Chapter 100 You smell good
Chapter 100 You smell good
Kevin hadn't visited Jessica since she got married. As an old saying gone, a married daughter was like
split water, let alone his son-in-law.
The Private Estate was so remote that it took a long time to get there from the Armstrong Residence
even by driving. It’s like a lonely island because it's not near the city center and there were few
dwellings. Kevin was a superstitious man. He thought that sparsely populated areas were not suitable
for people to live in. Only vampires would live there mysteriously.
It’s ominous.
"Leila, Jessica's husband is terminally ill and sadistic. Why must I go to see them? What if he has a
recurrence while I’m there? It’s ominous. I don’t think I should visit them." Kevin shook his head with
disapproval.
"Dad, listen to me. The gossip tarnishes the Armstrong Family now. You have to protect our reputation.
You must ask Jessica why she is with Lorenzo. After all, it would probably harm your business. An
excellent man like Mr. Fletcher is just playing with Jessica. There's no way he would marry her whether
she gets divorced or not. You think the Fletcher family will accept an abandoned wife?"
When Leila realized Kevin was backing down, she fanned the flames as hard as she could. She had to
make Jessica's husband show up to hyping the scandal up so Jessica and her husband would live in
hell.
Such a slut was a shame for the family. Leila didn’t believe the Fletcher family would let Jessica marry
Lorenzo.
"I know. Although the Fletcher family has it roots in Nicolork, it has considerable influence in Ameriart. It
is one of the four rich and powerful families after all. Jessica doesn’t even deserve to be Lorenzo's
concubine. Men are all thrill-seekers. They will dump their lovers as soon as any negative report
appears so you will the one who will marry him."
Kevin was clear that any normal man would not pick Jessica, let alone Lorenzo. He’s not out of his
mind. The future of the Armstrong Residence would depend on Lorenzo so it’s wise for him to curry
favor with Leila now.
"Don’t worry. I have my trump card. With it, Lorenzo will definitely marry me. No one but I will be his
wife. But Dad, you must do me a favor. I need to find out about Jessica's husband. Only by knowing my
and knowing my opponent can I win every battle. You still have to tell her husband how Jessica
seduced Mr. Fletcher. You'd better exaggerate it. If you can make up your mind to irritate him to death,
we can get twice the result with half the effort."
Leila looked at Kevin.
"Leila, don’t worry. I will do whatever you want if you can marry Lorenzo." Kevin saw Leila as his only Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
hope. As long as she married Lorenzo, his meteoric rise was just around the corner.
Leila chuckled to herself. Maybe there’s a chance that Lorenzo would marry Jessica if she was single.
Unfortunately, Jessica was a married woman so there's no way they would get married.
Good!
‘Well, well, well. Jessica, how dare you, such a humble bitch, compete with me!’ she thought.
***
In the CEO’s office, in the Fletcher Group.
The sunlight went through the big window, shining in the room. It was peaceful.
Jessica was sleeping on the big bed in the bedroom. The room was decorated in Lorenzo’s style. All
kinds of daily necessities were available. The wardrobe was full of clothes for all seasons and
occasions, which suggested that Lorenzo lived here frequently.
When Lorenzo came out, Jessica was lying in bed with the sun shining on her. She was sexy. The sun
made her gentle and pretty, just like a fairy in the jade pool. It’s like a dream.
Jessica pulled the thin blanket to cover her body, exposing only her fond eyes to gaze at Lorenzo.
Lorenzo finished his bath just now. He bent down slightly.
"You're with your clothes on, not naked. Do you have to give me such a sign?" Lorenzo chuckled and
lay down beside Jessica, pulling down the thin blanket.
"You..." Jessica didn’t know what to say. She wanted to kick him so that he would stop talking like that.
She had no clothes to put on after the shower so she picked a shirt from his wardrobe and put it on.
She had a fairy look, with fair and tender skin. She looked at Lorenzo with her watery pretty eyes.
