Chapter 57 Jessica Was Kidnapped
Nancy looked at her confusedly and handed it back to her, “You are hired by Mr. Carter. I don’t have
right to approve of your resignation.”
“It doesn’t matter. You can just sign your name and then I can give it to CEO.” Jessica said in a rarely Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
good manner.
Though he was hire by Benjamin Carter, Louis Carter said that as long as she won the bet, he would
tell Benjamin to free her.
Jessica urged Nancy to take her resignation then she left with her eyes a smile.
She went back to the office and tucked up in the sofa leisurely.
But she didn’t see Louis when she was back to the office.
No one dared to break into his office except her so that the office was terribly quiet.
No one would come in and inform her what was happening outside.
But she wasn’t interested in that.
She gazed at the clock with her drowsy eyes.
And counted backwards... Five minutes... Three minutes... One minutes...
Time to clock off! Jessica couldn’t help cheering up, “Yoho! I’m free!”
She had suffered kinds of hardships and she said it with a slight of loneliness.
She jumped up from the sofa and packed her things. When she walked to the door, she couldn’t help
turning back and had a look at the office, especially the huge and fancy table of Louis. Her lips lifted
slight.
Goodbye, Louis Carter.
Bye, asshole.
She walked out of the mansion of the Carters Group.
Jessica took a deep breath under the setting sun.
It seemed that she could smell the freedom. She couldn’t help smiling.
Thinking of her mom and son, she sped up her pace.
She went through an alley, went across the street and took a bus as usual.
But when she was turning around the corner, she saw a car rushing pass her.
She paused and stared blankly.
Though the car was driving so fast, she could see that it was Terry Wright she met in the Chinese
restaurant that night who was driving the car.
Out of curiosity, she gazed at the car.
Terry stopped by the road after passing a traffic light.
There was a tall man who was in white casual clothing standing aside.
He was fair-skinned and gorgeous who attracted lots of attention from the passers-by.
Jessica was shocked.
And she couldn’t help walking up but her heart was tightened. She recognized who he was...
She saw that the man bent over and had a look in the car, he opened the door and got in.
“No...” Jessica sobbed subconsciously, “please don’t go...”
However, cars were flowing along the road and her trembling voice was drowned out in the noise.
She chased the car subconsciously with tears welled up to her eyes.
“Please don’t go... Wait for me...”
However, she was too slow to chase the car.
The car just disappeared from her sight...
She was gasping and slowed down her pace. Her lips were pale and her tears kept falling. She
murmured to herself, “wait for me, Jeremy...”
It had been five years. Jessica thought that she could face that handsome young man in her memory
calmly, but she couldn't. The moment she saw Jeremy, she couldn’t help crying...
Just then, at the crossroad, there was a van rampaging her.
Jessica wasn’t quick enough to react but she heard the brakes squealing and saw a van stopped by
her.
There were a few strong men getting out of the car and grabbed Jessica without letting anyone know.
“What are you doing? Let go of me...”
Her mouth gagged with a cloth to stop her screaming. They tucked her into the car and drove away.
The night was coming.
It was bustling tonight in the house of Carters.
Benjamin Carter was grinning from the morning till the night.
During the dinner, he was so excited that he picked up the wineglass but Shirley stopped him.
“Benjamin, the doctor tells that you can’t drink any alcohol. Do you remember?”
Benjamin chuckled and replied, “That’s fine. I am so happy that Louis and Joyce are here.”
In fact, he felt delighted not only because Louis came back home for dinner but also, he read the
explosive headline this morning.
He didn’t expect that Louis broke up with Brenda White!
Benjamin finally didn’t need to worry about Louis and Brenda White’s relationship.
According to Keith, the woman who Louis was hugging on the cruise last night was Jessica.
Thinking about that, he couldn’t help laughing and he found that he made a wise decision to hire
Jessica.
“Joyce, help yourself! Don’t be nervous... Louis is always that quiet.”
Joyce glanced at Louis who was silent all the time cautiously, but her heart was pounding so fast. She
smiled and nodded, “I will, Uncle Benjamin, Aunt Shirley.”
During the dinner, Benjamin was chuckling but Louis kept quiet.
After they finished the dinner, Louis frowned and picked up his jacket and he was about to leave.
But Benjamin was angry.
“Stop! Where are you going now?” he snapped at Louis.
Joyce who was standing aside was so embarrassed.
Louis didn’t look at her at all.
