Obsessed With Her Novel by Master Momo (Chapters 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110)   

Chapter 101

After Chad’s public statement, the search for the Foxy Girl gained more traction.

There were expectations for Foxy Girl to visit the renowned pianist, but netizens were disappointed, as she never showed up.

Nevertheless, a few influencers tried to boost their

popularity by impersonating the Foxy Girl. They ended up making a fool of themselves.

As time passed, the Foxy Girl craze fizzled out as the online attention turned to new gossip.

One afternoon at a park, Daisy popped up beside Jessica and warned, “Bryan is back. You need to watch your back.” Then she left in a rush.

“Bryan,” mumbled Jessica in a calm tone.

Concerned with her nonchalant attitude, Samantha said, Bryan is the admirer and protector of Whitney. If he is back, he will give you trouble. He is more ruthless than Xander. At least Xander will not provoke you as long as you don’t mess with him. Bryan will beat up anyone he sees as an eyesore. Moreover, Bryan is the son of the richest man in Horrington. His achievement as the national youth kickboxing champion further fueled his arrogance. Except for Xander, he dares to pick on anyone. He will beat you even if you’re a girl. So, you shall stick close to me at all times. Bryan will not go too far if he sees me.”

After all, Samantha was a member of the Young family from Jadeborough, so Bryan would have to show her some respect.

“Okay.” Jessica nodded.

Hmm, Bryan is my old nemesis. In the past, he had put me in moments of embarrassment. How am I supposed to get my revenge if I keep avoiding him?

Folding her hands behind her head, Jessica lay down on the lawn. She narrowed her eyes and stared at the clouds floating in the sky.

On a nearby hill, a group of men were observing Jessica. “Boss, the girl wearing a blue shirt is Jessica. She bullied Ms. Whitney,” said one of Bryan’s subordinates.

Bryan was eager to avenge Whitney, but he didn’t approach Jessica as Samantha was beside her.

Looking at his subordinates, he ordered, “You guys keep a close eye on her and inform me once she is alone.”

How dare she bully Whitney! She must be courting death.

Three days later, one of the subordinates saw Samantha get into a car and leave Jessica by herself.

“Boss, the girl is alone now. Come quickly! I’ll send you the location.” He called Bryan immediately.

After ten minutes, a Cadillac slowly pulled over to the side of the road. Bryan and a few of his subordinates came out in a hurry.

“Boss, the girl is in there.” The subordinate who was waiting for them pointed to an alley.

Rage flashed across Bryan’s eyes as he uttered, “Let’s go!” A St. Daniel College student who saw them walk aggressively into the alley scurried to hide in a dark corner. Then she secretly took photos and posted them on the college forum, which kicked off a wave of online discussions.

Whitney scoffed after reading the post. She had just received Bryan’s text message.

Jessica, how dare you go against me! Someone will help me vent my anger and do all the dirty work. I can sit back, relax, and watch the show.

Chapter 102

All of them followed the guide and walked into the alley.

A person was standing in the middle of the alley, smiling at them. It seemed like he had been waiting for them for quite some time.

Everyone was stunned momentarily, with surprise written on their face.

After Jessica took a glance at Bryan, she took off in the opposite direction.

He shouted immediately, “Stop right there!”

However, the people ahead ignored him and continued to walk into the alley.

“It’s too late to escape now,” Bryan warned her as her action clearly showed that she wanted to escape.

Nevertheless, Jessica kept moving without slowing down.

Instantaneously, Bryan and his subordinates swiftly chased after her and stopped her.

As he figured that she was looking for an exit, he cast a glance at his subordinates to block the only entrance.

“Why don’t you try to escape now?” he taunted while his subordinates guffawed.

“This is indeed a good place with nowhere left to run,” stated Jessica with a calm voice.

There was nothing wrong with what she just said. Nonetheless, it sounded as if they were the ones trapped by her.

“You kept bullying Whitney while I was away, right?” Bryan questioned. “It doesn’t matter, even if you deny it. There is only one reason I came looking for you.”

“What is it?” Jessica inquired.

“On behalf of Whitney, I will forgive you if you kneel, slap your face, and apologize to her sincerely. You also have to agree with whatever she says.”

