Chapter 243 This Is Our Family Matter
"I know a little about it. Why did you fall down from the third floor?" John had concealed this matter very well, and Jessica only knew that he had fallen to the ground and didn't know what had happened exactly.
Sam probably knew that but he didn't tell Jessica no matter how she asked.
Jessica had no choice but to come to the hospital by herself to make it clear.
It was definitely not because of his carelessness.
Someone must have plotted it.
Her brother was a man of noble status, and Mr. John was so powerful in LC City. Who didn't want to live to plot against Mr. John?
"Tell me the truth. What happened?" Jessica sat on the edge of the bed and said in a serious tone.
John frowned slightly.
Obviously, John was not happy with her questioning.
Jason guessed that it must have something to do with Nina. His wife had a prejudice against Nina. Jessica had fallen out with Sam, her eldest brother and sister-in-law because of this at home.
It also angered John.
Jason couldn't let his wife repeat the same mistake and provoke John again, lest they would be alienated.
"Honey, John is still sick. You should care more about him." Jason had a refined scholar temperament, and his words were always appropriate and gentle.
Jason looked at John and said with concern, "You look good. You should be fine."
Jason was trying to change the topic.
"Yes, nothing." John cast a grateful glance at Jason. They had grown up together, but Jason knew John better than his sister.
Jessica had always been trying to get to the bottom of the matter, especially about her favorite brother.
"You're already in hospital. How can you be all right? I asked Brian and he said that your waist was injured. Tell me honestly. What happened? "
Facing his sister's unquestionable expression, John still calmly repeated, "Nothing."
What they were talking about could be heard clearly in the leisure area.
When Nina saw Jessica come in, Nina knew that Jessica would definitely ask about it.
Nina didn't intend to hide anything.
So Nina stood up from the sofa.
Angela held Nina's hand and shook her head, telling her not to fight against Jessica head on.
"It's okay, sister-in-law." Nina had never thought of going head to head with Jessica. After all, John was his sister favorite.
Nina was willing to take a step back to ease the tense relationship between them.
Nina came to the bedside, bowed her head to Jessica and said apologetically, "I'm sorry. John was injured because he wanted to save me."
This was the first time that Nina had lowered her head to someone.
She was the little princess of CM Island. She was noble and proud. She never lowered her head to others, nor did she easily do something wrong.
Sometimes, in order to avoid making mistakes, Nina would choose not to do it.
So in other people's eyes, she was a little cold and arrogant.
John felt as if something had melted in his heart, causing his heart to tremble.
"You again?" Jessica turned around and didn't buy Nina's apology.
"This is our family matter." With a slight frown, John stretched out his hand and pulled Nina to his bed and let her sit down.
John wanted to drive Jessica away and asked coldly, "Sister, I need a rest."
Echoed Jason. He reached out to take Jessica's hand and said, "Honey, let's go first."
"I just arrived." Jessica shook off his husband's hand, stepped forward and looked down at Nina.
Obviously, Jessica was angry.
But instead of being impulsive like last time, Jessica calmed down a lot.
Jessica was not so stupid as to lecture Nina in front of her brother and hurt the harmony between her and John again.
Jessica buried her anger in her heart and asked in a low voice, "What happened to you? Would he fall down from the third floor to save you? "
Jessica didn't seem to be angry. She just wanted to find out the truth.
Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is our family matter." John held Nina's hand and didn't let her hand go.
John knew how powerful his sister was.
Jessica was furious. "I'm your sister, and we're a family. This is also my family matter."
"Jessica, have you forgotten the unwritten rule of the Shi family?" Angela was worried about Nina. When Nina came over, Angela followed her and kept an eye on Jessica's every movement.
Jessica was a little afraid of Angela. After all, Angela was the daughter of the Xu family in Imperial City. No one in the Shi family dared to disrespect her.
It was not until then that Jessica noticed that Angela was following Nina. Jessica narrowed her eyes slightly.
They used to mind their own business and get along well with each other.
Since Nina entered the house, Angela had always been against Jessica intentionally or unintentionally.
Although Jessica was angry, she didn't dare to vent her anger.
"Angela, what do you mean?"
Angela cupped her chin and said in an elegant and calm tone, "Our father has said that although the people of the Shi family are all in one family, after each of them has their own new family, they should leave the original family.
You are John's sister, but he has already married. As Nina's sister-in-law, you really can't interfere in other people's affairs. "
Angela's words were reasonable, and Jessica had no way to refute her. Jessica could only swallow her anger and unwillingness in her eyes.
Viv had told Jessica that she couldn't hurt the harmony of her family because of Nina, or it would benefit Nina.
'Don't be fooled easily.' Jessica thought.
With a forced smile, Jessica said, "I'm just concerned about my brother. Nina as his wife, Nina actually made him hurt. That doesn't make sense."
Angela didn't have a good impression of Jessica. Since Jessica splashed wine on her, Angela had more complaints about her.
Nina had helped Angela and had a good relationship with her son, so Angela naturally took Nina's side.
"Why can't a husband protect his wife? Sometimes, didn't Jason get hurt because of you? Why doesn't Jason's family blame you for letting him get hurt? " Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
Jessica was rendered speechless.
Jason held his pale wife in his arms and smiled gently, "I volunteered to do that."
"Then John was also willing to save Nina." Angela said unhurriedly. Looking at Jason, she felt a little regretful that Jason didn't live up to her expectations. As a good man, he was neither lack of money nor appearance, but had to suffer from the pain behind Jessica.
Jessica's lips trembled. She had never been wronged like this and be scolded by other people.
"Sister-in-law, my husband should be nice to me. It's his duty to get hurt for me. As for the people of the Fu family, they don't dare to blame me. I'm the daughter of the Shi family. Can they afford to offend me?"
What Jessica said made Jason have mixed feelings. He loosened his hand on her shoulder and looked at his wife with obscure eyes.
There seemed to be something in his heart that was slowly unfolding.
Maybe that was the truth.
Jason couldn't help but wonder if he hadn't seen the truth clearly?
'No, I don't think so.'
Jason shook off all the messy thoughts in his mind, put his arm around his wife's shoulder again and said softly, "Since John is fine now, let's go back first. We'll talk about it another day..."
"Even you think I was wrong?" Jessica shook off Jason's arm and raised her head to question him.
