Chapter 44 The Panic Of Losing Her

last update Last Updated: 2024-01-08 10:06:10
"Just now I came to the hospital and saw Henry walking with Mr. Marcus. Jessica, have they recognized each other as father and son?" Quincy looked at Jessica and asked, his gaze deep and unreadable, suppressing the panic of losing her.

Jessica's heart trembled. Indeed, she should have anticipated this!

"Quincy...actually..." Jessica didn't know where to start, so she had to recount the whole situation. She sighed bitterly, "I thought I could keep this secret for a lifetime, but I didn't expect it to be exposed so quickly after returning to America, and Henry willingly walked into the trap himself. As a mother, I have no right to deprive Henry and Mr. Marcus of the opportunity to recognize each other. Although I am extremely unwilling, I cannot stop it. Otherwise, it will be unfair to both Henry and Marcus."

Quincy looked deep into her eyes, trying to find a trace of false helplessness in her face, but he realized she was sincere. Plans always lag behind changes, and nobody could hav

    The next day, Mr. Marcus escorted Henry to school. For him, this was an incredibly fresh experience. Watching the parents who brought their children to school, Mr. Marcus felt that he would also step into this line in the future. He was very happy. "This is your school?" Marcus looked at the elegant school gate, feeling that it was quite good. "It's beautiful, right? Mommy said she chose it because she liked its appearance," Henry stuck out his tongue, undermining his mommy's choice. He really liked this campus, tranquil and simple. "Shallow!" Mr. Marcus snorted. Henry smiled, waving his hand. "Goodbye, Dad. I finish school at 4:30!" "Got it, go!" "Henry, is that your dad?" a classmate girl happened to meet them, smiling warmly as she approached. "Yes, that's my dad!" Henry said. Usually, he would come to class alone, but this time his dad brought him, attracting curiosity from some of the new classmates who noticed the resemblance between Mr. Marcus and Henry. They all knew t

    Old Mr. Alston remained expressionless, and in his murky eyes, there was a suppressed complexity of emotions. It seemed like hatred, like infatuation, colliding furiously. Similar! Too similar! Looking at the photo, it was about seventy to eighty percent similar. Seeing her in real life, it felt even more like Diana Brown, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, appearing vividly in front of him. "Mr. Alston, may I ask what brings you here?" The nurse was knocked out and fell in the corner. Jessica could only rely on herself and adapt to the situation. Clearly, the visitor was unfriendly! Inside the sick ward, she dared not move, fearing that any slight movement would result in bullets being fired at her. Tension was in the air. She fumbled under the quilt, and found Mr. Marcus' phone, trembling with fear of being discovered. It took all her composure to dial the number. "Jessica, Miss Jessica..." Mr. Alston spoke slowly, his sharp eyes fixed on her face, revealing a deep hatred.

    Raymond nodded, opened the car door, and tried to push Henry out. At such a fast speed, pushing a child out of the car would give him n chance to survive. Raymond and Florence knew this, but to avoid being implicated, they had to sacrifice Henry. Unfortunately, they miscalculated! "Go to DC Avenue, immediately!" Henry pointed his gun at Raymond's forehead, smiling brightly. "Option 1, live. Option 2, die. Which one do you choose?" "Don't mess around!" Raymond screamed. "Push him out, he's scary. This is a toy gun!" Henry turned around and shot a bullet next to Florence. There was no gunshot sound, but the seat cushion had a big hole in it. A smirk appeared on Henry's lip as he elegantly said, "A toy gun, huh? Should I try shooting you in the head?" "No!" Florence fearfully stared at the hole. "Raymond, listen to him." Raymond closed the car door again, turned the car around, and drove towards the DC Highway. It must be said, these two were the most inexperienced and unlucky k

