Crises in Love novel Chapter 452

I chuckled at the commotion, shaking my head with laughter, thinking, "Zora, you just love stirring the pot, acting like you're completely innocent."

Then, from the other end of the line came Zora's roar, "Are you out of your mind? You lunatic!"

Jessica was no pushover. She snapped back, "Say that again! I hit you because you were asking for it, running your mouth like that!"

"You really don't know when someone's on your side, do you? I was sticking up for you, and you don't have a clue!" Zora retorted with a hint of complaint.

"Cut the crap with the self-praise. Who are you siding with, huh? Aaliyah's at least my family, and here you are, a mere nanny, trying to meddle in our relationship! Me lashing out at her doesn't mean I'm on your side. Keep poking your nose in, and believe me, you'll regret it!" Jessica hissed through clenched teeth.

I glanced at Hannah, who raised an eyebrow and smirked, shrugging, "Looks like she's finally snapped out of it!"

Hannah snickered, "Some people just need a good scolding to remember who they are!"

Their bickering grew louder, suddenly interrupted by a piercing scream.

I thought to myself that Zora had no chance against Jessica. After all, Jessica had been spoiled rotten by Hazel. I continued munching on my apple, the ruckus over the phone as noisy as a farmers' market, until it abruptly stopped.

Hannah looked like she was enjoying the drama. She grinned at me, saying, "Looks like Zora really did start this mess!"

I shared my perspective with Hannah as an outsider, "Whoever starts trouble never really gets away with it. Think about it. If Jessica were to actually hit Zora, and Zora threw a fit, no one would be there to look after Hazel. If we left Hazel in Jessica's care, that'd be a nightmare!"

"You worry too much! Those two will just knock some sense into each other. Just sit back and enjoy the show, but don't get too close, or you'll end up splattered with blood!" Hannah warned me with a laugh.

"I know Jessica too well. When she’s mad, she's unstoppable, like a force of nature. Plus, with that thirty-million-dollar issue hanging over her head, this is far from over."

I was genuinely concerned for Jessica; she was a troublemaker who didn't realize the mess she'd gotten herself into.
