"Cut the crap. Hurry up." With a grim face, Mark looked as if he were holding a gun against his back.
"Nothing suspicious. What on earth do you want me to investigate?" In the middle of the night, he was
woken up by a call from Mark. Left the warm bed, he came to see what had happened here. Not only
sleepy, but he had to bear the bad temper of Mark because Jessie was missing.
"Check the phone calls from 8:30pm to 9:00pm."
"Yes." When John was doing what Mark told him to do, he complained about Jessie for hundreds of
times.
After a long while...
"I got it. This is the only phone number during the time period you have mentioned. This is space
phone number."
"Space phone number?" Mark stared straight at the computer. His hands clenched into fists. He didn't
know how nervous he was at the moment.
Jessie was missing, her cellphone was powered off. Even the incoming call was also a space phone
number, there was no any data could be found...
All of this was like a mystery, making people uneasy.
"John, can you find out which base station was used to send this space number?" It suddenly occurred
to Mark that the space number was also sent from mobile phone or computer to the base station set up
in space by transmitter, and then the data would be changed and transmitted to the dialed number by
the base station, thus the originally number would be changed, making it impossible for others to locate
the number.
If they could find out where this space station was, then they would be able to know who made the call
more easily.
However, very few people could use a number to get the accurate information of the base station. Even
if they did, it was difficult to find the exact location where the signal was from.
"Mark, what happened?" Jeffery asked. Mark had been acting unusual the whole day.
"I guess that something bad happened to Jessie."
"Something bad..." John looked at him in astonishment. He knew that there must be something wrong
with Jessie, or Mark wouldn't have called him in the middle of the night. "Are you sure that space
number is suspicious? It's possible for you to find out the base station. But as you know, we can't be
sure that we can find it. Even if we find the location of the base station, it's not that easy to find the
source of the transmission."
Space numbers were too confidential to be found or copied. Besides, it cost a lot. It's not something
that ordinary people could afford. The one who could set a base station would be someone they
couldn't mess up with easily.
If they located the wrong one, and made them alert, the result must be unimaginable.
With a serious look, Mark lowered his eyes.
"We must find out the base station." No matter what he had to pay, he had to find Jessie.

"Lawrence, are you sad to see her like this?" The woman scoffed and her mouth was twisting in a
contemptuous sneer.
Lawrence looked at the woman in sound sleep on the bed, while a terrifying coldness was emitting from
his deep and dark eyes. Glancing at the woman beside him, he said coldly, "It's none of your business."
"You..." The woman gritted her teeth and clenched her fists. "Can you swear that you didn't fall in love
with her? If you don't like her, why do you care so much about her? Lawrence, you can lie to yourself,
but you can't fool me."
Lawrence looked at her and sneered, "Can't fool you?" Nita, don't say I haven't reminded you. I'm the
master here. Don't cross the line."
"Well, since you don't listen to my advice, you'll regret it." Nita Li stared at him with anger. When she
was about to leave, Lawrence suddenly stopped her.
She smiled smugly. He indeed had weakness.
As she turned around, Lawrence said, "Nita, we grew up together, and we are closer than anyone else.
But that doesn't mean you can threaten me as you like!"
"Am I threatening you?" Upon hearing this, Nita Li felt extremely ridiculous. "Lawrence, you know that
we grew up together. Then, why do you turn a blind eye to my affection for you? Why do you trample
my love for you under your feet?! Fifteen years! The times we spent together for fifteen years weren't
even as important as the woman you saw in the photo!"
Before Jessie showed up, Nita Li disregarded her completely. She naively believed that her childhood
friendship with Lawrence must be more important than the woman only appeared in the photo.
No one would love a woman who had never appeared in their life!
However, she was wrong.
She had made a huge mistake.
She had never thought that Lawrence would fall in love with this so-called "parental betrothal" woman
at first sight.
Since Jessie appeared, Lawrence accompanied her all the time, never letting her go.
All his care originally belonged to her became not so important, not necessary, he didn't even care
about her anymore! Nita Li would not allow this to happen!
"You can never compete with her." His tone was as cold as ice, without any emotion.
Nita Li's chest lifted up and down due to anger. She clenched her fists. She was a killer and had never
failed. However, she lost to such an insignificant woman.
She was not reconciled.
She refused to accept that her love would end up like this.
If it weren't for the fact that she loved him so much, she would have shot them both in the face.
"I can't compete with her, right? I will show you who will be the winner!"
She slammed the door with a bang.
Lawrence still stood at the bedside, as if nothing had happened. There was only a slight change to his
fiendish face.
He was back to the way he used to be when he faced her. He was as gentle as jade, like a big boy
living in the sun, with a warm smile on his face. The person who saw him always felt so amiable and
warm.
'Jessie, just come back to me. I don't want you to suffer anymore.
That kind of life is not suitable for you at all.
You should have lived a carefree and happy life, just like a princess. Why did you choose to live a life
with Mark?'
He sat down on the bedside quietly.
He looked at her small fair face gently, bent over and kissed on her red lips.
When Jessie was half asleep and half awake, she seemed to hear someone talking. With her eyes
rolling, she opened her eyes and saw a face close to her, a perfect face.
With her eyes wide open, she stretched out her hand and pushed Lawrence away. In a loud voice, she
asked, "What are you doing?"
"I..." All his helplessness and regret flashed across Lawrence's face. He had never thought that he
would be so impulsive that he could not help kissing her after watching her. Embarrassed, Lawrence
replied, "Jessie, you are awake now."
"Yes, if I don't wake up, do you still want to do something to me?" With her almond eyes open wide,
she was still suffering from the fear.
"Lawrence, aren't you my elder brother? Do you know that siblings are forbidden to do this?" He and
she could only be brother and sister. If he had other feelings for her, that would be commit incest!
Didn't he know about it?
A trace of sadness flashed across Lawrence's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
Brother and sister?
She wasn't his sister, but his fiancée! They were engaged to each other before they were born!
But he couldn't tell her.
At least, it was not the time to say it.
"Jessie, I'm sorry!"