One of his subordinates took out a video camera and prepared to record the scene.

“What if I don’t comply?”

Hearing that, Bryan narrowed his eyes and declared in an icy voice, “Otherwise, don’t think that you can leave here unscathed. I’ve never said that I won’t beat women up.”

In fact, he would not be merciful against those who threatened his goddess, no matter how beautiful the perpetrator was.

“That’s it?” Jessica grinned.

Her reaction only provoked Bryan even more.

“Beat her until she kneels,” he ordered.

Against a woman, his subordinates were more than sufficient.

After receiving the order, two of his subordinates immediately went forward while another subordinate started to set up the video camera to record the scene. The video captured would be Bryan’s present for Whitney.

Moments later, the two young men tried to grab both of her arms on each side to get her under control in the shortest time.

The instant one of them tried to grab her arm, a pair of slender hands forced him to stop before he could continue. While he was stunned, Jessica briskly threw him against the other young man. Immediately afterward, both of them. collapsed to the floor.

“Ouch!”

Before they could respond, a wooden crate appeared above their heads.

Bang! The next moment, the wooden crate smashed into their bodies, and blood was gushing out of them. Instantly, their wailing could be heard.

Soon, they were unconscious.

In the blink of an eye, the two young men were knocked out. Seeing that, Bryan and his subordinates were stunned.

Chapter 103

With a darkened expression, Bryan scowled, “Useless.”

Jessica smirked at him and his remaining subordinates and said, “Useless indeed.”

In an instant, they were infuriated.

Next, the subordinates rushed toward Jessica without Bryan ordering them.

Although they had braced themselves, they were no match for her with their capabilities.

After they traded blows, both of them collapsed on the floor. They were wailing while holding onto their legs or stomachs.

Bryan was speechless as he saw four of his subordinates fall one by one.

Furious, he kicked the subordinate who was lying beside him away and stepped forward. “I’ve heard the news that you are quite capable. But don’t think that you can win against me just because you won against my subordinates.” He squinted his eyes.

Then he clenched his fists, stepping toward her slowly.

Suddenly, he threw a punch ferociously at her.

Before the punch could land, a pair of hands blocked his fist and stopped him in his tracks.

No matter how much he struggled, he couldn’t escape.

Immediately afterward, his hand started to hurt.

In the meantime, she kept increasing her grip strength as if she wanted to crush his hand.

Bryan frowned, and he tried to kick Jessica’s lower body.

With a quick dodge, she increased her grip strength even more.

Crack! The sound of bone being dislocated could be heard.

“Argh!” He screamed in agony when his right arm was dislocated.

“You little piece of shit!” Bryan yelled, infuriated. In a flash, he took out a sharp knife with a merciless look on his face.

“Time to die.”

Meanwhile, Jessica evaded the assault with grace and kicked the knife away.

The next moment, Bryan became her punchbag as she jabbed him ruthlessly without giving him a chance to counterattack.

With a direct punch to the face, she hit his tooth. Then, his mouth filled with blood.

She looked down at him and said, “Youth champion? What a joke.”

The humiliation Bryan felt was immense.

He couldn’t comprehend why he lost to her.

As if the provocation was not enough, Jessica queried while smiling, “You’re not convinced, aren’t you?”

Bryan spat out the blood in his mouth and glared fiercely at her.

“Go back and ask your father how you got your trophy.”

“What do you mean?” He raised his voice.

Looking at him pitifully, Jessica muttered, “Useless piece of shit.” She left after saying those words.

In the meantime, Bryan couldn’t accept the fact that she was leaving unscathed. When he recalled what she said earlier, a hint of murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

Noticing the brick beside him, he picked it up and threw it against Jessica.

Sensing a murderous intent behind her, she instinctively dodged aside. The brick barely missed her head and fell onto the floor.

She only managed to dodge it instinctively due to her accumulated experience over the past years.

While averting her gaze from the brick to Bryan, a dark look crept into her eyes.

With each step she took, the aura she emanated became colder and crueler.

Chapter 104

Bryan was terrified. He asked, “W-What do you want?” He kept stepping backward as Jessica approached him. He was eventually cornered by her.

