"I will think about it. Go finish the things I asked you to do first." Jessica lowered her head, holding her head in her hands. She seemed lost in thought. Who was behind all this? She had the same idea as her special assistant did. She didn't believe it was Edward again. If he really wanted to make Lin Group go bankrupt, he wouldn't have let it go last time. But who would have such a big grudge against Lin Group? She was confused.
She touched her belly gently, and her heart sank deeper. Her father had been sent to overseas to have a good rest there. She did this to hide her pregnancy from him. If he found that she was pregnant, he probably would pass out again. But this time, the company was confronted with such a serious problem, she feared that she was unable to handle it by herself. To tell the truth, after the heavy blow last time, the Lin Group was very vulnerable now. If she could not find capital to put into the company, she had no other option but to declare bankruptcy.
But where could she get such large amounts of capital in such a short time? She didn't have very close friends in this trade. She used to think that she had Edward with her. So she was always very arrogant and set her sights high. She ignored all the other rich men who flattered her. Because in her heart, she was the one who was bound to become Edward's wife. But she didn't expect that Daisy would get in the way and shatter all her dreams. This was a deadly blow which surprised her a lot. If she went to Edward and begged him for help, would he help her because they used to be lovers? But when thinking of his cold attitude towards her, she hesitated doing this. Because in front of that man, she already lost her love, she didn't want to beg him to keep her dignity in public.
She stood up and walked to the windows. Looking at the hustle and bustle on the street, she frowned deeply. If Lin Group really declared bankruptcy, she would fall from riches to rags and live a normal life which she hated before, which was impossible for her to accept. This was actually worse than being killed by others for her.
No, she couldn't allow that to happen, otherwise she would lose the battle with Daisy. She must find a way to change the situation. So even if she knew that Edward would not speak to her, she wanted to try. In her social circle, Edward was the richest and most influential person, if he didn't want to help her, no one else would be willing to, Jessica thought.
When the phone rang, Edward was on his way home with Daisy. Apparently, Luke needed to send someone to drive Daisy's car back this time, because Daisy was now in a sound sleep in Edward's car. So when Edward heard the phone, he furrowed his eyebrows. He picked up the phone immediately without checking who was calling. He was so eager to stop the ring tone from waking up Daisy. .
Hello, who is that?" Edward held the steering wheel with one hand while plugging the earphone with another hand. He glanced at Daisy who was asleep and then focused his attention on driving the car.
"Edward, it's me. Do you have time now? I want to see you." Jessica finally made the call. Because she firmly believed that no matter how Edward treated her now, he would not be so ruthless as to watch her die. So no matter what, she decided to at least have a go, she didn't want to see Lin Group destroyed in her hands.
"Oh, it's you? Sorry, it's not very convenient now. And I don't think there is any need for us to meet." Edward's voice became cold instantly. 'Jessica, how dare you call me again? Do you really think that your plan was flawless?' Edward thought.
"Well, when do you have time? I can wait for you. How about tonight? We haven't been to the Sexy World for a long time. Would you like to grab a drink there?" Jessica knew it was difficult to get him to change his mind, but she didn't expect that he would refuse her so harshly. She was heartbroken in an instant and lost her mind. But since she had proposed it, she must see him today, otherwise she really have no other way to get herself out of trouble.
Huh! Jessica you have time to wait, I don't really have time to waste on you. So stop dreaming about it. You should know that once I come at you , that means something bad will happen, Edward sneered. It seemed that Rain had already taken the action. Otherwise Jessica wouldn't be so eager to see him. But didn't she feel it was too late now? Since she feared so much what he'd do, she should have kept his warnings in mind. But she seemed to go the wrong way, she dared to made the same mistakes despite his repeated warnings. If he didn't punished her severely, would she ever take him seriously? She needed to be taught a lesson.
Don't get angry Edward. You know that I rarely ask anything of you. Even if you forget the fact that we have been together for so many years, you should think about our child. Jessica, begged crying. She had lost her dignity in front of this man early on, so she really had nothing to lose now.
Our child? Jessica, how many times do you need me to tell you that your child has nothing to do with me? How many times will it take to get it through your thick skull? Please don't forced the baby on me, okay? Edward sighed. Why did he forget to give his health check report to that conceited woman? That would save him from claiming for himself over and over again. It was because his carelessness that he didn't give Jessica a chance to make a fuss by using a child.
