Jasmine clenched her fists angrily. Since her family name was Yackley, she was inferior to Daniel in all
aspects. She could accept Daniel suppressing her, but how could Adina, the illegitimate daughter, step
on her too?
She walked forward in her high heels, sneered, and said, “Adina, do you really think you can have a
place in the Jones family when you‘re Mdr. Winters? Dream on! I‘ll become the heir of the Jones family.
When the Jones family falls into my hands, the first thing I‘ll do is remove you from the family!”
Adina‘s heart was filled with rage.
She dug her fingernails into her palms and tried her best to restrain her emotions that nearly exploded.
“Your mother misbehaved and slept with my uncle before they got married. Then, she married into the
Daugherty family with an illegitimate daughter. I really don‘t know how your mother could do such a
thing!” When Jasmine saw Adina remaining silent, she thought that Adina was frightened, so she
continued to speak aggressively.
“You inherited your mother‘s promiscuity too. You slept with a man at eighteen, and you had a baby out
of wedlock. You even gave birth to four illegitimate children...”
When she spoke, she raised her hand and pointed at Adina‘s face with her finger. Her face was full of
dismay and mockery.
Adina‘s gaze turned dark.
?
?
She responded before she could think rationally. She raised her hand, grabbed Jasmine‘s index finger,
and said in a cold and deep voice, “Didn‘t your mommy ever tell you not to point at people?”
Right after she spoke, she exerted some strength.
Crack!
It was the sound of joints breaking. “Aargh!”
Jasmine‘s scream resounded throughout the Jones family‘s entire mansion, and messy footsteps
immediately approached the restroom. “Mom!” Jasmine covered her broken index finger and cried as
she rushed into Zhenny‘s arms.
“Adina... She–She broke my finger. It hurts!” She gasped in pain and stammered. Zhenny lowered her
head and saw her daughter‘s index finger collapsing weakly on her hand. It looked like her bone was
fractured.
She instantly became enraged. “This illegitimate b*tch! How could you hurt my daughter?”
After she said that, she raised her hand and attempted to slap Adina.
Dillon narrowed his eyes and rushed over to stop her. But Duke grabbed Zhenny‘s wrist first before he
threw her aside with great force. Zhenny could not find her footing, and she nearly fell to the ground
with Jasmine in her arms.
“Mr. Winters, are you going to oppress the weak with your power?” Zhenny controlled her anger, and
with dissatisfaction, said, “My daughter‘s finger is fractured. I have to make this right for her!”
She was implying that she wanted to break Adina‘s finger too.
The silent Mr. Jones‘ expression turned dark. He knew that Addy and Jasmine were not on good terms,
and he was fine with them quarreling. He did not expect things to intensify to a physical confrontation.
Most importantly, Jasmine‘s finger was broken, and it was not a minor injury.
“Grandpa, you have to do something about this,” Jasmine cried painfully.
“Adina said that my family name isn‘t Jones, so I‘m not qualified to be the heir of Jones Corporation. I
got angry when I heard that, so I argued with her. But she just broke my finger. It hurts! Am I going to
be disabled? I still want to draw and play the piano. What if my hand becomes paralyzed?” Duke wore
a contemptuous expression. Just as he was about to speak, Adina stopped him.
