A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure

Chapter 386: Do You Think Lily Can Save You?

Seeing that Leigh remains silent, Jana signals to the servant.

The servant comes up with her head lowered and reports gingerly, "Mr. Leigh, you were on a business

trip abroad those days so we didn't tell you that Miss Jessie was supposed to be on her period ..."

"But when I did the cleaning, I didn't find anything in the trash basket."

Suddenly, the servant gets chilled and trembles in fear.

But thinking of the benefits promised by Jana, she forces herself to continue, "Then I discovered that

although we delivered meals to Miss Jessie on time every day, she had been losing weight. I wonder if

Miss Jessie deliberately ate less to cause endocrine disorders..."

Before the servant can finish speaking, she is pushed away rudely.

"Are you alright?" Jana pretends to help the servant up as she asks in a concerned tone, though she

feels disgusted to do so.

She looks at Leigh, who is storming upstairs, and a cracked a smile. Obviously, she is content.

He's definitely going to break up with Jessie this time!

Screw her! She's weak!

On the third floor, Leigh kicks the door open. Jessie has just laid down because she has not been in

good spirits. She obviously does not want to see him because, upon seeing him, she immediately leaps

out of bed and head out in the direction of the dressing room.

Leigh strides over, grabs her wrist and throws her back onto the bed.

He steps forward and looks at Jessie with a gloomy expression.

It is obvious that Jessie has lost a lot of weight and her palm-sized face is even smaller.

'Let go of me!'

Jessie cannot speak, so she struggles really hard, but that's in vain.

Jessie trembles as she thinks of what she has seen outside the study that day, and she struggles even

harder.

Leigh becomes even angrier as he raises his hand to slap her.

He is outraged and has used so much strength that Jessie's head has been slapped to the side. She is

stunned.

Leigh holds her chin and forces her to look at him with a frightening expression, "Jessie, if you continue

with this hunger strike, I'll let the servant pry open your mouth and feed you!"

He sneers and continues, "Did you expect Lily to save you so you used the servant's phone to text her?

She's having a good time with her ex-boyfriend in Country Y. Do you think she will remember you

now?"

"You've done so much for your good friend, haven't you?" Leigh approaches her, "Then do you know

how miserable Chloe has become because of her? Who do you think will want her back?"

Jessie turns to look at him, but she hasn't digested what he has just says.

She does not know what has happened to Chloe.

Jessie manages to remain calm, trying to take the notebook on the bedside table and write to him.

But Leigh mistakes that she is trying to escape and grabs her hands to stop her. "Who else can you

rely on but your uncle and aunt? They can't save you! Jessie, if I get angry, I'll do anything. Maybe I'll

lock you up in a place where no one can find you. You can try!"

Seeing the horror in Jessie's eyes, Leigh sneers and says even more coldly, "Or I'll take your uncle and

aunt to a small town and leave them there to be locked up. Do you think you will be able to find them

then?"

Jessie opens her eyes wide at Leigh. She cannot believe that this is the man she has loved.

Is it an illusion?

Is she still in a nightmare?

Leigh's words are like a curse, lingering in her mind. When she looks at him again, his face starts

blurring up as tears well up in her eyes. Her heart gradually sinks.

Leigh is filled with anger. The fire of rage makes him unable to think and he only wants her to be

obedient.

When he regains his consciousness, he discovers that she is trembling, weak and pitiful.

Leigh feels a little regretful and wants to reach out to touch her.

When he is about to touch her wounds, he draws his hand back.

"Sir." The servant has long been waiting outside. Seeing him coming out, the servant hurriedly lowers

her head.

"Go take care of her wounds!" Leigh says angrily, feeling irritated.

"Yes, sir."

"Wait!" Leigh stops the servant, stares at her and says, "Be gentle. Make some nutritious food for her

later. Remember to keep your mouth shut!"

The servant trembles. "Yes, sir."

Leigh goes downstairs with an angry face. He is still mad at Jessie. Thinking of what has happened in

the hospital and her covered in wounds, he gets even angrier.

Downstairs, Jana sees Leigh and walks up to him, as if she doesn't see his anger at all. "Mr. Leigh, did NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

you get pissed off by Miss Jessie again? Well, you are so good to her but she doesn't appreciate it at

all ..."

"Are you saying that I am annoying?" Leigh stares at her and asks.

He looks gloomy and terrifying.

Jana's smile stiffens as she stutters, "I, I didn't mean that ... It's so late. Mr. Leigh, why don't you sleep

over here? The servant has prepared some stewed lotus seed soup, do you want ..."

"Shut the fuck up!" Leigh is annoyed at her and throws her away.

Jana is startled since she has been lifted up and thrown away like a merchandise.

By the time she regains her senses, Leigh has already left. He must be very angry that he didn't even

take his coat.

Jana smoothed her hair. Even though she is dissatisfied, considering that Jessie is more miserable

than her and is very likely to be abandoned by Leigh later, she cheers up again.

"Bring me the lotus seed soup. I'll drink it!" Jana snorts and goes to the dining room.

Leigh drives out of Tourmaline Community. The anger in his heart can't be suppressed anyway.

With a sullen face, he turns on his phone and dials a number.

After it gets through, Leigh says coldly, "Lily has a list. Go check the people on the list and find out who

is the most money-grubbing. As long as he agrees not to help John, I'll take any terms he offers!"

Finishing the call, he turns the car around.

Justin is in the underground laboratory, busy with his final research on Ixora.

He suddenly receives a phone call from Leigh. When he finds out that Leigh is right in front of his

house, he rolls his eyes and reluctantly goes up to open the door for Leigh.

As soon as he sees Leigh, Justin scolds, "Are you insane? If you have nothing else to do, go to your

club to take a look. Why would you come to me?"

Then he realizes that Leigh has been silent, and his face is gloomy, as if he has got too much anger.

Justin asks, "Where is all the anger from?"

"Do you have wine?" Leigh asks. He squeezes past Justin into the house, pulls open the refrigerator

and sees the beers inside. He takes one and drinks it.

He drinks on and on, as if he is drinking water.

Justin hugs his own arms while leaning against the door. He looks indifferently at Leigh and says, "Bro,

for so many years, I've never seen you like this. Even when your father died, I didn't see you so sad."

Leigh doesn't reply.

There are only two dozen canned beers in the fridge. After Leigh finishes drinking, he scrabbles around

Justin's house for more. Then he finds two bottles of red wine from the locker. He opens it and

continues drinking.