    "Drive to the intersection up ahead and immediately make a U-turn, understood?" Henry said. Raymond's pupils shrank in fear. "A U-turn? That's facing them head-on?" This was suicidal behavior, and Raymond shook his head fearfully. But Henry said in a solemn voice, "Trust me!" Raymond looked deeply at Henry, feeling like he wanted to cry. He thought today was the unluckiest day of his life. If he ever saw this kid again, he would keep his distance. Florence, who had gone from excitement to pale in the face, and Raymond gritted their teeth. Raymond was brave enough to admit that he was timid, but along the way, this kid had taken down three cars and over a dozen assassins. He believed in him. If they were lucky, they could escape this nightmare of a day. Henry took a deep breath. He wasn't fearless, holding a gun for the first time, shooting for the first time. He had no idea if he could aim accurately. It was a gamble! His luck had always been good! The car suddenly turned around

    "If you dare, go ahead and shoot!" Jessica raised her eyes and said coldly. Jessica had always been a strong and assertive presence since she was young. She refused to believe that Old Mr. Alston would shoot in the hospital. "What's the use of just talking? Do you think I'm someone who can be scared? Old Mr. Alston, you are brutal. You are cruel. You're not qualified to be a father, and even less qualified to be Marcus's father. If I were him, I would have gone to court a long time ago to request severing the father-son relationship with you." "You..." Old Mr. Alston's face turned red as Jessica's provocations choked him with anger. He wanted nothing more than to dismember this audacious girl. "Alright, alright, alright! You're good with words. I want to see how long you can keep from crying!" He was convinced that their son had probably been killed by now! Narrowing her eyes, Jessica coldly chuckled, "You mentioned my son, didn't you? Do you think anyone can harm even a single hair

    Marcus swiftly answered, his eyebrows raising higher in surprise. Antonio was reporting his son's achievements, describing them as if he were there himself. If Marcus knew that Antonio had been monitoring the whole scene, he would surely be furious. "How is this possible?" Old Mr. Alston's voice suddenly escalated. "This can't be!" He simply couldn't believe that a child, a seven-year-old child, had single-handedly eliminated the twenty assassins he had sent, leaving not a single survivor. What kind of scene was that? He could hardly imagine it. Old Mr. Alston had dominated his entire life and had never heard of such a miraculous event. In a situation like this, most seven-year-old children would just cry. How could anyone escape the pursuit of twenty professional killers? This was impossible! Jessica saw the starkly different reactions of the father and son and knew that her son was safe. The tightness in her heart was finally released. Marcus hung up the phone and smiled at Jes

    "Don't worry, there won't be a next time!" Marcus confidently stated, a hint of hostility flickering across his icy gaze. If there was a next time, he wouldn't have to be polite and considerate. Dennis was an example of what would happen! Knowing Old Mr. Alston, Marcus knew that the next move would be to control his marriage! It was ridiculous! Well, it was for the best. At least Henry's crisis was resolved. It wasn't fortunate like this every time. Although he won through this fierce battle! "Henry, I think you should move back home. You only moved in with him for a day and look what happened. If you stayed a few more days, would you even still be alive?" Jessica teased, patting her son's tender face. "Shouldn't you consider my suggestion?" Marcus pursed his lips. Was this what he wanted? Even if he didn't move back, he would still be chased and killed. These two things weren't necessarily connected, were they? Henry shook his head and leaned in, affectionately hugging Marcus. W

    Hospital, early morning. Jessica had the nurse take her downstairs to get some fresh air early in the morning. Lying in bed all day was boring. The past few years had been too busy. She had gotten used to a fast-paced life. Suddenly having free time felt uncomfortable, as if a part of her life had been forcibly taken away. The greens in the garden outside the hospital were well-maintained. Many patients were walking or sunbathing downstairs, old and young. From their faces, she saw signs of suffering, as well as serene calmness. The most eye-catching was a pair of twin boys playing with a small soccer ball in the garden. They were around seven or eight years old, similar in age to Henry. They looked adorable, like little dolls, slightly clumsy in their movements, displaying the characteristic slowness of children. Their faces were rosy from running around, looking pink and tender, incredibly cute. Their mother smiled as she watched the two children frolic, occasionally reminding th

