Revenge Against My Ex-Fiance Chapter 21
In the hospital room, Jessica's phone suddenly rang, causing her expression to sour as she glanced at the screen. Since her mother, Rebecca, was napping, Jessica chose to step outside to take the call. With a determined stride, she left the room, pausing for a moment to contemplate before finally answering the phone."What's going on?" she inquired sharply.Nicholas hesitated briefly, taken aback by her tone. Her continued hostility startled him. He began to wonder if Sonia's suggestion about Jessica's involvement in the situation held some truth."Was it you? Did you leak the information to the media?" he interrogated. Jessica removed the phone from her ear and gazed at it, perplexed by his accusation. She had been completely unaware of any recent developments due to her accident, and the television in her mother's VIP room remained off during their stay.Placing the phone back to her ear, Jessica inquired, "I have no idea what you're talking about. What news?" Her confusion was evid

In the opulent surroundings of Justin's mansion, he is seated on the living room couch, engrossed in the unfolding news. The day's events, which had recently transpired and were impacting their company, had reached his ears. Alfred, Justin's confidant and informant within the company, had urgently reached out to brief him on the heightened concern among shareholders.Expressing his disbelief, Justin muttered, "How could Nicholas be so careless as to expose his personal troubles to the public eye?" The revelation that Jessica's heart had been broken, while she was in the hospital, weighed heavily on his thoughts. Unaware of this aspect until now, Justin's empathy for her compelled him to take swift action. He promptly instructed Kelvin to investigate and gather information about Jessica and her mother's well-being.A sudden knock interrupted Justin's thoughts, prompting him to cast a glance at the door. Despite his exhaustion, the realization that he was the sole individual responsible

As Justin strolled past Jessica, he casually picked up the bottle and glass from the table."Let's just overlook that; a hungry man must satisfy his cravings one way or another," he quipped, proceeding directly to the kitchen.Jessica, being a medical doctor, instinctively trailed behind. "Consuming such a substantial amount of alcohol isn't conducive to your health," she cautioned.With a sigh, he halted, pivoting to face her. Holding up the bottle in his hand, he explained, "It's just wine, not alcohol." Jessica took the bottle from him, asserting, "No, it still contains some alcohol; let's verify, shall we?" Justin stared at her in amazement. Who was this woman, and where was the Jessica he knew? The last time he witnessed such determination was during his panic attack. A smile crossed his face as he reminisced about that moment."Yes, here it is! It mentions 12% alcohol content," she held the bottle to his eye level, indicating where it was written. "That's an excessive amount of

Jessica fixed her gaze on Justin, comprehending why he opposed her leaving his house at such an hour. In fact, she had already decided on her way to his house that returning to the hospital that night would be impossible given the late hour of her arrival.She had tested him with her recent actions, and his reaction didn't disappoint. Deciding to continue playing along, Jessica furrowed her brows and questioned, "Why, if I may ask?""Because it's already quite late, I can't allow you to leave. You'll have to spend the night here, in my home," he responded gradually, as if explaining to a child, making an effort to convey understanding."I don't think I can sleep in the same house with you? I just don't think I can do that. Please, let me go; it's not that late, just 11 PM," Jessica attempted to step around him and head for the door. Justin blocked her path again, his expression turning into a frown."I apologize for what happened earlier. I shouldn't have kissed you, especially withou

Entering the hospital, Jessica's mind remained preoccupied with Justin's words. If she was truly going to attend his grandmother's birthday party, she realized she ought to bring a gift. Reflecting on the last time she saw Mrs. Hemsworth, Jessica recalled a dinner at the Hemsworth mansion with Nicholas and the entire family.Nicholas had explained that Mrs. Hemsworth insisted he bring Jessica along. When Nicholas mentioned Jessica's busy schedule and inability to attend on the originally planned day, Mrs. Hemsworth rescheduled the dinner to accommodate Jessica's availability. It was a gesture that reflected the depth of Mrs. Hemsworth's affection for Jessica.With the news of Nicholas breaking things off with her circulating widely, Jessica pondered how Mrs. Hemsworth would react to the situation and what opinion she might form about her.Questions swirled in her mind. Did they already know that Justin, their long-lost heir, had returned? If so, how would Mrs. Hemsworth feel about the

Nicholas sat behind his desk in his office at Hemsworth Global Company, having successfully removed all news related to his bad breakup with Jessica and his affair with her cousin. It had required hefty payments to various media outlets. Now, Nicholas recognized he had one more task ahead.Tomorrow, during his grandmother's birthday ceremony, he would be announced as the heir of Hemsworth Global Company. The thought alone filled Nicholas's heart with immense joy, but a problem loomed. Earlier in the day, during a meeting with shareholders, they concluded that merely removing the news from the media wasn't sufficient. They instructed Nicholas to issue an official statement stating that he had ended things with Jessica, emphasizing that it was entirely her decision. Alternatively, they suggested that Jessica herself release the statement, believing it would strengthen the claim and make the breakup narrative more convincing.The shareholders insisted that Nicholas pay Jessica whatever

