Chapter 72
“I.” David was speechless. He didn’t know what to say.

Jason found it was a chance to convince Mr. Smith and said, “Mr. Smith, you’ve misunderstood. We were just discussing with Molly. We’re good friends.”
Molly was too angry to speak.
Janie suddenly said, “Don’t you feel ashamed? Even if both of you said so, it doesn’t mean that what you said is correct.
Jason and Emily didn’t know how to argue.
Of course, they wouldn’t admit it, frowning.
Hope suddenly appeared in Molly’s eyes and she looked at Janie.
Emily objected, “Janie, how could you say that?”
Janie replied with a glance, “Is there a problem? I’m just being honest. Tell me, did you dig or sell a potato? And Jason, what does this $15 have to do with you? If not, don’t act like a generous guy!”
Emily and Jason were speechless again.
Janie’s analysis made them felt like assholes.
Molly looked at Janie with tears in her eyes.
Jackson knew that Janie wouldn’t just walk away.
That was her.
Jackson added after Janie, “I agree. Wasn’t it agreed that we would share the profits as much as we contributed? Janie and I are family, and the Jenkins are family, so we don’t have to split the profits. You guys are different, aren’t you? I s divide the profits according to how much you contribute.”
Janie looked at Molly, “What do you think?”
Janie would never just watch someone be put in an embarrassing position. If she were there, she would always do something.
‘st you
But it also depended on the person involved. If the person didn’t need Janie help, or instead blamed Janie for meddling, it would be better to ignore it in the first place.
Molly hesitated for a moment and said bravely, “I think so.”
Jason and Emily were very dissatisfied with everyone there.
Molly looked at Jason and said, “Jason, maybe we can share the money according to our efforts. You can get $10. I’ll give you the money now.”
Jason was shocked and shouted, “Only $10?”
Molly glanced at Janie and said, “Yes, if you think it’s not enough, I.can give you another $5.”
To end the mass, Molly decided to take less money, unwillingly.
Jason seemed to be humiliated. His face flushed and asked, “Molly, are you insulting me? Fine, I’ll take $10.

Chapter 72
Molly gave the money to Jason immediately. It felt like a heavy stone was removed from her shoulders.
Emily was anxious and thought, ‘What about me? If so, I’ll get no money at all‘
But Jason ignored Emily.
Emily could only ask, “Well, Jason, would you like to be in a team with me?”
Certainly, Jason refused. He thought, ‘I only have $10. It’s not enough at all. Share with Emily? She must be kidding And Emily is such a lazy girl. I should stay away from her‘
Jason looked hesitated and said, “Emily, I really want to help, but you know I only have $10. I’m the poorest 1 can’t help you Maybe you can find someone else. They all have more money than me.”
Emily’s face turned pale. She felt like she was a beggar. With no choice, she looked at Xena
However, after having a discussion with Ryan and Zion, Xena did not give Emily any response. Xena chose to ignore Eanily
Emily was so angry that she could hardly wait to tear Xena apart! She suddenly burst into tears.
Xena felt sorry and wanted to comfort Emily, but was stopped by Zion.
Janie had no interest in Emily’s show and turned away.
“Janie!” Emily gritted her teeth in an anger and said, “You guys have so much money. Can you lend me some?”
Janie looked at her and smiled, “No, I can’t.”
Emily acted as if she was terribly hurt by Janie and said, “I, I know you’ve never liked me.”
Janie felt annoyed and glanced at her, thought, ‘If you know so, then don’t bother me.
Emily suddenly started hiccupping, “I just want to, uh, borrow some money.” She could barely finish a sentence.
Everyone was speechless.
Emily covered her mouth in a hurry. The hiccups stopped. When she continued to say something, she hiccupped again.
Jackson frowned and said impatiently, “Stop that hiccupping. If you can’t talk, then don’t.”
Emily’s face turned red. She was confused, ‘How could this be happening? When I don’t speak, everything is just fine.
To verify it, Emily tried to speak again, but suddenly hiccupped
She hurriedly shut her mouth in a panic, ‘Am I be cursed?‘
Zion, Jason, and all others were shocked and stepped away from Emily.
Even Xena looked at her with disdain.
Zion snorted, “You didn’t get food poisoning again, did you?”
Having heard that, those eating meals with Emily all began to feel worried.
Xena, who had spent the most time with Emily, was naturally the most anxious. She turned to Zion and asked, “Zion, am I also get poisoned?”
Zion comforted her, “It’s okay. She’s just feeling a little sick.”

However, the more Xena thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong. Suddenly, she realized something.
“Janie, could you please check if there’s anything wrong with me?” Xena asked.
Jackson frowned, ‘Doesn’t she know what shame is? What a Jenkinst
Zion stopped Xena, “Xena, are you mad? She knows nothing!” He suddenly started to cough and hiccup too.
Except for Jackson, Janie, and David, everyone was more or less anxious.
Of course, Jackson knew it was Janic.
He laughed and asked aloud, “What’s going on? Are hiccups a new plague?”
David was also shocked and said, “Then let’s go now” He didn’t want to hiccup in that funny way.
Zion was displeased, “What? Plague? Janie.” His words were interrupted by his hiccups.
Janie sneered, “Stay away from me. I don’t want to be infected.”
Zion felt ashamed. For someone who wanted to be decent it was totally a nightmare.
Ryan went to check on him. However, Xena hesitated and chose to stay where she was. Xena thought, ‘What if it really was a plague?‘
But Xena didn’t want others to think she didn’t care about Zion, so she said, “Janie.” She suddenly stopped, not because of hiccups, but for an itch.
She was terrified and shut her mouth, ‘Am I be cursed?‘
Molly and Jason were scared by all this. Neither of them wanted to be like that, so they quickly said goodbye and left.
Ryan had a heavy headache and thought, ‘What the hell!‘
In a glance, Ryan saw Xena stand still there. Fighting his annoyance, he asked, “Xena, what’s wrong?”
Xena was too ashamed to tell him.
“I’m just a bit sick.” Xena replied.
Ryan had to leave Zion aside and turned to check on Xena.
Suddenly, Xena realized something and asked, “Janie, did you do something to us?”
Jackson was angry and shouted, “What the hell are you talking about! Are you crazy?”
Jackson felt guilty, because he knew that it was Janie who did it.
‘Buf
it!‘ J
