Jessie could barely wrap her mind around George's words.
"You did nothing wrong, you have committed no crime so you won't cower or hide."
She did nothing wrong? Ofcourse. She won't cower or hide? Whose fault was that? Whose fault was it that she cowered? That she hid? That jerk. And to make matters worse, the bastard kept talking.
"I wouldn't allow you to hide yourself or run away. The only way for this to go away is to face it. Okay?"
Jessie has never felt such anger in her life. Not even when she found out that Patricia was the reason for her demise. Not even when Jason had the gall to question her. But in those to instances that didn't burn as intensely as this and those times she drew a knife and slapped a man. But this time she smiled.
By god she was a damned good actress and she was proud of it. She was livid and outraged but she smiled.
Because she wasn't about to let him win. She would never let him win.
