Just when she was about to dodge to the side, however, Sabrina caught a glimpse of someone coming
from the corner of her eyes. Instantly, she stayed immobile.
Thud!
âOh My Goodness! Mrs. Jadeson, what are you doing? How can you treat someone so violently?â
The loud thud of the flower pot hitting the head, followed by a scream of pain, elicited the housemaids to
run over urgently.
Jasmine hadnât expected the crowd of housemaids to arrive at the scene. Her muddled mind clouded by
rage had finally cleared. Panic started to grip her. She wanted to retract her actions and words, but it was
too late.
Sabrina was holding on to the injury on her head, which was bleeding profusely. In the next moment, she
fell unconscious with a loud thud.
âMs. Hayes!â
âHurry! Inform Old Mr. Jadeson and the doctor! Hurry!â
The garden was plunged into chaos in a few short seconds.
Sabrina had already been moved when Jonathan arrived at the scene. All he could see was some
bloodstains left on the ground with the remnants of the broken flower pot.
He was breathing so raggedly that his beard was quivering. His tightly clenched fists indicated his
suppressed rage.
Jasmine, who was still there, felt her knees weaken when she saw his reaction.
âDad, I-â
âWhat are you doing? How dare you come to my house and create such a ruckus? Both you and your
husband are the same. Useless! Are you trying to kill me by pissing me off? Are you two trying to get
yourselves kicked out of the Jadeson residence?â
Red, hot anger rolled through him. He even spoke of not letting Jasmine and Stephen stay at the
Jadeson residence.
Hearing that, Stephenâs heart dropped.
âNo! That is not our intention!â He denied it immediately.
He turned to Jasmine beside him and saw that she was staring blankly, clearly shocked by Jonathanâs
words. Raw anger shot through him, and he pulled her to kneel with him before Jonathan.
âHurry and tell dad why you did what you did! What has that Sabrina done to you that made you hit her
with a flower pot?â
âItâs her fault. She was targeting our son, so I c-came here to find her. She wanted to marry our son to
become the future lady of the Jadesons.â
Jasmine finally regained her rationale and started sobbing on Stephenâs shoulders.
Before Stephen could say anything, Jonathanâs temper spiked again. âWho told you that? Have you hit
your head somewhere? I really donât understand how Stephen managed to marry such a stupid woman
like you.â
His harsh and cruel words struck a nerve.
They aligned with the remarks Sabrina had thrown at her earlier.
Jasmine was indeed useless. She didnât have a wealthy family, talent, or intelligence. After all, how else
would Kira dare to use her if that was not the case?
In the end, Stephen dragged a sobbing Jasmine away.
Once those two had left, Jonathan went upstairs to check on Sabrinaâs condition.
âOld Mr. Jadeson, why are you here?â
With her injury bandaged, Sabrina was surprised by Jonathanâs appearance in her room. She instantly
struggled to sit up.
Jonathan gestured for her to lie down.
âHow are you doing?â
âIâm fine.â Sabrina was slightly embarrassed.
Nothing much can happen to me.
After all, I did not dodge Jasmineâs flower pot on purpose. Naturally, I have taken some precautions to
not get hit too hard.
Jonathan heaved a relieved sigh. âThatâs good to hear. Iâm worried that brat will cause another scene
when he gets back.â
Sabrina chuckled. âHe wonât. Itâs only a minor injury.â
âReally?â
âYes.â
âWhy didnât you dodge it? You could have with your reflexes,â asked Jonathan calmly as he sat there.
Huh?
Sabrinaâs expression froze.
âOld Mr. Jadesonâ¦â
âI know Jasmine is stupid most of the time, but this is the Oceanic Estate. Previously, she wouldnât have
dared to cause a scene. So there must be a reason for her actions.â Jonathan casually added.
His expression had turned colder with a hint of harshness in his gaze.
Sabrinaâs face paled.
She wasnât afraid of Jasmine, but even Sebastian needed to deal with Jonathan carefully. She was still in
his grasp, so she didnât dare to underestimate him.
âOld Mr. Jadeson, Mrs. Jadeson has misunderstood. I have no feelings for Devin. I have no idea where
she heard that from.â
âIs that so? You can ignore it then. Youâre a smart girl. I know you wonât do something that is forbidden.
Since everyone will be affected if your brother got mad again.â
For a brief moment, all Sabrina could do was stare at the slightly smiling Jonathan. Her throat felt as
though something was stuck there.
She couldnât utter a single word.
Her fingers were icy cold.
