Obsessed With Her Novel by Master Momo (Chapters 451, 452, 453, 454, 455, 456, 457, 458, 459, 460)

Chapter 451

“Enough!”

Sebastian interrupted her shoddy acting.

In truth, Yuliana still didn’t understand why no one ever got close to her since she was a kid.

The reason was that all of the tricks that she thought were well hidden actually looked ridiculously obvious to other people.

However, Yuliana was really startled by Sebastian this time. Her face became pale, and she dared not to breathe. Sebastian looked at her indifferently and said, “Jessica is my sister, and nobody can change this fact. No matter what kind of person she is, she is still my sister. The Ferguson family has been treating you well. If you dare to cause any harm to Jessica, I will expel you from the Ferguson family even if Grandma tries to protect you. I hope today’s incident will not be repeated.”

Yuliana slumped on her chair after Sebastian left. She then covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.

Wendy went upstairs out of concern upon seeing Sebastian leaving the room with an unpleasant look. She saw Yuliana crying her eyes out when she was at the door. “Oh, what’s wrong, Ms. Ferguson? Old Mrs. Ferguson would be heartbroken if she saw you sobbing like this,” said Wendy.

Yuliana looked up at Wendy with teary eyes and said, Wendy, my brothers hate me. No matter what I do, they still don’t seem to like me. Is it because I am not a child of the Ferguson family? Why did all my brothers like her when she didn’t even try to do anything for them? I’m the one who grew up with my brothers.”

She cried sorrowfully, with tears streaming down her face.

“Ms. Ferguson, your brothers treat her well because they feel guilty toward her. After some time, it will all be fine,” comforted Wendy.

Yuliana looked at Wendy pathetically and asked, “Really?”

Wendy saw Yuliana’s pure and innocent look and felt more pity for her.

She is such a pitiful child.

She doesn’t have parents and has been living under others’ roofs since she was young. Adding insult to injury, her three brothers don’t treat her as their sister, and her parents are even more careless with her.

If Old Mrs. Ferguson didn’t help her before, she would probably be in ruins now.

“Of course, it’s true. When have I ever lied to you? Wipe off your tears now, Ms. Ferguson. Don’t let Old Mrs. Ferguson see you in this state, or else she will start grieving.”

Yuliana wiped off her tears obediently. “Wendy, do my eyes look puffy? What should I do? I will feel bad if Grandma is sad because of me,” said Yuliana.

“It’s all right. I’ll go get something that will help with your eyes.”

“Okay.”

The moment Wendy left the room, Yuliana’s face turned from looking pathetic to gloomy and terrifying.

Countless young and beautiful students fled from the faculty building as soon as the bell rang. They walked and talked with each other in groups.

Suddenly, they were attracted by a tall figure standing under a tree nearby.

“Who’s that guy? He’s handsome,” said one of the girls in a low voice.

“He’s so cool.”

“Oh my goodness! He’s heading toward us.”

With his slender legs, the man under the tree walked toward the building.

“Hey, do you think he’s walking toward me?”

“Oh, he really does look like he’s approaching me. Could it be that he wants my number?!”

The girl blushed as she watched the man getting closer and closer to her.

Then, she saw the man pass by her. The man said in a deep and gentle voice, “Jessy.”

“Charles!” shouted Jessica with a smile on her face.

Uncle?! Why can’t I get around this word?

Chapter 452

Jessica saw his awkward face and smiled happily. “Charles!” she shouted.

Charles looked at her with eyes full of affection and said, Oh, you sure know how to tease me now.”

Both of them walked together on the shaded trail.

“Let me call Sam. She will be so happy to hear that you’re back,” said Jessica as she took out her phone from her bag. Before she could make the call, a pair of big hands stopped her.

“There’s no need for that. I made a call to her before coming here. She’s busy as she needs to join a club activity today.”

Jessica frowned. “Does she have club activities today? Why did she invite me to go shopping later this afternoon then?”

