Dominant Boss: Call Me Hubby, My Dear novel Chapter 36

Alexander raised his hand and wanted to slap Jeanne's face.

Jeanne did not move. A cold glint flashed across her eyes.

That gaze caused Alexander to suddenly stop his hand in mid-air.

In an instant, he felt a chill run down his spine.

He seemed to see a glimpse of Jeanne's mother in her. It made him feel... terrified.

Jeanne asked, "Do you want to completely ruin the little affection left between us?"

Alexander's expression was ugly. He put down his hand fiercely and said, "Jeanne, you only care about yourself regardless of the reputation of our family. Don't think that I have any feelings for you."

"So, you're saying that I'm just a tool for profit. Not only me, but Jasmine and Joshua as well."

"Jeanne!" Alexander was furious.

Jasmine quickly said, "Sister, how can you say that about Dad? A family wouldn't talk about being a tool for profit. A family needs to help each other. Take me for example. If I can contribute to the Lawrences, I'd be very satisfied and proud. At least I'm not a useless person in the family."

"That's why you seduced Eden and exchanged yourself for benefits," Jeanne mocked.

"Eden and I are truly in love. How can you speak so harshly?" Jasmine said angrily. At that moment, her eyes were red.

Alexander looked at Jeanne's aggressive manner and said coldly, "Jeanne, look at the gap between you and Jasmine! Jasmine always sided with the Lawrences, whereas you only sided with yourself. You're so selfish, so what right do you have to question my feelings for you?! When you were 18 years old, you were still young and impulsive. Now that you're 25 years old, you're still like this. How do you think I should treat you?

"For the so-called interests of the family, I should sacrifice myself?" Jeanne laughed sarcastically. "When I was 18 years old, Eden and Jasmine cheated on me. When I was seeking justice for myself, you forced me to admit that my relationship with Eden was broken in order to continue the marriage with the Swans. You even asked me to give them my generous blessings! I went to the Swan family's residence to ask Eden for an explanation. When I came back, I was beaten half to death by you with a whip. I was even chased out of the Lawrence family's manor! I was cheated on, but because I didn't accept it generously, I became a heinous criminal?!"

Alexander was rendered speechless by Jeanne's words.

Jonathan said coldly, "The interests of the family can't be violated. No matter what grievances you've suffered, you must put the family first. You didn't stand on the side of our family, so it was a heinous crime to us!"

Jeanne smiled again. She said, appearing unusually calm, "So, you don't have the slightest bit of guilt for what happened seven years ago. It was all my fault. Seven years later, the same thing happened to me, and it's still

my fault!" "I thought you understood seven years ago!" Jonathan was indifferent.

"Does that mean that as long as it's beneficial to the family, I can do anything?" Jeanne raised her eyebrow.

Jonathan affirmed, "Yes!"

"That means that if Eden and I can get back together, I can also become a Swan and bring benefits to the family..."

"Sister! Are you crazy?" Jasmine interrupted Jeanne and could not help but say, "Eden and I are about to get married soon, and you're saying such a thing now..."

"Shut up!" Jeanne faced Jasmine in an imposing manner.

"When your oldest sister speaks, do you have the right to interrupt?!"

Jasmine's face turned red from Jeanne's words.

Jeanne did not even look at Jasmine. Her contempt for her was so obvious.

At that moment, Jasmine wanted to strangle Jeanne to death.

What right did Jeanne have to act like the eldest daughter of the Lawrences? Who did she think she was?!

Jenifer was such a scheming and shrewd person. At that moment, she almost could not hold herself back.

She forced herself to calm down.
