Martha's cry was immediately jammed in her throat, and she took a deep breath."Who… Who wanted to kill you?" Her voice trembled a little."I don't know. I didn't put my head into the water. Someone pinned me down.""Someone in your cell?"Johnny shook his head. "I don't know. I didn't see it. I was washing my face, but someone pushed my head from behind.""But the police said that after watching the surveillance tapes, it was you who collected the water in the sink and put your head in it!""There’s a problem with the surveillance..." Johnny trembled as he spoke, and his voice lowered, "There’s even a problem with the surveillance footage, which shows how powerful the person who harmed me is!"He held Martha's hand and looked at her desperately. "Mom, quickly find a way to get me out of here, or I might really die inside!"Martha did not answer for a while.Johnny said again, "I heard that it all depends on Sonnet whether I’ll be sentenced and the severity of my sentence. If
Sonnet was startled, then laughed mockingly. "Mrs. Cole, you think too highly of me. If I had the ability, would I have gotten strangled by him as he begged me for money?” "I’ve thought about it, and only you have the biggest conflict with him. He strangled you at that time, and now you made him drown. You wanted to take revenge by suffocating him.” After much deliberation throughout the entire afternoon, Martha felt that Sonnet was the biggest suspect who instigated this behind the scenes.Sonnet sneered. "Didn't you say that I’m a hillbilly? How can a hillbilly have such widespread influence that I can even reach my hands into the detention center? If it were me, I would probably have him die directly. How could he be given a chance to be found and rescued by the police?"Martha choked. ‘Yes, even though she’s rich, she married a foolish husband and came from the countryside, so how could she have such a big network?’If she truly wanted to find ways to kill Johnny, she would
After he finished speaking, the others followed suit.Several of the burly men spoke so loudly that it was as though they were using a speaker. It was terrifying even though the men were not doing anything and were just surrounding them.Jessie's expression changed slightly, and she said to Johnny, "Johnny, get in the car!"Johnny immediately opened the door and got into the car, but two of those burly men walked up to the front of their car to block them.Jessie held the steering wheel and wondered if she should turn on the ignition."Johnny, it's only fair that you pay your debts. If you don't pay back today, we'll keep following you!" the burly men shouted from outside.Johnny did not know what else to do, so he turned to look at Martha and said, "Mom, do you have any funds at home? Please help me out. This is an emergency. I’ll pay you back when I have the money."Martha appeared reluctant.If she could come up with the money to save her son, she would have done so a long t
She was fuming! She used to live like a princess where everyone in the family gave her the best of everything, be it food or entertainment. What now? Everyone was counting on her to find connections to get them funds!Johnny used to treat her like she was the apple of his eye, but he showed his true colors now that he was in debt. He even wanted her to sacrifice herself to save him, which was terribly inhumane!She was annoyed that they kept mentioning Sonnet and comparing her with Sonnet, saying that Sonnet, a country bumpkin, married a better husband than her!The veins on her hand that was holding the steering wheel were popping, and she swore that she must find a powerful man so that she could win Sonnet!She drove the car back to the Coles’ mansion and noticed a few burly men surrounding the house before she got out of the car."The debt collectors came to our house?" Martha said angrily.Johnny stroked his mother's shoulder and said, "Don't worry about them. The law strictl
In the evening, Martha went to talk to Jessie. "Jess, we’re overjoyed that Johnny got released today, so let's go out for dinner with the whole family?"Jessie rolled her eyes and replied, "Does our family have money to go out for a meal? Besides, there are people outside who are after Johnny to collect his debts. Will we be able to eat in peace?""We don’t need to go to an expensive restaurant. I just want our family to get together. Although those debt collectors are surrounding us, they won’t dare to do anything to us. Let’s just pretend that they don't exist," Martha replied with a smile."Okay, I'll go get changed."Before she left the room with a smile on her face, Martha turned to Jessie and said, "Dress well. You’re the Coles’ princess. Even if our family is in trouble now, our princess is still a princess!"Jessie immediately straightened her posture with pride.She changed into a beautiful dress and put on makeup before she went out to dinner with her family.They went
As he said that, he reached out to hug Jessie. Jessie arched her legs with all that she had and hit Golding's crotch.Golding clutched his crotch and wailed. Jessie took advantage of the situation and grabbed the sheet to wrap herself up before she ran outside.When she opened the door to go out, she heard Golding chase after her. "Jessie, you b*tch! You can't run away. I’ll make sure you learn your lesson when I catch you!"Jessie was terrified. She quickened her pace and collided with a tall figure that was turning around at the corner of the corridor.A pair of strong arms held her up and prevented her from falling face down.The man was about to leave as Jessie got her footing. Jessie looked up at him and suddenly called out, "Mr. Gunn!"Hayden stopped in his tracks, turned around to look at the woman wrapped in the sheet, and frowned. She looked unfamiliar to him."Mr. Gunn, don't you remember me? I'm Sonnet's sister! We met once at my mother's birthday party!" Jessie said
It seemed that she fell quite badly as she struggled to get up but failed twice. Hayden took two steps forward, bent down, and grabbed her arm."Thank you, Mr. Gunn." Jessie looked shy and embarrassed as she thanked him in a soft voice. She eventually stood up with his help.As soon as she stood up, the sheet wrapped around her body suddenly came loose.Her exquisite curves were unobstructed.Jessie seemed to be in a panic and grabbed the sheet in a hurry.However, the more she panicked, the more she could not get it up. In the end, Hayden grabbed the sheet and handed it to her.Jessie quickly wrapped it around her body and had a beautiful blush. "Thank you..."Hayden smiled slightly and said, "You're welcome.""I’m sorry that I embarrassed myself in front of you..." Jessie put on a flustered look, wrapped the sheet around herself tightly, and continued walking.She was praying in her heart that the man behind her would ask her to stay.Jessie became a little anxious as she w
Jessie smiled at her and said, "Thank you." Then, she went to the bathroom to change.The skirt fit her, but it was a little tight at the waist and a little loose at the top.Jessie gritted her teeth as she looked at herself in the dress in the mirror.‘Lili did this on purpose because my waist isn’t as thin as hers and my chest isn’t as big as hers! She chose this dress to expose the flaws of my body!‘Forget it, I can’t be bothered to argue with her today. I’ll deal with her later.’She came out of the bathroom looking stiff.Lili chucked to herself and said, "It's not bad.""Yes, thank you, Miss Lili," Jessie said as she held back the anger in her heart.Lili waved her hand. "I won't send you off. Take care.""All good. Don’t worry about sending me off." Jessie looked at Hayden again with a humble expression and said, "I'm so grateful that you stepped in to help me today.""No worries." Hayden waved his hand and sat down on the sofa leisurely. He did not intend to see her
