Chapter 128 Jade Bracelets

• At the Jackson residence, Brian settled Jade in the room on the second floor. At first, Brian wanted to give Jade the master bedroom but she insisted on staying in the room opposite of Janet and said that she could use the opportunity to climb the stairs to exercise. After putting down her luggage, Jade rushed downstairs and sat next to Janet. “Janet, I have something to tell you!”
• Janet looked up at Jade with a blank expression and realized that Jade’s eyes were red. Jade had heard about Janet’s life story from Brian just now and couldn’t help but sympathize with her, especially when she heard that she had been farming under the hot sun when Ms. Cook went to the countryside to get her. The mere thought of it made Jade feel distressed. I’m sure Janet must’ve suffered a lot during her years in the countryside. Even though she doesn’t know how to please people like Emily does, it is all caused by the environment she grew up in so I can’t blame her. The only person I should blame is us adults for taking Emily by mistake.
• Emily sat next to Megan and complained to her about Janet. “Mom, how can Janet say those things at the party today? My reputation is completely ruined. Fortunately, Old Mr. Collins decided to let it go. It would be nice if Janet agrees to join the painting competition. That way, I won’t be misunderstood as a girl who doesn’t know how to paint.” Hearing this, Janet immediately rolled her eyes. You were brave enough to steal my painting, so why are you afraid of being misunderstood?
