Chapter 254 You Deserve It
Jennifer caught Sandy’s smug look, well aware that her doing was intentional.
Mary quickly interjected, “Sandy, what are you talking about? It’s already been clarified that this was a misunderstanding.”
“But there’s no smoke without fire. Why are there no rumors about anyone else?” Sandy shot back.
Millie’s expression darkened. “Sandy, that’s enough.”
Sandy’s emotions flared up. “I’m not wrong. You need to talk to Jennifer. Otherwise, she’ll bring shame to our
Chapter 254 You Deserve It
family…”

Before she could finish, Timothy delivered
a sharp slap across her face.
Jennifer stared in shock as Sandy’s face
reddened and began to swell.
She had intended to confront Sandy herself, but she hadn’t anticipated Timothy’s reaction.
Sandy covered her face, tears streaming down her cheeks. “Why did you hit me? I didn’t say anything wrong!”
“Pay attention to your attitude!” Timothy snapped, and his expression was stern. “The paparazzi’s false report has been handled. Who are you to judge here?”

Sandy didn’t dare argue with him, so she simply cried and buried her face in Mary’s
arms.
Mary felt sympathy for her daughter. “Even if Sandy said something wrong, you shouldn’t have been so harsh.”
“I’m teaching her a lesson,” Timothy retorted, and his anger made him appear somewhat intimidating.
Millie took a sip of her coffee and remarked, “Mary, you’ve got to take care of Sandy. She hangs out with those girls at the bar every day, and her reputation has taken a hit. How can she expect to marry into a good family?“.
Mary retorted, “Sandy is young, and I want to keep her by my side for a few
Chapter 254 You Deserve It
more years. But Timothy is no longer
young. He’s been engaged for ages, and there hasn’t been a hint of Jennifer’s
pregnancy.”

Millie’s expression suddenly turned grim.
Both she and Mary were acutely aware of how to push each other’s buttons.
Jennifer stayed quiet, wanting to avoid getting dragged into the conflict.
Timothy took her hand and said,
“Come on, let’s go to the garden and see Grandma.”
Jennifer nodded, relieved to leave the tense atmosphere.
As they walked away hand in hand, Millie

watched them with mixed feelings.
Although she wasn’t happy about

Jennifer, hoping Timothy would marry a socialite instead, she realized this wasn’t the right time to voice her frustrations. For now, she would have to tolerate
Jennifer.
In the garden, Jennifer felt nervous when she spotted Angelina arranging flowers, worried about how she would perceive the earlier rumors.
As they approached, Timothy greeted,
“Grandma.”
“You’re back,” Angelina replied, surprised.
Then she turned to Jennifer and asked, “Have you finished your work at the
. Chapter 254 You Deserve It
studio? Timothy mentioned you’ve been really busy, so I didn’t want to rush you for dinner.”

Jennifer glanced at Timothy, realizing he had helped buy her some time and feeling
touched.
She came back to her senses and quickly replied, “Yes, I’ve been a bit busy lately. I had planned to make time to visit.”
“It’s fine. Just focus on your work for now. You can come when you’re free,” Angelina said. “Come here, let me see you. You’ve lost so much weight!”
“I haven’t been getting enough rest lately, so I’ve dropped a few pounds,” Jennifer replied, omitting the fact that she had been trapped in the Hargreaves Villa’s
Chapter 254 You Deserve It basement for days and starved.

Angelina frowned with concern. “Don’t let the rumors get to you. I don’t believe in them. I only trust what I see, and I know you’re not that kind of person.”
“Thank you for believing in me,” Jennifer said, and tears welled in her eyes.
She had feared that no matter how fond Angelina was of her, she might still harbor doubts. She was pleasantly surprised by Angelina’s unwavering trust.
Angelina patted her on the shoulder. “Oh dear, if you weren’t engaged to Timothy, you would have more freedom. After all, our Clark family owes you.”
“Grandma, please don’t say that. Timothy

treats me very well,” Jennifer replied, glancing at Timothy with tears
threatening to spill over.

Then, they followed Angelina back to the living room.
Sandy came over in tears, whining, “Grandma, Timothy slapped me!”
“What did you do?” Angelina asked.
Sandy glared at Jennifer. “Her scandal has caused such a stir and brought shame to our family. Why shouldn’t I be allowed to talk about it?”
Angelina replied, “Then you deserve it.”
Mary said in displeasure, “Angelina, you can’t be biased. Since Jennifer and

Timothy got engaged, their relationship hasn’t progressed, and there’s still no hint of her pregnancy.”
At that moment, Jennifer suddenly covered her mouth and retched, prompting everyone to stare at her.
