Chapter 151 A Worse Misunderstanding
Meanwhile, Jessica’s face went ghastly pale as well. Wilfred held her tight into his arms while
attentively watching her face. His heartbeat was running wild because of nervousness. He prayed that
Jessica would be fine.
Jessica weakly rested herself into his arms. She was lightweight, from the body of whom Wilfred could
smell some fragrance.
Still, he fixed his eyes on her, hoping that she could wake up as soon as possible.
Coincidentally, Leila happened to reach the pharmacy. As soon as she looked inside, she witnessed This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
this shocking moment.
Then she froze on spot.
Actually, she returned to the pharmacy just to continue to show off in front of Jessica. However, before
she stepped in, she bumped into this shocking moment.
Before Wilfred could notice, she retreated out of the room. Of course, she recognized Wilfred at the
very first sight. After all, he looked too dazzling to be ignored, who had turned to be the focus of all girls
inside the Institute.
Leila knew nothing about him, but she could tell from his suit that he must be extraordinarily privileged.
Though he looked really eye-catching, Leila had never changed her mind—she still made Lorenzo her
ultimate target.
It had never occurred to her that Jessica was actually having an affair with this young man in white suit.
She realized it was gonna be a breaking news to expect. As powerful as Lorenzo had been, he would
never sit by if he knew that his wife was cheating on him.
At the thought of that, Leila was getting thrilled—it was time for her to revenge herself.
She took out her phone to film it. Then she sent it to Lorenzo.
…
Under the moonlight, a luxurious roadster of customized version was heading to the Training Institute.
It was Lorenzo who was driving to pick Jessica up.
Ever since he left home that night, he had been working hard 24 hours a day. And so were all his
employees. The whole group had turned to be a hive. Exhausted, none of those staffs dared to suggest
for a break in case Lorenzo might get mad.
Lorenzo was still wearing a sullen expression. Some stubbles popped out of his jaw. His indifference
was greatly outlined by the tailor-made black suit he was wearing.
He appeared more repellent to others.
While working, Lorenzo only conducted business through phone calls. He barely spent time on social
media, but in the friend list of which he only kept Jessica within.
Though Lorenzo had been working attentively for two days, Levi started to notice that there was
something wrong with him—Lorenzo seemed to appear absent-minded.
Of course, he could tell that Lorenzo was disturbed. So he had taken over all kinds of work as much as
he could. He never came to Lorenzo unless he got files requiring the personal disposal of Lorenzo.
With his phone by his side, Lorenzo took a look at it from time to time in case he missed any message
from Jessica.
However, he got no text from her even till the night fell.
He couldn’t help wondering if Jessica was being too busy to text him.
But then he doubted it again—though he was busy running the whole group, he could still pay attention
to the message sent by Jessica. At least she could spare a few minutes to text him.
Finally, Lorenzo couldn’t wait anymore. He made a call to grandma, only to know that Jessica hadn’t
returned home.
It was about 20:30 in the evening. But nobody answered when he was calling the phone at home
again. Obviously, Jessica still stayed in the Training Institute.
But the closing time of the Institute was 18:00. He started wondering what she was doing.
Driven by anxious, he felt a bit suffocated. So he pulled the tie loose and began smoking.
As he took a big whiff of smoke, he recollected the conversation with grandma.
“What are you calling for? It’s you who walked away last night. If so, why are you pretending that you
do care about Jessica?”
“You simply walked away when you got annoyed? Have you ever thought about the feeling of your
wife? You don’t even act like a man! Just stay out of her sight if you chose to do so.”
“You gotta know there are a lot of admirers preying for her love. If you wanna quit, there will be still a
group of guys crowding in to chase after her. If that happens, you will definitely regret it!”
While recalling the conversation, he couldn’t help laughing at himself.
Grandma was right about that—he walked away because of tantrum but he couldn’t hold back his
concern with her at the same time. How ambivalent!
He parked the car near the portal of the Training Institute. Suddenly, his phone buzzed. It was a
message notice. He swiped on the screen to check it.
It was a message from Leila, while the content of which was a video.
As soon as he watched the video, he felt like being frozen.
He watched the video again and again, from which he could tell that it wasn’t an edited one.
He saw from the clip that Jessica was resting into Wilfred’s arms.
…
Meanwhile, Jessica didn’t wake up until quite a while later. Thanks to the quick acupuncture she
performed on herself, and of course, thanks to the aid of Wilfred, she survived.
The ink lotus had been deadly poisonous, while the tox of which could be barely controlled.
Even though Jessica was a medical talent being experienced about poison study, the ink lotus could
still easily get her into danger.
Obviously, this time, she failed. However, she had to start the next experiment ASAP. There wasn’t
much time left for her to deal with Lorenzo’s mental disorder.
She hurried to stand up. However, her sight still remained slightly blurred while dizziness still haunted
her.
“Are you okay?” Wilfred supported her up while asking with great concern.
As she collected herself, she was surprised to find out that she was leaning against his chest.
Her face went pale all of a sudden. However, she could hardly remember what happened ever since
she fainted after taking the poison. When she woke up again, she found herself resting into his arms.
She struggled to break free from his hug. However, she failed because she was still feeble.
She grabbed on his arm to struggle up again.
At this moment, a chilling voice reached her ears from the door, “Great, look what I’ve seen!”
His horrible voice echoed in the air.
Stunned, Jessica hurried to raise her head, only to see the great stature of Lorenzo standing at the
door.
He fixed his sharp eyes on her, in which there mixed with hatred. She felt like Lorenzo was about to
tear her apart.
Never had she seen him being so horrible. Her heart skipped a beat.
“Lorenzo…that’s not the truth…” Jessica struggled to stand up regardless of the great pain.
Lorenzo strode over to Wilfred. He looked like a monster from the hell.
His gaze fell on Wilfred. The next second, he suddenly pulled him over and punched on his body.
Wilfred hit the medicine cupboard on his back because of that. He whined painfully with a trace of
blood running down the corner of his mouth. Meanwhile, he felt a bang of pain inside his head.
“Wilfred, how dare you! Don’t you know she’s my wife? You little bastard!” while speaking, Lorenzo
punched him again.
“Huh, do you think you are noble enough to deserve the marriage? Have you ever told her that you
were kept inside a madhouse for years? I bet you have never been honest with her!” Wilfred stared at
him and refuted with cold voice. He then rubbed off the blood on his face.
Hearing his tough refutation, Lorenzo continued to attack violently.
“Stop! You are killing him!” Jessica was rendered panic. She shouted to stop them.
However, neither of them was listening.
She knew she had to stop it before someone else noticed that and conspired some gossips from it.
Regardless of the pain, she grabbed the handle of the cupboard to struggle up. She teetered forward to
hug Lorenzo.
“Let go!” Lorenzo huffed horribly. Obviously, he was trying to hold back his anger.
“Why don’t you listen to me? That’s not the case! There is a misunderstanding! There is nothing
happening between me and Wilfred!” Jessica struggled to shout at him, trying to ease his anger.
Though she could be probably hurt, she could never loosen her grip.
If the situation got worse, Lorenzo would be out of control again. If someone else noticed that, there
would be a heavy blow to both Lorenzo and the Fletcher Group.
The more powerful Lorenzo had become, the more enemies there would be.
Meanwhile, his eyes had went bloodshot while he was gasping. The veins clearly popped out beneath
the skin of his arms.
He grabbed on Jessica to pull her outside the room.
Wilfred hurried to grab her wrist.
Now, Jessica was being pulled by both sides in between.
