Je leaned against him , feeling an immense sense of security , Wendy laughed in anger .
Do you think that I care ? Then , she raised her brows and asked , So , youre saying that , if it wasnt me who did it but Jerma , then youd be willing to pay ? James was still angry about what happened two hours ago , so he nodded without hesitation Not a penny less .
Jenna was deeply moved , and she looked up at him with eyes full of love .
However , it was utterly disgusting and nauseating in Wendys eyes .
1 heard that store clerk telling someone to erase the surveillance footage , but it doesnt matter .
Well wait for the police .
Even if the police dont come , I still have evidence .
Wendy said .
Amy still held that tom piece of cloth tightly in her hand .
The specks of blood on it had long dried .
Hearing this , Morgan looked at Sarah .
Ill be stating this .
Sarah or rather , Sarah Watts you are no longer a member of DTS .
The companys legal resources will no longer be available to you ! Given your actions , 1ll also be pursuing legal responsibility .
Whatever compensation is owed to Ms.
Wendy must be paid in full .
As for the financial damages to The company , you wont escape that either .
Sarah collapsed to the floor .
Ms.
Vance ! I can explain .
I only helped h Ther because I thought Ms.
Sanders was Mr.
Franks woman ! The truth of the drama had already surfaced even before the police arrived , Morgan didnt even glance at her and called for security .
sarah screamed like a madwoman .
Im willing to testify ! It was Me .
Sanders who struck first ! Or she was the one who insulted the other Ms.
Sanders first f As security dragged her away , her panicked ramblings were completely incoherent .
No one could tell which Ms.
Sanders she meant .
However , everyone upstairs .
seemed to understand .
Morgan looked at James .
Mr.
Frank , as you said earlier , as long as it wasnt Dr.
Sanders , youd pay in full .
Morgan , Jenna got nervous and tried to divert the conversation .
Why are you only listening to her side ? Arent you and James good friends ? You shouldnt be asking him to pay .
Her words were incredibly clever .
If it was Wendy who caused the trouble , then Morgan shouldnt be asking James for compensation .
It Wendy hadnt , and since Morgan and James were friends , she still shouldnt be aslong him … Her words were full of defense for James , yet completely devoid of apology or remorse .
Wendy couldnt help but laugh .
So , I should ask you for the money ? Can you afford it ? Or will the Sanders family pay on y your behalf ? you , I thought it was a Wendy , dont be so cruel .
Jennas tears fell in a flash .
1 only came to pick a dress to celebrate Mr.
Frank Seniors birthday .
When I ran into y coincidence .
But now it seems like you did this on purpose to humiliate me .
She invoked Roberts name like a golden ticket to avoid blame Janses , who had been silent all this time , finally spoke coldly , If this is the outcome you want , then Ill take responsibility for Jenna , Ms.
Vance , name your price .
A trace of disgust appeared on Morgans beautiful face at that moment .
She frowned , glancing at Jenna and James .
I dont feel like settling this privately anymore .
Lets wait for the police .
This involves a criminal financial dispute .
It izt Mr.
Frank uit with only the dresss original price , Id be suffering a lauge loss .
Then , she tumed to Wendy and said softly , Dr.
Sanders , would you like to rest in the lounge for a while ? Once the police are done taking statements , Ill drive you Her attitude changed completely .
Jenna stared wide eyed at Wendy When did that bitch get so close to Morgan ? Wendy shook her head .
No need , Ms Vance , I still need to choose a dress .
I wont have time to come back tomorrow .
Things got a bit chaotic today How about this ? Morgans voice tumed sweet and accommodating .
Ill deliver it to you tomorrow .
All your past gowns were custom made at DTS and handled by me .
Ill pick the one that suits you best , After some thought , Wendy nodded .
Then , PUbay to trouble you , Ms.
Vance .
Morgan personally escorted Werly to the lounge , leaving James and jenna frozen Amy quiddy followed , mumbling , Thank goodness Ms.
Vance came , ollwawise Ms.
Sanders would have suttered so much injustice .
The words floated into Jerinas ears .
She clenched her teeth in anger , but before she could say anything , Jaimes pushed her hand away Call Chris and Mary , James said Jenna blinked in confusing Why ? Morgans calling the police .
If you dont want to be detaliard , Chris and Mary bettercome and beg Wendy for mercy , panes said .
What does this have to do with Wendy ? she asked , choking up .
James , you and Morgan are good friends ; shed listen to you .
She wont .
James looked at the lounge door that was slowly closing .
Wendy once saved Slemmas lite .
As the words fell , a wave of darkness swept over jenna .
bar vestades she treated Wendy so well .
She didnt even care about saving face for the Frank family .
the clenched her fists , biting her lip hard to contain the jealousy surging inside her like a storm .
How is it that Wendys In is so blessed ? Tames had already tuned to leave .
That overwhelming feeling of isolation surged through her .
She had no choice but to call her parents .
mten minutes later , Chris and Mary arved with the police .
They immediately pulled Wendy aside .
fat are you trying to do ? Are you trying to destroy lennas lite ? Mary scolded furiously Youve already decided to leave and get a divorce .
So , why are you still stirring up trouble ? Chris added sterly .
Not far away , James overheard and turned with a frown .
Leave ? She was leaving and hadnt even told him ? He was about to ask Wendy about it when Jenna grabbed his am .
Tames , stay with me .
Im scared .
The police were curently questioning the DTS stati , and Jenna would be next James took one last glance at Wendy from a distance before turning back There would be time to ask her later .
Wendy frowned and asked Chris , How did you know ? If Jenna hadnt told us , how long were you planning to hide it from us ? Do you even see us as your parents anymore ? Chris replied irritably .
They had supposedly come to plead for Jenna , yet their one and expressions were more like they were interrogating Wendy .
Wendy had already given up hope in them , so she couldnt be disappointed any further .
No matter how they berated her , her expression remained calm and emotionless Are you finished ? she asked once they paused .
What kind of attitude is that ? If youre set on ruining Jenna , then cut ties with us ! just pretend we never had a daughter like you , Chris yelled at Wendy .

