Chapter 2

I was so calm that they couldn't see my disguise.

Shirley suspected that she had misheard. She was stunned for a moment and questioned, "Arden, what did you say?

Say it again if you dare!

Don't forget that your mother has a serious heart disease. She is looking forward to seeing you get married. Do you want her to die with grievance?"

This vicious woman actually cursed my mother!

She was always like this. Relying on my love for her, she trampled on my dignity wantonly.

But what she didn't know was that my mother had been dead because of her.

Behind her, Jenkins looked at me with a smile and said slowly, "You must be Arden. I'm Jenkins, her first love. She must have told you about me."

He deliberately slowed down and stressed the words "first love".

Then he said, "Shirley asked me to find an medical expert to treat her friend's mother. It's for you, right? Shirley, just say it straight. I won't be so stingy."

Then, he reached his hand out.

I felt nauseous and slapped his hand away.

Seeing this, Shirley directly became angry.

"Arden, what's wrong with you? You don't have the ability. Jenkins kindly found an expert to treat your mother. What kind of attitude is that?

Apologize to him quickly, or I'll call your mother to cancel the wedding and make her regret having such an unfilial son!"

In the past, every time Shirley was angry, she would scold me. As long as she was happy, I would let her be.

But later, it seemed to have become a habit of hers.

I had really spoiled her!

As a result, she could even run away from our wedding!

"I'd rather die than apologize to such a bastard!" I sneered.

Jenkins rubbed his hands and sighed,

"Shirley, your fiancé is not a good person. Why did you marry him?"

Hearing this, Shirley's face darkened, and she raised her voice, "Arden, you are not only petty but also rude!

Apologize to Jenkins! Don't make me angry!"

I looked at Shirley coldly. From the moment she angered my mother to death, my love for her had disappeared.

My mother's ashes had not been buried yet, so I had no time to argue with them.

"Out of my way!"

I pushed Jenkins away and took the selected jade bangle to the cashier.

But he suddenly stepped forward and blocked my phone.

"Wait a moment. How much is this bangle? I'll take it."

I glanced at him coldly, "Don't you understand the principle: first come, first served?"

Jenkins smiled and looked at Shirley, "Shirley, do you like this bangle? I'll buy it to you."

Shirley nodded as if she was taking revenge on me for not obeying her, "I like it very much."

Jenkins nodded with a smile and said, "I can buy it at a double price."

Hearing this, the shop assistant's eyes suddenly lit up.

When my mother came here, before she died, she really liked this bangle. I couldn't give it to them, so I gritted my teeth.

"I'll pay three times!"

The bangle was valuable. I didn't know what kind of family Jenkins was from. When I called out the price, he immediately offered four times the price.

He sneered and said, "Shirley is the most important person to me. No matter what, I can't give this jade bangle to you, unless you apologize to me!"

Then, he suddenly whispered in my ear, "By the way, that picture is not bad, huh?"

He wanted to humiliate me, because Shirley didn't love me at all. But he didn't know that picture caused my mother's death!

When I thought of my mother, I couldn't control my anger.

In the face of Jenkins, I couldn't help but punch him in the face.

"Go to hell!"

Before he could react, he fell to the ground with his hands covering his face and howling.

I was still angry and wanted to punch him again.

But Shirley stood in front of him and cursed me loudly,

"It's fine if you don't apologize, but how dare you hit him? I'll call your mother right now!"

She was threatening me with my mother.

"It's useless to call my mother. No matter who comes today, I'll beat him to death!"

"Okay, don't regret it!"

After that, Shirley took out her mobile phone.

Having suffered a loss, Jenkins stood up and pounced on me. "How dare you hit me! I'll kill you!"

That was exactly what I wanted!

However, two strong men suddenly appeared out of nowhere and caught me tightly.

With a vicious look on his face, Jenkins punched me hard in the lower abdomen.

I felt pain and bent down.

After kicking me a few more times, Jenkins laughed proudly and then ordered the two men, "Come on! Beat him hard!"

Hearing this, the two of them punched and kicked me.

I hugged myself, and intense pain came from every part of my body.

At this time, Shirley had already called my mother and looked down at me coldly.

"Arden, you wouldn't have ended up like this, if you had apologized to Jenkins earlier.

And you were the one who hit him first. You brought this upon yourself."

"You want me to apologize?" I roared, "In your dreams!"

Shirley was so angry that her hands were shaking. "Arden, if your mother has a heart attack again because of you, don't regret it!"

However, to her surprise, my mother's cell phone rang.

Shirley frowned. Seeing that I was about to be beaten to death, she finally stopped the men.

"Did you secretly take your mother's mobile phone, because you were ready to make trouble?

Arden, you're such a villain, but don't think that I can't do anything to you just because of this. I was a little apologetic for leaving without saying goodbye at the wedding, so I specially asked Jenkins to find an expert to treat your mother. Now it seems that you don't care about your mother's health at all."

I felt pain all over my body and looked at Shirley with red eyes.

"It's your fault that my mother died! Don't disgust me!"

Shirley sneered and said, "Well, if I can't get in touch with your mother, your mother won't be cured!"

"Hello, Dr. Zack. No need to treat Arden's mother. Yes, cancel the appointment!"

"But..."

On the phone, Dr. Zack sounded a little hesitant.

Shirley frowned and asked, "Any problem?"

"Miss Lane, don't you know that Arden's mother passed away a few days ago?"

Shirley's face froze, and she said in disbelief, "How is that possible? She was still fine on the wedding!"