“My dad is Jake Harwood. He will not forgive you or the Larson family if you dare lay a finger on me!”

Bryan purposely mentioned his dad to try and scare Jessica away.

However, she wasn’t threatened by him.

“I will make you regret it if you hurt me now. My family will make you pay for it, and the Larson family will not be able to save you! If you don’t believe me, you can try!” Bryan shouted at Jessica to make himself look confident. He also wished that he could successfully frighten her.

However, Jessica didn’t respond to him. She merely stared at him coldly.

“You should let me go now!”

Bam! Jessica hit Bryan in his abdomen. It was so painful that he bent his body.

“Bitch!” Bryan cursed loudly.

She then pulled his hair backward and slapped his face while staring at him smilingly.

Bryan was terrified when he saw Jessica lift her hand. Before she punched him in the face, he shouted, “I’m sorry!”

Her fist stopped in front of his nose.

“I apologize!”

One of Bryan’s subordinates wanted to rescue him.

However, he was trembling when he tried to get up from the ground. He was shocked upon hearing Bryan begging Jessica to let him go.

Another subordinate immediately stopped walking when he noticed Jessica’s stare.

The lady in front of them was no longer the vulnerable girl. She seemed to be the God of Death with her stony stare and ruthlessness.

Meanwhile, at a junction of an alley, a group of elites in suits headed toward Jessica’s location.

“Mr. Young, this is the last undeveloped area in this old town. Its geographical location is excellent. It is suitable to be developed for commercial or residential use,” the district mayor said.

The man who walked in front of the group didn’t say a word upon hearing that. He merely glanced at those old wooden houses.

A young lady behind him heard some sound and said, “It seems like someone is calling for help over there.”

All of them immediately turned their attention to the sound. After listening to it carefully, they heard someone nearby asking for help.

That area was full of dilapidated houses. We had been preparing to auction off those houses and develop that area. Most people had already moved out of that area, and few would be left around.

Charles walked in the direction where the sound came from, and the rest followed him behind.

The sound became clearer as they got closer.

They increased their pace and after turning around the corner, they saw a few ruffians lying on the ground. The girl standing in the corner caught their sight.

Jessica turned around slowly and stared at them upon hearing footsteps.

A gust of wind passed through the alley. The bloodstain dripped from that girl’s eyebrow across her beautiful face. She stared at the group of people coldly with her red eyes. That bloodstain on her beautiful face and fair skin had a considerable visual impact.

Thump! Thump!

Charles’ heart was racing at that moment.

Chapter 105

“Stop!” a girl in a white shirt shouted. “He is going to die if you keep on hitting him.”

Jessica ignored the group of people who stood behind her. She stared at Bryan, whose face was covered in blood, and spoke with a hoarse voice, “I welcome you to take revenge on the Larson family.”

She then let go of her grip and dropped Byran to the ground.

The group of elites behind her was frightened to see her casual and domineering attitude.

They didn’t expect that vulnerable lady to be so violent.

“You are not allowed to leave.” The girl in the white shirt stopped Jessica from leaving.

Jessica ignored her and continued walking toward her.

That lady panicked upon seeing that. All the men behind her stepped backward subconsciously, except Charles. Charles didn’t move a bit.

“What are you trying to do? I’m warning you that our society is governed by laws!”

Jessica bent down and picked up the recorder from the ground.

All of them let out a sigh of relief after knowing that they had mistaken her.

They saw Jessica throw the recorder to the ground and smash it before kicking it into the drain.

Thereafter, Jessica glanced at the group and said, “You all should keep this a secret, or else…”

She gave them an evil smile and made a hand gesture across her neck.

While the group of people was still in shock, Jessica turned around and left.

“She is so arrogant!” One of the directors, Mr. William, was mad after seeing Jessica’s attitude. He couldn’t tolerate malefactors and said, “Call the police to arrest that girl! Let’s teach her a lesson!”

Charles raised his hand to stop him. “No need to do that. I will talk to her later.”

Everyone was stunned to hear that.

