Chapter 560

Donald grew serious. He said, “Jennifer is your sister–in–law. You shouldn’t treat her like that. It’s not right.”

Cheryl snapped, “What did I do wrong? Jennifer has only been married to you for a few days, but she accused bad of cheating and made Mem paranoid and suspicious. Is she satisfied now? Is she happy seeing our perfectly good family fall apart?”

Donald said, “Jennifer just speaks her

Cheryl talked back, “She means no and sharp–tongued-”

Before Cheryl could finish her words, Donald cut in and said, “Stopi

None of that applies to Jennifer.”

Cheryl retorted, “What? Are you seriously saying she’s not selfish and cold–hearted?”

“Everyone is selfish. Don’t act like you’re above it all.” Donald still sided with Jennifer. “Jennifer had a tough childhood. She is just guarded, and we should try to understand her.”

Cheryl shot back, “Don’t you dare guilt–trip me, Donald. Why should I understand her? In my book, Jennifer isn’t even fit to be my sister–in–law. Selfishness doesn’t give her the right to hurt others.”

Donald snapped, “That’s enough. You’re completely off track now. Who exactly has Jennifer hurt?”

Cheryl said, “I’m not dwelling on it. I just want you to keep your guard up around Jennifer-”

Cheryl suddenly stopped.

At the very least, when Cheryl was giving birth, Jennifer knew exactly what she was going through, yet Jennifer still left her. Even when Cheryl fainted from heatstroke, Jennifer didn’t save her.

Donald, stilt trying to play peacemaker, told her, “Don’t misunderstand Jennifer. hearted at heart.”

She’s really not that kind of person. She is just straightforward and kind-

Cheryl rolled her eyes and said, “Alright. Your wife is the kindest person. She is a perfect angel. Happy now?”

Donald replied, “Alright. Take care of yourself, and let me know if you need anything.”

Donald watched as the taxi drove away. Only then did he finally step back inside the house.

Teresa hadn’t slept well these past few days. Last night, she had a nightmare.

In her dream, everyone pointed at Michael, stared at him with strange, judgmental looks, and called him an illegitimate child. She also dreamed that Jennifer walked past her, fixed her with a condescending gaze, and said, “See? Ltold you so.”

Teresa woke with a start and realized it was a

nightmare.
