Chapter 909: Chapter 909: Planned Abortion
Jenny merely cast a cold glance at George: "Ling Feng, letâs go to the other side. Having a fly buzzing around here really spoils the appetite!"
Georgeâs expression darkened: "What did you say? Are you insulting me? Iâm also a member of the Johnson Family. What right do you have to insult me? Yet youâjust for your pretty boyâchoose to clash head-on with the Nilas Family. Have you ever really considered the interests of the Johnson Family?"
"On that matter, youâre in no position to raise your voice at me!" Jenny said flatly, "Donât forget, when you question me, I am the Johnson Familyâs first-in-line heir!"
Georgeâs face was grim; this was the greatest humiliation of his life! Across the entire European nobility circle, the Johnson Family was the only one whose first heir was a woman. This had made George infamous in the circle!
A man who gets overshadowed by a woman! For George, who had always aspired to inherit the Johnson Family name, this was an indelible disgrace!
"First heir? A woman whoâs been played and abandoned by men, a woman mired in homosexualityâwhat right does she have to be the heir of the Johnson Family!" George couldnât help but sneer.
The conflict between Jenny and George attracted a lot of attention.
When Jenny heard what George said, her fingers tightened to the point of whitening: "George, what exactly are you trying to do?"
George Johnson chuckled triumphantly: "Everything Iâve done has, of course, been for your benefit, dear cousin! Youâre the Johnson Familyâs first heir, but youâre into women. To turn your preference around, I, as your cousin, have gone to great lengths and finally brought you a miracle cure!"
With that, George snapped his fingers: "Come in then!"
As Georgeâs words landed, a familiar figure appeared before Jenny.
"Jenny, long time no see!" A magnetic voice accompanied the arrival of a blond, glasses-clad man who looked at Jenny with deep affection: "Do you know how long Iâve been searching for you? Itâs such a joy to see you today!"
The man in front of her was none other than Mike, Jennyâs ex-boyfriend from her Stanford University days!
đŻđ»đźđđŹđźđđđ€đđđĄ.đđđ¶
Years had passed since Jenny last saw Mike, and as her gaze fell on him, a flash of anger ignited within her eyes, her hands trembling uncontrollably.
"Mike, how dare you show your face in front of me!" Jenny spat through gritted teeth, "Iâm going to kill you! I swear Iâll kill you!"
A flicker of panic flashed through Mikeâs eyes as he turned instinctively to George.
George stepped forward: "I say, cousin, arenât you being a bit too ruthless? No matter what, Mike was your boyfriend during your college days. It was already wrong of you to abandon him for the sake of the heir position, and now you want to silence him permanently?"
With that, George shot Mike a meaningful glance before continuing, "Mike, I know youâve always held feelings for my cousin. I brought you here today so you could take this opportunity to win her heart back. If there are any misunderstandings between you two, feel free to clear them up. Iâll mediate for you!"
Mike, reassured by Georgeâs promise, relaxed visibly, and looked deeply at Jenny: "Jenny, I know I was wrong, but my feelings for you are sincere, I..."
Jennyâs face went pale, her rage barely concealed. If it werenât for the setting they were in, she would have torn Mike to shreds!
With a resounding slap, before Mike could finish his words, Ling Feng had already stepped forward and smashed his palm against Mikeâs face, cutting his words short.
"Hey, kid, youâve got guts!" Ling Feng sneered at Mike while sizing him up playfully: "Daring to try and steal my woman right in front of meâyou really think Iâm an easy target?"
Mikeâs face had swollen from the blow, and he looked at Ling Feng with venomous resentment: "Who do you think you are, hitting me like this?"
Ling Feng turned to George, his tone dripping with sarcasm: "George, why donât you explain to this idiot just how much nerve I have?"
George paled; this pretty boy had the audacity to act so brazenly in publicâit was outrageous! Despite his fear of Ling Feng, George had no choice but to stand his ground for the sake of his plan: "This is a Johnson Family matter. As an outsider, please refrain from interfering, or else donât blame the Johnson Family for being ruthless!"
Ling Feng raised an eyebrow: "Your family matter? Fine then, as an outsider, I wonât get involved!"
George froze, not expecting Ling Feng to concede so easily.
The next second, Ling Feng had already strode forward, grabbed Mike by the collar, and dragged him outside: "Since this is your familyâs business, then this guy is an outsider too, right? Donât worry, Iâll make sure he doesnât disrupt your conversation!"
George was dumbfounded; with Mike gone, what was he supposed to use to provoke Jenny?
"Stop this at once..." But at that moment, Jenny blocked George.
Jennyâs expression was grim as she glared at George: "George, Iâve always thought that no matter how fiercely you tried to compete with me, it was just internal family strife and had never crossed my boundaries. But I never expected Mike to be under your control. It seems everything must have been orchestrated by you! Bravo, George, I never imagined you were hiding so much!"
George was taken aback; Mike was actually Harryâs pawnâhow was he supposed to know the history between Mike and Jenny?
Still, George couldnât afford to back down now and said stubbornly, "So what if Mike is mine? As the second heir of the family, am I not allowed to keep a subordinate without reporting it to you?"
Jennyâs cold gaze bore into George: "Fine, Iâll commend your courage! But remember, starting today, I will no longer consider you part of the Johnson Family. I will use everything at my disposal to crush you and make you taste the depths of despair. Donât doubt meâI will succeed!"
Having said that, Jenny turned and left, heading in the direction Ling Feng had disappeared.
After that incident, Mike had gone missing for six years, during which Jenny had exhausted all means to find him but to no avail. Now that she had found him, she would never let him go!
But as Jenny left the venue, she found Mike lying on the ground like a dead dog, while Ling Feng stood nearby with his arms crossed: "Resolved already?"
Jenny took a deep breath: "George poses no real threat to me."
She glanced at Mike, her voice tinged with frost: "What happened to him?"
"Nothing much, he was just too noisy, so I knocked him out," Ling Feng replied casually, nudging Mike with his foot. "Iâll hand him over to you. Iâm sure youâd love to take charge, wouldnât you?"
Jennyâs gaze turned icy as she looked at Mike, then had him dragged to the Johnson Familyâs underground facility under strict guard.
"Ling Feng, would you accompany me for a walk?" Jenny asked, stepping out afterward. Unwilling to return to the suffocating venue, a trace of melancholy showed on her face.
