Chapter 63
After some time, the disguised crew members finally stepped in to break them apart.
The elderly folks were still fuming.
“Since you’re so kind, why bother asking him to return the money? Just let him keep it.” Jackson scoffed.
The comment hit like a slap. One of them snapped back and said, “What’s with your attitude?”
They didn’t feel they were in the wrong. Suring the scuffle, a few of them had gotten scratched, which only fueled their irritation.
Janie also nodded and replied, “You know, you should ask yourselves why he targeted you and not someone else.”
Hearing her words, they were speechless.

“What kind of nonsense is that? He stole from us!”
They had nothing more to say..
[Aren’t you guys the justice itself
you can beat him.]
How can you beat someone up like that? Just because he stole your money doesn’t mean
[Beat that creepy guy to death! I just love watching this kind of things.]
[Exactly! Think about it. If your money got stolen, it’s definitely your own problem!]
The man on the ground couldn’t even muster the strength to crawl.
He was a repeat offender, notorious for preying on women in crowded places.
However, he was actually innocent for today. After all, he didn’t even get a chance to make his move before being sent flying with a kick.
Though the old folks had put on quite a show, their blows were more bark than bite. However, Janie’s kick did the real damage.
As the man groaned in pain, he was cursing Janie inwardly. He didn’t expect her kick to be so painful when she looked so weak.
At that moment, Jackson blocked his view of Janie and him a kick too.

“Serves you right. You deserved to be beaten for stealing my money.”
Soon, the crowd handed the man over to the police.
When it came to their own interests, forgiveness wasn’t exactly on the table.
[This dude got destroyed both physically and emotionally. What a show.]
[Shoutout to Janie and Jackson!]
Janie and Jackson’s potato sales didn’t have any negative impact. Business was booming, and they were nearly sold out.
Just then, David trudged over with a defeated look since his business was poor.
Looking at him, Jackson didn’t know what to say.

“What’s wrong?”
After all, David looked like he was about to faint any moment.
David flattered them and said, “Sold out already? You two are amazing! How about I restock you with some of mine?”
Jackson saw through him and said bluntly, “You can’t sell it, can you?”
David admitted it without any hesitation.
Jackson sighed in defeat.
“I’ll share the profit with you guys.” David looked at them expectantly.
“Fine. Bring it over,” Jackson said impatiently.
After all, he wouldn’t refuse free money.
Hearing his words, David happily rushed off to bring his stash from a nearby truck he had parked earlier.
Jackson didn’t stay idle either as he prepping snacks and drinks for Janie.
[David is such a sly dog. Jackson is spoiling Janie so much. I hope he can be my brother in the next life.]
[I called dibs! How about this? You can be my daughter.]
In the meantime, Janie continued to relax.
As she glanced around, she noticed Ryan, Zion, and Xena.
Judging from their appearance, she could tell that business wasn’t for them.
Janie wasn’t interested and narrowed her eyes.
great
On the other hand, Ryan and the others looked at them with wide eyes. Subconsciously, they wanted to call out for her. However, they quickly held back.
Then, they got out of the car and walked toward Janie.
At the same time, Jackson happened to come back. When he noticed the trio, he frowned and walked up to Janie. “Have some snacks, Janie,” he said softly.
Janie opened her eyes and nodded with a smile.
Looking at their interactions, Ryan found it quite an eyesore.
He felt that he could also treat Janie well since she was his biological sister. Thus, there was no need for others to involve.
Soon, David’s potatoes were almost sold out.
In that split second, he felt a sense of accomplishment.
However, his smile soon vanished when he saw Ryan and the others, especially Emily.
had sold out all the potatoes.” Seeing no one was around, Xena called out to Janie. “Janie, you are amazing. You guys
Then, she said dejectedly, “Why can’t I do anything right? I haven’t sold anything.”
Janie slurped her juice and ignored her.

[It’s them again. You know, although these people are good–looking, I just don’t like watching them. I used to like them a lot.]
[Me too. I don’t quite like them.]
[They don’t need us to like them.]
“What do you mean you can’t do anything?” Zion instinctively said. “You can play the piano and paint while she can’t. Surely, she used to work part–time at a market…
As he spoke, he suddenly froze and stopped talking.
For the first time, he realized the stark contrast between Xena’s privileged upbringing and the struggles Janie had endured.
However, he soon shook off this thought.
After all, Xena was his sister.
In the meantime, Ryan also had a complicated expression.
“Why are you still here if you know you can’t do anything? Just go home!” Jackson said harshly.
Hearing his words, Xena froze.
“Leave!” Jackson said coldly.
In that split second, Xena and the others were infuriated.
However, they didn’t dare to say anything.
“Jackson, you…”