    "They saved me," said Saxon, with a cold laugh, "In fact, it was just a trap set by their brothers. They sent someone to ambush me while pretending to save me, successfully getting close to me. Their goal is the mafia, I'm not sure which faction they belong to.""You're really dumb," Camellia retorted. If it were Victor or Robin, this wouldn't have happened. Their core organization doesn't allow outsiders to invade easily, no matter how much trust there is.Saxon's defeat in just a few months was greatly influenced by his misjudgment of people."I admit defeat in this move," Saxon said solemnly. "Just go ahead and kill me."Camellia looked at him and smiled, "My dear brother, if I kill you, my nephew will come after me. Your life should be taken by his own hands, that's what you owe him."Desperate, Saxon closed his eyes and whispered, "Camellia, please fulfill my request, considering we're siblings.""Even if you may be my father, I won't fulfill your request," Camellia said firmly.

    There were only five people on the ship.Saxon stood alone on the deck, gazing intensely at the sea, his desire to kill growing stronger. To avoid accidents, he should kill her now. And when Mr. Marcus arrived, he could deliver the final blow.Just as he thought that, the ship stopped, and Saxon roared, "What's going on?""Oh, nothing much. They were tired, so I let them rest forever." A dark figure leaped effortlessly onto the deck, her long hair flowing and her black bodysuit accentuating her seductive figure, her eyebrows exuding absolute icy firmness.Saxon called out in disbelief, "Jessica, you..."She opened her mouth, moved her lips, spat out a voice changer, and tore off the mask on her face, revealing a stunningly alluring face in front of Saxon.He was greatly surprised, but she smiled enchantingly, "My dearest big brother, you could disguise as my Brother Marcus, so why can't I disguise as my brother-in-law?

    On the cruise ship out at sea.Jessica tried to move her wrist, but the handcuffs were tight, with long shackles on her feet, trailing chains on the ground, giving the room a particularly gloomy atmosphere. She smiled as she glanced around the room; it was actually quite a nice room, decorated luxuriously and comfortably. She thought to herself, that maybe if Saxon had tied her to the bed, she could have had a peaceful sleep.Her face was pale, breathing seemed a bit difficult, gasping continuously, yet she coldly laughed. Raising her hand, she knocked heavily on the cabin door. As expected, the door opened shortly after, and a tall figure appeared in the doorway, stepping inside.Blonde hair, blue eyes, with a menacing aura that seemed to suffocate, as if ready to destroy the entire world. Such a presence would make anyone feel scared.Jessica, however, smiled, appearing very calm with her usual smile, her gaze passing over him as she said, "Saxon, weren't you in Colombia planning to

    Marcus slammed the door shut, and pressed his hand against it, hands supporting the door, his gaze darkly fixed on her. Jessica tried to stay calm but felt her heart racing.She couldn't meet Mr. Marcus's eyes directly, so her gaze shifted, each movement making him breathe a bit harder. She calmly lowered her eyes, ready to listen to his scolding.For a while, Mr. Marcus didn't say a word, his imposing demeanor making Jessica nervous.Finally, Jessica blurted out, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lied to you, but you can't blame me for this. Henry asked why he didn't have a dad. I couldn't possibly tell him that you're the child of a one-night stand with a stranger, right? That would be devastating for the kid. So I had to come up with this cheesy love story. Who knew you actually got into an accident and lost your memory? Henry had already told you about the cheesy drama in advance, so I just went along with the flow. It was really just an accident, I swear.""You had plenty of chances t

