Trap me in your love novel Chapter 177

"I..." Jessie didn't expect that Ken would come in at this moment. She just stood there, not knowing what to do.

"What are you doing here? Didn't I say that no one is allowed to come in here? Here, nobody dares to defy my order. Jessie, don't think that you can do anything you want just because you are my granddaughter." Ken walked towards her step by step, with anger burning in his turbid eyes.

Jessie bit her lips hard, stood still, and grasped the table behind her with her hands timidly.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry. I... I didn't know..."

"You didn't know?" Ken's eyes darkened. "Don't you know that the door is closed. How dare you get in without permission? Haven't your parents taught you the basic family education since you were a child?"

When Jessie was a child, she cared most about her parents and family. If she heard someone say something bad about her parents, she would be furious.

"No, they haven't!" She shouted at Ken, "You know nothing at all! You have no right to judge them! I know how well my mother has treated me. If there was anything wrong with me, just tell me. Don't blame my mother. What's more, I'm not her own child at all. Even if she didn't teach me anything, it's not her fault. You know it better than I do!"

The thought of her mother's life made Jessie's heart ache.

Jessie thought her mother's life would be better after she got married, but her mother died for no reason.

If she had known it earlier, she would not have had to sacrifice herself to marry into the Lan family.

Before Jessie got the chance to say anything, Ken was filled with fury. However, his anger disappeared instantly, and his heart was filled with guilt and self-accusation when he heard from Jessie that "Who was responsible for that? You know it better than me!"

He bent down painfully, picked up the photo album that had fallen on the ground and opened it up.

Jessie was confused. She looked at him dazedly. There was sadness in his eyes which made Jessie confused.

She asked, "Why did you take the photo with my mother? And who is that woman?"

"That woman..." Ken sighed as he walked to the sofa and sat down with the album in his hand. He gently touched the woman in the photo with his wrinkled finger and said, "The woman you mentioned is called Cassie. She is the love of my life. She is also your grandmother."

"Grandma?" Jessie wondered whether the grandma Ken mentioned was Irene's mother or the mother of her biological mother. Jessie was confused.

Ken continued, "Cassie was my fiancée, but then Shawn took her away, and Cassie was forced to marry in to the Xiao family. As for why I took photos with your mother and Cassie... That's because Irene is the child of Cassie and me."

What?

Hearing that, Jessie widened her eyes in disbelief.

Irene was the child of Shawn. How could she become Ken's child now?

Was her mother an illegitimate child of Ken and Cassie?

Ken raised his eyes and waved his hand to let Jessie come and sit next to him. Jessie paused. She walked slowly and sat beside him.

"Jessie, I know there are some things that you won't be able to accept. But that's the truth. I won't deny what I did, and I won't erase the damage that others have done to my life." Ken closed the photo album and said, "If it weren't for the fact that Shawn forced Cassie to marry him, none of these would have happened now."

Ken leaned against the sofa and looked at the painting. The sad memory came back to him.

He sat on the riverside with Cassie. After a while, Ken persuaded her to go home. In the middle of the night, a good woman was sitting on the riverside and drinking. Anyway, it was not a good thing.

"Cassie, can you walk by yourself?"

"Yes, I can."

As soon as Cassie stood up, she felt dizzy. Seeing that she was about to fall down, Ken held her immediately. Cassie suddenly raised her head and looked into Ken's gentle eyes.

The two stared at each other, as if there was an electric current, causing them to tremble.

Ken noticed that something was wrong with them. He immediately looked away and helped her to get in the car.

When they were just off the road, Cassie suddenly said, "Ken, I want to go to your house."

Ken was surprised.

Cassie laughed at herself, "Do you think I'm a loose woman? I have a husband and a child, but I still want to go with another man to his place."

"No, Cassie."

"You don't have to explain. I mean it." Cassie looked up at him and said, "You know I didn't want to marry Shawn at all. You are always the one I love. But what can I do? My parents were afraid that that such a thing would be spread out. They were afraid that you would hate me because of this, and that I would have a bad reputation in the future. But they didn't know at all that Shawn didn't love me at all. He just wanted to have me. He was jealous of you, so he wanted to take me away from you, to show off to you. But, Ken, do you know that I'm not happy at all? I don't know why I'm living like this! I really want to die. Really! I wanted to commit suicide for several times. But I was afraid, after all, the child is innocent."
