A Night with Her Cruel Mate
Chapter 146 Didn't You Recognize Me

"Mom, I'm home!" Jean had been busy all day in the company. When she arrived home, she was gravely exhausted.

Initially, Jean thought that Tina's appearance was an excellent opportunity for her to get close to Terence. However, after a day, he still didn't react at all. Anxiety was creeping in her mind. She was afraid that her plan might fail.

Of course, Jean didn't want to stay with Mandy in that measly apartment for a long time. The place was too small, and she didn't have the chance to get in touch with Terence.

Since Mandy moved out of Terence's villa, she was in a bad mood. However, she was different that day. When she saw Jean come back, Mandy rushed up and said, "You're back, Jean." "What's wrong with you?" Jean looked at Mandy in confusion.

Why did she suddenly change her mood?

"Have a seat." As she held Jean's hand, Mandy sat down on the sofa. She looked at Jean with hopeful eyes and said, "Jean, haven't you always wanted to get close to Sandra? Well, the opportunity just presented itself to us." "What opportunity?" Jean's eyes lit up.

Deep inside, she realized that if she didn't replace a backer, she would have a difficult time. Even if she were finally with Terence, Tina would desperately try to separate them.

At that time, Terence might help her only one or two times. However, he would inevitably grow weary.

The best way was to replace someone who could restrain Tina and solve Jean's worries.

As she held Mandy's hands, Jean said impatiently, "Mom, don't keep me guessing. Tell me what you can do."

Jean had always wanted to replace an opportunity to get close to Sandra, but she couldn't. Now that Mandy found a solution, Jean was excited.

"Here is the thing." Mandy said cheerfully. "I heard some useful news. Sandra will go to the temple to burn incense to fulfill her wish tomorrow. That's all I learned. When she will go, and what you should do to make her like you, that's what you have to think about." "Okay, I understand." Sandra seldom went out because of her poor health. Now that she finally decided to go out, Jean wouldn't miss such a chance.

Early on the next morning, Jean went to the gate of the temple mentioned by Mandy and waited. Fortunately, she was lucky enough to see Sandra soon.

After Sandra exited the car, the driver stayed at the gate. Sandra walked up the mountain alone. Then she entered the temple, prayed, donated money and went down the mountain slowly.

Jean had been following Sandra for quite some time. When she noticed no one around, she took out her phone and made a call. Soon, a man appeared, passed by Sandra and pulled off her bag.

Before Sandra could react, the man had already run away.

"Hey! Catch that thief!" It took Sandra sometime before to react.

Jean began to run and caught up with him. The man ran to a corner where Sandra couldn't see. Then he stopped and handed Sandra's bag to Jean. "Miss Gu, I've done what you asked me to do. The balance..." "Don't worry. You'll get what you deserve," Jean said with a malicious smirk. Then she frowned as she thought of something.

"Hey, you! Cut a wound on my hand," ordered Jean in a cold tone.

"No way!" The man hurriedly waved his hands. "Miss Gu, I just want money. I won't do such a harmful thing. I don't want to go to jail."

"Who will put you to jail?" Jean spat. "You are a man. How can I possibly beat you unscathed? It is the only way for it to be more realistic. I can win more sympathy if you cut me."

Jean anxiously looked behind her. Although Sandra's legs were not so flexible, she was almost there anyway. An impatient look painted Jean's face as she demanded, "Hurry up. I'll give you more money." "Really? How much more?" The man suddenly became enthusiastic.

"In addition to the price we have agreed before, I'll add fifty thousand. But you'd better hurry up. She'll be here soon," said Jean in a disgruntled voice.

The man thought it was a good deal and agreed without hesitation. He took out a fruit knife and scratched Jean's hand. The wound was not deep, but it still looked quite severe.

"Miss Gu, don't forget what you have promised me," said the man as he was about to leave.

Jean covered her wound and said, "Don't worry. You deserve it. Leave now and don't let anyone replace out about this.

When the man had gone far enough, Jean turned back to look for Sandra. Because she was in a hurry, Sandra fell on the stairs. She tried hard for a long time but failed to get up.

"Granny, are you okay?" Jean rushed towards Sandra and helped her stand up. "The air in this place is wet, and the steps are full of dew. Why are you here alone? Why don't you have someone to accompany you?" Sandra smiled bitterly. "Most of the people around me are young. No one would like to visit such a place."

Jean held Sandra's arm and said, "By the way, I got your bag. Do you have anything missing?"

When Jean handed her the bag, Sandra revealed a surprised expression. In a concerned tone, Sandra asked, "You are a girl. How could you..."

Jean smiled and kept silent. Sandra lowered her head and noticed the wound on Jean's hand. Then, she realized something. "What's on your hand? Is that a wound? Was it because of the thief?"

"Oh, it's nothing." Jean immediately withdrew her hand. "It's not a big deal. I'm fine."

"Miss, you..." Sandra looked at Jean with appreciative eyes. "I don't know how to thank you. You got hurt because of me. I..."

"Don't worry about this. I'm alright." Jean gave Sandra a reassuring smile. "I'll just go back and disinfect it."

Then, Jean touched Sandra's shoulder and said in a warm tone, "The most important thing is that you are safe."

"What's your name?" asked Sandra as she looked at Jean with a curious look.

"Granny, didn't you recognize me?" Jean presented herself to Sandra. "I'm Jean. I lived next to Terence's house when I was a child. Don't you remember?"

"Jean..." Sandra repeated the name and suddenly realized who she was. "Oh, is that you? Miss Gu? Julia's sister?"

"Yes, that's me." Jean revealed a cheerful appearance. "I recognized you at first sight."00000000
