Chapter 103 Please Listen to My Explanation

The voice sounded powerful like an angry beast king roaring in an ancient deep forest.

Seeing Jacob running over, Layla was so panicked that she stopped doing her nails and quickly stood

up, spilling nail polish all over the floor. And the bright red nail polish stood out on the white carpet.

"Jacob, please listen to my explanation."

He ignored her and quickly rushed over.

The burly maid glanced at him out of the corner of her eye but did not stop what she was doing.

She was Layla's confidant Clara whom Layla had brought back from abroad. Clara had begun to work

in the White family before Layla's mother's death. She knew some fighting skills. She was 5.7 feet tall

and weighed 150 kilograms, so she was burly among women.

Clara had heard Jacob's voice, but she knew Avery was a thorn in Layla's heart and decided to pull it

out no matter what. So, she chose to continue although he had asked her to stop.

Just one slash would be enough because it could ruin Avery's pretty face. And the wound would never

recover like the relationship between Avery and Jacob. There was a rift, so they would never get back

together.

No man would love a woman with a scar on her face. And Jacob would fall in love with Layla over time.

So, Clara decided to attack Avery despite the huge risk.

Bang!

Hearing the gunshot, the maids were so frightened that they screamed and fled in all directions.

After the bullet knocked the knife out of Clara's hand, John approached her and kicked her calf, forcing Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

her to kneel. Then, he fixed her hands behind her back and said, "Don't move! "

The bullet had grazed her arm. If it had been a little lower, it would have damaged her hand. She was

scared by the gunshot and did not dare to move.

Jacob helped Avery up and asked in a muffled voice, "Are you okay?"

Despite the pain, Avery thought she was fine. Her forehead was bleeding, but she didn't worry about

herself at all. Instead, she hugged Ethan and said, "Send for a doctor. He has an allergy."

Her anxious look was in sharp contrast to Layla's leisurely face. After Layla got closer to Jacob, she did

not pick up Ethan but tried to shirk responsibility, saying, "She pushed Ethan downstairs. He is so

young. But she attempted to murder him. How cruel she is!"

Her acting skills were clumsy. If it were in the past, Jacob would not expose her. But he was fuming

with anger today, so he grabbed her by the collar and said, "Layla, I'm not blind."

Layla was stunned to hear this. She wanted to defend herself, but Avery had no time to talk nonsense

with her. Regardless of her bleeding wound, she quickly put Ethan on the sofa and ordered, "Bring a

towel and cold water over. I will give him a cold compress. John, go to some allergy medicine."

"Yes, Miss Adams."

John let go of Clara and quickly left the villa.

Layla wanted to take the opportunity to blame Avery, so she happily said, "Jacob, did you hear her

vicious words? She intends to give Ethan a cold compress on such a cold day. His allergy is serious,

but she still wants him to catch a cold!"

Avery couldn't bear it anymore, so she shouted, "Shut up! Are you his biological mother?"
