I Only Want You novel Chapter 828

John sat on the outermost sofa in the living room with his eyebrows knitted and his lips slightly pursed. He always looked dignified. At this time, he did not speak and looked so serious, which gave others an oppressive feeling.

"John..." Albert swallowed and said with embarrassment, "As for this matter... Well, we are so sorry and we can apologize to Xavier. As long as you could speak for us and persuade Xavier... Please do me a favor for the sake that we've known each other for many years."

Before John could say something, Albert added, "This time, John... as long as you help us, and as long as Zena won't be imprisoned, I will be deeply grateful to you for yoi

"That's right." Jodie said at this time, "John, I beg you. Zena is insensible and has caused trouble for you. This is our fault, because we didn't teach her well, but she has realized her mistake sincerely and she regrets it."

John didn't say a word and glanced at Zena, who was looking down.

Seeing this, Jodie whispered something in

Zena's ear and then pulled Zena forcefully. Zena was in a daze, but Jodie pushed her with great strength. She staggered and wanted to stabilize herself, but Jodie pressed her down with both hands and then she knelt on the ground.

Zena's mind turned blank, and her pale face suddenly flushed.

She felt that she had lost all her face and wanted to stand up. However, Jodie pressed her shoulders with force. She struggled, but in the end, she could only give up.

Even if she struggled to stand up, she had knelt down. That day, she couldn't be more ashamed. Compared to her future... Haha! As long as she could get out of here safely and the people in the Lu family could no longer trouble her, she might as well kneel. Anyway, she had disgraced herself, hadn't she?

Albert couldn't bear to see this, but he had to bear it. However, his face darkened a little.

"Say something to your uncle!" Jodie was a little anxious and reminded Zena in a low voice.

Zena took a deep breath, lowered her head slightly and didn't look at the people in the room. After a long while, she whispered, "Uncle, I'm so sorry."

John squinted at Zena, who was kneeling on the ground. After a few seconds, he looked away and looked down at the floor.

"John?" Albert tried to say, "Look, Zena knows that she is wrong. Just... speak for us. Xavier and James refuse to forgive us. I hope you can help us..."

John raised his head to take a look at Albert, who was very disturbed, and then glanced at Zena. In the end, he looked at Xavier.

"What should I say?" John said, "Should I ask Xavier to let her go?"

"John, I seldom ask you for help. Today, I really have no other choice."

"Albert." John said, "If I knew that you asked me to come here because of this, I probably wouldn't have come here."

At that time, Albert spoke very anxiously on the phone and didn't tell him what had happened, but he came here. Lydia stayed at home to accompany Elizabeth, so he came alone.

James didn't say a word. He sat on the sofa firmly.

However, Xavier felt nervous for the first time since he entered the house. He... was afraid that John would really agree to Albert's request.

If John advised him to let forgive Zena, he definitely wouldn't agree. But John had raised him for so many years, and he didn't want to go against him.

John put his hands on the arms of the sofa. He didn't feel that it was improper to let Albert and Jodie stand there. He said blandly, "We are parents. No matter how great our achievements are, our love for our children is the same. You love your daughter. Although she has made mistakes, you try your best to cover for her, and I can understand. So, I hope you can also understand me."

Albert opened his eyes wide. He knew what John meant, but he couldn't believe it, "I don't understand. John, what exactly do you want to say?"

"Just now, you said that Zena was young at that time, so it was reasonable for her to make a mistake. Albert, I don't think that you're a person who can't distinguish right from wrong. Nine years ago, Zena was not a child, right? She was an adult at that time. Of course, I have nothing to say if you insisted on saying that. But now, Xavier is an adult who can tell right from wrong. I must listen to his opinion on what he wants to do. Besides, his request is reasonable, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Jodie could accept it. She was extremely emotional, "John, how can you say that? When James wanted to aim at us before, you didn't care about it. We were in the wrong, so we didn't argue with you. But it has been so many years since Xavier was hurt. He is all right now, isn't he? Why can't you let us go?"

Xavier frowned and clenched his hands very tightly.

Was he wrong? Shouldn't he be so heartless? Shouldn't he seek justice for himself?

John narrowed his eyes, and his face darkened, "So? Only your daughter is important and my son deserves to be hurt by her? Should Xavier be tricked by your daughter and bear those pain?"
