NovelEnglishChapter 1599
Avery was slightly taken aback.
After all, Deborah was exposed and managed to escape.
Why would Jacqueline not seize the chance to run away but call him instead? Olivia's guess was right! Jacqueline wasn't only evil; her ambition burned like a supernova.
"Jacqueline, what's wrong?" Avery acted.
“You've been out of touch.I was so worried.Are you okay?"
“I'm okay.I found out that Dad's not dead yet.I've been trying to save him."
"How is he doing? Is he safe now?"
Anxiety seeped into her voice.
Had Avery not known the truth, he wouldn't have told her this.It was a bait to lure her out of the den.
Jacqueline was one scary woman.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtUnlike her young age, she possessed an ambition and daringness that far exceeded that of ordinary people.
Killing her would be too light of a punishment for her.
Avery replied as Olivia had told him to beforehand.
Jacqueline requested to meet David right away.
"Okay, but it's still not safe yet.Don't alarm others when you come.I'm afraid it'll lead to unexpected problems."
"Okay, Avery."
After the call, Avery looked at others in the room.
"Olivia, your guess was right.She didn't run away and is planning to stay."
“She's been plotting this for many years.We can see how calculating she is from how she attempted to murder me.She'll never expose herself.If I hadn't sensed something wrong about Grandma's picture, we would've still been in the dark and wrapped around her finger."
“How despicable! Killing her would be too generous of us."
Sean slammed the table and stood up.
"I couldn't walk and wasted those years because of her! And Quinn too! Killing Jacqueline will never be enough to appease me!"
"Calm down, Sean.Quinn's already passed on.There's nothing we can do about it.But there's still a chance for us to turn the table before it's too late," said Olivia patiently.
She continued, "I can treat you and Dad.Louis is helping Avery too.Once we can find him a suitable liver donor, he'll be able to get back on his feet.The most important thing to do now is to hold our ground and find Mom."
Despite being the youngest here, she had experienced the most here, making her wiser and more decisive than others.
“Avery, Jacqueline is doing all this to gain our family business.Before this, she once brought up about her wish to take over Dad's job.Now, considering how she's unwilling to leave even after Deborah is exposed, she's definitely thinking of reaping big money before leaving.
"It'll be easy to kill her, but this won't make up for what she has done to you guys."
“So, you mean..." She smirked.
"Let's make her return whatever she has taken.We'll strip her of her titles and consign her back to her origin! "4 Jacqueline rushed to the mansion, where David was staying for recuperation.
She burst into tears as soon as she entered the place.
“Avery, I'm so glad that you're alright! I was so worried when I couldn't contact you."
Avery stared into her red-rimmed eyes.
Her words sounded so genuine that she didn't seem to be faking it.
He even wondered if she had gone to an acting academy for training.

Her cheeks were wet.
Only then did he cback to his senses.
"Nothing.I'm just glad that you're alright."
He patted her shoulder as usual.
“Let's go see Dad.He's seriously injured."
Jacqueline hummed in response.
When she reached the room, she realized that Troy and Sean were there too! She was surprised that she was the last to know the news.
She felt that something was odd.
Did they know something? Sean, still in his wheelchair, gave her a sorrowful look.
"Jacqueline, you're here."
“Troy, Sean."
She rushed to the side of David's bed, tears trickling down her cheeks again.
"Dad!"