Charles answered calmly, “I suppose it’s an impromptu activity.”

Jessica didn’t suspect anything and nodded her head.

“How are you doing?”

“So far, so good.”

“I heard that Sebastian always comes to accompany you recently.”

“Yes. He’s not as busy these days.”

Charles’ eyes darkened when he noticed the watch on Jessica’s wrist.

“Your watch looks familiar. It looks like Hugh’s custom-made watch. I remember how excited he was when he got this watch.”

Jessica was surprised.

Yuliana cared about the watch, and now, even Charles is talking about the watch.

Jessica touched the watch on her wrist.

He continued to talk casually, “If I’m not mistaken, Hugh bought this watch after he earned his first pot of gold from Wale Street as a commemoration.”

“I see. That’s quite a story behind this watch,” said Jessica. She felt that the watch on her wrist had become heavier after listening to Charles.

If I had known how significant this watch meant to Hugh, I would not have accepted it.

Jessica took off the watch and asked, “Charles, can you give him the watch back for me when you return to Horington City?”

“You should accept it since he gave it to you,” replied Charles with a smile.

Jessica shook her head and said, “Please return it, Charles.”

Charles was in a difficult position. However, he still ended up putting the watch in his pocket.

Flavoroso Restaurant was particularly quiet that day. The restaurant only served up to three tables of guests and stopped at that. Many had come only to be turned away. When the elevator opened, the manager greeted the two people who were in the elevator, “Good evening, Mr. Young and Ms. Stone.”

The manager took them to a table beside the window. That spot offered the best view in the restaurant.

The food was delicious, but the portions were small. This made Jessica feel unsatisfied.

Charles gestured to the manager and whispered to him. When the next course was served, the portion was bigger. Jessica looked at the food and glanced at Charles. She then understood why the portion had suddenly become bigger.

Abruptly, Charles waved his hand. Then, his assistant stepped forward and passed him an exquisite gift box.

Charles pushed the gift box toward Jessica. “Open it.”

Jessica wiped her mouth and opened the box confusedly. Inside the box, there was a lady’s wristwatch with dazzling diamonds on it.

“This…”

“I have to buy you another watch since I made you return your watch just now. I asked Vince to get one from the shop downstairs a little while ago. It’s not expensive, so don’t be pressured.”

His assistant, Vince Miller, repeatedly nodded as to agree with Charles. However, he was complaining inside his heart. Mr. Young had the watch custom-made. He just got it yesterday, and yet he can’t wait to give it out today.

He’s making a one-of-a-kind watch sound like a cheap watch that can be bought on the streets.

曲

Chapter 453

How scary it must be for Jessica to reject it! Charles’ scheming nature became more evident as he deliberately made Jessica replace the watch that her brother gave her with the one he gifted.

Mr. Young is relentless when he’s chasing a girl!

Before Jessica could react or refuse, Charles picked up the watch. “I’ll put it on for you.”

She felt conflicted. The watch is certainly not cheap. Forget it; I’ll gift him something in return later.

At that moment, Jessica was unaware that the watch was custom-made and incredibly valuable. She was still thinking about how to politely return a gift that would be of equivalent value to this watch.

Once he secured the watch onto Jessica’s wrist, Charles visibly relaxed.

Jessica was so preoccupied with their platonic relationship that she did not even perceive this gesture to be vaguely romantic.

“Excuse me. I need to use the washroom.”

Jessica exited the cubicle and took her time washing her hands in the washroom. From her position, she could hear the conversation between two waitresses outside.

“That girl is doomed.”

“Once a woman catches Mr. Synder’s attention, she can no longer escape. I just saw his assistant spike her drink.”

“Shh, lower your voice. Don’t let anyone hear you.”

“What do you think? Should I let her know?”

The older waitress shuddered with fear and said in a low voice, “If you let her know, you might as well be dead. We once had a nosy waiter who liked to meddle with these affairs. Guess what? That guy got his leg broken in the middle of the night by some thugs. Even now, he still walks with a limp. It’s obvious that Mr. Synder was behind it.”

