Chapter 286



Although I had come to terms with my feelings for Conrad, it didn't mean the awkwardness and pain had vanished.

"Felicia, seriously, you suffered such injustice but didn't say anything. That house was for you, and you should've kicked Haley out. You'd rather let the homeless stay there," Jacqueline couldn't stand injustice.

Maybe that was also why Herschel was such a straight shooter, out of love for her and probably a bit of fear of ruffling her feathers.

Conrad and I were over, so there was no point in bringing it up again. I tried to calm her down. "Jacqueline, it's all in the past now."

"I might get past it. But I can't let it go. I'll have the house taken back today," Jacqueline was furious.

I forced a smile. "Even if you drive Haley out of the house, Conrad can buy another place."

Haley was just the intruder, but it was Conrad who gave her the chance. The real issue is Conrad, not Haley.

"That might be his business, but that house belongs to you. No other woman should live there," Jacqueline's words warmed my heart.

That kind of protection felt like what a mother would offer her daughter.

"Jacqueline, I know you're looking out for me, trying to stand up for me, but it's unnecessary. Don't trouble yourself or get angry," I tried to dissuade Jacqueline.
