Chapter 2122: Chapter 2117: Oh, who do you think you are?
“Jeremy, what are you doing here?” Annie Lawrence turned around and saw Jeremy standing just outside the kitchen, frowning and speaking with a hostile tone, “Were you eavesdropping earlier?”
Jeremy’s eyes were filled with undisguised disgust, resisting the urge to roll his eyes, he said coldly, “You think everyone is like you, fond of doing sneaky things like this?”
His words had a double aning.
Upon hearing this, Annie’s face instantly turned sour.
With her face turning green, she said, “Jeremy, what do you an? Who likes to do such sneaky things? Stop talking in riddles!”
Jeremy sneered, “I’m talking in riddles? Isn’t what I said the truth? You did those things yourself, and now you’re afraid of others talking about it?”
“You!” Annie’s anger caused her lips to quiver as she pointed at him, “Jeremy, don’t go too far.”
Jeremy retorted, “Even if I go too far, I wouldn’t be as shaless as you. Haven’t all the n in the world died out that you have to set your sights on my sister’s man? Annie Lawrence, I’m warning you, if you continue to target my brother-in-law, don’t bla for being impolite.”
“Don’t try to steal my brother-in-law away from my sister this ti!”
Annie was montarily stunned, and then her face abruptly changed.
Looking at Jeremy’s icy gaze, a hint of panic flickered in her eyes, but she quickly cald down.
“What’s this nonsense about stealing or not stealing? Stop spouting nonsense and get out of my way. I have no interest in listening to your drivel.”
Annie tried to push Jeremy aside as she spoke.
But Jeremy quickly grabbed her wrist tightly.
He looked at her with a cold, stern gaze and warned, “I don’t care if you genuinely don’t understand or are just pretending not to. If you dare hurt my sister in any way, I won’t spare you.”
“Let go of !” The pain caused Annie’s face to contort as she forcefully shook off Jeremy’s hand. She looked down to see a red mark where he had pinched her wrist.
Annie gritted her teeth and glared furiously at Jeremy.
She hadn’t expected the seemingly frail Jeremy to have so much strength.
It felt like her wrist was nearly crushed.
Annie did have designs on Ashton Heath.
But she would never admit it.
She believed that Jeremy’s accusations were just guesses, and as long as she didn’t confess, there was nothing he could do.
As for Jeremy’s warning, she didn’t take it seriously.
After all, he was just an adopted child from an orphanage, and she didn’t take him seriously.
Seeing Jeremy’s angry appearance, she couldn’t help but smile as a hint of derision flashed in her eyes. “Jeremy, you should worry about yourself first. You won’t spare ? Ha, who do you think you are? Even if I really did sothing, what can you do to ?”
“Do you think you can suddenly beco a wealthy heir like Joanna? Wake up and stop dreaming. You’re just an unwanted orphan. If your parents were rich and powerful, would they have sent you to an orphanage?”
“In this life, you’re destined to be from the lower class. Your biological parents are nothing more than poor people from the lower class. Oh, I seem to have inadvertently revealed sothing.” She covered her mouth as if she had accidentally spoken sothing she shouldn’t have, her face showing a trace of panic.
Then, with apologetic eyes, she looked at Jeremy, “Gosh, Jeremy, you won’t be sad, will you? There’s nothing wrong with being an orphan. Don’t feel inferior about it. After all, it’s not sothing you could have decided, right?”