“Thank you for the warning. Otherwise, I would have made a terrible mistake. But… What about the girl?”

“Just pretend that you don’t know anything. You don’t know that girl’s intentions anyway.”

The two waitresses entered the washroom and were startled to see Jessica by the sinks, and they immediately left in a hurry.

Jessica exited the washroom after them and strolled down the eerily silent and empty corridor. The lounges on both sides of the pathway were empty. Only the lounge right at the end of the hall occasionally erupted with peals of laughter.

As she drew closer to the lounge entrance, she could hear cheers from behind the closed doors.

“Come on, everyone! Let’s have a toast to this goddess!”

The group of older gentlemen raised their glasses to toast a baby-faced girl in the center.

“Oh, but I don’t drink.”

“Darling, are you looking down on us? If you don’t want to drink for us, you should at least drink for Mr. Synder, right?”

“I won’t drink,” said the girl icily. “Find someone else to drink with you.”

The atmosphere in the lounge turned frigid. One of the men with parrot-like dyed hair spoke up frostily, “Come on, don’t embarrass us! You have to have at least one drink.”

The girl’s expression turned glacial. Picking up her handbag, she stood up to leave the lounge.

“You can’t leave just like that.” Two men also stood up and blocked her path.

The girl, Vivian Wilde, stared at them. “What? Are you looking for a fight?”

“Just be an obedient lady and have a drink with us. If not, don’t even think about leaving this lounge.”

“Really?” Vivian smirked. The next thing they knew, she

swiftly kicked one of the men in the stomach, causing him to fly into a corner from the sheer impact. In a smooth motion, she grabbed the arm of the other man and flipped him over her shoulder, slamming him to the ground violently.

The sudden brutality shocked everyone in the lounge.

Vivian kicked over a chair and stepped on its back barbarically. She looked at Mr. Synder, who was still perched on his throne. “I don’t think you’re good enough to have a drink with me!”

Chapter 454

The lounge descended into silence. Jessica peered excitedly through the gap of the lounge door. Wow! This girl is incredible!

Seeing that she was not going to get a response, Vivian kicked her chair away again and flipped her hair. As she was about to leave, her vision gradually blurred. The tables had turned.

“You, you…”

How despicable!

Vivian’s legs felt like jelly and could no longer support her weight. Crumbling to the floor, she flowed in and out of consciousness. The last thing she saw was Jessica between the gap of the lounge door.

Their eyes met briefly, and Vivian’s mouth moved, but no sound came out as she slipped into unconsciousness. Jessica, from outside the lounge, assessed the baby-faced beauty, who had collapsed. She knew a cry for help when she saw one.

When Vivian finally stilled, the men in the lounge turned predatory and smug. The two men who she previously defeated stalked around her limp body.

“Stupid bitch! How dare you hit me!” growled one of the men as he viciously stepped on her hand.

At that moment, the lounge door was ferociously kicked open, and the door smacked the wall loudly.

The sudden bang shocked the man and the other occupants of the lounge. However, their stupefied expressions turned into wolfish grins when they noticed that the perpetrator was a beautiful woman, even more so than the lady on the ground.

Still seated in the middle of the men, Yunus was

instantaneously attracted to Jessica’s vivacious attitude. What a woman! I will make her mine!

The more Yunus observed her, the more satisfied he became, and he could not hold back his sneer.

The two attendants next to Yunus noticed the change in his expression and immediately got the message that his goal had shifted. They advanced toward Jessica, shooting looks at the other men to get them to do the same.

Jessica ignored their movements and approached Vivian to help her up, supporting her on her shoulder. Before she could take another step, the two men blocked her way.

“Are you a friend of this woman?” asked the parrot-like man. “Your friend wrecked our room. Are you willing to compensate on her behalf?”

“Get lost,” snapped Jessica.