Fine Wendy looked up abruptly , staring straight at Chris .
Her answer was firm 212 Chapter 21 That single , decisive word stunned both Chris and Mary into silence .
You .
What did you just say ? Chriss face tumed red with fury .
I knew it , youre just an ungrateful brat ! ow , ungrateful brat was the It was a phrase that Wendy had heard so many times that it had practically engraved itself into her bones .
From her childhood until now , Insult most frequently hurled at her .

Yet no matter what she said , she was always at fault in the eyes of Chris and Mary .
Whats the point of saying all this before Chris could finish , someone stepped in front of Wendy , blocking her from view .
** This matter hasnt even been concluded yet .
The police havent even said anything and , as her parents , you come in and blindly accuse Dr.
Sanders ? Arent you afraid of becoming a joke ? Morgans voice was characteristically bold .
She stood before Wendy , shielding her from the flood of accusations With a serious look , she turned and said to Wendy , Do you want to sit down for a while ? Wendys pale face regained a bit of color .
She shook her head gently .
No need , Ms.
Vance , Ms.
Vance , please for the Frank familys sake , lets not pursue this matter further .

Let the one who caused the trouble deal with it .
Dont let Jerma get dragged into this .
Youve always gotten along well with her .
Morgans angerflared .
Arent I just doing what you said ? Whoever causes trouble should take responsibility ? Jenna caused this mess , and yet you as her elders still defend her ? I honestly wonder what kind of disaster shell create next .
Her words were full of scom for Jenna .
She continued , And as for my relationship with jenna , It was only because of James .
But between him and Dr.
Sanders ? Even James doesnt carry that much weight with me That silenced both Chris and Mary .
Did Wendy mean more to Morgan than James ? Even so , Mary wasnt ready to give up .
Ms.
Vance , even if youre closer to Wendy , Jenna is her sister , her flesh and blood .
That should count for something .
Meanwhile , James , who was helping Jenna give her statement , glanced over at Wendy .
She stood silently behind Morgan , her eyes lowered , looking so alone and forlor that it tugged at his heart .
A wave of sympathy unexpectedly washed over him .
Please , believe me .
I fell by accident .
I didnt do it on purpose ! I never meant not to pay .
Theyre all malding things up to blame me .
Suddenly , Jennas tearful voice pulled Jamess attention back A trembling hand clutched tightly at his sleeve , revealing how frightened she truly was .
James looked up and said finnly , The surveillance footage was erased , and witness testimonies alone arent enough to conclude .
The police will investigate thoroughly , so dont worry .

Vance .
Ill still need your assistance with the dress situation .
Hettone was steady , neither distant not overly warm , but there was an unmistakable air of reserve that made her seem somewhat unapproachable .
Motgan bit her lip , brows furrowing slightly .
Dr.
Sanders , Id like to ask a favor of you , I know I can never repay you for saving Siennas life during surgery .
But i still want to handle todays matter in a way that you wish .
Her apology was genuine , and her favoritism towards Wendy was clear .

Back with the Sanders family , they were still andous after the polices warming that Jenna might face jail time .
How could this happen ? One problem after another .
