Chapter 244 I am so sorry for you
Jacqueline was scared. She wanted to hold Cornel’s hand, hoping that he would help her. But he just
looked at her in disgust.
“Cornel! Believe me! I really didn’t mean it! I never hurt Logan. I never want to hurt him. And I never
think of killing his baby!”
George hit the ground with his stick, making a dull sound. “I know I am old. I don’t want to care too
much at my age. But this time, Jacqueline has gone too far!”
“Dad…What do you want?” Jacqueline asked, looking uneasy.
He nced at her, “From this minute on, you will move to another room alone. You can’te here
without my permission in six months. You are grounded. Stay in your room and reflect on what you’ve
done!”
No one could go against George. Jacqueline was so angry. She thought she would be hit by him, but
now she was grounded!
Ynda felt a bit relieved. At least, her own mother wouldn’t get hurt. It was just six months. It wasn’t a
long time.
George didn’t want to stay with them in the living room anymore. He stood up and went to his bedroom.
Ynda helped Jacqueline up who wiped her tears away and said in a low tone to Cornel, “Cornel…I
know you don''t trust me. But I have to exin that I never did anything to Logan! I never did what dad
said just now. I had no idea why Logan couldn’t get the money; and he never contacted us, I…”
But Cornel seemed to be in chaos. He refused to see her, turning his back to her, “Will you stop
denying and just be quiet? I don’t want to talk about it anymore. Go and get your things and move as
dad said.”
Jacqueline was angry. A sh of hatred crossed her eyes. She clenched her fists. “Alright…” said she
in the end.
Ynda patted her back to soothe her, “Mom, I will go with you.” Then they went upstairs together.
But just stepping into her bedroom, Jacqueline pushed Ynda away. Ynda didn''t expect this and hit
the door, which was so painful.
Jacqueline started to scold her, “Useless! Don’t pretend to help me now! Why didn’t you help me just
now?!”
Ynda knew it was her fault, so she didn’t argue.
Jacqueline fumed, “Six months! I have to stay in the tiny room for six months! Who knows what will
happen in the six months? Elena is safe and so is the bastard in her belly!”
Ynda couldn’t bear and yelled, “It’s all your fault!”
“My fault?!”
“Yes! It’s all your fault! You are not clever enough to set her up! What you’ve done is too damn stupid!
Anyway, you are just too stupid to make it!”
“You…” Jacqueline was irritated, “How dare you defy your mother! Stop retorting me, you stupid
useless bastard!”
“Mom!” Ynda tried to exin, “Can’t you see it? Grandpa takes Logan’s side. No matter what we do,
Grandpa won’t listen to us!”
“Stop it! Don’t look down on us!” Jacqueline stared at her.
Ynda didn’t say anything anymore.
Jacqueline gathered up her things and was ready to move to another room, “Easy. I will be there for
only one month. Then you find a way to help me. Christmas ising. It’s the most important festival
for family gatherings. George will listen to you if you suggest I should get out.”
Ynda nodded but she saw a sh of hatred on Jacqueline''s face. She hoped it was her illusion.

George couldn’t help making a call to Logan. He sat on his bed, looking so lonely.
“Logan, I’ve punishedJacqueline. From now on, no one can hurt you in this house!”
Logan looked outside the window, “Grandpa, you don’t have to do this.”
“I am so sorry…” George took a deep breath, “I asked you to tolerate Cornel and Jacqueline for the
sake of family. But I forgot that sometimes you shouldn’t bear them. It was my fault and you were
forced to leave.”
“I left not because I was forced. It was my choice. I won’t take over the family business as you wish
either.”
“Anyway, I feel so sorry to you. I owe you a lot.”
“Grandpa. I don’t want to talk about the past anymore.” Logan said, looking emotionless.
“Huh…” George sighed, looking less energetic, “Logan, I don’t want you to hate your father. We are
family. I hope you can move on from this moment…Christmas ising…I hope we could be reunited
happily.”
He was an old man now; what he wanted was to take in some pleasure in the family and enjoyed his
happy life with them.Ccontent ? exclusive by N?/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Logan didn’t answer, shaking his head with a smile.
George knew that it wasn’t easy for him to let go of the past. He signed again, feeling sentimental.
“Alright. I won’t force you to ept it at once. Take good care of Elena.”
“I will.”
After a while, George broke the silence between them. “Your legs…I hope you can ept the situation
and move on as well. We all know the result. But it’s okay. I am d that you are fine.”
Logan answered in a cold tone, “Grandpa, you asked me to move on from the past. But what will you
do if I tell you that it was Jacqueline who made me disabled?”
George was too dumbfounded to hold his stick. He nearly cried out in shock, “She did it…How could
she…”
Logan smiled, “I am just kidding. I hope you don’t mind.” He hung up the phone immediately.
George was frozen. He couldn’t forget what Logan said. If Logan was telling the truth, how much had
Jacqueline done behind him?
Logan left the ward. And Elena was back after doing an antenatal examination. They nearly ran into
each other at the door of the ward.
He rubbed his head, “Why are you in a hurry? It seems that you miss me so badly.”
Elena said, “No, I don’t.” Then she walked into the ward with the report. She looked so happy.
Logan stopped Jeff who was walking after Elena. And he told Jeff, “Please contact Albert and let him
arrange the surgery.”
Since the show was started; he would like to finish it.
