Everyone was stunned.
Adeline stood up in a hurry. "Dad? Dad, what's wrong?"
"What... What's going on?" Timothy was frightened. After regaining her mind, she suddenly jumped on Charles and cried, "Honey, what's wrong? Wake up!"
She finally managed to live a good life. If the old man died now, wouldn't she have to live a hard life again?
That must not happen, the old man can't die!
"What are you fools doing here? Hurry up and call an ambulance!" Timothy shouted madly at the crowd, "It’s you who treat the meal today, if something happens to my husband, I will never let you off!"
Adeline couldn't care about her dirty words at this time. She hurriedly said to Jessica, "Jessica, call 120! What if something happens to your grandfather?"
Grandpa Smith who had always been calm was a little flustered at this time.
"It will be okay. He just fainted, you don't have to be too nervous," Jessica looked around and said gently.
Edward and Grandpa Smith looked at each other and seemed to have figured out something. "Jessica, are you sure your grandpa's okay?"
"It’s just some sleeping pills," Jessica said.
Adeline was stunned. "Why did you do that to your grandfather?"
"It’s nothing. Grandpa hasn't had a good rest recently and he won't take medicine, so I help him," Jessica said softly.
Timothy stopped crying, stood up and rushed to Jessica. "You bitch, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to kill my husband and harm me?"
She stretched out her hand and wanted to slap Jessica on the face.
Jessica dodged and clapped her hands twice. Four strong men pushed the door in and grabbed Timothy without expression.
"Let go of me! You let go of me!" Timothy desperately struggled. "Bah, little bitch, when my husband wakes up, he will never let you off!"
Jessica took off a chair cover, rolled it and shoved it into her mouth casually.
"As you can see, grandpa is fascinated by this woman. Who knows she might hold back the Lewis and the Smith family. If we let her continue staying, she will only bring disaster."
Jessica used to disguise her feelings in front of them because she was afraid that they didn't like her true self. But after this, she knew that in the face of benefits, it was just trivial matter, whether they like her or not.
Edward and Grandpa Smith looked at each other, and they whispered a few words.
"A waiter drugged the wine, and we all fainted. When we woke up, we found that Miss Lewis was missing. Maybe she was taken away by some enemy," Grandpa Smith coughed and said slowly.
Jessica smiled. "You can enjoy your time celebrating. I'll find the robber."
With that, she turned and walked out. Several men followed her while taking Timothy.
"Jessica, what robber? Why didn't I see it? Jessica, you...... "Adeline didn't know what these people were talking about. She wanted to chase after Jessica.
Edward took her to sit down. "If you don't want to see your stepmother again in the future, don't ask again."
Adeline glanced at her unconscious old father, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
God knows how much that godforsaken bitch humiliated her back then. She wished she never came back!
