Chapter 413
Jane’s words resonated in Anna’s mind.
Crippled…
Anna’s face instantly turned pale.
She had been facing this situation with perseverance and optimism.
All along, she had held on to the belief that it was the greatest happiness to be able to live and be with her family.
Still, nothing changed the fact that Anna’s right leg had become crippled, and there was no knowing if she would ever recover.
Anna’s heart felt like it had been pricked by a thorn.
She still recalled all the times she spent trying her best to move her right leg, but failed to do so even when she was drenched in sweat.
There was nothing more she wanted than to be able to live independently, but her current condition meant that her husband and son needed to stay by her side and take care of her. There were many times when she closed her eyes and realized that she had become a burden to her family and she had lost her pride.
Now, Jane was putting it across so plainly.
It was as if she genuinely wanted to break Anna’s spirits and humiliate her completely. She was forcing Anna to confront the fact that she had become a burdensome cripple.
“That’s enough, Anna. Stop talking, let’s go…”
Jack felt like his heart was being sliced apart by a knife.
As the person who had been taking care of Anna since her accident, of course Jack noticed what she was going through.
Anna had worked very hard in her recovery by cooperating and not complaining at all.
But Jack knew that Anna was definitely affected by what had happened to herself.
It was just that Anna wanted to stay rational and give herself hope. At the same time, she didn’t want the people around her to worry, so she endured everything she was going through alone.
For Anna to hear these words from Jane felt worse than death. She was simply rubbing salt on her wounds.
“No! I have to say what’s on my mind! I just want to ask you, Jane, why didn’t you agree to Micheal Laton’s request?!”
Anna had prepared herself for Jane’s humiliation. She had already been through so much, what else could she not endure? Even if her heart was broken into a thousand pieces, she still needed to get to the bottom of this matter and get an answer.
“Because I already have the family that I want, which include the two people standing beside me, as well as my friends, senior brothers, and my teacher. These people are my real family, and not you *********who only care about taking advantage of kinship in order to gain benefits for yourselves.”
“Anna, since you’re just a cripple, you should focus on recuperating. Don’t continue to be such an eyesore to me!”
Anna’s eyes filled with tears when she heard Jane’s reply.
She thought to herself, “She already has the family that she wants?
“But those people are not her real family.
“I am her biological mother!”
It was Anna who had carried Jane in her womb for nine months, and who had gone through so much pain before finally giving birth to her daughter.
Because of her difficult pregnancy, Anna had so many close shaves with death. In fact, she almost died while giving birth to Jane due to her advanced age.
Back then, everyone advised Anna not to give birth to Jane. After all, she already had seven sons. It was too risky for her to give birth in her thirties.
Even Jack was afraid for Anna’s health.
However, Anna stood against everyone’s objections and insisted on giving birth.
She endured all that just so she could give Jane an opportunity to be born into this world.
Anna had sacrificed so much for Jane to be here. Without Anna, Jane would not even exist.
How could Jane think that there were people who were more important than her biological mother?
Jane’s harsh words struck a nerve.
Anna had a crazy side that she never unleashed.
It was like schizoprehnia.
However, Anna always kept it under control.
In addition, her life had always been smooth-sailing and blissful.
There were not many reasons for Anna to go crazy.
Now, she had been humiliated over and over again because of Jane.
Jane was causing her to lose control of her sanity.
“Jane Fowler, everyone in the world can criticize me, but you can’t! I’m your biological mother! I gave you life! Without me, you wouldn’t be alive at all!”
“I know you *****me, but I’ve already become like this… My right leg is crippled, and I don’t know if I’ll be able to stand up for the rest of my life. If retribution is real, I’ve suffered enough. Isn’t that enough? Doesn’t your heart hurt at all when you see me like this?”
Anna was clutching at her chest. Her eyes were bloodshot.
“Anna?”
Jack had a bad feeling when he saw his wife like this.
As the man who loved Anna the most in this world, he naturally knew that there was a raving
***hidden deep in her heart.
When Anna was provoked too much and lost control of her emotions, she would transform into a porcupine that spiked everybody who tried to come near her.
At this ***, Anna was showing signs of losing control.
“***, calm down, don’t be angry…”
At this ***, Madelyn decided to make her presence known. She looked at Anna with tears in her eyes.
Anna’s gaze gradually became less crazy when she saw her daughter’s teary eyes, begging her not to lose control.
“I’m very sorry. My heart does not ache for you at all. Instead, I feel so refreshed watching you suffer retribution and become a cripple. Anna Fowler, if you really want to stay here and listen to me humiliate you, I’ll give you what you want! I can tell you even more terrible things to hurt you!”
‘Madelyn, hurry up and get lost with your mother. Your crying is so annoying. Don’t ruin my appetite!”
Madelyn turned around and knelt on the ground. She begged Jane, “Janie! I know… This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have come to Fowler family. I angered you. If I leave the family…”
Before Madelyn could finish speaking, Jane slapped her across the face.
The sound was resounding.
Madelyn was stunned.
There was a stinging sensation in her cheek.
The red handprint was shockingly obvious.
Madelyn turned her face to the side. She was trembling uncontrollably.
She thought to herself, “What the ***
“Did I just get slapped?”
“In front of so many people?”
She did not expect Jane to hit her in front of everyone.
Jane waved her hand and looked down contemptuously. “I’m tired of hearing these words from you. If you say it one more time, I’ll hit you until you stop.” Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
This sentence did not sound like a joke at all.
Her words sounded quite murderous.
Madelyn had never been in such a situation. She was so frightened that her knees buckled, and her lips turned pale.
“Maddie!”
Anna quickly went over to check on Madelyn’s injuries. She looked at Jane with some anger. “Jane Fowler, you’re too much! From the beginning to the end, it was us who let you down. Maddie was innocent! Why did you hurt Maddie like this!”
“****… Stop it. It’s right for Janie to *******me. If I hadn’t taken over Janie’s spot and enjoyed your love for so many years, Janie wouldn’t have cut ties with Fowler family. Everyone wouldn’t have suffered so much..