“Wow, both your attitudes really stink. If you want us to let you both go, just hand over some cash, and we’ll be on our way.”

Yunus’ attendant swiftly came between the parrot-like man and Jessica and grabbed the noisy man. “Shush, don’t be so crude. It is so uncouth to ask for money.”

With that, the attendant beamed at Jessica. “Miss, don’t be afraid. We aren’t bad people. Your friend is just drunk and got a little rowdy at our soiree. We don’t want to trouble you, and you don’t have to pay us. Mr. Synder is not that kind of guy.”

He looked steadily at Yunus as he spoke, and Jessica’s eyes followed his gaze. Under her inspection, Yunus directed a smirk back at her. While he probably thought it was charming, it only made Jessica queasy.

What a greasy man!

“Miss, if you have a drink with Mr. Synder as an apology, we will let this matter pass. What do you think?”

Before Jessica could reply, the attendant quickly instructed another attendant, “Bring a clean glass and pour her some. Just a little will do.”

The other attendant smiled and went off. As he decanted the wine, he sneakily tossed a white tablet into the glass. No one has to know, and no one will know.

Chapter 455

The attendant returned with a half-filled glass of wine and hurriedly ordered the other attendants, “What are all of you doing? Quick, bring Ms. Wilde to the couch.”

Two other men rushed over to Jessica to assist Vivian, but

Jessica waved them away.

“There is no need for that.”

Jessica helped Vivian to the couch and arranged her comfortably. When she was satisfied, she turned around and observed the men. From the calculative glint in their eyes, she could tell that they were up to no good.

She observed the three women in the room, who watched on with bated breath as though they were viewing a play. Jessica walked up to Yunus and studied the glass of wine on the table. “Are you sure you want me to drink with you?” The attendant chuckled, “It’s just a drink with Mr. Synder. We’ll let it go. Mr. Synder is an understanding man and won’ t try to antagonize you. Isn’t that right, Mr. Synder?”

Yunus raised his glass of wine to Jessica in response. “Of course.”

Jessica followed suit and lifted her glass. The audience in the lounge watched her closely with anticipation as though the climax of the play had come.

Jessica raised her glass high above her head. The next moment, the contents of the glass were dumped onto the head of the attendant. The attendant stared back at her in confusion.

The audience in the lounge was flabbergasted and gawked at Jessica incredulously. “Oh, my goodness!” a woman’s voice rang out in the background.

Does this lady want to die?

The attendant snapped out of his stupor and cursed at Jessica, “Screw you!”

As he yelled, he raised his hand to hit her, but Jessica dodged his attack fluidly. He lifted his leg to kick, but she nimbly weaved away and swept at his standing leg with a hard roundhouse kick.

Bang! The attendant was knocked to the ground.

Yunus’ team of attendants watched with dread. He tried to give you a chance! Do you not want it?

The atmosphere became animalistic, and Yunus’ posse watched Jessica with malicious glares.

Jessica casually surveyed the crowd, then paused at Yunus. “Are you sure you are good enough to drink with me?”

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Yunus’ sudden applause confused the spectators, but everyone remained as still as wax figures.

Yunus felt charmed and impressed by the fiery woman in front of him. What a spirited girl! Perfect!

Yunus sauntered over to Jessica, devouring her with his eyes as though she were dessert.

Such a perverted stare! His gaze made Jessica incredibly upset.

“You better tear your disgusting eyes off me,” Jessica ordered, enunciating every word she spoke.

“I haven’t introduced myself yet. I’m Yunus Synder from the Synder family. Are you familiar with the Lindel Steel Corporation? That is my family’s business. I truly admire you and would like to get to know you better.”

While Yunus gently tried to placate Jessica, two men silently came behind to flank her. Suddenly, they simultaneously lunged at Jessica. Unexpectedly for them, Jessica effortlessly took a step forward, causing them to stumble into the void she had created.

What beasts!

