Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan)

Chapter 342

When I asked her that question, Hannah couldn't contain her anger and spat out, "How should I know?

A complete idiot, that's what!"

"Idiot? Far from it. He's craftier than a fox! Ever heard of a rough upstart? Jealousy, envy, resentment...

It's like he's got a severe case of it. He has no clue how deep my family's pockets really are."

Hannah’s eyes widened in surprise. "He doesn't know? What do you mean?"

I smiled. "All thanks to my parents."

"Tell me!" Hannah scooched closer, crossing her legs as she settled beside me.

"People have been saying I was a disgrace, that I ran off to Goldenvale Town for some guy, spending a

fortune for someone else. I didn't even call my parents to update them on my situation, which is

basically like setting a fox to keep the geese. They said I was brainless, too sick to even give my

parents a ring, and that I was cold and indifferent—a daughter gone awry, deserving of every bit of bad

karma."

"That's a bit harsh. Not everyone's the same. People like us who live away from home don't burden our

families with our troubles!" Hannah countered the harsh words with understanding. "If you told them NôvelDrama.Org © content.

what you were going through, they'd be worried sick!"

I gave a wry smile. "Truth is, I was so sick I was practically under the Dawsons’ spell, never lucid

enough to even consider calling. I was just drifting, waiting for death."

"That's terrifying!" Hannah muttered, "Damn that Jaylan!"

"And to top it off, some had the nerve to blame my parents, saying they should've inquired more when

they lost contact with me. When they came to Goldenvale Town to check on me, they were easily

sidetracked with a few words. What kind of parents do that?"

"Were there actually people saying that?"

"Everyone only knew half the story. My folks are no ordinary old-timers. They've got a way of thinking, a

sharpness in their logic." I said proudly and continued, "They sensed something was off during their

visit but didn't want to spook anyone, so they headed back to Silverdale City."

"They didn't just sit around after that, did they?" Hannah probed.

"Of course not. They had friends in Goldenvale Town look into Medsafe Liyah Inc. and figured out the

whole scenario. That's when Mr. Richardson entered the picture, and they got wind of my situation.

They were worried sick but never one to make a scene. Instead, they meticulously planned every step

of my recovery."

Hannah gave me a thumbs up. "Impressive!"

I smiled contentedly and said, "Even I didn't know until my last trip back to Silverdale City that my dad

had bought a whole street and... well, the financial backing behind it."

"You mean, you didn't even know your family was loaded?" Hannah was skeptical.

"It's a long story," I sighed.

Hannah nudged me, "Go on, what happened next?" Reаd at NovelDrama.Org

I looked at the engrossed Hannah and added, "As for his philandering ways, well, that's just the

Dawson family genes at work!"

"Wow, it’s so complicated!" Hannah sighed, "So was that the whole thing? No wonder you can't stand

the Dawson family!"