He answered Benjamin in a cold voice, “I am heading home.”
“Here is your home!” Benjamin was angrier when he heard what Louis said.
Shirley was nervous and walked to Benjamin, “Benjamin, calm down. Watch your blood pressure.”
He was laughing so happily just now but he was livid when he saw Louis was leaving.
Louis peeked at his dad and said coldly, “I obeyed what you asked me to do and came back to have
dinner, what do you want?”
Under the comfort of Shirley, Benjamin calmed down, “Can’t you just stay here and accompany Joyce?
Here is your home too!”
“It’s your home!” Louis said indifferently, “not mine.”
Benjamin was in a rage again and stared at him.
“What are you saying! Are you bold to say that again? You don’t want to acknowledge me as your dad,
do you?”
“Benjamin!” Shirley cut it hurriedly and she looked at Louis, “Louis, I beg you OK? Stop making your
dad angry, can you?”
“Bullshit! I don’t need you to beg him!”
Shirley couldn’t help sighing and peeked at Benjamin, “Benjamin, can you just stop talking? It’s
understandable that Louis is in a bad moon since he just went through something bad.”
She was right.
Louis and Brenda had been in a relationship for ten years. He might be in a bad mood because of their
break-up.
Thinking of that, Benjamin wasn’t that angry.
Louis didn’t say anything and his eyebrows furrowed tighter. He picked up his jacket and left without
turning back...
No matter how Benjamin roared to him, no matter how Shirley persuaded, he turned a deaf ear to
them.
He walked out of the house and drove away...
Nothing could make him back home expect his dad who was so hard for him to communicate, and his
son who was like a stranger to him...
The van drove through a dark alley.
It finally stopped at the end of the road.
Jessica was blindfolded along the way, she was tied and gagged with a cloth.
She had no idea where she was taken by these kidnappers.
She knew the car stopped and she was dragged out of the van by the kidnappers.
Jessica was thrown to the ground rudely after she went through a few doors.
It hurt!
“Adam, she’s here.”
Then they began to untie Jessica.
When she opened her eyes, she found herself in an old and small house.
There were around seven strong men with tattoos standing around.
She was trembling and she knew that she was kidnapped.
There were two man sitting in the old and torn sofa.
One of the men with tattoos looked so gloomy and scary. Jessica guessed that he was the leader here,
who was called Adam.
The other man... Jessica was shocked when she saw him.
She didn’t expect that the man who was trembling with fear was her dad, Henry Wilson!
Jessica gnashed her teeth and climbed up from the ground. She stared and her and asked, “What the
hell are you doing?”
There was a twinkle in his eyes, and he was trying to hide, “I don’t want it happen at all! Jessica
Wilson, you are the only one who should be blamed on!”
“Me?” Jessica was shocked and she could feel the cold shiver running down her fingers.
“The Wilson Group got the best score at the first round of the bid, but the Carters Group announced the
shortlist today, the Wilson Group isn’t on the list! You are the secretary of Louis Carter; you must know
that!” Henry was frowning and obviously, and it was obvious that he got bruises on his forehead.
Jessica was in a great shock, “the Wilson Group is eliminated?”
She forgot that today the Carters would announce the shortlist since she only was focused on her
resignation.
No wonder she didn’t see Louis the whole day.
But she didn’t expect that he chose to eliminate the Wilson Group mercilessly.
“Stop pretending!” Henry snorted and snapped at her, “I know I shouldn’t have trusted you. You
promised me to help stealing the drawings last time just because I threatened your son. But I didn’t
expect that you would betray me! I am just too careless!”
“Family talk is over, right?” Adam cut in rudely. And he smiled. “Henry Wilson, you are so lucky that you
have two wives and your daughters are pretty.”
Henry was sweating and he replied in a trembling voice, “Adam, this is my older daughter. She is Louis
Carter’s secretary. It is all because of her! It has nothing to do with my younger daughter. Please let go
of my wife and my younger daughter...”
Adam slapped his face fiercely.
“You are such a loser! Don’t worry, I will let them go until you pay my debt!”
“Adam, eighty million dollars... I couldn’t make so much money in such a short time!”
“You are wrong. It’s three hundred million!”
“Three hundred million!” Henry was freak out.
“Pay me back with interests. Three hundred million is too good for you! I wouldn’t lend your money If I
didn’t trust what you said that you would earn more than three billion dollars once the Wilson Group got
the Shine Project. But now you have nothing.”
