Chapter 78: Can She Tolerate It? Reward Activity (2)

Chapter 78: Chapter 78: Can She Tolerate It? Reward Activity (2)Zoey Leaf glanced at her quickly, lowered her head, and said no more.

Mia Ginger took a heavy breath, and her heart slowly sank, leaving her momentarily dazed, not knowing where she stood.

Clearly, it was summer, but she felt cold.

Alone and helpless.

This feeling struck her again, just like a week ago at the Ginger Family.

The difference was—

Last time she only felt anger, but this time she was filled with sorrow.

Mia Ginger fell completely silent, not saying another word.

But Camilia Davis, sitting on the sofa, couldn’t hold back any longer. Looking at Old Master Jackson, she hastily said, "It’s not true. Mia has been a good girl since she was little, not the type to be reckless. Zoey doesn’t know and is speaking wrongly. As her mother, wouldn’t I know? She’s with me every night."

"Heh," Lydia Williams laughed softly, "Sister, we understand your desire to protect your daughter. After all, you two have depended on each other for many years and share a deep bond. But you can’t speak against your conscience! Mia’s engagement to our Koa Jackson is based on her innocence and good behavior. Without that, she could never match with Koa."

"She truly is a good child!" Camilia’s eyes were red with urgency, "Old Master, you must believe her!"

As she finished speaking, she quickly turned to Aiden Jiang and Charlotte Chester, urgently saying, "Mayor Ginger, Madam Ginger, Mia is your biological daughter, you must believe her!"

"Of course we believe her!" Charlotte Chester hastily said, looking directly at Old Master Jackson, a rare hint of anger flashing across her face, "It’s true Mia can be stubborn, but her character is good. How can we just... act on the baseless claims of two random people?"

"They aren’t just two random people!" Lydia Williams countered sharply.

"Who knows if they’ve been bribed!" Charlotte Chester was relentless.

She wasn’t naive, and unlike Aiden Jiang, she wasn’t blindly respectful of Old Master Jackson. With things reaching this point, she naturally sensed that Zane Jackson primarily wanted to break off the engagement.

Even when Zuri Ginger was first brought up, he only reluctantly agreed.

If Mia is under suspicion now, how could Aiden Jiang still have the face to propose Zuri to Koa Jackson? This engagement would surely be off, right?

No way!

She showed a rare anger, arguing fervently with Lydia Williams.

Old Master Jackson was so annoyed by the commotion that his head was spinning. Zane Jackson, right beside him, abruptly turned his head to scold Lydia, "Stop fussing, shut up!"

Lydia instantly fell silent.

"How about this," Zane Jackson bent down slightly, speaking in a voice everyone in the living room could hear, "Let the girl go to the hospital for a gynecological exam, if she’s innocent, I have no objections to the marriage."

"Nonsense!" Old Master Jackson was so angry his face turned green, "How can you insult someone like this?"

"Dad!" Zane Jackson’s face darkened as well, slowly saying, "You’re getting older, and usually, no matter what, I wouldn’t dare to go against your wishes. But with things reaching this point, I can’t pretend not to know. Ayla and I only have Koa as our child, we can’t let him suffer such grievances!"

When he mentioned Koa Jackson’s mother, Old Master Jackson’s expression changed suddenly.

Lydia’s expression changed as well.

She lowered her head, practically gritting her teeth to pieces.

Zane looked up at Aiden Jiang and Charlotte Chester, "What do you think?"

"Let her go then." Charlotte Chester said irritably.

Aiden Jiang didn’t respond immediately, slowly lifting his gaze to look at Mia Ginger standing a few steps away.

That’s his daughter.

He once held her in his arms, loved and teased her.

He and Charlotte didn’t have much affection for each other, but he truly adored this first child of theirs. Especially since she was born premature, as small as a Little Cat, curled up in his arms, utterly endearing.

How could he let his own daughter endure such humiliation?

Yet he suddenly recalled that not long ago, when Old Master Jackson suggested cohabitation, he had asked the child to consider and reply, but she simply said, "Dad, I am willing."

Did Mia like Koa Jackson?

Could she endure this?

Aiden Jiang was momentarily unsure.
