CEO's Reborn Wife

"How would I know about things the police keep secret?" Joseph Shaw retorted.

"Daddy knows, Mother knows, Grandpa and Grandma know, even Brother knows—they all know, but they kept it from just me, they wouldn’t tell me. They keep saying I’m still their daughter, but in their hearts, they’ve abandoned me!" Jillian Carter was extremely aggrieved, crying uncontrollably.

Joseph Shaw was initially a bit surprised, but after the surprise, he found it normal.

"Because of Jane Sampson’s kidnapping, Grandma was so worried that she was hospitalized. Later, the police announced several times about the assassination of Jane Sampson. I guess it was also to reassure Grandpa and Grandma, so the police revealed that Jane Sampson was still alive to them. It makes sense that Dad, Mom, and Big Brother know too," Joseph thought.

"They chose not to tell you because you’re reckless and immature. They’re afraid you’d accidentally let it slip. No one can bear that risk."

Joseph patiently explained to Jillian Carter: "Before the police closed the case, if the news that Jane Sampson was alive got out, do you know what it would mean? This risk is too big; it involves the lives of many people and the success or failure of the case. They’re not telling you for the right reasons."

Joseph spoke as he gently patted Jillian Carter’s back, soothing her, also as a kind of comfort.

Jane Sampson being rescued probably owed much to the police’s undercover work, so Joseph speculated that the police announced Jane’s death to protect their undercover agents.

"Why doesn’t she just die? How does she have such good fortune to survive this! Why won’t Jane Sampson just die! She deserves to die! She deserves to die!"

Jillian Carter screamed irrationally, pounding hard on the steering wheel, "I wish she were dead! It would be better if she were dead! If she were dead, no one would compete with me! She deserves to die! She deserves to die! How can she still be alive!"

"Jillian Carter!" Joseph Shaw directly reached out to cover Jillian Carter’s mouth, "There are still people outside; do you want the whole world to know you’re cursing Jane Sampson to die?"

"Mmm..." Jillian Carter shook her head, trying to shake off Joseph’s hand, but Joseph used a lot of force to cover her mouth.

In a fit of anger, Jillian Carter directly bit Joseph Shaw’s hand hard, biting with rage until she broke his skin and tasted blood, then suddenly let go and pushed Joseph out forcefully.

"Get out! You too, get out! You’re on her side too!" Jillian Carter cried out in despair.

"Have you had enough of this tantrum?" Joseph Shaw yelled, suppressing his voice in anger, "Do you know how many of your grandpa’s former subordinates are in the guard team? You’re here cursing Jane Sampson to die, and if this reaches your grandpa’s ears, what, do you want the Carter Family to sever ties with you?"

Joseph released Jillian Carter, "Think it over carefully. If you decide you want the Carter Family to cut ties with you, then go ahead, shout, curse, I won’t stop you. But don’t blame the Carter Family for abandoning you in the future. Jillian Carter, I’m telling you, no parent, no elder can endure their beloved child being cursed like this! Do you understand?"

Moreover, it’s Jane Sampson who just went through a disaster; the Carter Family is even more unwilling to let Jane suffer any harm, not even verbal curses would be allowed.
