"I will think about it. Go finish the things I asked you to do first." Jessica lowered her head, holding her head in her hands. She seemed lost in thought. Who was behind all this? She had the same idea as her special assistant did. She didn't believe it was Edward again. If he really wanted to make Lin Group go bankrupt, he wouldn't have let it go last time. But who would have such a big grudge against Lin Group? She was confused.
She touched her belly gently, and her heart sank deeper. Her father had been sent to overseas to have a good rest there. She did this to hide her pregnancy from him. If he found that she was pregnant, he probably would pass out again. But this time, the company was confronted with such a serious problem, she feared that she was unable to handle it by herself. To tell the truth, after the heavy blow last time, the Lin Group was very vulnerable now. If she could not find capital to put into the company, she had no other option but to declare bankruptcy.
But where could she get such large amounts of capital in such a short time? She didn't have very close friends in this trade. She used to think that she had Edward with her. So she was always very arrogant and set her sights high. She ignored all the other rich men who flattered her. Because in her heart, she was the one who was bound to become Edward's wife. But she didn't expect that Daisy would get in the way and shatter all her dreams. This was a deadly blow which surprised her a lot.
If she went to Edward and begged him for help, would he help her because they used to be lovers? But when thinking of his cold attitude towards her, she hesitated doing this. Because in front of that man, she already lost her love, she didn't want to beg him to keep her dignity in public.
She stood up and walked to the windows. Looking at the hustle and bustle on the street, she frowned deeply. If Lin Group really declared bankruptcy, she would fall from riches to rags and live a normal life which she hated before, which was impossible for her to accept. This was actually worse than being killed by others for her.
No, she couldn't allow that to happen, otherwise she would lose the battle with Daisy. She must find a way to change the situation. So even if she knew that Edward would not speak to her, she wanted to try. In her social circle, Edward was the richest and most influential person, if he didn't want to help her, no one else would be willing to, Jessica thought.
When the phone rang, Edward was on his way home with Daisy. Apparently, Luke needed to send someone to drive Daisy's car back this time, because Daisy was now in a sound sleep in Edward's car. So when Edward heard the phone, he furrowed his eyebrows. He picked up the phone immediately without checking who was calling. He was so eager to stop the ring tone from waking up Daisy. .