It seemed like Charles knew Jessica. The group of people finally understood the reason why Jessica was arrogant. Upon realizing that, Mr. William immediately said, ” Nowadays, young girls have quite a personality. It seems like these men have done something terrible to that girl earlier. They should blame themselves for their outcome. Wallace, please arrange for someone to interrogate them to see what they did to that girl!”

The rest of the group rolled their eyes at him.

Mr. William, don’t you feel guilty after saying that?

A few security guards went to their location and brought those ruffians away. They sent Bryan straight to the hospital as he was badly injured.

After Jessica left the housing area, she went to a

convenience store. The store worker was shocked upon seeing the bloodstains on her face and clothes.

“Are you all right?”

Jessica shook her head. She then took a packet of wet tissue, wiped off the bloodstains, and made payment. Right then, her phone rang.

“Jess, are you all right?” The call was from Samantha. “I’m fine.”

Samantha felt relieved upon hearing that. “I read a post on our school portal. It stated that Bryan and his gang were looking for someone. I was worried that they would go after you. Since you are fine, I guess they were looking for someone else, not you.”

Jessica listened to her patiently as she was touched to receive Samantha’s call.

Jessica thought, & she is sincere, right?

“Where are you now? Do you want to go for a drink?”

Samantha asked.

She wanted to go out and chill since Charles would be working overtime and going home late that day.

“Nah.”

Meanwhile, Whitney was waiting for Bryan’s text at the Larson residence. However, she didn’t receive any news. Instead, she saw Jessica returning home.

“H-How did you come home?” she asked in disbelief upon seeing Jessica looking fine at that time.

Chapter 106

Jessica raised her eyebrow and stared at Whitney coldly.” Can’t I come home?”

Whitney was taken aback. When she saw Willow enter the living room, she immediately changed her expression and said aggrievedly, “Jess, please don’t be mad at me. That’s not what I meant.”

Jessica gave an icy stare. She then moved closer to her and spoke with an emotionless voice. “Try to smell me.” Whitney was shocked. She almost yelled at Jessica. Crazy!

Whitney took a whiff and she could detect a slight scent of blood.

Jessica smiled when she saw Whitney frowning. She then said calmly, “I got this scent from that person.”

Whitney’s eyes widened upon hearing that.

She knew that was the scent of blood.

If that scent of blood belongs to Bryan, does it mean…

Jessica chuckled upon seeing Whitney’s shocked face. She then swung her bag and left. Whitney felt angry upon seeing her arrogant attitude.

She clenched her fists and tried to hold herself back from fighting with Jessica.

Jessica, I will make you suffer one day!

Whitney was mad to the extent that she was trembling. A few maids shook their heads upon seeing that.

At midnight, a Rolls-Royce arrived at a mansion located at Horrington Island.

Derek immediately walked toward the car, opened the car door, and stood at the side politely.

Charles got out of the car and handed his bag to Derek. While entering the mansion, he asked, “Is Sam asleep?”

Derek answered honestly, “Ms. Young is still awake.”

Charles went upstairs and knocked on one of the doors.

“Come in,” Samantha said.

Charles then opened the door. There was a huge round bed in the middle of Samantha’s room, and there were countless plush toys in her room.

Samantha was lying on her bed and focusing intently on playing her game. She didn’t notice Charles was approaching her.

“You all should focus on playing the game! Damn it! You are so lousy! I’m going to lose this game. Felicia, you should quickly refuel your blood reserves! Do it now!” Samantha shouted excitedly.

The atmosphere turned strange suddenly.

She then slowly turned around. Upon seeing Charles standing behind her, she was shocked and she dropped her phone to the ground.

“U-Uncle Charles, you are home?” Samantha stuttered while trying to hide her phone under the blanket.

Damn it! He said he would stay at the apartment in town tonight! How can he come home without telling me in advance? He is cheating! How can he do that?

Charles sat on the sofa with his legs crossed while staring at her.

Samantha stood in front of him obediently. She seemed ready to be lectured by Charles.

“Uncle Charles, I’m sorry. I promise that I will never do it again,” she said apologetically.

“This is the last time.”

Samantha felt happy to hear that, and she kept nodding her head. “Yes! Yes!”

Strangely, Uncle Charles seems easy to talk to today. Did something good happen to him?

“By the way, what’s the name of your classmate?” Charles asked nonchalantly.

