A Matter of Wife and Love

Chapter 394

Chapter 394 Living Is Worse Than Being Dead

“That’s enough!” Melissa, who had had enough, waved her hand and grumbled, “Your brother is right. It’s highly unlikely that Amelie was the one behind this.” With that, she briefly shared her analysis with Jodie.

However, no matter what Melissa said, Jodie refused to listen as she was convinced that Amelie was behind it. She let out a growl and interrupted Melissa, saying, “Why are you siding with her? What benefit has she given you?” She then pushed Melissa’s hand away, disappointed. “Have you forgotten how she bullied me back then? She has long been wishing for my demise!”

Melissa was getting impatient; Jodie was acting stubborn and refused to listen to her. As she stood up, she gripped her exquisite purse and said coldly, “Jojo, your brother is right about you being responsible for this accident. This wouldn’t have happened if you hadn’t thrown the bodyguards off.”

“Mom—” Jodie wailed.

Melissa tucked her hair behind her ear and spoke while ignoring the pitiful look on Jodie’s face. “You’ve caused a big stir here, and your brother has good intentions for sending you abroad. Be on your best behavior throughout your stay; you can even pick up a new hobby to distract yourself. I’m sure that Leo will let you return within two years. Grasp this opportunity and don’t blame others once the opportunity is gone. Rest well and spend some time reflecting on your actions.” With that, Melissa left the room as she was fed up with Jodie’s attitude.

“Mom—” Seeing Melissa leave made Jodie anxious. She kept beating the blanket, feeling dismayed that her mother had ignored her. After she was done beating the sheets, she covered her face with her hands and let them get soaked in her tears. It took her some time to finally calm down. She was so drained that she lay still on the bed with her eyes shut.

Not long later, a nurse entered the room and quietly replaced the IV solution without waking her up. “How is she?” asked another nurse while walking in.

“Shh. She’s asleep.”

“Oh.” After a brief exchange, both of them retreated to a small room next door.