Jessica could not be bothered to continue conversing politely and started throwing punches. The room descended into chaos once more, with wine glasses, dinner plates, and everything else smashing onto the floor. The three women in the lounge started to shriek.

A waiter outside the door heard the commotion and shouted for the manager, Felix Webster, who immediately entered the lounge. Amid the unrest lay a woman and a man wrestling on the ground.

Felix squinted to get a clear look at the woman. As soon as he realized who she was, he gasped in horror.

魚

Chapter 456

Oh my god! That is Ms. Jessica Stone!

Felix panicked and hastily ordered the wait staff, “Quick, stop them!”

The waiters peered into the lounge and observed the frenzy, then looked at each other. They did not dare to go in at all. Yunus was not the only bloodthirsty fighter – in fact, Jessica could potentially be more violent. The fight was a ruthless one.

The whole lounge was in havoc. Felix was about to rage at the inaction of his staff when he realized that the atmosphere around him changed perceptibly. Taking a sideways glance, the sight he saw stunned him.

“M…-Mr. Young, please stop them. Ms. Stone will get hurt if they keep fighting,” Felix suggested tactfully.

Charles remained still and studied Jessica from the door of the lounge. “There is no need for that; they will be done soon.”

What? Felix was confused.

Not long after Charles spoke, Yunus was violently flung onto the table by Jessica. Utterly defeated, he was in such pain that he could not even pull himself up to recover.

Yunus yelled at Jessica, “You bitch! You better watch yourself!”

As soon as he was done shouting, he felt an ominous presence in the lounge. Yunus’ eyes widened in shock when he realized that Charles had arrived.

Immediately, his whole body was lifted by the neck, and his breath was squeezed out of his being.

“Mr. Young, spare him!”

With only one arm, Charles continued to lift Yunus’ entire body off the ground in a vice-like grip.

Felix watched Yunus, who was slowly turning red from suffocation and diplomatically approached Charles. “Mr. Young, I’m sure Mr. Synder knows that he was in the wrong.

If you keep strangling him, he’ll…”

Charles remained motionless. Similarly, everyone in the lounge was too scared to move after witnessing Charles’ rage. Even if Yunus were to order them to help, no one would lift a finger.

All of the onlookers were from Dellmoor and were familiar with the influence of Charles Young in Jadeborough. No one would go against him unless they were sick of living. Yunus’ vision blurred, and a single thought raced through his mind. Am I going to die here today?

When he drew what he thought would be his last breath, Charles flicked his wrist. Yunus’ body flew out of Charles’ grip like a sandbag, and the former collided with the ground heavily.

Yunus’ posse rushed up to check on him and sighed in relief when they saw that he was very much alive.

Charles paced toward them and rested his stern gaze on Yunus. “Do you know what you’re supposed to do now?” Yunus let out a cough and uttered weakly, “Yes, I know.” He turned to Jessica. “I’m sorry, I was completely blind. Please forgive me for this once; I won’t do it again.”

“Your apology is not accepted.”

Yunus cursed internally. You little bitch, if Charles weren’t here right now, I wouldn’t let you get away with this. “What should I do for your forgiveness? As long as it is within my power, I will grant your wish.” Yunus bowed sincerely, on the brink of kneeling to beg for mercy.

Jessica smiled wickedly. “Are you sure?”

Yunus and his men nodded.

Jessica motioned for Felix to come over. When he was

close enough to her, she whispered into his ear.

Felix responded with a surprised expression, then sympathetically regarded Yunus, who was still on the ground and left.

Yunus was intimidated by the expression Felix wore before he left. This bitch, what does she want?

The whole room watched on, equally curious.

Chapter 457

Upon seeing Charles waving his hand, his assistant brought a chair over. He then said, “Have a seat.”

Jessica took a glance and sat down.

His assistant then brought another chair over for Charles. After Charles sat down, a group of staff led by Felix returned, carrying boxes of liquor.

There were multiple kinds of liquor.

