Her Affectionate Revenge ( His Cold Prey) Chapter 9
Jessica pursed her lips, thinking if she should tell her boss or not. Thinking about how her younger ones were at home while others were going to school, she decided to give it a try. At least, it won't do any harm asking him.If not that she had already paid for the bills and her father's medical, she would have given them that money first. But she just paid for the bills."Boss, I… I wanted to ask…" Jessica stuttered. She was afraid of the outcome of what she was about to ask."Jessica, if it's about money, it's not going to work" her boss cuts in.Looking perplexed at the way that man could sense whenever someone wants to ask for money, Jessica just bites hard on her lips."Jessy, it's not like I don't want to help you or something. It's just that I did a lot of expenses for the shop and my family. I can't release any money today or even three days from now because I just spent a huge sum on the business, ``he explained.He sighed loudly before leaving the perplexed Jessica who alr

When Jessica got to the cafe for her afternoon shift, she was looking dull and dispirited. At the interview today, not only was she mocked by her fellow candidates but even the supervisors were giving her disapproving stares.She knew only a miracle would make her pass the interview. She knew that if it was in terms of qualifications alone, she was more than qualified. The issue was as they always say about the Turner Group.Everyone around knows that as much as the Turner Group values qualifications, they also value outward presentation in terms of fashion.Although Jessica was qualified, she might be disqualified because of her dressing this morning. Not only were the clothes worn out, but it was also rumpled!"Why are you so gloomy?" Her boss asked, looking at her.He had heard from the other girl that Jessica had gone for an interview today. Although Jessica was a very hardworking girl, he won't hinder her progress if she finds another job. He was praying for her to get a better j

Edwin was in a very happy mood as he waited for his friends in their exclusive room, his hands cuddling a slim but busty girl who was sitting on his lap.Not long, his friends came and Edwin ordered drinks. His plan was finally coming to fruition. But he was still baffled that she was highly qualified."What's the occasion, dude? You are so happy today" Jay said, staring at Edwin.Some flimsy-dressed girls walked into the room and each positioned themselves on the laps of Edwin's friends."I am indeed happy because my plan will soon be fruitful. And for the first reward, enjoy your bitches" he said, smiling. He poured himself a glass of wine and gulp it down."Did you mean you finally got the girl?" One of them asked."She is as good as being in my palms right now," Edwin said with a sly smile on his face." Dude, tell us what happened and stop playing with our thoughts"" The thing is that same girl applied for a job in my company"" Wait, what? Wasn't she just a coffee girl?" Rick a

The next morning Jessica woke up early to prepare for the new job. She quickly ate the sumptuous breakfast made by her mother.As they sat down at the dining table, her eyes were on her siblings who hadn't resumed classes yet because of the tuition fee."Jessica, take this lunch box with you and make sure you eat your food," her mother said." Okay, mom. Take care of yourself and daddy. And these two little rascals, don't go out of the house" Jessica said, kissing her parents and siblings." We won't, Jessy. I will prepare your favorite juice!"" And I will prepare your favorite cookies"Jessica smiled at the twins' enthusiasm. She knew they were acting brave so she wouldn't blame herself too much. But she can't help it. It hurts to see her younger ones at home when others are going to school.Jessica gave them a big smile before turning around to leave in a hurry out of the house.She didn't have money for a taxi so she followed the bus which took her close to the company.

Jessica walked dejectedly to her office. It was a beautiful enclosed compartment just beside the CEO's office. She sat down in her chair, dropping the documents in her hands.Her mind went back to her boss's cold demeanor. He must still be angry with her, that's why he sounded cold towards her. She was grateful he didn't let anyone know what transpired between them.She wondered if she should send him an apology mail. But he said he doesn't like mixing office work and personal matters. How was she supposed to apologize to him if she can't even say it in the office?The only place Jessica can meet her boss was the office. But she can't even apologize here."Hmmm, I should focus my attention on these documents so I can finish them before lunchtime" she muttered to herself.Jessica delved into the documents on the desk first. Fortunately, these jobs are areas of expertise. If not for her knowledge of computers, she was sure she would spend more than a day analyzing all these documents.H

Jessica was about to tell Edwin what she used the allowance for when he waved her to stop."Let it be. You must have your reasons. But then I can't continue to condone this attitude. You have to look for a way to get new clothes because we will be going on a business trip in the next two days""Bus-in-ess mee-ting? T-wo days?" Jessica stuttered. How would she be able to get new clothes in two days?" Yes. That's the main purpose of the wardrobe allowance so you can get yourself ready for a business trip. Now, you can leave to sort out the documents I sent to you" Edwin said, dismissing the dumbfounded Jessica.All through the day, Jessica was moody and filled with different thoughts. She wondered what she would do.Jessica decided to look for a solution after work. She concentrated on the job given to her by her boss. She was so focused on her computer that she didn't notice the presence of someone."Is your boss in?"Jessica reluctantly looked up at the person asking. Her eyes met a s

