Trap me in your love novel Chapter 16

Thwack!

"How did I give birth to a person like you, doing such thing behind our back! If I had known that you were such a person, I would have strangled you. Why should I keep you by my side and cause trouble for myself?"

When a burning pain coming from her cheek, Jessie looked at Darren blankly, feeling both aggrieved and funny.

She had thought that she would lead a better life after she married into the Lan family. After all, she was the daughter-in-law of the Lan family. Even if he hated her, he should at least show respect to the Lan family.

However, on the first day after their wedding, what's waiting for her wasn't a smile but a slap in the face!

"Did I do something wrong again?" Jessie roared, "You always slapped me for everything since I was little. I wanted to ask you why you gave birth to me. Since you hated me so much, why did you raise me up! Although I'm your biological daughter, even a servant wouldn't live a horrible life like me. You said I did something behind your back. I want to say that it's impossible to find a father as cruel as you in the world!"

"You..."

Darren was furious. He raised his hand and wanted to slap her again. Jessie glared at him with hatred. "Just do it! It's a matter of course for father to beat his own daughter. If you have the guts, beat me to death today!"

"Well, do you think I dare not beat you? If I don't beat you to death today, I'm not Darren Lin."

When Darren was about to pick up the whip, Ivy held him back. She persuaded, "Darren, don't be angry. Beating her will not solve any problem. The most important thing is to solve the problem at hand."

Darren turned his head to look at Ivy and his hand which was holding the whip slowly loosened.

Seeing what happened between Ivy and Darren, Jessie felt suspicious and wondered what had happened.

Even if she irritated him before, he never took out the whip in advance. But today, obviously, Darren was well prepared.

Besides, she can't believe that Ivy would speak for her today?!

Didn't she wish Darren hated her deeply? And it would be better if she and her mother could be expelled from the Lin family. How could she persuade Darren today?

It must be something wrong with the Lin Group.

However, what did that have to do with her?!

Suddenly, Darren threw a pile of documents on Jessie. He said coldly, "You feel aggrieved, don't you? Just take a look at these! My daughter colluded with others to encroach on my family property. Jessie, I didn't expect you to be so capable!"

Giving a glance at Darren, Jessie picked up the files on the ground and leafed through them one by one.

The first one was the equity list of the Lin Group.

There was nothing wrong from the top. When she saw the last two lines, she was shocked.

Blake owned 20%, and Jessie owned 40%! That was to say, the largest shareholder of the Lin Group was herself! If she allied with Blake, they had the final say on the whole Lin Group!

However, Darren, who used to be the largest shareholder and the president of the Lin Group, as well as Ivy, were not included in the list.

The second file was the details of Darren's assets.

Darren's original assets were more than 38 million dollars, and the most valuable immovable property was the villa he was living in now. But when Jessie saw the name on the copy of the latest certificate of the property ownership, she trembled and didn't know what to do.

"That's impossible! How could that happen? That's impossible..."

"Impossible? Jessie, don't you dare to commit it? No matter how badly your father treated you, he had raised you for at least twenty years. If it weren't your father, your crazy mother and your brother would have starved to death on the street. How dare you conspire against your father's property? I can understand your hatred to us. But have you ever thought about your crazy mother? I really can't imagine that you can be so cruel to us!"

"I didn't!" Jessie retorted loudly.
