Bound to My Billionaire Ex novel Chapter 38

Chapter 38 Feeling Aggrieved

Rejoyla was still a bit vain, but after Ingrid's contemptuous look, she felt that she should cure Ingrid, who was always looking down on others just because of her family background, as if she was so noble. The money she was spending was not her own money. If she was really capable, she should earn her own money!

Rejoyla worked hard to support herself, and she didn't think Ingrid was in a position to look down on her. In her opinion, she was much better than Ingrid, who was completely dependent on her family's wealth.

Rejoyla and Ingrid got into a standoff.

Jason got impatient, "Since you don't want to apologize, then go talk to grandpa!"

Ingrid's eyelashes fluttered slightly. Yes, she still had her grandfather. She was Burton's own granddaughter, and Burton would help her for sure. So, Ingrid replied loudly with her chin held high, "I'm going to Grandpa right now!"

Hillary followed Ingrid hurriedly. She had to watch this fool in case she said anything that might be bad for her in front of Grandpa.

Rejoyla was about to follow when Jason looked at her, so she stayed where she was. Jason had just helped her, and Rejoyla always remembered the good things that people had done to her and forgot about the bad things that they had done to her. She had long forgotten about last night and smiled at him in a flattery manner.

Jason pointed to Paula, who was standing in the corner shivering, and told the housekeeper, "Fire Paula Thompson and tell the families we have contact with that Mrs. Thompson is a dishonest employee and remind them to be careful when hiring her!"

Paula's eyes widened at once. Jason's statement was cutting off the possibility of her going to work for another rich family. Her son was waiting for her money. Paula lunged at Jason, "Young Master, I was forced to do this. I won't dare to do it again! Please forgive me this time!"

"Huh, that's your reason for framing others? Will you harm me in the future because you are forced by others," Jason raised a faint smile and urged the housekeeper, who was standing still, "Didn't you hear me? Get rid of her quickly. Do you want this job or not?"

The housekeeper did not dare to delay, and got some servants to cover Paula's mouth and dragged her out. Originally, he wanted to say something to Paula because they were kind of distant relatives. But Jason was really angry this time, so the housekeeper decided not to cause himself trouble.

Rejoyla looked at Jason, who was standing on the side without looking at her, and rubbed the ground with her f, "Thank you for today!"

Jason weighed the monitor in his hand and said, "I helped you and you sent me off with a thank you. Rejoyla, your gratitude is so cheap!"

Rejoyla quickly looked up at Jason and was startled by the light in his dark eyes. There was only one thing in her head - DANGER!

She replied cautiously, "You're so powerful. There's nothing I have that you don't have. What else can I do but show my gratitude? Saying thank you might not be expensive, but it's my true gratitude. I'll just keep your help in mind!"

"Huh, you're going to get rid of me once you've gotten what you want... Rejoyla, don't you know that Ingrid went to Grandpa... What if Grandpa wants to silence you?" Seeing Rejoyla away from him, Jason was displeased. Was he that horrible? He had helped Rejoyla several times. What was wrong with Rejoyla's avoidance of him like he was a serpent? Shouldn't she have thrown himself at him? Why did she act so differently from the others? Sh*t!

"Oh," Rejoyla didn't really care. "Burton is Ingrid's grandfather. It's so reasonable for him to favor Ingrid. As long as he's not thinking of sacrificing me to save Ingrid's reputation, I don't care what story he will tell the others as long as he clears my name!"

Rejoyla was prepared for this. This was not the Lynn family. She was in the Sterling family now. And if she thought of herself as the same as Ingrid and compared herself to Ingrid and the other Sterling girls, she would sooner or later lose her mind and become a person she didn't even recognize.

So, Rejoyla thought it through. She never hoped for anything from Burton, so she didn't feel disappointed. Not to mention, to put it mildly, she was still earning a living under Brady, Ingrid's cousin. People had to compromise with reality. Even though she was an upright person, she couldn't keep it up when she ran out of food. As long as the Sterling family didn't touch her bottom line, she didn't want to fall out with them.

Hearing Rejoyla's words, Jason was completely furious.

"Ah... What are you doing?" Rejoyla looked at the dark-faced Jason in front of her and wondered what she had said that had annoyed this unpredictable man. Why was he looking at her with such a gloomy expression!

Rejoyla was pinned on the door and she pushed Jason, "Let go!"

"Rejoyla, Ingrid has her grandfather as her backer, but you also have me as your backer. Do you have to be so cowering? How could I let my woman suffer?" Jason pressed his forehead against Rejoyla's, and looked deeply into Rejoyla's eyes to make sure she understood who she was. Rejoyla tilted back, and she felt too much pressure to look at Jason's eyes. "They are your family. I am doing this for your good!"

'I'm not your woman! I have nothing to do with you!' Rejoyla shouted in her heart.

"Lair!" Jason unmercifully exposed Rejoyla.

"I..."

"Joy, are you in there?"

Rejoyla's pupils snapped shut and she covered her mouth in fear and shoved Jason, afraid that her voice would be heard by Jacquelyn outside the door.

"Go hide!"

Jason shook his head slowly.

"Joy, I'm going in!"