Angela came out from nowhere to congratulate her for being engaged to Edwin. She hugged her tightly."Girl! You're getting married!" Angela squealed. "You know, I totally knew about the engagement and I shipped you guys! I gave him all the assurance he needed! You should have seen him. He was a sorry mess." Jessica glared playfully at her. "Oh so you knew and you refused to tell me? I knew something was fishy about the sudden request to go out."Edwin laughed and pulled her closer to his side. Before she could refute it, he turned her and kissed her deeply. Jessica's face went a very dark shade of red and she didn't know where to keep her face after being kissed like that in public."Pervert." She muttered."Baby, your husband to be? You call me a pervert? Do you know what this pervert can do to you?" He whispered. "I could make you scream, and in a good way.""Ahhh!" Jessica screamed and pushed him away, only to have him pull her back. Edwin held her tightly as if she was going to d

Edwin was recovering really fast, and Jessica was happy being around him. Being around him and the kids together made her feel like a wife.She would prepare breakfast in the morning, bathe the kids, feed them, and prepare them for school. Sometimes, Angela came to pick them up. Sometimes, she took them herself.Levi had been discharged but he was still recovering from the internal injuries. Jessica continued paying him because he had only entered that state because of the kids.Friday before the weekend, Edwin watched Jessica perform all her duties and his heart fluttered. He couldn't take his mind off the fact that she cared about him enough to stay beside him in the hospital, refusing to let him be touched by anyone else except her. She even learned to clean his wounds just so that she could take complete care of him."Why are you staring at me?" Jessica inquired. They were alone at home. "Isn't it time to change my bandages? I've bathed and they have not changed for three days al

She knew that it was a huge step toward their coming back together.Jessica was at the pharmacy, collecting his drugs and their prescription. Edwin refused to remain in bed.

So while Jessica was busy downstairs, he packed their stuff with his one hand and went down to meet her, pulling the bag behind him.Once she sighted him coming, she quickly went to collect the bag from him."I told you to wait!" She scolded. "Why so stubborn?"Edwin chuckled. "I can walk. I'm not crippled. And, I'm too e

Babe, have you showered or changed since the accident?" Edwin asked."I couldn't leave your side," Jessica answered sheepishly."Well, I'm awake now. Go and shower and change and then you can return to stay with me." Edwin said. Jessica smiled. She went into the second part of the ward without much thought. Not long after, she returned with a different cloth."Have you had your changing materials the whole time?" Edwin demanded weakly.Jessica nodded."So why didn't you just change?"Jessica ignored his question. Couldn't he understand that she couldn't leave him for once Edwin tapped the space beside him. "Come lay with me." Jessica didn't waste any time. She was very exhausted too and knowing that he had survived the gunshot was able to keep her at rest.She lay beside him, careful not to touch any of the bandages or the IVs. Edwin however did not care and pulled her closer to his side.The two of them fell deep asleep. Each one takes out their exhaustion from being apart for such

Once they arrived at the hospital, Jessica watched as the nurses ran out with a stretcher where they carefully placed Edwin. They wheeled him directly into the theatre to prepare him for the operation. Jessica was invited in by the doctor before the operation could commence."Miss, I just want you to sign the documents for the operation and perform the transfer of funds." The doctor said, "There's no need to ask if you want it to be carried out because I can see that you will do anything to save your husband."Jessica tore a check from her checkbook in her purse and signed it. "Here, fill in the amount that covers the entire treatment. I just want him to be fine."The doctor collected the check and the signed paper from her. He ushered her to the waiting room while he went in to perform the surgery.Jessica didn't sit. She was pacing the hallway to and fro. Occasionally, she would make a silent prayer for his safety. Then she would sigh and begin to cry all over again. Her heart was b

It was morning already. Jessica's eyes were wide open. She hadn't slept a wink all night. She didn't just refuse to sleep, she couldn't sleep. As much as her heart was calmer, she still couldn't digest the fact that it was getting to 24 hours since she last saw her children.Edwin was busy making calls here and there, trying to use every one of his influence to find them.He received a call from his private detective."Hello, Mr. Turner.""Mr. Detective. Tell me you've found them." Edwin said tiredly. "Eh.. we found the location. I'll send them to you. I've also assigned some officers to get there as well. I will also ask you to be careful because that's the outskirts of the city. Anyone who could kidnap kids and take them there could be a maniac.""Alright detective. I'll be on my way right now." Edwin said.As soon as Edwin dropped the call, his phone beeped with a text message from the detective. Reading the location, he went to find Jessica in the kitchen fetching water to drink.

In no time, Jessica heard a knock on the door. She quickly ran to check. She found Edwin at the door. The man pulled her into a hug the moment he saw her. Jessica began to cry. Her heart shattered even more. The thought that her kids might be in trouble was a huge problem. "Edwin, my children! My babies! My babies are missing." She cried. "Find them! Find them!" Edwin hugged her. "I'm sorry, let me inform my investigator." Edwin dialed the private investigator immediately. He stepped out to speak to him. "Mr. Turner. I'm quite surprised to hear from you now. I have done what you asked me to do." The man said. "Not about that. Look, my kids are missing. I need you to help me find them." Edwin said. "I'm a computer hacker and software investigator, anything that happens in the physical world is not my job. You need to inform the police or hire a private detective." The man said. "Look, I need you to help me track the driver's number. I will report to the police, yes. But I want
