Chapter 525 Worsened

After Jennifer got home, she asked some people to look into June. When she received a stack of documents regarding June’s private information, she looked through them intently. A smirk flashed on her face as she scoffed, “June’s appearance gives off the impression of someone loyal and a womanizer at the same time. During his and Cassie’s years-long romantic relationship, he had also been fooling around with other women. Indeed, he’s made full use of his abilities to woo women. Yet, it does seem like he’s in love with Cassie, judging by how he looks at her in these photos. Those two wicked people are indeed a match made in heaven. Neither of them is sincere when it comes to relationships. No wonder they remained together for so many years.”

After flipping through the rest of the information, she kept those documents inside her bookcase and locked them up.

She went and stood by the window, quietly gazing at the scenery outside. One could not tell what she felt at that moment.

Right then, someone knocked on her door anxiously. A maid soon called out, “Ms. Larson, something’s wrong! Mrs. Larson is having another episode! She’s smashing everything in sight. Please hurry downstairs.”

That sent a shock wave through Jennifer’s mind. She made her way downstairs with haste, where Laura behaved like a lunatic and bashed things into pieces. Her expression instantly changed as she went up to Laura and hugged the latter. “Mom, I’m Jennifer. I’m your daughter. Please calm down before you hurt yourself.”

Laura vented her emotions for a while before she eventually calmed down. She turned around to look at Jennifer with a horrified expression. “Jennifer, someone was trying to kill me! That person was aiming a gun at me. That’s why I rushed downstairs to scare him away with these. After that, you came down. Yes, you came down right after that. Jennifer, you have to protect me. These people are scary.”

Jennifer’s eyes reddened as she looked at the crazed Laura in shock. She felt like her heart was being torn apart by a pair of invisible hands.

It broke her heart to see her well-mannered and elegant mother become this hysterical woman. At the same time, she felt remorseful, as if an ocean of guilty thoughts were suffocating her mind.

How I wish I could undo everything. If there were a way to reverse time, I would do it right away. I shouldn’t have come back from overseas during my parents’ and I’s last visit there. I would’ve never looked for Carter again, and perhaps my mom would still be sane. She wouldn’t become how she is now if I’d done all that. Oscar and Amelia, you guys are so heartless. If my mom’s condition can’t get healed, I’ll remember all the hardships she’s going through now and avenge her. An eye for an eye, after all. Wait and see, you too. I’ll undoubtedly seek my revenge.

After Jennifer helped Laura settle down, she rang her family doctor and asked him to come over to have a look at the latter. While waiting for the doctor’s arrival, she exploded in rage. “Esme, what happened? Didn’t I ask you to take care of my mom? Is this how you do your job?”

Esme Xanthos, a plump maid in her fifties, rushed over and answered cautiously, “Ms. Larson, I didn’t mean to let this happen. I was right next to Mrs. Larson when she was fast asleep earlier. Suddenly, she woke up and said someone wanted to kill her. Before I could react sensibly, Mrs. Larson had already rushed down the stairs. What happened next was what you just saw, Ms. Larson.”

Jennifer rubbed her forehead and said in frustration, “Okay. You can leave now.”

“Yes, Ms. Larson.”

After that, Jennifer glanced at all the maids present and instructed, “No one is allowed to tell my dad about my mom’s episode earlier. If he finds out about this, all of you might as well pack up and leave the Larson residence.”

“Understood, Ms. Larson.”

Some time passed before the family doctor, Johnny Dixon, arrived alongside two nurses. Jennifer rushed to welcome them and politely said, “Mr. Dixon, my mom has fallen sick again. Please take a look at her. She’s upstairs.”
