When She Stops Playing Nice by Hale Saxon -
Chapter 140
Chapter 140
Lucas was not a good person, but Gina was definitely not very innocent either.
Ethan pondered.
Gina glanced at Ethan. How could she not know what he was thinking?
She explained calmly, “He hopes that through this incident, I will no longer have the possibility of returning to the Miller family so that his daughter can forever be the heiress of the Miller family.”
In addition, Lucas got agitated when her identity was revealed. He knew that once her hidden identity was revealed, the Miller family would surely consider accepting her back. So, he took decisive action, framing her for her father’s murder, Phillip.
“Is that so?” Ethan continued to pick at the matter. “That’s really surprising. It’s such a small matter, yet he has such thoughts. Did you really not do anything to deliberately anger him?”
Neil’s face darkened. He knew that Ethan was deliberately finding fault with her. He said coldly, “Shut up! Who do you think Gina is? A criminal? Are you interrogating her here? Are you saying the victim is guilty?”
At this moment, Gabriel also said, “You clearly know that my father’s health is not good. Are you deliberately trying to anger him?”
Ethan looked up and met Gabriel’s cold gaze for a second, making him tremble.
He felt guilty and speechless. He braced himself and said, “Grandpa, don’t be angry. I’ll shut my mouth!”
Neil snorted in disappointment.
Gina didn’t pay much attention to the little incident just now. She said to Neil, “Grandpa, the medicine to help you recuperate needs to be improved a little. Please pay attention to…”
Gina carefully explained the things that Neil needed to pay attention to.
Neil listened attentively and happily. “Gina, just having you here to see me makes me feel much better! If I could see you at home every day in the future, I’m sure my health would stay good!”
Gina understood what Neil meant. However, she did not know how to answer, so she just smiled.
Ethan had been dozing off while listening to their conversation. But when he heard his grandfather’s words, he instantly jolted awake. It was clear that his grandfather was hinting that he wanted Gina to marry Gabriel.
He would never allow such a terrifying thing to happen.
Ethan gritted his teeth and secretly glared at Gina.
After the visit, Gina planned to leave. Neil asked Gabriel to stay in the room, saying that he had something to say to him. However, Gabriel insisted on sending Gina home, so Gina was waiting for him at the door.
Ethan took advantage of Gabriel’s absence and said to Gina, “Gina, I advise you not to be happy too early. You’re…”
Ethan suddenly paused. He was about to
say that she was a rural girl and not fit to be a part of the Jackson family. However, he realized that Gina was not a rural girl. She was rich and had a status. It was po longer appropriate for him to scold Gina like this.
Ethan corrected himself. “You are not worthy to be part of the Jackson family, and I won’t allow it either.”

Chapter 140
Gina was not provoked by Ethan’s words; instead, she found them rather amusing. She replied calmly, “This statement would be more convincing if it came from one of the elders of the Jackson family rather than from you, Ethan.”
Gina wanted to deliberately anger Ethan and said, “But go ahead and say what you want. Who knows, one day, I might become your elder?”
Ethan’s face flushed with anger. He was so angry that he did not know how to refute her. He could only grunt awkwardly before turning around and leaving.
“How would you become Ethan’s elder?”
Gabriel’s voice sounded. Gina turned around and saw Gabriel approaching. Remembering the words she had used to deliberately provoke Ethan earlier, she suddenly felt a bit embarrassed knowing that Gabriel had heard them.
“I was just kidding. Gina cleared her throat unnaturally.
Gabriel could tell her embarrassment and felt somewhat pleased.
Suddenly, David popped his head out of the car, breaking the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them. “Mr. Jackson, about the situation in Eldoria…”
Realizing what David was going to say, Gabriel quickly interrupted, “What is it? We’ll talk about it later.”
David was stunned. Although he did not react too quickly, he still nodded.
Gina raised her eyebrows. “Is it a secret? Can’t I listen? I can step aside if needed.”
“No!” Gabriel did not want Gina to misunderstand. “It’s not a secret, just something I need to keep confidential for the time being”
The newly discovered high-quality diamond mine in Eldoria was about to be auctioned off. Gabriel remembered that Gina had said that she liked diamonds, so he wanted to buy the diamond mine and give it to Gina as a surprise.
“By the way, Gina, I’ll be going overseas in two days.”
“Okay.” Gina nodded. “What’s up?”
“Let me know if you need me, and I’ll come back as soon as possible,” Gabriel said seriously.
Gina was
a little embarrassed and hummed softly.
The two of them got into the car and drove away.
Ethan stood in th
in the corridor and watched the car drive away. He cursed fiercely, “B**h, we’ll see.”
The more Ethan thought about it, the angrier he became. He took out his phone, removed Olivia’s WhatsApp number from the blacklist, and sent her a voice message, [If you can get rid of Gina, I’ll give you as much money as you want!]
After saying that, Ethan turned around and almost bumped into someone. He thought it was a s**t from the house and felt a bit annoyed. “You…
Halfway through his sentence, he was startled when he saw that the person behind him was his great-uncle, Harry. He was relieved that he hadn’t finished his curse words earlier. He awkwardly said, “Great Uncle, why are you standing behind me silently? I almost bumped into you just now.
Harry smiled faintly. “I’m sorry for scaring you just now, but I think I heard you say something about wanting to harm someone. Is it Gina?”
Ethan felt guilty. He was also afraid that Harry would complain to Gabriel, which would mean trouble for him.

“No, no, you heard wrong!”
Harry smiled, “What are you afraid of? To be honest, I don’t like that girl eitherl
Gina had ruined his plans, and he would always remember that.
He believed that if Gina hadn’t interfered at Prover Hospital, he would have been the head of the Jackson family.
Ethan was a little surprised. “How did she offend you?”
Harry snorted coldly. “It’s not a matter of offending or not offending, I just don’t like her.”
