Chapter 731: Did They Know Each Other?
Chapter 731: Did They Know Each Other?
It looked like a drop of the tear fell and left a tragically beautiful mark.
James reached his fingers with the thin callus and went for that scar-like he lost control of them. Every time he touched it, the electricity he felt at his fingertips passed it to his brain.
Suddenly, a shock of electricity split his head into two!
Ouch!
James felt two invisible hands were splitting his head to turn it into two parts and put something in it.
The sound of a baseball bat pounding on the car window was beating on James's eardrums. What he felt was magnified multiple times instantly.
James gasped and felt the insufferable pain. He asked with a hoarse voice, "Who are you?"
Jessica suddenly pulled back what was torn to cover her body. Her face turned pale.
Jessica said, "I don't know. I don't know anything. Please let me go."
James just kept staring at Jessica's scar, who really had no idea why he acted like this.
Jessica was in a hurry to get up. She shouted at Jamie, trying to get him to save her faster.
James repeated it, "Jamie?" His tone was cruel. It seemed there was a sudden lightning in his head.
Outside the car, James's bodyguards came out of the car to fight Jamie. At first, James fought them. Gradually, his bodyguards also charged over to fight.
Inside the car was incredible silence. James' painful look really intimated Jessica. She got more scared.
Instead of stroking Jessica's scar, James held his head tightly and roared like a wounded beast.
"Do you really want to kill me?"
"Why shouldn't I?"
"Your hands are shaking."
"It's the wind."
"Do you want me to help you?"
"James... Did the old James ever like Jessica?"
"Never."
James suddenly opened his eyes as fractions of memory flashed back in his mind.
Did they know each other before?
And Jessica tried to kill him?
What James saw were just flashbacks. But he was agitated, thinking of how Jessica raised the gun at him. He said, "You tried to kill me?"
Jessica shook her head in shock. She said, "I don't know what you're talking about. Just let me go."
James said, "Why do you pretend you don't know me?" James finally understood why he was fatally attracted to Jessica.
Jessica answered, "I'm not pretending anything. I really don't know you. My boyfriend is here to pick me up. I want to go out."
Jessica's voice got smaller and smaller. She was nothing in front of James. She was terrified to make James mad.
"Jessica Clifford!"
Jessica's pupils suddenly got large hearing James called her full name. She said, "You..."
James answered, "I didn't plan to let you go before; neither do I know."
Before James figured out what had happened, he would not let Jessica go.
Jessica begged, "No! Please don't! I beg you to let me go. I don't know you. I really don't."
At the second, the bodyguard talked on the radio, "Sir, we have caught Jamie Winter. What do you want us to do?"
Jessica suddenly stopped talking. She had no family left. Her brother was dead. Her mother and sister cast her out. Even her grandpa, who was the dearest to her, died too. His father passed away because of heart failure. She really had no one to rely on except Jamie Winter.
Without Jamie, Jessica couldn't think of any reason to keep living.
She suddenly got up with a force that came to her from nowhere. Her dress was torn apart, and her breast was revealed. She couldn't help crying, saying, "Don't hurt Jamie. I'll do anything you ask. I don't want anything to happen to him. I won't!"
A woman cried because of a man.
James knew what a woman's tear stood for.
Love!
She loved Jamie Winter!
Jessica's tear fell on James's heart like sulfuric acid.
James had a soft spot for a woman who tried to shoot him!
James couldn't tell if the flashbacks he saw were all true. But he was agitated that Jessica was in love with someone else. That was true!
"Really? Anything?" James was furious and thought of a twisted idea. He took off his coat and wrapped Jessica's body, saying, "Put it on!"
Jessica couldn't stop crying, but she did what was told.
Jessica was too skinny. She lost so much weight since James saw her in his flashbacks. When he saw Jessica wear his baggy coat, he had the delusion for one second that he must really love her in the past.
Then James couldn't help reaching his hands to help Jessica button up. He did it like he was her boyfriend.
Then James checked her and made sure not an inch of skin was revealed. He said, "Go out with me and tell that man you've sold your body to me."
Jessica immediately refused, "No." She frowned because what James asked her to say was disgusting. She couldn't say it, let alone the man closest to her.
"No?" James's smile was cruel, and he said to the walkie-talkie, "Break that man's leg."
"No! Don't harm him!"Jessica jumped over to push away James's walkie-talkie, "I'll tell him!"
Jessica's eyes were still red. She started crying again. She felt the world was being mean to her. It must be that she was too arrogant before. She upset God, and these people were sent to punish her.
James said, "Why do you start crying again?" James wished he could make Jessica stop crying. But he was afraid to intimidate her.
James had feared. How surprising was that! He was taken back by Logan from the orphanage. His worst ambition was to take Logan's place. So he trained himself to be cruel. So many have been dead or injured because of him.
He feared nothing to gain fame and wealth.
But he was afraid to intimidate Jessica.
James's annoying voice made Jessica at a loss. Her crying was choked in the throat. She couldn't cry nor not.
Jessica kicked the door open, grabbed Jessica's wrist to take her out.
Outside, the car was a mess from the fighting. There were bloodstains on the ground.
Jessica saw them too. She was anxious to find Jamie in the crowd.
It wasn't hard to spot.
James's bodyguards held one of his arms and forced him to kneel.
Jessica hurried to check on him. Seeing that Jamie wasn't hurt, she looked changed from being tense to get relieved.
Jessica was the apple of her brother's eye since she was a little girl. She smiled when she felt happy and cried when sad. She never deliberately hid how she felt.
In the second, the change in her look was seen by James.
He wanted to tear her smile apart!
