"Do you know Joyce Lu? If not for me, would they get married? "
Grace," ..."
"Grace, you must know that, right? Tell me. "
"Grace, please tell me. I've been together with you for months. Am I jealous and narrow-minded? I'm
just curious. "
Seeing that Grace looked awkward, Jessie took her hands and begged her. She was sure that she
knew the truth.
Seeing that she still didn't say anything, Jessie's face darkened. She said coldly, "since I married into
the Lan family, I have taken you as my closest person. After we moved here, only you are willing to
care about me and take care of me. I know you've already taken Joyce as your lady for a long time, but
I, a woman who suddenly broke in, despised not only Mark, but also you. You... "
"My lady, it's not true."
"That's not true, but what's it! You know clearly that I was forced to marry him. I don't even know him. I
just want to know more about him, but you are not willing to... "
"My lady, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but we don't know the process of these things, so we dare
not say anything."
She knew that Grace was brought back by Mark to be his confidant, but with this trust, she could not
hurt anyone around him.
What's more, there were a lot of things that Grace did not know and she was not the kind of person
who liked to gossip about her masters.
She didn't know how to answer this question.
Jessie looked at Grace with her almond eyes suspiciously. Was she afraid to say anything? Or they
didn't want her to know at all.
Grace felt uncomfortable being stared at by Jessie. She thought that the expression in Mark's eyes was
frightening enough, but she didn't expect that the lady was a hard nut to crack.
After a while, Jessie drew back her gaze and sighed.
"Well, I won't make it difficult for you. You can go to work now."
Hearing that, Grace said, "My lady, Master and Joyce will never be together. You don't need to care
about a dead woman."
Dead?
Jessie's eyes were full of doubts. She was still alive. How could Grace say she was dead?
'What kind of big secret is it?'
The next morning, when Jessie got up and faced the cold bed on the side of her, she was not surprised
or angry at all.
Seeing that Mark ran out of the house in a hurry, she had guessed that he would not come back.
However, she was curious about the person on the phone. Who was that.
A name kept popping up in her mind -- Joyce Lu!
She combed her messy hair, lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
After breakfast, Jessie said, "Grace, you don't have to prepare lunch. Ask the driver to get the car for
me. I want to go out."
"Get out?" With a nervous look on her face, Grace asked, "my lady, where are you going? I can call
master and ask his opinion. "
Jessie sneered. Why did she call to ask about that? Did he still remember her?
"I just want to go to the school. You can ask the driver to find a bodyguard to follow me. As for Mark,
you can just report to him. He doesn't care anyway. "
"What?"
Her straightforward words sounded like jealousy, but seeing the expression on her face as if she didn't
care it at all, embarrassed Grace.
Grace dare not say anything, let alone others.
When Jessie got on the car and left, Grace called Mark. However, no matter how many times she
called him, the phone was either not at the service area, or it was even powered off. At last, she had no
choice but to give up calling him.
An hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of the X University. When she was about to get off the
car, her phone rang.
"Jessie, I'm Blake!"
When she heard Blake's voice again, Jessie reacted exactly the same as Ivy, shocked and then angry.
"What's up?" Her tone was cold and disgusting.
"I want to have a talk with you. Are you available now?"
"What else can we talk about. Besides, I'm busy. " She refused in a straightforward way, which showed
that she disliked him.
"Why do you hate me so much? We have been together for so many years. Don't you even have time
to go out for a cup of coffee? "
Hearing that, Jessie didn't say a word. She didn't hate him so much, but she just couldn't understand
why he used her to set her up!
She knew how much they are good friends for so many years. If he knew, why would he do that!
Why did he put all the blame on her now that he had done it.
She didn't like to explain or force others to do something. Anyway, the truth was unchanged and she
could take all the responsibilities. But her attitude towards him couldn't be changed.
Although Blake was not a fool, he could feel that she did not want to see him very much from her voice.
But when he thought of what he saw at the banquet one day, he could not bear it.
He didn't want Jessie to be treated as a fool by others all the time.
After thinking for a while, he said, "I want to talk with you about the Lin Group's shares."
"Lin Group's shares?" Hearing that, Jessie's eyes brightened. She thought for a while and felt that there
must be something wrong, so she asked in a low voice, "about the company's affairs, shouldn't you go
to see Darren? What do you want to talk to me? "
"You are the biggest shareholder of the Lin Group. I'm going to return the company to your father, so
you have to sign all the documents."
Hearing that, Jessie was immersed in thought for a while. When they made an appointment for a time,
she got off the car and went to school.
Jessie took her homework and asked her professor for some questions. When the time was right, she
left the school and went to the appointed place.
They were at a cafe in the commercial center. When Jessie arrived, Blake was already there waiting for
her.
Before Jessie got off the car, she found an excuse to let the driver and bodyguard go away. Then she
entered the cafe.
"Here you are. I have ordered your favorite cappuccino. "
After saying "thank you", Jessie pulled out a chair and sat down. "Are you really willing to return the
company to Darren Lin?" Jessie asked directly.
She didn't mention the two words "we" and "father", because in her heart, though Darren was her
father, he had never taken responsibility for he. The company belonged to Darren Lin, not theirs. She
didn't want it.
"I never wanted to take possession of your family's property. I did it before in order to revenge on
Darren, but later I thought that even if I won the company and made him lose everything, your mother
and brother's life was not guaranteed. That's why I'd like to transfer the shares to you. I want you to
take over the company of Darren Lin, so that you won't be pressed and controlled by him. "
When Blake was just ten years old, his father had been serving for the Lin family. He had been
watching how Darren Lin tortured Jessie and her mother. He also knew that in Jessie's heart, the two
people who mattered most were her mother and brother. For their sake, she did everything she wanted
regardless of what she would sacrifice.
So he always felt sorry for her and wanted to help her out of the hell.
He realized that he was wrong when he thought she could lead a comfortable life after taking control of
the Lin Group.
That was not what she wanted.
