A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 138

"No, Aunt. I don't mean to set myself against you." Jean shook her head. "I just want to pursue my happiness. Everything has finally returned to what it was three years ago. I believe that Terence will have his own judgment.

I know what I'm saying may make you unhappy. But Aunt, I am already determined to be with him. I won't give up on him." Although her tone was soft, her words were clear and firm.

Tina gave Jean a disdainful look. In her mind, Jean didn't change much from her childhood. At that moment, Tina remembered how Jean liked to exchange tears and hypocrisy for anything she wanted.

An irritated scowl pained Tina's face. "So even if I don't agree with your relationship with Terence, you won't back down?"

"No, I won't." Jean gave her a determined nod. "Aunt, we are adults. We have our ideas about love. I don't expect your permission, but I hope you can stop being so hostile to me. I will let you see that I'm good enough for Terence."

A sneer escaped Tina's lips as she stood up. "Since you insist, don't blame me for what I'm going to do."

Tina looked at Jean and continued, "This house is a wedding gift I bought for Terence and Julia. Now that they are divorced, I'm going to sell it. I don't want to hold on to the unpleasant memories here. Miss Gu, please move out as soon as possible. We don't want anything unhappy to happen."

Jean knew that Tina would inevitably do this. As such, after Tina's remark, Jean did not show any surprise. She smiled and said, "Don't worry. I will pack up tonight and move out as soon as possible."

"That's good." Tina nodded with satisfaction. "You better not be here when I come back next time!"

After Tina left the house, Jean went upstairs to pack up her things. Mandy followed Jean anxiously and asked, "Are you truly moving out, Jean?"

"Of course." Jean nodded. Since Tina had asked her to leave, how could she stay? But it wouldn't be easy to make her go away. "Tina thought that she could cut off my contact with Terence by driving me away. However, by doing so, she doesn't realize that she is helping me instead."

"Why are you still so calm?" Mandy showed an anxious look. "Our asses are on the line now. Jean, you'd better think of a way to make this right. It's already late at night. Where can we go?"

"What's the rush?" Jean gave an annoyed glance. "Didn't I help you rent an apartment before? Let's move our things there first."

"How are you not pressured?" With a puzzled look on her face, Mandy looked at Jean. She put a tremendous effort just to move into this house. However, Tina just asked them to leave like that. Despite all that, Jean still looked indifferent. "How about this? I'll call Terence now. He will surely ask you to stay. Then, we don't have to leave, right?"

"Of course I have to call him, but I'll do that after I moved out," said Jean with a mischievous grin. No matter what Mandy said, Jean packed her things and didn't say anything else.

After packing up, Jean called a taxi. They headed to Mandy's apartment and transferred their belongings there.

"Jean, have you made up your mind? If you finish moving out, you can no longer regret your decision," Mandy frowned and asked desperately. "What the hell do you want to do?"

"Don't worry. I have a plan." Jean revealed a naughty smile. If she could play her scheme well today, her relationship with Terence would improve.
