The hidden billionaire heiress (Lyra Melvin)

Chapter 966 Except being beaten, nothing else is left

Now she can't help herself, and must do what her adoptive father said.

Everyone of his subordinates knew that Jaqueline was back, and knew that Jaqueline was attracted to the "prey", so they looked at her differently.

They seemed to be used to the life without feelings, only knowing to be loyal to Sheldon Alford.

And a traitor like Jaqueline was even more disdainful by the crowd.

Jaqueline kept her distance from them and ignored them.

She didn't want to haggle with this group of people, and found it meaningless.

They were in the tropics. The temperature was high, and Jaqueline already had injuries on her body.

In order to prevent the wound from becoming inflamed, she had to change her dressing frequently. Seeing her coming to fetch water and wash towels, the women next to her winked at each other. The woman, who was smoking and chatting, had her eyes fell on Jaqueline.

Some of them smiled sarcastically.

"Going out for a while and then coming back, she feels that she's great. Isn't it because she met a rich man? If I were ten years younger and I was as coquettish as her, there would be a lot of men for me." The person next to her couldn't help but sneered, "Bah", and said sternly, "Come on, what is the quality of your man, and what is the quality of the man she hooked up with? Who do you think you're?"

"You..."

At this time, the silent woman who was surrounded in the middle scolded, "What are you doing?"

As she said that, she threw the cigarette butt on the ground and crushed it fiercely, "Go, since she's all back, why don't you go meet her?"

As she spoke, she walked straight towards Jaqueline who was fetching water.

The people behind hurriedly followed, also wanting to teach Jaqueline a lesson.

On the surface, Jaqueline was Sheldon's adopted daughter.

But all the villages within a radius of ten miles were their own, and all of them knew why.

To put it bluntly, Jaqueline was just Sheldon's exclusive woman.

But Sheldon seemed to like her very much. Once she came back, he didn't even have the chance to spoil the others.

The leading woman came quietly behind her, looking at Jaqueline with jealous eyes.

She looked around, then suddenly picked up the swill bucket next to her and poured it on Jaqueline's head.

The stench radiated out, and several women were also nauseated. They couldn't help covering their mouths and noses, but they didn't forget to laugh mockingly. Jaqueline, who was covered all over, was caught off guard, but she didn't make any movement. She just turned around slowly and looked at the woman in front of her sharply. It was as if it wasn't some swill poured on her, and she couldn't smell the stench.

"Jaqueline, I didn't expect you to come back so soon. You should have a good life with Anthony, right? I heard you fell in love with him."

Saying that, the woman suddenly leaned closer to her ear, "You really think highly of yourself. If that man Anthony knows you are such a filthy bitch, guess what he will do?" Every word she said directly hurt Jaqueline's heart.

The life experience she was least willing to mention was always told so easily by others, as if it was just a joke that was usually chatted.

Jaqueline stared at her fiercely.

On the contrary, the woman felt good and couldn't help but be proud.

But who would have thought that Jaqueline's displeasure was only for a moment, and soon, she smiled lightly and threw away the rotten leaves on her head.

It was not as clear as usual in front of Anthony, but a little more gloomy.

"Mr. Alford will let you go after you treat me like this?"

The woman dismissed it, "Who are you? Mr. Alford will stand up for you?"

Jaqueline looked at her with neither humbleness nor condescension, "I'm still valuable to Mr. Alford. How about you? Besides knowing how to do it in bed, what else can you do? Sell yourself?" These words awakened the woman.

The woman was so deflated that she didn't want to talk to Jaqueline, so she turned around and was about to leave.

Jaqueline saw the right moment, rushed forward and grabbed her hair, refusing to let go.

"Pouring swill? You're really good. Let me see who can win today?"

As Jaqueline said, she shook off other people's obstruction, pulled the woman's hair and slapped her several times, and the woman's face suddenly swelled up.

Someone noticed the farce here.

Sheldon came out, stared at the disfigured women, and said coldly, "Do you know what you are doing?"

Hearing the sound, Jaqueline stopped and fell to the ground.

She suddenly became weak, and pointed at the woman pitifully, "She said that I took her position, and she should have been the one to escort the goods this time!"

The woman panicked immediately, and hurriedly pleaded, "Mr. Alford, I didn't mean that. She was talking nonsense! She hit me first!"

Jaqueline said indifferently, "Then tell me, what's the matter with the slop on my body? You just hope that my wound will become inflamed and replace me." The woman was filled with fear.

Especially being stared at by Sheldon, she felt there a chill coming down her back.

In the next second, the man said coldly, "Jaqueline, how did I teach you before, that people who don't like you are still worthy of fighting?"

"I knew."

After speaking, Jaqueline winked at the bodyguard behind Sheldon.

"Throw her into the river and deal with it cleanly."

A group of people were a little dumbfounded.

Jaqueline had always been weak. Except when she was beaten, they had never seen her look so cold and stern.

On the contrary, Sheldon was delighted to see it.

"Jaqueline, you have grown up."

Jaqueline didn't look sideways, "It's your credit."

"Hahahahaha."

The man laughed loudly, without the viciousness of beating her back then. He put his arms around her shoulders, and said distressedly, "Isn't it okay to be so obedient earlier? Come on, does your injury still hurt? I will give you medicine..."

She suppressed the disgust in her heart and followed in obediently.

On the other side, although Jaqueline made a phone call, she didn't intend to come back.

Anthony suppressed his sullenness and told Zack to continue looking for Jaqueline's whereabouts.

But Zack's clues were broken at the foot of the mountain, so he could only go back and report the truth to Anthony.

Anthony still hadn't let go of the Mavis' matter, and something went wrong with Jaqueline again. He was sitting in the office distraught, smoking one cigarette after another.

Mavis was gone.

Something happened to Jaqueline.

Nothing went right around him.

Even though Jaqueline said that she was going out for fun, Anthony felt that it was not as simple as what she said.

During the meeting, a group of veterans on the board began to force him to check Jaqueline.

Anthony was very irritable and left directly.

She had disappeared? How to check on her?

After thinking about it, Anthony planned to go to the mountain to find Jaqueline himself.

As for the news from Mavis, Anthony sent someone to follow up, trying to find some clues.

He moved quickly, and Zack arranged everything according to his instructions. Just as he was about to leave in the afternoon, Jaqueline suddenly came back.
