Chapter 95
Back in the Jenkins family, Xena had never apologized to anyone before.
Except for those who knew the whole story, everyone else at the scene thought Xena was just apologizing for her rudeness during the previous show.
They even thought Xena was making a big deal out of a small matter.
Janie glanced at Xena and said calmly, “If you’re truly sincere in your apology, then of course I won’t hold your past mistakes against you. But I don’t want to forgive you because I’m not a saint who repays evil with good. From now on, let’s just pretend we have nothing to do with each other and live our own lives well.”
Hearing this, Xena’s expression froze.
She thought to herself, ‘Janie is as inconsiderate of others‘ feelings as always!
But Xena still put on a forced smile and said, “Thank you, Janie. I’ll remember what you said.”
Zion blurted out, “Little Xena has already apologized. Why can’t you be a bit more forgiving, Janie? You’re nothing compared to little Xena.”
But right after saying that, Zion regretted it himself.
He tried to act composed and stared at Janie.
Janie didn’t even spare him a glance.
Zion was practically the only fool in the Jenkins family.
Janie thought to herself, ‘Arguing with a fool is the most useless thing.
But her most loyal “retainer” would not turn a blind eye.
All of a sudden, Zion felt his body getting lighter.
He took a closer look and realized he was actually flying! Well, no, he was being lifted up like a little rabbit!
Zion struggled madly like a helpless little rabbit and shouted, “Let me go!”
Noah’s authoritative voice came. “You’ll pay for your rudeness! Apologize!”
Everyone was stunned.
Zion had a very reluctant look on his face and tightly shut his mouth.
Ryan was really troubled by the situation in front of him.
“This bodyguard is even more formidable than I thought.’
Ryan spoke up, “Apologize, Zion. It was indeed your fault.”
Xena also persuaded, “Zion, after all, I was the one who made the mistake first. Janie does have the right not to forgive me.”
Janie gave Xena a disdainful glance and sneered. “Xena, so you never really wanted my forgiveness from the start. Don’t forget that I still hold the secret you don’t want anyone to know. Watch your step.”
Xena was instantly horrified.

She immediately shut her mouth, lowered her head, and didn’t dare to get involved in this matter anymore.
This secret was Xena’s biggest weakness.
Now that this weakness was in Janie’s hands, Xena had no power to resist in front of her.
The fear in Xena’s heart gradually turned into hatred for Janie.
Jason and Emily, who had just reached the mountaintop, were completely confused about the situation.
Noah’s stern voice came again. “Apologize!”
Zion, like a rabbit caught by a hound’s jaws, finally gave in and shouted through gritted teeth, “I’m sorry!”
Noah casually tossed Zion onto the ground.
Zion was like a prey that had just wriggled free from the jaws of a hunting hound, his clothes in disarray and looking completely disheveled and wretched.
Xena quickly rushed forward to check on her brother.
Emily couldn’t help but step forward and ask Janie, “Janie, what on earth happened between you and the Jenkins family?”
This time, without needing Janie to say anything, Xena had already spoken up.
This time, however, it was Xena who took the initiative to speak up. There was a gloomy look on Xena’s face as she said, “Ms. Yates, you’ve already asked far too many questions that you shouldn’t have.”
Emily froze.
It was the first time she’d felt Xena’s tough attitude.
With an awkward smile, Emily said, “Xena, I’m just asking. Don’t mind me.”
Xena didn’t respond to her.
Emily felt terribly embarrassed, but not a single person around paid her any attention.
Zion was extremely displeased.
He thought to himself, ‘Janie has completely looked down on the Jenkins family!‘
But Zion didn’t say another word. He just wore a cold expression.
Emily was still fretting over having no money, and finally, she turned to Molly and said, “Little Molly, could you lend me some money?”
Molly didn’t answer Emily right away either.
After all, Molly herself only had around two dozen dollars.
Everyone else around was richer than her, so why would anyone borrow money from her?
Molly forced a fake smile and said, “I’m sorry, Ms. Yates. I only have two dozen dollars myself, so I really can’t help you.”
Emily nodded, “I got it.”
She said dejectedly, “What am I supposed to do? I don’t have a single penny.”

Janie didn’t even glance at her. She just sat on a rock, fiddling with her cell phone.

Emily’s words were met with nothing but silence, which made her anger flare up more and more. She was gradually losing her mind and starting to dislike everyone indiscriminately.
If her anger could be harnessed as energy, the price of oil across the whole world surely wouldn’t be that high.
