It seemed that she couldn't go back to the pass.
Jessica sighed and she had a look at the clock. When she saw that it was already 11. 25, her heart beat so fast.
His father sent her dozens of messages but Jessica didn't know what to do.
Should she steal the design drawings?
Suddenly, her phone vibrated again, and she got another message.
"What are you doing? I am waiting for you so anxiously but you just ignore me! Fine, Because you are heartless, don't blame me for my disloyalty."
Then she got a MMS.
Her face turned pale when she saw that her son's mouth was stuck by a white cloth…
Jason was carrying his school bag went back to the old building sadly.
He stood downstairs and looked up at the small house that he had been living with his mother and grandma for a long time.
Suddenly, he was feeling sad but excited. He thought of his mom's smile and he missed her so much.
He grinned brightly then he rushed upstairs to his home.
When he arrived home, he found the door wasn't closed.
Jason was scared by he was about to shouted out that he was back.
"Bastard! See, this is the daughter that you raised! She just fooled around all the time with those wild men. Now, she has such a wild kids! Since she ignored me, I would do something bad to her."
"Henry, calm down. Jessica must be figuring out the way to get the drawings. Just give her some time. OK? Don't hurt Jason, he is innocent."
Jason frowned when he heard his grandma's voice.
Why grandma said don't hurt him? He was here safely.
Jason was confused and then he walked to the door quietly and peeked inside the room from the crack.
Then he saw the man who was snapping at his grandma.
"Who was he? He looked so fierce." He thought in mind.
"Martha, you say you love me! I treat you not bad these years! If I didn't save you out, you would be sold to the remote countryside to be other man's wife! Now, you don't care whether I am alive o dead just because of your daughter!" Henry was in a rage.
Martha was sobbing and she almost knelt down in front of Henry. "No, no, Henry. I know you saved me! I would never betray you... But the kid is innocent; you can tie me up and just let Jason go…"
"Fuck off. Don't block me."
Henry kicked Martha fiercely and she hit the wall because of his kick.
Jason hid at the door and he was so scared.
Then he saw clearly that the boy who was tied up on the chair with a white cloth stuck in his mouth was Matthew!
Jason was in a great shock with his eye wide open.
He had seen the photo of Matthew for many times in the house of the Carters. Since they looked exactly the same, he could recognize that the boy who was tied up on the chair was Matthew.
Why Matthew was at his home?
"Henry, I beg you…" Martha knelt on the ground and cried out.
Jason clenched his fists tightly and he was so anxious and worried. Suddenly, there was an idea coming to his mind…
In the Meeting Room.
Jessica was holding her cell phone tightly and her fingers were trembling. What her dad did made one boil with anger.
She was gazing at her son's photo on the screen and she felt that even though he was tied up but he was still composed. His eyes were bright and tough seemed like telling her that, "Mom, I am OK. Don't worry about me…"
Jason…
Jessica's tears almost welled up in his eyes.
She wouldn't let his son get hurt!
"Well, Mr Carter. About the design of the construction of 'Shine Project', we prefer North American style…" A manger was still reporting to Louis.
Jessica was anxious and she bent over and sneaked out of the room along the wall.
As soon as she ran out of the meeting room, she called Henry.
Henry picked up the phone and said rudely, "you, unfilial daughter! Now you know call me back!"
"What did you do to my son." She said in a cold voice but she was so worried about Jason.
"Take it easy. I am not that inhuman. The kid is safe for now. But I can't assure you that he will be safe in the future…"
Henry said in a gloomy voice which scared Jessica so much!
How ridiculous they were! Jessica sneered and said, "I will send you the drawings right away! Don't hurt my son!"
"Great, I am waiting."
She hanged up the phone and took a deep breath. Then she straightened her back and pretended to be composed and then walked towards the office.
Jason went downstairs and he was scared to death.
He kept recalling the face when his grandma was crying and Matthew was helpless in his mind.
He must figure a way to save them since his mom wasn't there.
Jason ran to a news stand and told the boss of the news stand breathlessly, "uncle, there is a bad guy in my home, can I borrow your phone and call the police?"
"Is that true? I will help you call the police…"
In the office of Louis.
It was deadly quiet.
Jessica sat in front of Louis's computer and her hands kept sweating.
She had typed the passwords for the ninth times.
But they were all wrong!
