Chapter 12 The biggest stain
Inside the hospital room.
Adele is nervous, when she sees two peoples barging into her room.
“Why are you here?’ Adele asks.
Catherine and Jacqueline walk inside the room, and glance through Adele with sneer. Catherine says, “It seems that Jack still
has feelings for you bitch, he even let you stay in nice VIP room.”
“Mother, after all. She is already a half dead person. Our Moore family are all kind. Dad let her stay in her, which is for the sake
for her timid and useless son. Dan has already done everything he can, we don’t need to dispute for this.” Catherine says.
Catherine and Jacqueline keep saying horribly, like there is no one else in the room.
The more Adele has heard, the pallor her face turns.
Adele wants to talk back to them when she hears they are defaming Jamie. But with the thought that Jamie just went back to the
Moore’s house, and Jamie hasn’t gotten herself a solid support. All her words disappear.
Catherine and Jacqueline become more complacent, when they see Adele doesn’t dare to fight back.
Catherine says mockingly, “Do you know what life Jamie has lived on the Moore’s house? You really believe that he lives in the
life of young master of the Moore’s family? Jamie is nothing but a bastard, returning to the Moore’s family doesn’t destroy this
disrepute truth. Not only in the Moore’s house, but all the upper classes have despised him for this.”
“You...” Adele covers up her heart with shaking hands, and her face is so pallor that looks like she is going to faint.
“Me? What’s the matter with me? I only tell you the truth, that’s all.” Catherine says. “If you know that the consequence is hard for
you to bear, then you shouldn’t have done it at the first beginning. What kind of people give birth the same kind of son. No
wonder Jamie is so useless.”
“That’s enough! Stop!” Adele yells. She can put up with all the humiliation from them, but can’t bear to let them humiliate Jamie in
front of her.
But Catherine doesn’t going to let her go easily, she keeps saying,” People like you, is the biggest stain of Jamie’s life. Every day
you live, is just a reminder to Jamie that he is a bastard son. Though he comes to the Moore’s house, he could never get rid of
his origin.”
“Ah!” Adele shouts. Regardless of her weak body, she gets off bed with bare feet, and grasps Jacqueline’s hair, slapping her.
Jacqueline covers her swollen check, looking at Catherine astonishingly, “Mom, she hits me..”
“You bitch! How dare you hit my daughter!” Catherine can’t stay cool at all after Jacqueline was slapped. She comes forward,
and slaps Adele.
Adele is weak; a slap from Catherine makes her failed on the bed.
Catherine and Jacqueline are not planned to stop, they keep beating Adele.
The noise inside the room alerts the nurses. The nurses run into the room and stop both Catherine and Jacqueline. “Stop! What
on earth do you think you are doing!”
Catherine and Jacqueline are pulled away. Jacqueline tides her hair, coldly looking at Adele, “If I were you, I will kill myself, the
sooner the better! In case I become a burden to my son.” Then, Jacqueline leaves proudly with her mother.
Adele’s against the bed with a pale face. No matter how the nurses persuade her to go back to bed, she refuses.
What Jacqueline said to her lingers in her mind, like a knife keeps stabbing her chest.
Thinking of what situation Jamie is under, she can’t stop questioning herself. Is she really made a mistake?
Is her existence really a burden to Jamie?
Jacqueline looks back to the room when she walked out. She asks Catherine doubly, “Mom, is that really going to work?”
Catherine answers confidently, “Relax and watch the coming show.”
