Is A Cripple? Fine, I’ll Marry Him! 2

time he tried to stop her from leaving around noon, it wasn’t about the weather. It was because he wanted to see Anna, who returned from treatment at precisely that time each day. “What are you going to do if I don’t want to spend time with her?” Mabel raised her brow and challenged. “If you don’t want to go, then don’t bother staying in the Jackson residence anymore. Get out.” Glen frowned, surprised by her attitude. “What’s gotten into you today?” She’d never treated him like this before. Normally, whenever they met, she’d flirt with him or purposefully fall into his embrace. But today, she seemed distant. She offered him no warmth. “I’m the heiress while you’re just an employee. If you don’t want to be my driver, then leave.” “I’ll come with you.” He stood from his chair and walked over to Mabel’s side. They headed downstairs together. Halfway down, Mabel spotted Brett, who was supposed to be in the kitchen, and Julian, who usually stayed in the training room. Both were standing in the living room, grinning warmly at Anna, who had just returned home. She had never seen them smile with such tenderness and affection. “Are you going out, Mabel?” Anna looked at her when she spotted her. Mabel didn’t respond, but Melvin suddenly spoke up. “You should go together. Anna hasn’t shopped in a while either.” Before she could respond, Julian and Brett had already stepped forward. “I’ll come as well to protect… Ms. Mabel,” said Julian. “I need to shop for tonight’s ingredients,” Brett added. Their intentions were obvious, and Mabel couldn’t even bother to expose them. They were just using any excuse to be around Anna. At the mall, Mabel bought a number of outfits. Meanwhile, Anna stood quietly by the side and didn’t buy a thing. The three men kept urging her to pick something, but Anna only signed back, “Dad gave the money to Mabel. I shouldn’t spend it.” It wasn’t until Mabel picked out a white evening gown that Anna tugged on her sleeve. “Mabel, I really like this one. Can I have it?” Mabel’s tone was cold as she asked, “Why should I give it to you? Haven’t you taken enough from me already?” Anna bit her lip and started crying after hearing her remarks. The three men panicked when they saw her crying. Glen’s gaze turned sharp, like a blade, and he glared at Mabel. “It’s just a dress. Why won’t you give it to Ms. Anna?” Julian’s voice was filled with hostility. “You already have so many while Ms. Anna hasn’t bought a single thing. Don’t you think that’s unfair?” “Ms. Mabel, your attitude toward your sister is appalling!” Brett’s tone was even worse. Mabel’s eyes and voice went cold as she saw them all rush to defend Anna. “Unfair? You’re talking to me about fairness for an illegitimate child? Oh, stop making me laugh!” Anna burst into tears and ran away as soon as she finished speaking. “Don’t blame Mabel. I’m fine. I’ll go first,” she choked out before leaving. Seeing this, the three men didn’t hesitate and ran after her. And just like that, Mabel was left alone despite the fact that she had hired all three of them in the first place. Chapter 3 When she left the mall, it really started to pour. Glen didn’t come to pick her up, and Julian was nowhere to be seen either. She tried to hail a cab, but they just kept driving away one after another and didn’t stop for her. The sky darkened gradually. She held up her umbrella and walked aimlessly along the street, bored and restless. Just as she lost her sense of direction, a few thugs