Yunus and the others were stunned and soon realized what Jessica was planning to do.

Felix asked the obvious politely, “Ms. Stone, I’ve brought the stuff you want. Where should I put them?”

Jessica pointed at Yunus and his fellows. “Put them there.”

“Got it.” Felix then turned and instructed the staff, “Bring them over there.”

The waiters then moved and placed the boxes of liquor in front of Yunus and his fellows.

Jessica smiled at them. “Don’t be nervous. I’m not an unreasonable person. I know that you guys love liquor, so I’ve let Mr. Webster prepare a variety of liquor. You can drink to your heart’s content. If you finish all the liquor, I’ll let you off. I’m being thoughtful by picking your favorite things as the punishment. It shouldn’t be that tough for you, right?” Yunus and the others could not refute her statement despite the resentment within them.

It was not because they could not voice their objection; It was because they dared not to.

They smiled bitterly.

Seeing no response from them, Jessica said with a smile on her face, “It looks like you’re unsatisfied with my arrangement. Mr. Webster, bring more liquor. The liquor here is not enough for them. Move all the liquor available in your restaurant here.”

They were almost shocked to death upon hearing that.

“These are enough! We don’t need to trouble Mr. Webster to get more liquor. We’re satisfied with these,” Yunus said while smiling wryly.

“Since they’re enough, drink them. We don’t have time to waste. Otherwise, I might change my mind to come up with a better plan. Would you prefer that instead?” Jessica asked happily.

Yunus and the others felt a chill run down their spines upon hearing that.

Jessica had become a devil to them.

“Drink!” Charles demanded coldly.

They started drinking the liquor unwillingly.

Yunus opened a bottle of wine and gulped it while the others picked liquor with low alcohol content.

A few men were seen drinking liquor non-stop in the room. Some of them tried to be smart by downing the liquor messily, allowing some to flow out of their mouths.

Jessica raised her eyebrow upon seeing that, but she did not expose their tricks.

She waved to Felix to come over. Soon, the latter brought a glass to her. She then started mixing all different kinds of liquor.

Yunus and his gang’s hearts skipped a beat upon seeing her action.

“Give this to the yellow-haired guy as a reward.”

Felix delivered the mixed liquor to the yellow-haired guy, and the latter then looked at Jessica with a pitiful look.

“You should drink slowly. Be careful not to waste any liquor. It’d be troublesome for me if I had to prepare another special drink.”

The others were afraid of pulling off any tricks after listening to her threat.

The yellow-haired guy finished the liquor with tears in his eyes.

Half an hour later, their faces were red, and decorated with painful expressions.

Felix looked worriedly at Charles.

Seeing the latter having no sign of stopping them, he then turned his gaze to Jessica.

Chapter 458

“Do they taste good?” Jessica asked.

Enduring his rage, Yunus answered, “Y-Yes.”

“In that case, go on. It’s on me today. I’ll let you all drink to your heart’s content.”

Yunus almost cursed.

His lousy minion then shouted, “They don’t taste good! Not at all!”

He was hinting that he had had enough of drinking.

Jessica sneered. “If it’s that bad, then why would you force someone to drink in the first place? Mr. Webster, reward that man with a custom-made drink for his bravery to voice out.”

That man was on the verge of tears.

The rest were terrified upon seeing Jessica, having seen through his tricks.

This woman is a lunatic. She won’t compromise whether we say they taste good or bad. She just wants us dead!

Yunus wanted to ask when he could stop, yet he dared not to do so.

He knew that he would end up more miserable than ever if he asked the devilish Jessica.

After ten minutes, their pace of drinking slowed as they were drunk.

Jessica glanced at the bottles on the floor and then at the drunk men. They have a good alcohol tolerance.

She then took out her phone and recorded the drunk men who were cuddling and dancing together.

Charles did not interrupt her plan throughout the whole process.

The waiters who were watching them did not have the courage to record the funny moments as they were scared of the men taking revenge on them.

