Chapter 312 I Want To
Elizabeth looked at Leonard coldly. However, he couldn’t care less, as he proceeded to chug down some wine on his own.
She could tell that Leonard had probably just returned from a military trip. He had become tanner, and there were
wounds on his face.
“Jess, how can you be so foolish? You can’t let him take advantage of you like that.”
Jessica glanced at Leonard and quickly dragged Elizabeth out of the room.
“Don’t make a fuss, Lizzy. I was the one who went looking for him. He’s my only hope. So, if he wants to sleep with me, I’ll let him do so. Once he has his fill, he will give Pearl his bone marrow.”
There was a layer of disappointment in Jessica’s eyes. She was basically helpless.
Pearl’s life was of paramount importance. Her own feelings did not matter.
She had to do so even though she felt nothing for Leonard. When Leonard was mean, he was mean to the core.
She thought of that time when he had been especially nasty, and taught her a variety of shameless acts.
Yet, she could not tell a soul about that. She could only grin and bear it herself.
Elizabeth brought Jessica into her embrace. “I know how you feel, Jess. Are you sure that brat will give his bone marrow
to Pearl? He has run away once, hasn’t he?”
Jessica let out a long sigh. “I won’t let him run away ever again. I can deal with this myself, Lizzy. Don’t worry about me,
all right?”
Elizabeth stared at Jessica’s helpless figure. She longed to help her. If only my bone marrow was a match for Pearl.
However, that wasn’t the case, and that had allowed Leonard to behave like a tyrant.
Elizabeth gritted her teeth and said, “You have to learn how to protect yourself, Jess. If you need any help, look for me. I have a bit of money now. If you need money, give me a call.”
Jessica nodded. “Of course. Aren’t you on a date with Mr. Hilton? Hurry up, go back to him.”
Jessica thought of the man inside the room again. If he got into a bad mood again, he would go missing once more. By then, she would not know where to find him.

So, she ought to get back to his side. She had to make him happy so that there was hope for Pearl.
Elizabeth looked on as Jessica returned to the room in a hurry. Consumed by fury, she kicked the wall.
The action inflicted so much pain onto herself that she bent over. Matthew came to help her up. Her face scrunched up in

“Fool.” Matthew scoffed.
Then, he carried her to their private room.
Elizabeth rested her head on his chest. She was lucky to have met Matthew. Both Leonard and Matthew were rich young
men, but she could not fathom why the two were so different.
She suddenly said, “Matthew, can you talk some sense into Leonard? Pearl is a really sweet girl. If she dies, Jessica won’t have a reason to continue living‘
Mothers cared deeply about their children. If Jessica lost her child, she might truly lose the will to continue living.
Matthew knew what she was thinking. He nodded, but did not elaborate.
He heard about the arrangement between Leonard and Jessica. It was their private matter, so they should deal with it themselves.
He sat Elizabeth down on a chair. Just as he was about to remove her shoe to look at her foot, Elizabeth grabbed his hand.
“There’s no need. It doesn’t hurt now.”
He’s really attentive and caring!
Matthew sat next to her and brought her some food.
“Hurry up and dig in. After this, we still have other things to do.”
Elizabeth’s face reddened. Her thoughts went wild as she assumed that he was referring to activities in bed.
With a single glance, Matthew could tell where she had wondered off. As he ate his food elegantly, he added, “We’re not doing anything in bed. I’m talking about something else.”
Elizabeth froze. Then, she turned to glare at him.
“Matthew, you’re a big meanie! I was not thinking about that.”
Matthew leaned closer to her and whispered, “Then, why is your face so red? Don’t you want to join me in mind? I certainly want to.”
Elizabeth’s cheeks reddened even more. She gave him a shove.
“Can you stop talking?”
