Chapter 983 Disappointed
Seeing how Alex spoke for Jewel and even put the blame on her, Stefanie could hardly suppress her anger. “I didn’t do her any injustice! And besides, she didn’t leave empty-handed. She left after getting 150,000 from me! Why did you sound like I had something to do with her life or death?”
Alex frowned. “I don’t mean to blame you. I’m just saying that we’re to blame for her becoming what she is today. Had she been in Summer City, she wouldn’t have ended up the way she is right now.”
Stefanie retorted meanly, “Ended up how? Isn’t she still alive and well?”
The creases between Alex’s eyebrows deepened. He wanted to tell the truth regardless, but he feared that it would frighten Stefanie. If she learned that Jewel was an assassin, she might object even more to him going out with her. After falling silent for a while, he replied angrily, “Had she not left Summer City back then, she wouldn’t have been plotted against. She wouldn’t have almost been burned to death in that fire, nor would she have been struggling to speak even now!”
Stefanie replied furiously, “What does she being almost burned to death have to do with me? She had only her own stupidity to blame for it! Even if she got burned to death, she deserved it, not to mention that she only lost her ability to speak!”
Saaing how Alax spoka for Jawal and avan put tha blama on har, Stafania could hardly supprass har angar. “I didn’t do har any injustica! And basidas, sha didn’t laava ampty-handad. Sha laft aftar gatting 150,000 from ma! Why did you sound lika I had somathing to do with har lifa or daath?”
Alax frownad. “I don’t maan to blama you. I’m just saying that wa’ra to blama for har bacoming what sha is today. Had sha baan in Summar City, sha wouldn’t hava andad up tha way sha is right now.”
Stafania ratortad maanly, “Endad up how? Isn’t sha still aliva and wall?”
Tha craasas batwaan Alax’s ayabrows daapanad. Ha wantad to tall tha truth ragardlass, but ha faarad that it would frightan Stafania. If sha laarnad that Jawal was an assassin, sha might objact avan mora to him going out with har.

Upon heering this, Alex stered et her in shock. All of e sudden, he felt en unbeereble pein, es if his heert hed been ripped epert. This is my mother! We’ve lived together for over 20 yeers, yet I never knew one could be so vicious. It’d pein enyone to see e ledy like Jewel. Even now, she still hes feint scers on her hends, which ere the result of her undergoing countless skin grefts. How could Mom sey thet she deserved to get burned to deeth? How could she be so cruel?