“She is Jessica,” Samantha replied.

After saying that, she noticed something was strange. She narrowed her eyes and had her guard up. “Uncle Charles, what do you intend to do?”

“Bring her home tomorrow,” Charles said in a stern voice.

Chapter 107

Wow! He is so straightforward! He wants me to bring her home!

Samantha was shocked, and her eyes widened. She then said, “Uncle Charles, I don’t intend to hurt you. But I seriously think you and Jess are not compatible since you are so old, while she is still so…”

She didn’t dare to say the word “young” upon being stared at by Charles.

Uncle Charles is so shameless! I won’t help him get Jess.

Samantha decided to pretend to cooperate with Charles. She then bit her lips and nodded helplessly. “All right, I will invite her tomorrow. However, I can’t promise whether or not she will be coming.”

She said that in advance so that Charles wouldn’t blame her the next day.

However, Charles had seen through her.

He coughed as he explained, “I’m looking for her because of some matters.”

“Some matters?”

Samantha thought: You two don’t even know each other. Why will there be any matters between you two? Such a liar!

She replied obediently, “All right, noted.”

“If you dare to fool me, I will send you back to Dellmoor tomorrow,” Charles spoke in a deep voice.

Samantha’s eyes widened upon hearing that. Tyrant! He is a tyrant!

Although she was cursing at him inwardly, she pretended to be obedient in front of him and nodded.

After Charles left her room, Samantha immediately looked for her phone under the blanket and called Jessica.

“Jess, my uncle would like to meet you tomorrow,” Samantha said sadly.

Jessica wasn’t surprised by that.

She recalled that she seemed to have met a man who looked like Charles in the alley.

Although Jessica met Charles in the car a few days ago, she paid little attention to him.

She believed that the man who stood in front of the group of people in the alley should be Samantha’s uncle.

“Send me the time and address.”

Jessica could guess the reason why Charles wanted to meet her.

She believed that he would stop her from meeting Samantha after he saw her violent side.

“It’s tomorrow, at my uncle’s house.”

At his house? Shouldn’t we talk about this matter outside instead?

The next day, all the students of St. Daniel College were

surprised to see Jessica looking fine.

“Didn’t someone say Bryan went to teach her a lesson on

behalf of Whitney?”

“What’s going on? Didn’t Bryan go? What did he do yesterday?”

“I thought Bryan would teach Jessica a lesson on behalf of Whitney. However, it seems like he didn’t do that.”

“Haha! Men always sweet talk!”

“Stop saying that! Whitney is here!”

Whitney felt angry when she walked along the corridor, as she could tell people were mocking her.

She had been trying to contact Bryan since the day before. However, she couldn’t get in touch with him.

She started wondering whether Bryan had helped her teach Jessica a lesson.

Whitney would never believe that Bryan, the national youth kickboxing champion, would be beaten up by Jessica.

In the afternoon, Laura was crying at a private hospital upon seeing Bryan bandaged like a mummy.

“Bryan, who beat you up? Who was that ruthless ruffian?” she cried badly.

Right when Bryan wanted to tell her, someone knocked on his door.

His eyes lit up upon seeing the lady who came to visit him. “Whitney,” Bryan said excitedly. However, he immediately closed his mouth upon realizing that he had lost a front tooth.

Chapter 108

After entering the room, Whitney greeted Laura politely instead of checking on Bryan’s condition. “Hi, Mrs.

Harwood.”

“You are here,” Laura replied emotionlessly.

Whitney felt miserable, as she could tell Laura was acting cold toward her.

Laura was friendly when they met two months ago. However, her attitude had changed.

Is this the different treatment for a biological child and a non-biological child?

“Yes, I’m here to visit Bryan,” Whitney said. She walked

toward Bryan and looked at him worriedly.

Bryan melted under her gaze and felt less pain at that moment.

“Bryan, l-I didn’t expect her to treat you this way.” Whitney stared at him with her teary eyes.

“Who is she? Who beat up my son?” Laura yelled.

Whitney replied apologetically, “Laura, I’m here to apologize to you and Bryan on behalf of my sister. She shouldn’t have treated Bryan this way. You can punish me if you want to. I’m willing to take it on behalf of her.”

