Jessica suddenly panicked when she found Lorenzo missing. Given how he looked before he left, Jessica was afraid that Lorenzo might get himself in danger.
He...
Jessica was worried that he might be having a problem.
That only made Jessica more anxious. She hurriedly got up to look for Lorenzo.
"Lorenzo, are you in the room?"
Jessica walked into the closet room and looked around. She checked both closet rooms and didn't find Lorenzo there. No one answered when she called his name, so she could only try another place.
"Lorenzo, are you there?"
Jessica suddenly realized that the best place to calm down was the indoor swimming pool. When she hurried over and pushed the door open, the cold air in the room made her shiver.
The door of the place closed automatically. She started to search for Lorenzo in this huge place. She had looked around for quite a while and found no one inside this family gym. However, she did have found some big ice bricks in the swimming pool.
"Lorenzo... Argh!"
Jessica was about to leave and search for Lorenzo in another place. Just by then, she was dragged over by some force. Before she could react, she was slammed into an "ice wall". Her scream then echoed in the indoor swimming pool.
"Why are you looking for me?"
A low-pitched hoarse voice whispered by Jessica's ear. She was pulled into the arms of the "ice wall".
That "ice wall" was Lorenzo.
"My God! Are you soaking in the ice water in the swimming pool? Have you lost your mind?"
Jessica quickly pushed his arms away. She quickly put her small hands on Lorenzo's cheeks and felt sick at heart.
"I understand you want to calm down, but this is by no means the right way. It could have killed you! I can help you with that. Why do you have to torture yourself..."
Jessica said as she turned around. She was going to go back to the bedroom for something, but Lorenzo stopped her.
"I... I was almost done calming myself, but the bad feeling flooded back when I saw you again. Please help me, will you?"
No matter how powerful and talented Lorenzo was, he was still an ordinary man. Being soaked in ice water for hours made him shake like a leaf. His muscles were all softened, so he could only press himself against Jessica.
"I want you..."
Lorenzo didn't want to let go of Jessica again. She was in his heart now. Therefore, he started to rip off Jessica's nightdress with all his left strength.
Tu-tum... Tu-tum...
Jessica stood frozen for a while. She could hear her own heart beating in her throat.
"Don't do this, please. I'm sorry... I can't help you with that..."
Jessica couldn't bear to see Lorenzo struggling in pain. She could give him what he wanted, but that would only make her obsessed with him. She couldn't let their relationship go further because they were destined to separate. It was just a matter of time.
Jessica already knew that Lorenzo had taken an irreplaceable place in her heart.
"You're such a naughty girl. You warmed me up and turned away from me again and again. You must be delighted to see me in pain, huh?"
Lorenzo wouldn't let go of Jessica no matter how. His voice echoed in the open space.
"Take it easy, if you really want it... There are places I can send you to... You'll be fine afterward..."
Jessica sobbed and even felt relented for a moment. However, she suddenly recalled the strange woman on the phone last time. Maybe Lorenzo had done the same thing to her.
With Lorenzo's status in the business industry nowadays, he could get any woman he wanted. Jessica knew she wasn't capable enough, and she wouldn't be able to regulate such a powerful man.
"What did you say?"
Lorenzo was holding Jessica in her arms. His hand trembled a bit after he heard Jessica's words. Then his eyes turned as cold as ice, and his face was terrifyingly gloomy.
He couldn't believe Jessica would rather let him go for prostitutes than touch her.
Rage boiled Lorenzo's vein. His anger was held to the extreme and finally erupted.
Boom!
Crack!
When Jessica saw Lorenzo pouching, she closed her eyes and was ready to take whatever was coming at her.
She would rather be killed by Lorenzo right now than become one of his many toys. If she had to die today, she would choose to die with a clean reputation.
Jessica was startled by the big noise and opened her eyes. The exercises machines next to them, which had been polishing like new just now, were completely distorted. Jessica then smelled blood in the air, which immediately made her vigilant.
"Your..."
Lorenzo's hand was a mess of blood. The blood dripped off from his hands and fell on the floor. The large area they stood was soon dyed red.