“Mr. Webster, I’ll let you handle the rest.”

Felix nodded immediately. “Okay, no problem.”

Jessica stood up, walked to the rest area, and helped the fainted Vivian up.

Charles’ assistant came forward, trying to help. “Ms. Stone, let me do it. I’m stronger since I’m a man.”

“But she’s a girl. I’ll be fine. You can help me hold the door.” The quick-witted Felix then told some waitresses to help Jessica carry Vivian out of the restaurant.

After getting in the car, Jessica thought about ransacking Vivian’s bag to figure out where the latter lived. However, she held that thought as it would be inappropriate.

“Jace, find us a hotel.”

Jace drove them to one of the hotels owned by Charles and booked a room. After getting Vivian settled, they went back to university.

At the entrance of the dorms, Jessica was staring at Charles. “Thank you.”

“Silly girl!”

He only left after she went upstairs.

After getting in his car, the heartwarming smile on his face was replaced with a cold expression. He then dialed a number.

“Ash, relay a message to Lindel Steel Corporation’s director, Mr. Synder. I can teach his son a thing or two about life if he doesn’t.”

Ash, who was about to take his break, could only heed the order. “Okay.”

At the same time, the drunk Yunus had no idea of the misery awaiting him.

The next day, Vivian sat up when she was awake. When she found out that she was at the hotel, her face turned pale. She quickly lifted the blanket and let out a sigh of relief after making sure that she was unharmed.

Just then, her mobile phone in her bag rang. She briskly took it out and was terrified when she saw the caller.

“Hello?”

“Vivian, do you still want your job? Where is the edited draft? I’m warning you. If you delay it any further, I won’t accept it, and you’ll have to prepare to pay the contractual damages!” the editor shouted and hung up the phone instantly.

With a look of despair, Vivian tossed her phone onto the bed. A note with neat writing on the table then caught her eye.

“Stay away from the scums and beware of the mastermind. Don’t thank me and please call me Rayleigh.”

Vivian laughed when she read the final sentence.

Wow! That lady is so cool!

Chapter 459

Young men and women were seen walking along the tree-lined road.

“Where has Sebastian been these few days?” Samantha walked while eating a bag of potato chips.

“There’s a rare case overseas that needs his aid.”

Although Sebastian was not in the country, he would send small gifts to Jessica once every few days. Those gifts might not have been expensive but were amusing all the time.

Samantha nodded. “I see. I wonder how Daisy is now. I haven’t seen her updating her social media recently.”

“Don’t you know she has joined a training camp?”

“Daisy, that little brat is being too unfair! How could she tell you but not me? I’ll punish her when she returns.” Samantha crunched her potato chips hard.

Jessica frowned when she sensed someone staring at her.

“What’s the matter?” Samantha noticed the change in her expression.

Jessica looked around.

A middle-aged couple hid behind a tree when she turned to look in their direction.

Hence, she found nothing suspicious in her inspection.

Samantha followed her gaze and could not see anything strange.

“What are you looking at?” Samantha asked.

“Nothing.”

Am I imagining things?

Jessica then walked away with Samantha.

After they left that vicinity, the middle-aged couple stopped hiding behind the tree.

“Yusra, you saw it with your own eyes. Lilian is safe and sound. She’s living a happy life. Can you stop worrying about her?” Aaron asked gently.

Yusra kept staring in the direction where Jessica left without saying anything.

“Nobody is stealing Lilian away from us. Lilian is studying and not snatched away by bad people.”

Yusra nodded.

Looking at her reluctant face, Aaron said, “We can meet her.”

However, Yusra shook her head. “No, Lilian hasn’t forgiven us yet. Don’t disturb her. Watching her from afar is enough for me.”

“Okay.” Aaron heeded her words as long as she was happy. Jessica constantly felt eyes on her for the next couple of days. However, she could not find out who it was every time.

The person hiding in the dark was sly and had good observational skills.

