked at Moore with that smile again.


    "Really?" Moore dejected instantly as a sneer passed across his face. "Is that your exnation, Edna?


    Is that the best you can give? Oh wait, of course! That''s how you do things!"


    "Do we have any misunderstandings, Mr. Moore? Or are you prejudiced against my little boy Hanley? If


    you don''t trust me, you can go to the police station to check for more details. Hanley doesn''t know


    those people at all. How could it be him? Mr. Moore, you shouldn''t wrongfully use an innocent


    person. He didn''t rig the car ident you were in."


    Though Edna was still wearing a smile, her words didn''t reflect that any more.


    "What car ident?" Jade didn''t understand what the two of them were talking about. She realized that


    there was something really important which she had missed. She interjected with her question.


    Zed and Jean''s face changed again.


    Inevitably, Jade had gotten suspicious from their sentences and was now, intending to find out the


    truth. That was why she had asked.


    "Don''t you know?" Edna looked at Jade and asked with a surprised look on her face. Then she


    continued,"Mr. Moore''s car collided with another yesterday and he used my son of arranging for


    some young men to do that. But as far as I know, my son is innocent."


    Jade''s face darkened when she heard about the car ident. She turned to look at Jean and asked


    sternly,"Jean, is that the reason you came back sotest night? Were you in that ident too?"


    "I will exin itter, mother," Zed immediately tried to smoothen the whole situation.


    Edna realized something and instantly added,"Evidently you don''t know what happened, Jade! As far


    as I know, Mrs. Jean was sitting in the car, too. You...."


    Jade looked fiercely at Edna''s face and snapped,"Edna Huang, stop it! Shut up! You''re not wee.


    You get out of my house right now!"


    Seeing that Jade was getting provoked so easily made Edna feel really pleased and she gave a big


    smile, continuing to provoke her even more. "I''m curious why you let a suspicious man stay in your


    house, Jade. I''m talking about Moore. His family name is Bai, yes. But you still don''t know if he is that


    bastard or not! You really should be careful! He may cause real troubles for your family!"


    It seemed like something was going to happen next.


    The dark look on Jade''s face had deepened after hearing Edna''s words. The sight of Edna standing


    there andughing at her made her feel furious and she almost wanted to p her tight. But just at that


    moment, something she had said registered beyond the anger,"What did you mean when you said that


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    his family name is Bai. Are you saying that Moore is that ..." After a bit of thinking, all the pieces came


    together in Jade''s mind and she was dumbstruck! The disgust and confusion she was feeling seemed


    to reach her stomach and make it rumble. She turned her face towards Moore and looked fiercely at


    him.


    Jean was getting more and more anxious by the minute, especially now that Jade had found out


    Moore''s true identity. She had closed her eyes in an effort topose herself and was thinking of


    some ns inwardly.


    ''Edna sure is a wily old fox. She knows well how to change the direction of a conversation and lead it


    somewhere only by a few words.


    And to add to the misery, she knows Jade very well, even better than Jade herself.


    She knows her so well that she can provoke her even after so many years without making much of an


    effort.


    It seems like it is hard to get the whole situation under control.''


    Jean couldn''t figure out a way to control the whole situation just yet, but she knew she had to anyway.


    Therefore, she took a deep breath and then walked over towards Jade. "Mother, how about we talk


    about Moore''s identityter. Now''s not the time for that, you know? Moore is the least of our concerns


    at the moment. Why are you getting provoked by just a few words of a stranger? We should all take a


    deep breath andpose ourselves."


    Zed had nned to stop Jean as soon as he had seen her approach Jade. To him, it wasn''t a good


    idea to get Jean involved in these family affairs. But now, hearing her words, he realized that Jean


    would be the perfect fit to handle the situation, so he withdrew his hand which was still hanging in the


    air.


    A satisfied smile had crept over his face as soon as he had heard her words.


    He trusted Jean was capable of coping with it. He''d always thought Jean was smart.


    Jade herself was stunned for a few seconds by Jean''s words. But a whileter, she understood what


    Jean was trying to say and the anger on her face faded. She thought to herself, ''Jean is right. This is


    not the proper time to ask more details about Moore.


    I should pay more attention to this whole Edna affair. I can''t let her win.


    We haven''t met for almost twenty years. But to this date, Edna still holds that sharp tongue that she


    always used to have.


    If it were not for Jean, I would have lost my ground.''


    She forgot about Moore and became angry on Edna again,"Edna! No matter what you say, I will never


    trust you. If I were you, I would get out of here right now and never show my face here again!"


    "Jade, no matter what happened between us all the way back, we were close friends before and I have


    done for you, I at least deserve a ''Thank you''. And by the way, may I sit down and have a cup of tea?"


    Edna feigned a big smile on her face and asked. She didn''t care about how rude Jade was to her or


    how angry she was. Her very mission was to provoke her right now.


    "Oh Jesus! Do you think I would believe what you are saying? Who knows what tricks you are up to?


    Stop pretending to be kind or friendly! I know you very well!" Jade replied in a sarcastic tone.


    "How can you treat me like that, Jade?" Edna shook her head and a sorrowful look appeared on her


    face. She truly was remarkable in terms of crocodile tears. "Yes, you''re right! I did you wrong! And yes,


    I am to me for the death of your baby, but notpletely! It wasn''t all my fault, you know? You''re the


    one to be med too. The way I see it, it was a punishment from God for what you have done! For


    God, you didn''t deserve a baby at that time. That''s why you lost it!"


    "Shut the hell up!" Jade''s face was getting paler and paler while she heard what Edna was saying and


    finally, she couldn''t hold it anymore.


    "You know what? I can''t believe it! I can''t believe that even after all this time, you still don''t want to


    admit that you did something wrong, do you? Well, let me tell you and give you a newssh! It was all


    your fault! It was you who took advantage of my innocence and my kindness to create an opportunity


    for you and Sean. It was you who lied to me and forced me to help you get Sean''s love."


    Now Edna hadpletely lost it and was roaring at Jade.


    "What does she mean, Jade?" Sean heard his name but he didn''t know what was going on. He had


    been following the altercation closely but hadn''t figured out the entire story.


    "Nothing..." Jade stammered. There was a panicked look on her face and she wasn''t looking at Sean


    while replying. Her eyes were focused on the ground.


    From her behaviour, Sean clearly understood that Jade was trying to conceal something. Even Jean


    and Zed felt that something was going to happen soon from the turn events were taking.


    ''It seems like Edna hase to my house just to create a scene!'' Zed concluded inwardly.


    "HEY! EDNA! I don''t care what happened in the past! For me, my mother is my father''s legal wife now


    and you''re married to Mr. Gary Bai. You''re his wife and that is the only reason I am being considerate


    and polite towards you right now, you hear me? But if you still want to challenge me, then make sure


    you are prepared because I am not going to take it easy on you then. I will make sure you find out


    exactly what I am capable of!"


    Zed had suddenly stepped forward and intervened. There was fury in his eyes that made her blink.
