Pampered Wife's Counterattack | Book 4

762.Extra Layer Of Protection Gone

"Scram." A hint of impatience flashed past Jungkook's expression.

Huang Zhishu was frightened into trembling. However, she could not back down when it came to her own daughter.

She knew that it was useless to continue begging him any further. Thus, she turned to Elder Jeon Chongshan. "Father, though Nancy is my adopted daughter, I've always treated her as my own. She has always been a good child and is the Long Group's only successor. If news spread that Jungkook has detained her, her reputation would be ruined."

Lisa suspected that Nancy was not Long Jingyuan's granddaughter. Instead, there was a possibility that she herself was part of the Brushweiler family's bloodline.

However, this was only a suspicion. She did not wish for others to think that she was greedy for the Brushweiler family's wealth. Thus, she did not plan on bringing this matter up yet.

In any case, when Jingyuan awoke, the truth would be revealed. There was no need to rush this matter.

Mingyu spoke up as well. "Grandfather, considering that Nancy is the Jeon family's adopted daughter and that us siblings have been accompanying you in the old mansion for the past few years, please help my sister."

The elder's expression was heavy. "Since Jungkook has taken over this matter, it isn't right for me to interfere."

"Brother-in-law, Sister-in-law..." Huang Zhishu turned to the silent Jeon Hong and his wife.

"Jungkook knows his limits," Jeon Hong spoke up coldly.

Huang Zhishu was angered. She put on a disheartened expression. "Fine, all of you are treating Nancy like an outsider. It was one matter when she was only seen as an adopted daughter. Since all of you don't think kindly of her, let her return to the Brushweiler family and give up the Jeon name."

Jeon Hong and Ye Yunzhi did not care about this.

Elder Jeon, however, was angered into glaring at her. "Very good. Consider it that the Jeon family raised her for nothing then. From this day onwards, Nancy is no longer a member of the Jeon family!"

Huang Zhishu spoke in pain. "Since Nancy isn't a member of the Jeon family..." She turned to Jungkook fearfully. "You can't detain her."

Jungkook's lips twitched into a hint of a cold smile. "Since she isn't a member of the Jeon family, she won't be missed even if she dies."

Of course, even if she were an outsider with the Jeon family's name, her death would not affect anyone.

Huang Zhishu's original intentions were to rescue her daughter. She did not expect things to turn even worse. "Jungkook, that wasn't what I meant. I just wanted you to let go of Nancy..."

Jungkook's expression was indifferent, akin to that of the King of Hell. "If you make me repeat the word 'scram' again, don't even think about stepping out of the Yu Ting Villa!"

Mingyu was frightened into dragging Huang Zhishu with him as he ran out of the place.

Although they were both very unhappy, there was nothing they could do.

The Jeon family's elders excused themselves. Jungkook and Lisa finally returned to their bedroom to continue their private theme of 'making a baby'...

In the Jing Xin Residence behind the old Jeon mansion.

Huang Zhishu's legs were weak as Mingyu supported her to sit down on the sofa.

"Mom, things are going to become bad!" Mingyu's expression was dark and filled with reprimand. "You shouldn't have removed Nancy from the Jeon family at this time. If she remains part of the Jeon family, she would still have a layer of protection."

"I thought that Jungkook would let go of her if this happened." Huang Zhishu gritted her teeth in anger. "I didn't expect Jungkook to be this ruthless. He is completely inhumane!"

She held her son's hand. "Mingyu, what should we do now?"

"Sister's plot to kill Jingyuan must have failed." Mingyu was a smart man. "As long as Nancy's fake status as the Brushweiler family's only successor isn't exposed, Elder Long won't pursue this matter. She should remain unharmed and well."