Determined not to stay still after noticing the problem, Jessica told Samantha about her plan.

Samantha made an “okay” gesture after listening to her plan.

“Don’t worry. I’ll capture that person.”

In fact, Jessica already had a suspect in her mind.

I don’t think I’ve made any new enemies aside from Yunus and his followers. It must be them.

In the meantime, Yunus, who was currently bedridden and grounded, did not know that he was being accused of stalking Jessica.

Jessica walked into the school with Samantha as usual.

However, Samantha suddenly left midway.

Jessica acted as if she did not notice the gaze and sent a message to Samantha, reporting her location.

After receiving the message, the latter ran to that location only to find Aaron and Yusra hiding.

Samantha’s heart shook when she saw both of them.

Without getting closer, she used her mobile phone to take a photo of the scene she saw.

She then left before being noticed by Aaron.

At that moment, she did not know that Aaron had already noticed her presence and was playing dumb.

When she returned, Jessica asked, “How is it? Have you captured them?”

Chapter 460

Samantha nodded. “See it for yourself.”

She then shoved her phone at Jessica.

The latter was stunned when she saw the photo of Aaron and Yusra peeping at her in the distance. Her heart could not help but ache.

Samantha noticed the change in her expression. Yet, she could not think of the right words to say.

She knew that Aaron and Yusra had always missed her.

Jessica returned the mobile phone to her and walked forward quietly.

Samantha said in a soft voice, “Jess, maybe you should go see them. I can tell that they miss you a lot.”

If they didn’t, they wouldn’t be peeping at her from time to time.

“If they want to see me, they’ll come to me.”

Samantha was stunned.

Her words sounded simple, but I think they mean something different. Oh well, I can’t understand it anyway.

The next day, Aaron and Yusra did not appear.

On the day after that, Jessica sensed the familiar gaze again.

Noticing Jessica slowing down, Samantha paced herself too. “Aren’t you rushing to save us some seats? Why are you slowing down?”

Jessica answered casually, “I don’t think that’s necessary. The weather is nice. I’d rather find a better spot.”

“I like your idea.”

They walked leisurely to the library.

The situation continued for half a month. However, Aaron and Yusra still did not reveal themselves in front of Jessica.

At the same time, Jessica did not confront them.

It was as if they had come to an agreement to ignore each other’s presence.

At the end of the month, the agreement came to an end.

“Honey, what should we do if Lilian refuses to come?”

Aaron held his wife’s hand tightly to erase the uneasiness in her. “She won’t. Lilian is a good girl. She won’t reject us.” “But what if she does?” Yusra could not calm herself.

“Yusra, don’t worry. I’m here.”

If she continues to be nervous, her health might worsen. She’s not losing consciousness just like before. I can’t have that happen after she has just shown signs of recovering.

Just when Yusra was dealing with her uneasiness, Jessica was sighted.

“Lilian is here.” Yusra held Aaron’s hand tight.

Holding her hand, Aaron walked toward Jessica.

Jessica’s face stiffened when she saw them coming toward her.

Although it was not the first time they met, she felt more defenseless when facing her parents.

The coldness in Aaron’s eyes melted and they were filled with warmth from seeing their beautiful daughter. “Lilian.”

He then realized he had spoken the wrong name and immediately corrected himself, “Jess.”

Samantha sighed in relief when they finally appeared.

l just don’t understand the Ferguson family. It’s not only Jess’s parents but also Jess herself. Now that one side has finally taken the first step to show themselves, everything seems good now.

Samantha said to Aaron, “Mr. Ferguson, you guys can have a nice chat. I’ve got to go.”

Aaron nodded in response.

Samantha left quickly, giving some space for the Ferguson family.

Looking at her pretty and precious daughter, Yusra reached out her hands, trying to caress her daughter’s face. However, her hands halted in midair.

Looking at her trembling hands, Jessica raised hers to hold them.

A happy smile grew on Yusra’s face instantly.
