Chapter 16
After Jessica left, Julianna was very angry, and her i
heart way
was beating quickly.
“What does she mean? Is she trying to say that I’m treating her badly?”
“Mother, don’t blame Jessica. It’s just her anger talking. She will be fine once she cools down.
Julianna was comforted by her kind daughter. She noticed that she tried to hide her despondency, and immediately said, “Don’t worry, Mother will give you money. You can buy whatever you like too.”
On the other hand, Jessica left the villa, and the chauffeur sent her to the city.
She stood between the tall buildings, looked up, and admired the blue sky looking down on the tall giant–like buildings. The humans seemed extremely small and insignificant like ants on the ground in comparison.
She had not seen the outside world in a long time. The Larsons members kidnapped her, and gave her to a violent old pervert in exchange for power to expand the Larson Group.
They used her in exchange for money and to buy Whitney property and hold a grand wedding. They lived happily and proudly.
However, she had been living in purgatory all day and night,
She enjoyed the feeling of the sun’s warmth on her body, and squinted her eyes under the sun.
Thump
A young boy barged into her, and the ice–cream in his hands fell on her shirt. The boy fell to the ground and started bawling.
The boy’s mother rushed over and picked him up. Seeing that his arm was hurt, her eyes were filled with anger.
“What’s wrong with you? Can’t you see where you’re going! Can’t you be more careful? You’ve injured my child.”
Jessica lowered her head and looked at the ice–cream stain on her shirt. She then looked at the son and his mother who could not differentiate right from wrong. She smirked.
She bent down, picked up the remaining part of the ice–cream, and walked towards the mother.
“What are you trying to do?” The mother stared at her fiercely as if she was trying to intimidate her by acting tough.
Jessica did not reply, and immediately pressed the remaining ice–cream onto her dress,
“Aaah!” the boy’s mother screamed in horror.
The piercing scream drew the attention of the passersby, who hurried over to see what was happening. Seeing how both of their clothes were stained with ice–cream and were accompanied by a crying child, they could roughly guess what had happened.
“What’s the matter with you? Not only did you push my child and injure him, you also dirtied my clothes. You’d better compensate me for my dress. This dress is very expensive, the child’s mother said hysterically.
Jessica pointed to a surveillance camera nearby. There is evidence there. Are you sure you are right?”
The child’s mother’s eyes wavered, and she did not dare to speak further.
The crowd understood what was happening. This was a classic case of the pot calling the kettle black.
I feel sorry for your child”
After saying this, Jessica turned and left
The passers–by were pointing and talking about the child’s mother’s behavior. She angrily slapped her son and carried him away
Nearby, a group of elites dressed in suits walked out of the mall. The man in front was tall and slender with handsome features. However, his facial expression was solemn. His deep eyes looked at the gathered crowd, and he saw a familiar figure. He wanted to take a closer look, but the person
was gone.
“Mr. Young” Gordon, the secretary, reminded.
Charles came to his sen
senses and got into the car
The Rolls–Royce drove off slowly.
