A Love Trap Chapter 353 Disgusting Thought

Indeed, this place was located on the hillside at the suburban area of J City. The air was chilly and the
view was beautiful.

The only disadvantage was that it was really far from downtown J City.

It took about two hours to get to the downtown area.

"Right.

Well, Angelina, do you remember that you had a jade pendant when you were young? It's dark green,
water-drop-shaped. Mom and Dad gave each of us one when you were three years old."

Angelina was puzzled, "Jade pendant?"

"Yes," said Jeremy.

"I don't know... I think I have some sort of vague recollection but I can't remember that much," Angelina
mused.

"It's okay. Never mind, if you don't remember," Jeremy said.

"Is that jade pendant important?" asked Angelina, with hesitation.

"No, don't worry. It's not very important. I'll give you a new one next time," said Jeremy, trying to dispel
her doubt.

How could the jade pendant not be important?

It was a tailor-made pendant ordered by their parents when Camelia was three years old and Jeremy
six years old.



Their names were engraved on each of the jade pendants. It meant a lot to them.

However, it was good enough for him that he was able to find his sister. If the pendant was lost, it
wasn't an issue.

Angelina felt her heart beating fast.

The only reason was that as much as she tried to rack her brain to find any memory of that pendant,
she couldn't.

She saw the look on Jeremy's face and she could tell it was something meaningful.

How could she not have any memory of the pendant, if it was so important?

However, she just couldn't remember it.

There were only two possibilities.

One was that she had never seen that jade pendant. It had never existed in her life.

The other possibility was because she had been very sick when she was a child, she must have
completely lost her memory of it.

But for reasons she didn't know, she felt that the first one was more likely.

This made her panic.

She had taken a nap in the car before she came to see them, so she wasn't sleepy now. She was very
bothered.

Every now and then, they would chat a bit. After a while, Jeremy noticed that she was feeling down. He
asked, worried, "What's wrong, Angelina? Are you feeling all right?"



Angelina had to snap herself out of her reverie and shook her head at him. "I'm okay."

"If you aren't feeling well, you have to tell me," Jeremy said.

"Okay."

Then the car slowly stopped at the gate of what looked like a residential area. Angelina unbuckled her
seat belt and said, "Jeremy, this is my stop. Drive safely back."

"Okay, you take care too," Jeremy said, smiling back.

She waved goodbye to him and waited until the car left before walking to her house.

She didn't notice that a young boy of about 17 or 18 had followed her.

He watched as Angelina walked away and as the car sped off. He placed his hand on his chin
thoughtfully.

When Angelina took out her key to open the door and was just about to step into the house, she heard
a voice from behind. "Angelina, wait a minute."

Angelina stopped in her tracks and turned—it was Jacob.

Angelina didn't say anything but just walked inside, leaving the door open.

Her father and mother were sitting on the couch watching TV. They heard the noise and thought it was
Jacob. But when they turned to speak to him, they saw Angelina. Their faces turned stiff right away.

Their voices were cold when they spoke. "You're back."

"Yes. I just came back to get something. I'll go back to school tomorrow," replied Angelina.



Since she moved to her school dormitory, she seldom came home. She knew she wasn't welcome in
this family anyway.

"Mom, Dad, I'll go to my room now," said Angelina.

She didn't expect them to respond to her so she headed to her room as soon as she finished speaking.
She was surprised when she suddenly heard a voice from behind.

"Wait a minute."

It was Jacob who called her. He had seen her get out of the limousine.

"What is it?" Angelina asked coldly.

She didn't really like Jacob. He had terrible grades and was constantly making trouble. He never did
any chores and his dirty laundry had to be done by someone else. Food was always ready for him
whenever he got hungry. He was the favorite.

"Whose car was that? I wasn't able to see much. Do you want to explain to us?"

he pressed.

Her hatred for him only grew stronger.

'Why did he have to see that?

I have such bad luck!'

"It's just a friend of mine," Angela replied curtly.



"Just a friend? A friend who's going to drive you back so late? I saw the car he was driving. It was a
Rolls-Royce! That's gotta be worth at least a million," Jacob said snidely.

His mother Hannah couldn't sit still upon hearing his words. She looked at him and asked, "Is that true,
Jacob? A guy drove her back? And his car was expensive?"

A car worth a million! He must be rich!"

"Yes. I saw it with my own two eyes!" Jacob responded.

Hannah's eyes sparkled as if she'd found an opportunity to make money.

She turned to look at Angelina. She now had become her gold mine. "Angelina, who was that guy?
Does he have a crush on you? What's his family like?"

She knew that this adopted daughter of hers was beautiful. Since she started going to junior high
school, a lot of boys wanted to pursue her.

Jacob had completely convinced her. Angelina was very beautiful so it was definitely possible that
she'd attract a rich man.

Angelina frowned, feeling disgusted at the whole family.

This was the reason why she seldom came back home.

"I told you. He was just a friend. If he was so rich, he wouldn't like me," Angelina simply said.

Hannah looked at her displeased and said, "Angelina, why do you speak like that? You are very pretty.
It would be completely understandable if a rich man took a liking in you. Tell me, where does he live?
What kind of family is he from? Is his family rich? You see, you have to develop a relationship with him.
I think he is good for you."



'If Angelina ends up marrying him, that would be great. His car alone is worth over a million. Imagine
how rich his family really is!

If Angelina marries him then our family wouldn't have to worry for the rest of our lives.

Our friends will be so jealous of us!'

She felt excited as she thought of this.

How she wished Angelina could marry that man immediately!
