Chapter 616 Reveals Her Identity
Chapter 616 Reveals Her Identity
Jenny trembled under Archie’s gaze, her whole body trembling with fear. She struggled to get up from the ground. Jenny determined not to let herself be bullied by Jasmine, even though she wasn’t a match for her.
She knew Archie wasn’t a good person, but she absolutely refused to shoulder the blame.
“Archie, please believe me. I never said a bad word about you.
“The corridor has surveillance cameras. You can have someone retrieve the footage and see who is lying…” she pleaded.
Jenny was in pain and struggled to stand up. She looked up at Archie, her expression and eyes showing no hint of guilt. It didn’t look like she was lying. Archie, having been in the business world for a long time, was experienced in reading people. How could he not see who was lying?
But even so, Archie still directed his anger at the innocent Jenny! He held a riding whip and ruthlessly lashed at her, again and again!
“At such a young age, telling lies. You need a good lesson.” “Yeah, if you don’t give her a lesson now, it will be too late!” At that moment, several elders from the Powells family arrived.
Jenny instantly understood why Archie knew it was Jasmine who insulted him but still vented his anger on her…
She bit her lip and endured silently. Jasmine stood by, a smug expression on her face.
“Remember to be more mindful in the future and stop spewing lies!” Archie admonished. Jenny nodded as she gritted her teeth.
“Go back!”
She struggled to get up from the ground and walked unsteadily towards her room.
Soon, Archie set up a grand feast in the dining hall, toasting the elders one by one. The gifts were prepared according to their preferences, pleasing the elders and making them smile from ear to ear.
Archie’s actions were simply to stabilize these sly foxes in the Powells family and prevent them from causing trouble at such a critical juncture. As the night grew darker, Jenny struggled to disinfect her own back. She had a very low presence in the Powells family, or it can even be said that she had no sense of presence at all.
After the death of Clarence, Lance, who used to keep an eye on Jenny had not to report her condition every few days anymore. And Lance had long disappeared, probably collecting a salary somewhere without doing any work. Suddenly, the door was pushed open. Before Jenny could react, a gentle voice sounded…
“Let me help you.” Jenny turned her head and saw an elegant and noble woman walking in. “You are…
“From the southeast corner.” the woman smiled faintly. Southeast corner?
Jenny instantly understood. “The forbidden place? You are the person my father kept locked up in the forbidden place?” She nodded and carefully cleaned Jenny’s wounds with a cotton swab.
Jenny anxiously asked, “Do you remember your family member’s phone number? I can find a way to help you make a call and seek help from your family!” The woman smiled again. “Thank you for your kind offer, but I cannot leave yet. If possible, you should find a way to leave here. This place is not your home.” “What… What are you saying?” Jenny thought she had misheard. “Are you joking with me?”
The woman shook her head, her expression extremely serious, with no trace of joking.
“I’m not lying to you. Clarence is not your biological father. He abducted you.” Jenny was shocked and couldn’t utter a word. She looked at her in disbelief.
Regarding this, Jenny didn’t completely disbelieve it. She had skepticism. After all, Clarence treated her and Jasmine completely differently. Jenny as the person involved, knew it best.
She had even doubted before that she might not be Clarence’s biological daughter. Seeing that Jenny didn’t deny it, the woman continued in a low voice, “Do you know why Clarence never allowed you to step out of the Powells family?”
“Why?”
“Because you bear a striking resemblance to a woman when she was young. He was afraid that if you appeared in public, you would be discovered.” Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“Me?” Jenny pointed at herself. “Was I resembling a woman when she was young? Who do I resemble?”
