Chapter 957

[ 665 words ]

Under that level of surveillance, Jennifer felt like she was losing her mind.

She could not end the pregnancy and with people watching her every move , she could not do anything about Monique either.

“Stella, I think I finally understand how Evandrove you to the edge back then.”

Jennifer genuinely felt as though Leon was driving her insane.

Stella fell silent.

Driven insane?

–“Let’s not talk about that.”

Jennifer paused.

“Evan is dead now.”

Even now, Stella felt almost nothing when she spoke of Evan’s death.

It was as though he had always been someone who deserved to die in her world.

And he had.

Even if his death had ultimately involved her, it had only shaken her briefly.

Afterward, the feeling had faded, and everything inside her had gone still again.

Sometimes Stella wondered whether she was coldhearted.

But when she thought about everything Evan had done to her, her reaction seemed perfectly normal.

Just because he had died for her in the end, was she supposed to spend the rest of her life unable to move on?

“So at least that part of your life is finally over,” Jennifer said.

At least everything between Stella and Evan had come to an end.

There was still Felix and Aaron , of course.

Jennifer felt sorry for Stella whenever she thought about them.

But right now, Jennifer seemed to be the one in greater need of sympathy.

“ I’ve sent people to help you , ” Stella said.

“Don’t . ”

Jennifer refused immediately .

Stella frowned .

“Don’t?”

Did Jennifer have any idea what kind of situation she was in ?

“Sending, just anyone won’t help , ” Jennifer said. “ That bastard Lean has everything locked down. The people he assigned to me this time aren’t ordinary guards . ”

Her voice was filled with helpless frustration

Every one of them was highly trained.

Even the household staff were watching her.

The instant Jennifer tried anything , someone would grab her before she could follow through.

Their reactions were frighteningly fast.

As far as Jennifer could see , it did not matter who Stella sent.

“There are too many of them. Twenty or thirty people inside and outside the house , all just to watch me . ”

Her voice cracked with distress.

She had never imagined Leon could become this controlling.

“Youneed to leave Harbor City , ” Stella said.

“ I feel like I…”

“Jennifer , you’ve never been this weak.”

Was she really going to believe she could never escape just because of what Leon was doing now?

“As long as you still want to leave, don’t give up.”

The most dangerous thing would be Jennifer giving up on herself.

That was what Stella feared most.

“Can I really get out?”

Jennifer felt as though Harbor City itself had become a prison.

“Of course you can.”

Jennifer said nothing.

“Leon probably heard that I disappeared,” Stella continued. “That’s why he suddenly became bold enough to treat you this way.”

Felix and Aaron had been searching for her openly.

Leon must have heard the news.

Apparently , he was no better than the rest of them.

“He hardly comes to see me lately , ” Jennifer said. “ He’s busy preparing for his wedding to Monique. ”

He was getting married while keeping Lennifer imprisoned .

“ He’s even more shameless than Evan ever was , ” Stella said.

At least Evan had never confined her this tightly.

No matter how badly she had fought back….

“Yes , ” Jennifer agreed bitterly. “ He’s worse than Evan . ”

How could she possibly imagine a future with a man like that?

“ All right , ” Stella said . “ My people should reach Harbor City within the next couple of days. Lean won’t expect me to help you
