This was the second time Lexi's cell phone alarm went off, but the man didn't open his eyes either.Lexi turned off his cell phone alarm.

He wanted to hug her back but there was no Jessica there.With both his eyes still closed, Lexi groped the side of his bed.The side of the bed was empty. His wife was not beside him.Lexi slowly opened his eyes to make sure. Sure enough, there was no Jessica beside him.Lexi opened his eyes. He tried to get out of his sleep, and stood. His eyes looked into the bathroom and there was no sound from there.After that he walked to the bathroom door to check if Jessica was there. "Jessica," he called as he opened the door.

Jessica is out of the house! Now I'm looking for her at the orphanage. You immediately find Jessica, find the places where Jessica might have arrived!" Lexi said."Miss Jessica left the house?" Arsene was shocked. He could guess why the young woman was able to leave the Ricardo family’s house.“This morning when I woke up, Jessica was no longer by my side. And from the CCTV tape, I found a car picking her up in front of the house and taking him away!" Lexi told.“Well, if Daniel Kim is the one who took her away, I will immediately go to the airport!"

There was Mrs. Anna and Mr. Samuel who always loved her whether sincere or not.At first she thought all the members of Ricardo sincerely loved her. However, if Lexi could pretend to love her to get a baby. Was it not the same with his parents? They were good with Jessica for wanting something."Elsa," Daniel said. He grabbed his sister's hand and led her through the hallways of the airport."Yes," she said.“Do you remember your sixth birthday party?" Daniel started the conversation.

Was Jessica kidnapped? What should I do to help you? I can't see you just quiet like this Lexi. Please say something!" Samuel said calmly.It was a long time before Lex finally spoke.“You were involved in an accident twelve years ago, the car accident that killed Jessica's parents, right?" Lexi asked as he lowered his fist. He didn't want his father to see his sad expression. Moreover, he was also not ready to listen to the truth of the story.“Since when did you know it Lexi?” Mr. Samuel still refused to tell him everything. He was involved in that accident.“For a long time, it's been a long time since I investigated you, dad. Which makes me suspect, why didn't Jessica's family approve of her relationship with me? Could it be you who caused the accident twelve years ago?”“What do

Several times Arsene came to the house to see his boss. However, with what power he still could not force Lexi to go to work. He couldn't go to work, to get out of bed he just could not.It seemed that Mrs. Anna had just put a warm towel on Lexi's forehead. She hoped his temperature was not high anymore. For three days after Jessica's left their house, her son was just in his room until last night he got sick.“When Mr. Lexi got sick?" Arsene asked. He noticed Lexi's pale face. His lips were pale.

She would be closer to Jessica so that she did not leave.Silence. Both of them are devoted to Lexi. “Did you call the doctor?"asked Arsene. I wish Lexi a speedy recover

David was so confident.“Good, then how about you Elsa, are you ready to go to college? I really hope you can study in college to be like your friends, Beryl and Chelsea,” her grandfather asked. He knew his granddaughter felt sad, so she slowly eroded his sadness. He gave a busy life that made Elsa not always think about her bad memories while living with Lexi."Tomorrow I'm ready to go to college, grandpa! Today I am going to finish my study on some of the materials that have been left behind. And Beryl's gonna be here after college, too. Grandpa all