Upon seeing Laura’s angry face, Bryan quickly said, “Mom, Whitney is not involved in this matter. She is a victim too.” Laura glanced at Whitney and then turned to Bryan. “Tell me! Did the daughter of the Larson family beat you up?” Bryant felt too embarrassed to tell his mother the truth.

He was a man and also the national youth kickboxing champion. He was ashamed of himself for being beaten up by a little girl.

Initially, he didn’t intend to tell her the truth. He wanted to find an excuse for his injuries.

However, since Whitney exposed the truth, he couldn’t deny it.

Moreover, he was worried that Whitney would think he lied to her.

“Tell me now!” Laura yelled impatiently.

“Yes, it was her.”

Whitney had mixed feelings upon hearing Bryan’s reply. She felt happy to know that Jessica messed with the Harwood family. However, she also realized that Jessica was more powerful and capable than she thought.

Laura was furious, and her eyes turned red.

Whitney walked toward her and apologized, “Laura, I’m sorry about this. It’s my fault for not keeping an eye on my sister and letting her cause so much trouble.”

Initially, Laura glared at her fiercely. However, she sighed upon seeing Whitney’s red eyes and her apologetic attitude.

Whitney used to be an arrogant person. However, she apologized on behalf of Jessica. Upon seeing that, Laura felt that the Larson family had lost a gem.

Laura said gently, “It’s not your fault. You shouldn’t apologize for this matter. She should apologize to us instead!”

She then exited the room and gave Jake a call.

“Darling, Bryan was beaten up by the girl that was adopted by the Larson family recently. I don’t care how you do it, but you must teach that girl a lesson! You should come over now. You have no idea how badly injured Bryan is right now!”

Whitney, who was chatting with Bryan, had been paying attention to Laura’s conversation.

Jessica, I doubt you can handle this!

Meanwhile, Samantha and Jessica were riding on Charles’

car and heading to Horington Island.

“Derek, is Uncle Charles at home?”

“Mr. Young is still in the office. He will be heading home soon.”

Chapter 109

Their car slowly entered the heavily guarded Horington Island.

Horington Island was an island in the middle of a lake. It belonged to the Young family.

The outer area of Horington Island was a well-known tourist attraction. People were allowed to visit there and take photos. However, no one was allowed to enter the center of Horington Island.

Being the eldest daughter of the Larson family, Jessica was supposed to have the chance to attend the banquet organized by the Young family.

However, she missed that chance as Whitney tore her gown into pieces.

Since then, she no longer had the opportunity to visit the grandest mansion in Horington.

It was Jessica’s first visit to that place.

After entering Horington Island, one could quickly feel how its temperature was slightly lower than the city.

Seventy percent of Horington Island was covered with forest. There was a fresh floral scent in the whole area instead of vehicle exhaust emissions.

Samantha and Jessica got out of the car and walked through the forest.

Samantha asked, “What do you think about this place?” “It’s very nice here.”

“Yes, I feel that too. But the downside is that there are a lot of mosquitoes during summer. If you like this place, you can move here to stay with me. You don’t have to care

about my uncle, he won’t comment much.”

That man wants to pursue Jessica. I’m pretty sure he won’t be against this!

Jessica merely smiled without replying.

I guess I don’t have the chance to do that. We might not be friends anymore after today. The Young family is the most influential family in Dellmoor. They can easily get rid of me.

A maid walked toward them hurriedly. “Ms. Young, Mr. Young is home.”

Upon hearing that, Samantha and Jessica walked back to the mansion.

In the living room, Charles was sitting on the sofa while reading a magazine. He put down the magazine upon hearing the approaching footsteps. He then stared at Jessica.

“Sam, you should assist Derek in the back garden.”

Samantha could tell that Charles purposely asked her to leave the living room.

However, she refused to do so. “I don’t know how to assist him. You should ask the maids to do it.”

Samantha didn’t want to leave, as she wanted to keep an eye on Charles.

She wanted to help Jessica out should Charles have any bad intentions toward Jessica.

She felt it was too dangerous to leave her alone with Charles.

“Are you sure you are not going?” Charles stared at Samantha coldly.

