Zoella chuckled. "Jenna, it's all because of your sheer luck. Shouldn't you share some of your luck with me, a woman who has been dealt a bad hand in life?" She was acting off the wall, and it was obvious that she harboured foul intentions. "Zoella, we are all women. Why do we have to make things difficult for the child? Tell me, as long as it's within my means, I can give it to you. I only ask that you don't hurt my child." Jenna begged pitifully on the phone, with tears dripping down her face. Zoella waited until she was done pleading before slowly saying, "Alright, looking at your sincerity, I'll give you a chance. But, you shouldn't play any tricks. Know that Jerry is in my hands. In the unlikely event that you pull even the slightest trick and provoke me, I'll immediately have Aria end his life for good." "No, please, I beg you, I won't have any tricks up my sleeve, I promise I won't." As soon as Jenna heard Zoella, her heart felt like it was being twisted
"Jerry, Jerry, it's Mom. How are you doing now?" As soon as the phone was beside Jerry's ear, Jenna's anxious voice traveled into his ears. As soon as the familiar voice reached Jerry's ears, he began to bawl. "Mom, come and save me! I don't want to stay here! They're all so fierce! It's so dark here! I'm scared!" Jerry's cries were akin to a hammer pounding Jenna's heart. It was so painful that she used one hand to clutch her chest tightly, suppressing her grief and indignation. She then consoled him in a soft and clear voice. "Jerry, be good, don't be afraid, be strong. Mom will come and pick you up right away." "Mom, I want you to pick me up as soon as possible. Please be here," Jerry screamed on the phone. "Don't worry, I-" Before Jenna could finish her sentence, Zoella took the phone back and put it to her ear. Jenna wailed in agony on the phone, as if her heart and lungs were being torn apart, while on Zoella's face, an immensely satisfying smile was
Hansen grasped what this woman was plotting, and a mocking smile materialized on his lips. His finger brushed the tips of her red nails away and slightly lowered his head. He whispered beside her ear, "Do you really want to know?" "Of course." Zoella's face reeked of intoxication and curiosity. She blinked her eyes and nodded repeatedly. Her eyes were swirling with affection and seduction, and all kinds of amorous feelings. No man alive could escape from the passionate web she spun. Nevertheless, Hansen's words soon made her gasp. "No, you are beautiful and excellent, but your heart is also venomous. Since childhood, your possessiveness has been extremely strong, and you are sinister. Think about it, will any man like you, a scorpion-like woman? I can tell you clearly now, even if you give yourself to me, I will never touch you." Every word spat out by Hansen was clear, decisive, and firm. Zoella's facial expression went through myriads of changes. In the
Hansen suppressed the nauseated feeling in his stomach. "If I could just knock Zoella out and control her, will I be able to get hold of Jerry?" he thought. Obviously, the astute Zoella had long since thought of this. She was already prepared for this. She took the phone from the table next to her and tapped on the video. In the video, Jerry was crying and screaming. She presented it to Hansen. In an instant, Hansen had forgotten all of his schemes. His heart was twitching and the muscles on his face were twisted. He owed Jerry too much. When Jenna had been pregnant with him and had given birth to him, they had no place to live outside. He had not fulfilled his duty as a father, and at that moment, he was in the hands of such a vicious woman. How much suffering would he have to go through? A fire burned in his heart. He clenched his fists, and his sanity was close to snapping. "Hansen, if you dare to scheme anything again, then I will mak
"Kimmel, I am now giving a d*mned order. No matter what, this time, you must ensure the safety of Jenna's family. Take your subordinates to investigate quickly, and report to me as soon as you discover any clues. I will go personally this time." Madam Lilian just thought for a moment, and immediately instructed. When she was about to put down the phone, she thought of something and immediately added, "Kimmel, if the criminals only want Jenna and Hansen alone, then you should be particularly careful. Don't let the criminals know your actions. After all, Jerry is still in their hands. It is very likely that they will kill the child if they get angered. This will be very unfavorable to Jerry. Nothing must happen to him." Kimmel was aware of Madam Lilian's sharp mind. He immediately understood and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I will be careful only to show up at critical moments and not to alert them." After Kimmel put down the phone, he immediately gathered his men and began to
Jenna stood at the foot of Sunshine Mountain, listening to the blowing wind from time to time and the chirping of insects on the mountain, with her heart overwrought. Without any leads to find Jerry or Zoella, the longer she stayed here, the more she felt restless and uneasy. She continued to pace back and forth, her heart was burning with agitation. A gust of wind blew, and the sad and shrill cry of a child drifted into her ears. Jerry! Jenna only had this consciousness. She immediately stopped and held her breath. This cry was so familiar to her that it tugged at her heart. As far as she could remember, Jerry had never cried in such a miserable way. However, as a mother, she could tell so. "Jerry, my child." After she pricked up her ears and heard it twice more, she began to yell in a shrill voice. "Jerry, Jerry," she called out anxiously, with her voice growing louder than before. Her voice echoed out through the valley. Af
"Aria, regardless of how great your resentment is, just direct it at me. The child is innocent. How about this? Come down first. If you have any requests, then feel free to speak up. So long as it's within my abilities, I will definitely fulfil them." Jenna held back the grief and indignation in her heart and tried to persuade her civilly. She knew that if she were to reason with such a mentally twisted person at that moment, it would be akin to talking to a brick wall. At that point, the best way was to go along with her and save Jerry from her. Jerry was her life. "Me? Go down?" Aria laughed hysterically. "Do you really think I'm that stupid? As long as I go down, I'll be immediately caught by you. Do you really think that I'm dumb to this extent?" Aria continued to laugh scornfully, with her eyes glancing behind her. Jenna jumped in surprise as her eyes followed the direction of Aria's line of sight. Behind her, they saw that Kimmel and the police
"Mom, Mom," Jerry screamed excitedly as a smile appeared on his pale little face when he saw Jenna. He kept shouting for her in a raspy voice. "Jerry, it's alright now. Mom's here. I'm here to save you." Jenna used her hand to wipe the sweat off her forehead and smiled encouragingly at Jerry. "Okay." Jerry nodded. After enduring an onslaught of frights, he looked much better right then. Jenna's heart ached when she saw the bruises on Jerry's face. She wasn't sure how bad his injuries were. "Aria, I'm here. You must keep your promise. I've brought the Ocean Heart. You must release Jerry now," Jenna solemnly said to Aria, standing on a rock closest to them. Aria's ghostly figure turned around, staring at Jenna. Then, she laughed sinisterly when her eyes swept over Jenna's belly. "First things first, hand over the Ocean Heart." She suddenly stopped laughing and yelled at Jenna. "Okay, I'll give it to you right away." Jenna took out the Ocean Heart