Her son, Mr. Hemsworth, arrived early to extend birthday wishes before the evening's planned birthday celebration.Upon reaching the mansion, a place Mr. Hemsworth had called home many years prior to his marriage to Justin's late mother and his subsequent acquisition of his own residence, he was warmly received by the chauffeur, Mr. Ken. Spotting Mr. Hemsworth's car, Mr. Ken promptly abandoned his current task and rushed over. Opening the back seat door for Mr. Hemsworth, who disembarked with a stern and imposing demeanor, he took a moment to survey his surroundings.In his early sixties, he remained remarkably impressive, standing at a towering 6'2" with a robust physique that defied his age. His commanding presence easily deceived observers, as he could effortlessly pass for a man in his early forties.Justin mirrored his father in appearance, inheriting not only his striking features but a

Jessica glanced down at her attire in surprise. While she recognized it might not be the most luxurious choice for the grand party they were about to attend, she considered it reasonably presentable. Justin, however, held a different perspective.He wasn't content with normal. Tonight, as the center of attention, he wanted both himself and his companion to look their absolute best.Justin was a man with a meticulous taste for the finest attire, who exclusively adorned himself in designer clothes even while at home talk more of when he went for events."I understand this may not be the perfect dress for the occasion, but it would still suffice," Jessica explained, looking up at Justin with a furrowed brow.Justin, however, shook his head firmly and declared,"No, it won't," scrutinizing her clothes carefully."Does that mean you'll go alone? Without me? I really wouldn't mind," Jessica said, releasing a short sigh of relief. The thought of meeting the Hemsworth family had left her tense

A month later, at the Hemsworth family mansion, everyone is seated at the round dining table, having a family dinner. Nicholas's health was totally restored. He had also helped the police in apprehending Kennedy and his men, who were already behind bars. Sonia had also been prosecuted, and her license was revoked due to her crimes.Nicholas's last request before being prosecuted for his own crimes was to have dinner with everyone in the family, a request they all had granted. Everyone tried to put on a smiling face, even though their hearts ached on the inside.The energy in the room was really low. Nicholas, noticing this, raised a glass and clanked it with a spoon to get everyone's attention as he cleared his throat. All sets of eyes were averted towards him as everyone eagerly waited to hear what he would say.Nicholas smiled brightly as his eyes swept across the faces at the dining table, acknowledging each of them in an endearing manner.

Deep in thought, Justin drove to Jessica's mother's apartment. It had been two weeks since his discharge from the hospital.Two days after leaving the hospital, under persistent pressure from his grandmother and stepmother concerning Nicholas, Justin reached a decision. He chose to implore Jessica to perform the surgery on Nicholas, solely to prevent him from dyinf.This decision didn't signify forgiveness. In fact, he adamantly declined to visit Nicholas in the hospital. Fearful of what he might do to him as he remained vengeful and resentful, harboring deep anger for all he had endured at Nicholas' hands.The problem, however, was that Jessica had refused to treat Nicholas. In fact, they had engaged in an argument that led to her moving out of his apartment. All attempts to persuade her to reconsider proved fruitless. Since then, he had been trying to reach Jessica through her mother, with whom she had sought refuge.Surprisingly, when he called her mother that morning to inquire a

Having recovered from the shock of Jessica's stern attitude, Nicholas looked at her with pleading eyes. Determined to make it work, he ensured everything he said seemed to come directly from his heart. Although he had mentally rehearsed this moment repeatedly, he didn't anticipate the scene playing out so soon.When he asked his father to help him plead with Jessica the previous day, he hadn't expected his wish to be granted. However, knowing he would see Jessica one day, he prepared ahead of time. Now, she stood before him. This was his opportunity, and he promised himself to make the most of it.Rising from the bed, his gaze fixed on Jessica, Nicholas's hand was cuffed to the bed, limiting his movement. Despite the constraint, he had enough room to do what he wanted. Jessica's eyes narrowed with hatred as she witnessed his eyes clouding with tears.Scoffing, she remarked, "I am listening. Say what you want to say; I need to be on my way soon." She eagerly waited for him to beg her

