Chapter 1717 - 1725: Except for Yourself

"Why do you and Peter Gingery have so much to talk about? Your steamed bun is almost cold." Jane Sampson poked James Black’s steamed bun with her chopsticks, which had a small bite taken out of it by her earlier when she had been craving a bite.

Only after taking a bite did she realize it was bland and tasteless, not delicious at all, so she continued to eat her vegetarian bun.

James Black glanced at the steamed bun with the small bite missing, then at Jane Sampson’s guilty expression, and knew what was going on. He hooked the corner of his mouth, smiling faintly, and nonchalantly started eating it.

"By the way, Sampson, did you see the tweet Julie Sampton posted? Last night I saw Bright Sampton saying that Julie chose to withdraw the case, which I found strange, and then this morning I saw Julie Sampton had posted a tweet from her alternate account in the middle of the night." Mair Williams said quietly to Jane Sampson, "Julie Sampton took the money from the Chip Family."

"What tweet? I haven’t seen it." Jane Sampson shook her head.

Earlier this morning, she had been dragged out from the quilt by James Black, and along the way her mobile phone was kept in her pocket without ever being taken out, so she hadn’t had time to go on twitter to look.

Hearing Mair Williams say this, Jane Sampson finally opened her mobile phone and searched directly for Julie Sampton’s alternate twitter account.

Last night after Bright Sampton issued a statement saying that Julie Sampton decided to withdraw the case according to her own wishes, many netizens were asking why. Some were worried that the Chip Family was pressuring the young siblings, and others speculated that Julie Sampton had taken the money from the Chip Family to keep the peace.

But after Bright Sampton returned to the base, he handed in his mobile phone, and Julie Sampton, being in the hospital, had not responded. Unexpectedly, she actually tweeted in the middle of the night.

Jane Sampson glanced at the time, the tweet from Julie Sampton was posted around three o’clock in the morning.

Regarding David Chip bribing hotel staff to maliciously harm me, the decision to withdraw the case was personally decided by myself, and I entrusted Bright Sampton to go to the police station on my behalf to withdraw the case.

You weren’t wrong, I accepted the mental damage fee from the Chip Family and compromised.

I have paid the price for my own foolishness and naivety, and greed, and it’s my own fault. I also use the lessons learned with blood and tears to give a warning to those girls like me who think that life can be an easy shortcut.

Girls, in this world, no one can be relied upon.

Except yourself.

So, don’t place your hopes on others, that’s really foolish.

So this is it. Let’s never meet again. You walk your sunlit path, and I walk my single-log bridge. — Julie Sampton 2.

Julie Sampton’s alternate account only had this tweet left, all previous tweets targeting Jane Sampson had been deleted by her.

And underneath this sole remaining tweet, there were also quite a few netizens cursing her, but Julie Sampson did not make any responses.

Mair Williams sighed after Jane Sampson finished reading, "I don’t know if what Julie Sampton said about waking up is real or if she’s pretending, trying to say something nice to gain sympathy, but I just found out from a relative yesterday that this time Julie Sampson really took a walk from the ghost gate and back."

Seeing Jane Sampson looking over at her, Mair Williams understood Jane Sampson was quite curious too, so she whispered to Jane Sampson, "Julie Sampson was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, and my relative happened to be one of the doctors participating in the emergency care. My relative told me that when Julie Sampson was sent to the hospital, her entire pants were soaked in blood. She was pregnant and was pushed down from upstairs, hemorrhaging profusely, almost draining the hospital’s blood bank before her life was saved."
