Sean Jessop squinted at me and said expressionlessly, “I can rebuild here, and I can destroy it, depending on you.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was stunned. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Then the phone rang. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked down and saw Daniell Cook on it. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked at the time, it was noon. Usually at this time, he would ask me to have lunch at the company. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I looked up at Sean Jessop and thought about the orphanage just now. I didn’t know how to answer the phone for a moment before turning it off. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean Jessop didn’t say anything. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
When the phone stopped ringing, I asked, “What do you want to do?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I don’t want to do anything. My grandpa is missing you.” Sean Jessop said lightly. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t believe his words. I refuted, “How can it be! Didn’t you tell grandpa that I killed Molly Carter’s child and you were breaking up with me?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean Jessop loved Molly Carter so much that he decided I had hurt her. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How could such a good opportunity not be exploited? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t believe it! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But Sean Jessop looked at me with deep eyes and said, “What grandpa knows is that you went abroad for further study and just came back the day before yesterday so I’m going to pick you up tonight.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
His words stunned me for half a minute. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
What was the meaning of this? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
In other words, James Jessop didn’t know I was in prison at all? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“Why?” I stared at Sean Jessop. I had no idea what he wanted to do. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I found myself more and more unable to understand him! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean Jessop raised his hand and laid it on my hand. He said, “As a businessman, the most important thing is to keep promise. Since I promised you to be Mrs. Jessop, I will not break it.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Clearly it was midsummer, but when his hand touched me, I felt cold and piercing! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
At this moment, what came to my mind was everything in the prison! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How could I possibly cooperate with the culprit who killed my child? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How could I possibly become Mrs. Jessop again? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“President Jessop, since you love Molly Carter, why do you get entangled with me? I believe that as long as you tell your grandpa about my imprisonment and I hurt her, he will never recognize me as his granddaughter-in-law again.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Actually, I was not willing to admit that I hurt Molly Carter. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But if I didn’t admit it, I was afraid I would be imprisoned by Sean Jessop all my life. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Sean Jessop’s big palm held my hand tightly. He stared at me with deep black eyes, saying, “Don’t it just let you go?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Hearing this, I began to sweat. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t want it! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I didn’t want to be a plaything he held in his hand! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“I’m not going!” I flung Sean Jessop’s hand away! <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I was about to open the door and get out of the car but I heard the man behind me say, “Guess how long will it take me to close a small company like Universe Design Co. LTD?” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Hearing this, I stopped my hand on the door handle. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
It suddenly dawned on me that Sean Jessop and Daniell Cook were not people of one class at all. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
How could they possibly stand together and talk? <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
The reason Sean Jessop compromised that day was that he wanted to pinch me to death until he destroyed all my life. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
But he knew my weakness. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I could ignore the orphanage but I couldn’t ignore Daniell Cook. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
He was an outsider. I couldn’t drag him down and ruin everything he had worked for. <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I sat back in my seat, lowered my eyes and made up my mind, “I’ll go.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
