Chapter 298
“Are you joking with me?” Elaina asked Natalie in surprise.
“I’m not joking with you. I’m serious.”
Natalie smiled and pulled Jazmin’s arm. “Jazmin is your cousin, after all. We are
families. You should help her, right?”
Jazmin also looked at Elaina and smiled, “Ella, I will depend on you.”
Elaina was speechless and thought, your attitude was different from before.
But Elaina couldn’t retort because Xzavier was also there. She didn’t know how to refuse.
“It’s already very difficult for Ella to live alone in New York. Don’t make trouble for her,”
Xzavier scolded Jazmin.
He knew his daughter very well. He didn’t believe that Jazmin really wanted to go to New
York to find a job. He knew that she had some bad ideas.
“Dad!”
Jazmin was a little angry. “You always treated Ella better than me since she was a child.
You are so good to her. What’s wrong with asking her to help me find a job? Do you want
to see me like this for the rest of my life?”
Jazmin also felt wronged. Since she was a child, other than Natalie, who always stood
by her side, everyone in the family liked Elaina.
Even Theodore and Andrew, who were adopted by Dexter, also protected Elaina from
childhood and didn’t care about Jazmin.
Jazmin was Xzavier’s daughter, but she thought everyone treated Elaina better than her!
The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. At last, Jazmin could not help
but cry. It made the other a little awkward.
Xzavier wanted to scold Jazmin, but seeing her cry now, he felt a little distressed.
Jazmin, who was crying, was overjoyed when she heard this. “So, you agree?”
“Xzavier, don’t say that. You are always kind to me. Now that I have the chance to repay
you, I am glad.” Although Elaina disliked Natalie and Jazmin, she was grateful to Xzavier.
During this time, Jalen did not say a word. He just ate the food silently. No one knew
what he was thinking.
At night, Elaina was lying on the bed. It was the room she was familiar with, but she
could not fall asleep.
She flipped over the bed and wanted to go out for a walk.
As soon as she stepped out of the room, she saw a tall figure standing in the yard. She
asked with uncertainty, “Jalen?”
Jalen turned back and looked at her. “Can’t fall asleep?”
“Yes.” Elaina walked over and stood next to him. “Why haven’t you slept yet?”
“I was thinking about something,” Jalen replied, his gaze falling on Elaina’s face.
