She trembled all over and screamed out of pain.
No matter how hard she struggled, Leigh still pinched her jaw hard and cut her face from her left brows to the lower left of her face with a knife.
Leigh still wore an evil smile while staring at the blood streaming down her cheek and shivering body. Then he questioned softly, “You don’t deserve her face.”
The playboy was rendered stunned. A harsh shiver went down his spine.
Actually, he knew Leigh had been in an affectionate relationship with Jessie. So he found a girl who shared a similar figure with Jessie. And then he paid for a plastic surgery to shape her face according to Jessie’s.
He wanted to make her the gift to ingratiate Leigh. However, the result seemed to go far beyond his expectation.
She kept trembling for a few seconds out of great pain and horror. Then she fainted.
Leigh dropped her on the carpet indifferently. Then he took some tissue to clean up his hands stained with blood. Then he said casually, “Take her out and put a bullet in her head including that plastic surgeon. When it’s done, get the hell out of the city!”
The playboy was aware that it was the ultimatum to him. He didn’t even dare to stay for a second longer. He hurried over to drag the girl out of the box and scrambled away.
Everyone in the box stopped shifted their gaze off from the mess. The atmosphere returned to normal as if nothing had happened.
Leigh poured himself a glass of wine and sipped casually.
Chace cast a glimpse at him, where there hidden mixed feelings. He knew Leigh would definitely retaliate against the playboy. But this consequence really stunned him.
“I gotta go for a walk outside.” Chace grabbed a box of cigarette from the table, stood up and walked out.
He lit up a cigarette outside the box. When he was about to get some food in the restaurant, he raised up his head but accidentally ran into a pregnant lady.
However, when seeing her face, he hurried to get the cigarette off from his mouth, looking shocked.
“Jessie?” he couldn’t believe what he just saw.
Jessie smiled at him, walked over with her hand supporting her waist and said, “It has been a long time.”
“It’s you!” though Chace didn’t spend much time with Jessie, he could still recognize her. He looked down on her belly, “You are still alive! And your baby…”
Ever since Jessie fell into the sea and went missing for long, everyone reckoned she had been dead.
“I was lucky enough to be rescued.” Jessie only replied casually. She didn’t seem to care much about the life-threatening danger at that time. She tilted her head to look at the box behind him, “Leigh is still inside?”
Then she walked over to the box.
Chace hurried to stop her as he noticed that. He cleared his voice, “Do you want some food? Let me take you to the restaurant. Leigh is now busying negotiating about his business.”
As the box was still covered with the strong smell of blood and the fake ‘Jessie’ had been just expelled, he couldn’t risk the possible consequence once Leigh saw Jessie at this moment.
What was more, Jessie was now pregnant. He deemed it better to stay cautious.
“I have been here by a few minutes past six. But you were here at that time. So I went into my own box for sleep.” Said Jessie. Then she continued, “Well, but now I am really a bit starving. Let’s go.”
Chace carefully walked beside while staring at her in case she would stumble herself, “Do you need a hand?”
“No, thanks. I am not a princess.”
The lobby manager, who was on his way to deal with some trifles in a private box, happened to brush past both Jessie and Chace.
“Hello, Mr. Leon.” The lobby manager greeted.
Chace nodded.
As the manager had just passed, he suddenly realized that the pregnant lady was exactly the one who came for Leigh today. But now he was so confused when seeing her walking with Mr. Leon.
The manager then went into the box to serve the guest. As soon as he came out, a waiter rushed over.
“Manager, here is a file waited to be signed. Would you please go for the boss?”
