Chapter 484 Let Me Do That for My Wife
Apart from that pair of blue and noble eyes, there was no trace of youth on the man's face. His skin was much rougher than before, and he even had a beard.
It seemed that this year, he had experienced hardships, and his entire person had aged many years.
However, when he looked at Viola, his eyes were still filled with tenderness and love.
"Viola, it’s been a long time."
Viola stood rooted to the ground and stared at him.
It had been almost a year since they last met. She did not expect to see Jerry again. He had changed. He seemed to be more mature and steady.
After sizing him up for a while, her red lips curled into a smile. "Good to see you again, Mr. Felton," she said.
Jerry was slightly surprised. It seemed to be because of the way she addressed him, but after looking at Ormand behind her, he understood.
He gently opened his arms and said expectantly, "We've been apart for so long. Can you give me a hug?"
Viola didn't reply. She first turned to look at Ormand.
Ormand lowered his head. He did not say anything, and his expression couldn't be seen.
In front of Ormand, hugging Jerry wasn't unacceptable. It would be okay, would it?
Thinking of this, she tentatively walked forward and opened her arms.
However, when she was close to Jerry, Ormand pulled her arms.
She turned her head and saw Ormand walk around past her to Jerry. His face was gloomy and he seemed to be unhappy. He looked like he was going to hit Jerry.
On the first day of returning, would Jerry be beaten up?
"Honey..."
Before she could stop him, Viola saw Ormand open his arms and reluctantly give Jerry a hug.
He said, "She is my wife. It is inconvenient for her. I will do it on her behalf."
With that, he patted Jerry on the back twice.
Jerry was lost for words.
The two men both looked disgusted.
Viola burst out laughing. That was fun.
"Alright, how long are you two going to hug each other? Why does it seem like I shouldn't be here?"
Ormand and Jerry immediately let go of each other. Both of their faces darkened and they looked extremely awkward.
Viola held Ormand's hand and brought him to sit across from Jerry.
"Why do you suddenly want to come back?"
Jerry smiled and suppressed his disappointment. "I didn't suddenly want to come back. After being in a foreign country for so long, I always feel that I am still worried about something. So I came back to take a look. A few days ago, I sent a package to you with a letter in it telling you about this. I thought you knew..."
"You sent a package?"
Viola felt strange. Then she recalled that she seemed to have received a delivery.
"I'm sorry. I've been busy these days, so I don't have time. The express delivery has always been kept by Jimmy. I really forgot to take a look."
Jerry smiled in relief. "It doesn't matter. It's not a big deal."
The three of them exchanged a few more words.
Viola said, "By the way, do you know about the Felton family recognizing Sherlyn? You have another sister."
"Sherlyn?"
Jerry didn't know about that. He had never inquired about the Felton family in the year he taught in the foreign countryside.
He had only inquired about Viola. He was happy to know that Ormand treated her well.
"It's my contracted female star, and also my good friend at Washington Welfare Institute. She and my third brother are..."
Viola paused.
When she spoke of Sherlyn, her and Ormand's expressions turned grim at the same time.
"What's wrong? Did something happen?" Jerry keenly noticed the change in their emotions.
Viola turned to look at Ormand. Seeing that he had no intention of objecting, she asked, "Do you know about Roman's matter?"
Jerry did not speak, his face solemn.
Viola said, "I'll take you to see Sherlyn. If you see her, maybe you can find some useful information."
The three of them quickly set off back to Viorin.
This was the first time that Jerry had seen this half-sister of his.
However, he still had some impression of the things that happened before Sherlyn was born, and he always felt a little sorry for her.
At that time, his father brought him back to the Felton family from Portugal and asked Pamela to put his name on the family pedigree list. After Pamela heard the news, she found it hard to accept and left the Felton family during her pregnancy.
It was said that there was a mental problem with her, causing Sherlyn to stay outside for so many years.
Viola said, "She is recognized by the Felton family. In just a week, she became like this. When I found her, she was imprisoned by
Ronian on the top floor with chains. She was mentally ill and only recognized Ronian. Once she left Ronian, she would go crazy and self-harm."
Jerry listened quietly and sized up the emaciated girl on the bed.
Russell, who had been sitting silently by the bed, added, "We suspect that Ronian used the same method to imprison Mrs. Felton and inject unknown drugs."
Jerry pondered for a moment. "So that's how it is. No wonder," he said.
He seemed to know something. The others in the room turned to look at him.
He calmly explained the truth about the Felton family.
"The current Mrs. Felton is my father's second wife. After my father passed away, my first brother, Ronian and I were all fighting for power."
Jerry continued, "My first brother died in this battle for power, and I was transferred out of Salt Lake City by the Secret Bureau of Investigation. When I came back, things had settled. Ronian successfully got the power. I also heard that Mrs. Felton fully supported him to take the position, and she used all her family's wealth to establish his prestige in the family."
He paused for a while before going on. "At that time, I was curious. No matter how much she doted on this son, she would not have to give up all her belongings. When I think about it now, I do think that Mrs. Felton was a bit strange at the family assembly, as if she was controlled by Ronian."
The other three quietly listened to his explanation. The room was exceptionally quiet, and no one interrupted.
"Viola, I think I have a way to deal with this. I can help you." Jerry looked up at Viola, his beautiful eyes exceptionally firm.
Viola and Russell's eyes lit up at the same time.
Ormand lowered his head in thought. It was hard to tell what he was thinking.
After discussing the plan in detail, they decided on the final plan.
At the restaurant in the evening, Jennifer and Konner, who had been so tired in the National Bureau of Investigation, sat at the dining table trembling.
These two days, their nightmare was to have meals.
Every time they ate, it was as painful as being sentenced to death.
Once again, Ronian was supported down the stairs by Dewey and the servants, and he slowly sat at the head of the table.
He did not immediately eat. Instead, he coldly questioned Jennifer, "How is it?"
Jennifer replied honestly, "Sherlyn's condition is very bad. I heard that after she was sent to Viorin, she went crazy once and even bit Russell. After that, she was injected with a tranquilizer, and she hadn't woken up. She has not gotten any better."
When Ronian heard this, there was no worry on his face. Instead, he relaxed a lot.
"You have to go to the Hobson family often and keep an eye on Sherlyn's health."
"I got it." Jennifer lowered her head.
"By the way, remember to let Viola let the bodyguards go in next time. Don't let the situation of locking them up in the basement happen again. Their responsibility is to keep you safe. You have to keep them under your eyes at all times. You understand?"
Jennifer was a bit reluctant. But after a few seconds, she said, "Yes." Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Ronian lazily swept his gaze toward Konner, who was sitting opposite Jennifer. Just as he was about to question him, the bodyguard at the door suddenly rushed in, his face full of horror.
"Mr. Felton, Mr. Jerry, Mr. Jerry is back!"