    It was his mother's death anniversary that day, and feeling upset, Mr. Marcus went to the bar alone after visiting the grave. Someone approached him, but he turned them down. In such moments, he had no peace of mind, but little did he know that he would meet her.She got drunk and staggered. He hurried over to help her, but she mistook him for a money boy. He was furious, feeling his pride was hurt. He was enraged, knowing she came looking for a man, and he wanted to strangle her.In his rage, that anger turned into desire.Furthermore, knowing she had been drugged fueled his anger even more. He was angry at her, frustrated with her. He couldn't understand why he had such strong impulses towards a woman he hardly knew.Maybe it was the moment of palpitations at the beach or the moment of heart fluttering when she looked up at him as he held her.That night, he lost control.But who would have known that when he woke up the next day, there was a note at the head of his bed with $100 an

    On that day, Jessica flipped through the guest list for the wedding invitations and couldn't find Quincy's name. She raised an eyebrow and asked Henry, "How long has it been since you talked to Uncle Quincy?""Long time," Henry chuckled. "Mom, you also need to send invitations to the uncles and aunts on Grandpa's side. Why not send one to Uncle Quincy too?"Jessica nodded, hesitated for a moment, then decided to have Camellia drive her to meet Quincy at the park in front of the Lee Family's house.Michael Lee had been in the hospital for a while, feeling down ever since the case with Diana Brown. He had lost his former dominance and charisma; the once mighty business tycoon had fallen, his glory days long gone.Jessica felt sorry about the situation. If it weren't for what Michael Lee had done, she wouldn't have spoken so harshly that day. She only felt guilty towards Quincy.Quincy just smiled and didn't say much. There was a bit of awkwardness between them, not as warm as before, bu

    Herman shot her a look of anger, but Camellia wasn't afraid of him at all. The poor little brother, always overshadowed by his brother, how sad. Any woman who falls for him still has to compete with his brother for attention, it's really a special kind of frustration.He was angry, and in the past, he would have definitely closed the video, out of sight out of mind. But today was different, he just stared at Camellia intensively.Suddenly, Camellia was curious about something, "Herman, do you have a brotherly love obsession?"If he answered yes, it would be quite interesting. She felt chaotic just thinking about it. She and Rose had also been suspected of having a lesbian relationship, and now with a pair of brothers who seem to have a homosexual relationship. Wow!"What do you mean by a brotherly love obsession?" Herman questioned.Camellia replied with a mischievous tone, "It means you look at your brother and wonder if you want to pounce on him and violate him."Rose's face darkene

    After a while, there was no response from the other end.Camellia calculated the time—it was early morning in Colombia, so he shouldn't be so easily provoked to find a woman to solve his desire. Whether he understood sex was still a problem.She deliberately teased him and let him stew in anticipation."Uncle, it's been a while, and he hasn't responded," Henry said. "Maybe Herman has bled so much from his nose he passed out?"Rose chuckled. "Maybe he is having sex with a beauty."Rose nudged Camellia playfully. "Camellia, don't overdo it. You might regret it later."Camellia waved her hand, smiling without saying a word, then typed on the keyboard: "Herman, how's my figure?"After a while, there was some movement on the line, and unexpectedly, a naked picture of Herman was sent over. It was artistically shot, but his expressionless face still exuded a sinister air.Camellia, "..."Rose, "..."Henry covered his face and wailed, "Uncle-in-law, please consider the innocence of minors...

    "Are you happy?" Mr. Marcus released her swollen lips from their embrace, with a smile. Whether she was happy or not was his top concern.She nodded, extremely happy.She could cherish this moment for a lifetime."As long as you're happy, darling. Henry and Camellia will arrive the day after tomorrow. They'll stay until our wedding and honeymoon. You'll be even happier," Mr. Marcus said with a smile. In the afternoon, Henry had already informed him online that he and Camellia would arrive on different flights but on the same day."Really?" Jessica's face lit up with surprise, pouting, "Henry is biased. He told you, but not me. So unfair."Mr. Marcus chuckled, "I and he need to discuss some matters.""Hmph!" Miss Jessica pouted unhappily.Mr. Marcus smiled, holding her, feeling content.She suddenly thought of something, "If you went to such great lengths for a proposal, our wedding will be like...even more sensational?""You don't need to worry about that, just put on the wedding dres
