novelWhat Jessica Ended Up With (Part Three)
| ← Ch.1441 | Ch.1443 → |
"What are you going to do?" Jessica felt a sudden rush of panic, as Luke walked towards her. That was typical of Jessica: she only had the nerve to bully someone who was vulnerable. But once they began standing up for themselves, she would cower back almost at once.
"Don't worry, " assured Luke mockingly, "You're too vulgar to be my taste." Suddenly, Luke slapped Jessica across the face. He had worn the glove to prevent his hands from touching her. Luke took it off, and flung it on the ground to humiliate Jessica further.
Hearing what Luke said, one of his men's mouth twitched. Edward would have been furious if he was present and heard Luke accuse Jessica of being vulgar. After all, she was still once Edward's taste.
Kevin took care of the case personally, and made sure Jessica spent the rest of her life in prison. After all, no one wanted such a dangerous person out in the open. Kevin's priority was to protect his loved ones. It was the first time he made use of his job to deal with personal matters. Jessica was indeed a special case. She deserved everything she got in the end, trying to murder Leena. Even though she failed, it was still attempted murder. The police would never go easy on her even if Kevin didn't involve himself.
The next day, Dorothy called Leena. She wanted to apologize to her.
"Mrs. Gu, I'm so sorry for what I did to you, " she apologized. Being told that Jessica was caught, Dorothy began to worry about her video being exposed to the public, and so she confessed everything to Edward. Even though she did get involved once in the murder, fortunately, she didn't hurt anyone. Besides, she was a signed entertainer of FX International Group now. It would do the company no good if her career was ruined. So Edward went easy on her, warnin ake any medicine recently.
"Tom, could you please give me my new prescription? So I could get the medicine I need when I get out of the country, " Leena asked, pretending to be casual. She avoided Tom's eyes in case he would see how much she wanted a child.
"I haven't worked it out yet. But when did you become so mature? Now you're asking about taking medicine?" Tom frequently worked on finding how to improve Leena's health during his spare time. But being a busy person, he kept being distracted by other patients and hadn't been able to finish it yet.
"What are you saying? I'm mature all the time!" Leena pouted, playing with his stethoscope.
"I've always seen you as a little girl. You're like a little sister to me, " Tom teased. He had been told about what Leena had gone through these past few days. It was a relief to see that she wasn't hurt. Otherwise, there was nothing he could do.
"Hmpf! Can't you just take me seriously for once?" Leena frowned, giving him a stern look. Even though she still looked like a young girl, Leena had become pretty mature deep inside after going through a lot of things. Her young appearance just made it easy to conceal everything.