“I-I will go now.” Samantha pursed her lips and left unwillingly.

Only Charles and Jessica were left in the living room.

He pointed at the sofa and said, “Please sit.”

Jessica sat down elegantly, without fear.

Charles poured each of them a cup of tea.

“Ms. Larson, I invited you over today as I have something to discuss with you.” Charles went straight to the point.

“You can call me Jessica.”

She hated people calling her “Ms. Larson”.

Charles immediately changed the way he addressed her. Jessica, since you are Samantha’s close friend, what do you think of her?”

“She is very nice. I know what you intend to say. Please don’t worry. I will stay away from her starting today, and I promise I won’t be a bad influence on her. You could have called me to talk about this. It is unnecessary to arrange a face-to-face meeting,” Jessica replied.

Charles was stunned upon hearing that. He then said, smiling, “I believe you have misunderstood me. I don’t intend to ask you to stay away from Samantha. I actually wish you could teach her more.”

“What?!”

Jessica was shocked upon hearing that.

Has he lost his mind?

Chapter 110

He’s witnessed my violent side, yet he did not ask me to stay away from Samantha. Instead, he wants me to teach her? Unbelievable.

Charles seemed to sense Jessica’s doubts. “Sometimes, we have to look at a person carefully as our eyes often deceive us. Sam might seem like a laid-back person, but deep down, she’s actually quite sensitive. That’s why she doesn’t have many friends. The fact that she’s able to have heart-to-heart talks with you shows that you’re not a terrible person. Sam hates studying but likes playing with dark elements. I really hope you can help to break this habit of hers. It’s true that the Young family’s reputation does not depend on her studies, neither do they need her to excel in everything for them to be able to let her live her life comfortably. However, this sort of wealth can disappear at any time. I’m sure you can imagine how Samantha’s life would be if the Young family’s business failed one day. Wealth and power can be taken away; only knowledge belongs to you forever. My hope is that she’ll be able to sustain herself no matter what happens in the future. This is also the reason I called you here.”

Jessica was stunned by Charles’ speech.

I can’t believe that’s his reason all along. Then again, he’s not wrong. The world changes so fast that nobody knows what could happen next. It’s wise of him to prepare for the future. Knowledge is indeed wealth.

“Well, if you agree to it, then you shall have the honor of naming your price,” Charles said in an arrogant but generous manner.

“I accept the offer. As for the pay, there’s no need for it,” Jessica replied.

As long as Samantha did not betray her and was willing to

be her friend, she did not want anything in return.

However, if their friendship ended, then she would personally collect the payment.

After that, Charles handed her a black magnetic card. “This is Horington Island’s access card. You may come over whenever you wish,” he explained.

A look of surprise flashed across Jessica’s face as she took the card.

Charles’ eyes glinted, and he stretched out his slender fingers.

Looking at the hand in front of her, Jessica stretched hers out as well, and they shook hands.

Charles could feel the softness of her hand. It left a tingling sensation on his arm that made its way into his heart.

“I look forward to working with you,” Charles said. “Likewise,” Jessica replied and quickly retracted her hand. Charles stared at his empty palm, a look of disappointment and reluctance written all over his face.

Suddenly, Jessica’s phone rang. She retrieved her phone and saw that the call was from James. She immediately got to her feet, walked toward the window, and answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, James’ yelling could be heard from the other end of the line. It was so loud that even Charles, who was sitting not far away, could hear it.

“Jessica, I heard that you beat up Jake’s son, Bryan. Is that true?” James questioned.

“Yes,” Jessica replied calmly.

James’ blood boiled with rage upon hearing Jessica’s answer. Can you stop causing trouble? How did you even beat him up that badly? I don’t care where you are right now; you’d better get back here this instant!”

“Okay,” Jessica responded indifferently, showing no fear of his anger.

She ended the call and turned around.

“Do you need my help?” Charles had a vague idea of what was going on.

“It’s okay. I can handle this,” replied Jessica.

If I can’t handle such a simple matter, how am I going to destroy Larson Group?

“Feel free to contact me if you have any problems. This is

my phone number.” Charles handed her a black business card embossed in gold.
