Lilian held Jessica shand tightly her eyes filled with hope Right now Jessica was her only hope She truly believed that Jessica would save her
Jessica looked at Lilian and said softly Mom
Lilian immediately wrapped her arms around Jessica Yes darling
Jessica didn t pull away She let her mother hold her but there was a hint of worry in her voice as she said Horace is starting to doubt my background
What Lilian stiffened her heart skipping a beat Why would he doubt your background
“BecauseIwenttohimtopleadforyou.Iwantedhimtoletyougo,buthethinksyou’vekilledsomeone,sohewon’treleaseyou.Igroveled andbeggedhim,buthesaidyou’rejustmyfostermom,notmyrealmom.Thatwaswhenhestartedtoquestionwhere Ireallycamefrom.”
Jessica s voice cracked with frustration and a bit of guilt
Lilian was deeply moved I can t believe you did that forme I thought you d forgotten about me
“Ofcoursenot!Backinthehospital,whenIsaidyoukilledDad,itwasbecauseIhadnochoice–itwasjustatemporarymeasure.Icouldneverabandonyouorstoptryingtosaveyou.Butnow,I’vefailedtogetyouout,andHoraceisalsostarting tosuspectwhoIreallyam.Mom,whatshouldIdo?
If I lose the identity of the richest man s daughter then the Crone and Larson families will turn their back son me I ll be left with nothing All my life I ve been better than Wendy She ll step all over me and bully me I can t live like that
Mom you remy real mother You ll help me won t you You re the only one I can count on now
Tears began to stream down Jessica s face falling quickly and silently as she sobbed in despair With her voice barely audible she looked incredibly vulnerable
Lilian s heart broke at the sight No don t cry I ll figure something out
But what can you do Horace is determined to make you talk and he s already starting to suspect us Unless
Unless what Lilian asked her voice trembling
Unless you disappear from this world
“What?”
Disappear from the world
Lilianstumbled back,herfacepalewithshockasshestaredatJessica,completelybaffledbywhatshewashearing.
Jessica stepped closer her expression cold This is the only way You have to take everything on yourself and end it all That s the only way to save me
Lilian couldn t believe what she was hearing You came here today to ask me to end my life You didn t actually plead forme did you You were lying tome Your tears they re all fake
Had she already figured it out Jessica had initially planned to manipulate Lilian tricking the latter into willingly ending her own life But now the act was falling apart
Without hesitation Jessica wiped away her tears with a blank expression and revealed the truth
That s right In ever begged for you
How could you do this tome Lilian s voice was filled with disbelief and pain