Mr. Hemsworth arrived at the hospital with his mother and wife an hour later and stormed in the direction of Nicholas' ward. He had informed the hospital earlier that day to update him once his son woke up. The hospital was heavily guarded, as two sons of the most powerful and influential man in London, whose lives were still in imminent danger, were in different wards.For all Mr. Hemsworth knew, the culprit who had shot his second son was still at large. Until apprehended, Nicholas and even Justin were not safe. Who knows, the person trying to kill Nicholas might be attempting to cover up a dark past. Justin had mentioned that Nicholas was working with a cult. Could it be they wanted to silence Nicholas for good to prevent him from confessing to his crimes and thereby mention their involvement in money laundering and the attempt on Justin's life?Whatever it was, he would hear it now that his son was awake.As soon as they entered Nicholas' ward, Mr. Hemsworth motioned for the gua

The doctor suddenly remembered he had given the nurse a task earlier and asked her to inform him as soon as it was completed. That had to be what she had come to tell him about.He corked a brow up and asked curiously, "Are the test results out?" Laura nodded in response to his question. She wore a grave expression on her face, which was really unsettling to Mr. Hemsworth, who was clueless about what was going on."What test results? Can someone explain to me what exactly is going on here?" he snapped in frustration.The doctor immediately felt the need to explain before things escalated any further. "I am sorry, Mr. Hemsworth, for keeping you in the dark. The thing is, in this hospital, it is standard procedure to conduct a full check-up on our patients to ensure they are medically fit," he exchanged glances with the nurse and continued, "we ran some tests on Nicholas, and it appears the results are out," he concluded.Mr. Hemsworth was a little tense. The girl's reaction hinted t

Mr. Hemsworth stormed into the hospital an hour later with his bodyguards, looking as ferocious and angry as ever. No one dared to stop him; just the sight of him alone was very intimidating. The security stationed at the entrance had to make way for him after seeing how he had been greeted by the policemen. They already knew who he was; if the police, sent to protect the hospital, had allowed him to gain entrance at this crucial time when security was heightened, then they felt they had no choice but to do the same.Nicholas had been brought to the hospital in his disguised state, so the security men had no clue who the person being protected in the ward was. The hospital kept his identity a secret, and only people who had the right to know due to a role they had to play were informed. Seeing Mr. Hemsworth storm in, the security men gave each other a knowing look; whoever was being protected must be related to him in some way.Once inside, Mr. Hemsworth stood still as his ferociou

The man who had accidentally knocked Nicholas down immediately alighted from his car. Upon reaching where Nicholas lay in a pool of his blood, being washed away by the soft patter of rain falling, he gasped in shock but immediately recollected himself. "Is he dead?" he thought in fright as he fell to his knees beside Nicholas."Hello? Hello?" he said as he shoved Nicholas lightly.No response!"Oh my God! What have I done?" the man cried in fear. His heart was thumping heavily against his chest. With trembling hands, he brought out his phone and dialed 999, London's emergency contact."I knocked down a man; he needs help!" he cried as soon as the call connected, staring down nervously at Nicholas.The road was a lonely one. He contemplated carrying Nicholas into his car and taking him to a nearby hospital. He glanced at Nicholas' unconscious body again, and a thought crossed his mind, one that chilled him to the bone, causing his jaw to drop as his eyes widened."What if he is dead?

As soon as Jessica turned, a slight frown etched her face. Standing behind her was Dr. Martins, the same man she had heard from Nicholas, accused her of having a hand in the attack on her husband.When Dr. Martins found out few days ago, just like everyone else, that Jessica was Dr. Alexandra, he was absolutely gobsmacked. He wondered how that could be and thought back to the day Jessica was acting a little nonchalant in his office, realizing it was because she already had a solution to her husband's predicament.He had been scared to approach her due to the way he had treated her in the past—all the snide and sarcastic remarks he made in her presence hadn't gone unnoticed. From the beginning, he had made it clear he really didn't like her, but Jessica always responded to his ill treatment with kindness. To him, she was just acting, being the badass actress she was, which even infuriated him more.Pondering on the next steps to take, he had summoned the courage to meet Dr. Alexandra,

Sonia was petrified, visibly shaken. Just who is this man, she wondered? The seconds it took for the man to respond felt like a million years to her. Her heart kept thumping against her ribcage."Who am I?" the man asked mockingly as he snorted a laugh. Sonia's eyes widened.Hearing the man speak again intensified her fear. She knew she had heard that voice before, but to whom did it belong?She cried pleadingly, "Please don't hurt me. Whoever you are, please don't harm me.""Hahaha, you should have thought of that when you decided not to keep to your own end of the bargain. Now move, slowly," he snapped angrily, pointing the gun more aggressively towards her as he motioned for her to go in the direction he wanted.That was when it hit her!"Is it you? What are you...wait, how did you know where I live?" she asked, trying to mask her fear."How the tables have turned. It wasn't difficult to find you at all. All I had to do was a little investigation. You said you would find me and kil