"Jessica, I want to kissed you. Is that okay?" Lorenzo got up slightly and pressed on her.
Jessica saw the hesitation in his eyes. He would have kissed her directly before. She pulled the blanket
up again to refuse him.
"Well, okay." Lorenzo sat up and didn’t force her.
Her eyes lit up. When Lorenzo wasn't looking at her, she got up and kissed Lorenzo's handsome face
quickly.
Lorenzo looked at Jessica in surprise. She pulled up the blanket again, laughing out loud.
"Oh, little one, you are so bad." Lorenzo's eyes squinted. He pulled Jessica with a little force, holding
her tightly in his arms, which was very sensual.
"Come on. Open your mouth." Jessica took out a small box from the nightstand, gently opened it, took
a pill from it and coaxed Lorenzo to open his mouth.
"Pills?" Lorenzo raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Jessica in his arms.
"What do you think it is? Of course, it’s that kind of pill when you take it, I'll be your only girl for the rest
of your life. No girl will ever have a chance to steal you from me." Jessica smiled.
"Well, although I hate to take medicine, I’m willing to take it for you. How do you want to reward me?"
Lorenzo took Jessica by the hand and then he swallowed the pill in one gulp. He wrapped her in his
arms, buried his handsome face in her chest, turned her to face him and then kissed her.
Lorenzo was very gentle so that he would not frighten Jessica. At the same time, he gazed at her to
see her reaction. He had thought Jessica would resist his approach but instead, Jessica was very soft.
She buried herself in Lorenzo’s chest, with her face blushing.
Looking at her lovingly, he kissed her even more gently.
When Jessica was almost unable to breathe, she nudged Lorenzo away, with her head resting on his
strong chest and her hand playing with Lorenzo's collar.
"You smell good, my little wife. You make me crazy." Lorenzo was smiling.
"Mr. Fletcher, come here." With the tools ready, she raised her hand and motioned Lorenzo to lie down
in her arms.
Lorenzo raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Jessica's slender body. He smiled, lay in her arms
obediently and then closed his eyes slowly.
Jessica held the special silver needle that her mother had left her and put it into Lorenzo's skin quickly
and firmly. She was using acupuncture combined with pills to help alleviate his illness, which would not
cure it but would prevent it from getting worse.
Doctors could cure the disease but not inner demons.
Lorenzo was good at self-control and he didn’t want his weakness exposed. Business was like a war
where even a little mistake could cause a desperate situation.
The reason why Adam never cured him was because Lorenzo didn't cooperate at all so he couldn't do
anything about the disease.
"Mr. Fletcher, as far as I know, the Fletcher family has its roots in the political center of Nicolork. You
just came to Ameriart a few years ago, right? When you’re here at Ameriart, you are alone with your
grandpa. What about your father? Will you miss him?"
In order to find out the cause, Jessica must know what Lorenzo's inner demons were. Only by having a
thorough understanding of him can she make a plan.
Lorenzo had talked about his family-his half-brother and stepmother but Jessica didn’t know about his
relationship with his father. As for his mother... Maybe it’s even harder for him to tell something about
his mother compared with his father.
"My father... I was not a pleasing child. My father has always been indifferent to me. He doesn’t like me
and even hates me. Everything that my mother and I hold dear would be destroyed or given away by
him."
Lorenzo's voice was gentle and ethereal. It looked that he's relaxed.
"I clearly remember my mother’s best friend with whom she grew up. She used to come to visit her
occasionally. Every time she came, my mother would be very happy."
"She came to my mother just after she had a baby. She said she had a daughter who was just one
month old. She’s little and pretty. My mother’s best friend proposed that they arrange betrothal of
minors for me and her daughter since they were good friends. She also gave my mother their heirloom
so I could marry her daughter when I grow up."
"How could my father let such an opportunity pass? To make it impossible for us, he took the heirloom
from my mother and gave it to my younger brother so that the little girl would become his fiancee."
