695 Jail Time (1/2)

As he buckled his seat, he took out his phone and dialed a number. Nora was settling Ava in the baby seat when she heard her mother's voice that startled her.

”My little prince! Are you missing mommy?”

”Mom, where are you?” asked Jackie without acting cute like his mom.

Clara frowned when she heard his voice and answered, ”I'm currently in Boston. What's wrong my baby boy?”

”Come back home! Right now!”

Clara's eyes widened at her son's tone. She felt apprehensive, ”Did someone dare to bully my son? Who is it? Tell mommy, I'll beat them all up!”

”It's not me. It's Xiu,” replied Jackie in an aggrieved way. Since everyone called him a kid, he was gonna act like a kid and complain to his mommy. After all, what was the best way to get your revenge? He just had to say a word to his mother and the rest would be done!

”Xiu? What happened to Xiu?”

Jackie sniffled as he told her, ”Xiu is in a hospital right now. These people bullied her so much. It's attempted murder, I'm telling you. You have to come back and get justice for her.”

Clara was immediately in an alert mode as she coaxed him a bit to calm down and asked, ”Give the phone to Nora.”

”I'm right here,” said Nora as she sat behind the steering wheel. She knew her brother had put the phone on speaker on purpose. How could this little ancestor not have his own evil ideas?

”Tell me in detail what happened?”

Nora took a deep breath and told her everything from start to finish without hiding anything from her mother. She knew if she omitted anything this little one would surely spill the beans.

Clara was furious when she learned everything. Even the pen in her hand snapped because of her anger. ”Someone called your sister a bastard child and you stood aside like a prop?! Aren't you the elder sister? She always stands up for you even though she is younger than you and you just stood aside?!”

Nora pouted, ”It didn't look like she needed my help. I'm always there whenever she needs me. Today, if I intervened, she might have beaten me up as well.”

”That'd be good,” said Clara. ”As an elder sister, you can't even protect your younger siblings. Why did I leave you there if you can't even do this much?”
