"Adam… She…" Henry was weeping bitterly with his body trembling. He pointed to Jessica and said, "Adam, look, my daughter is responsible to pay mt debt, you can talk to her, she would help me…"
Jessica stared at Henry in despair and in astonishment. She couldn't believe that the man in front was her dad.
He would always take her as his shield when he was in a great danger.
Adam peeked at Jessica and he lifted his eyebrows, "you should ask your daughter whether she is willing to pay your debt."
"No way!" Jessica rejected coldly. "It's none of my business!"
"You bitch! Jessica Wilson, I raised you until you were a grown-up!" Henry was in a rage. "Adam, you can bring her mom here. She loves her mom so much and it will be working to threaten her by catching her mom."
"Henry Wilson!" Jessica roared and she felt the cold shiver running down her spine. "You such an asshole!"
Adam waved his hands to his followers and asked them to leave.
After a while, his followers were moving a wood pile out.
Jessica turned back and she was greatly scared.
The mom who was tied on the wood pile came into her sight.
Martha was obviously whipped by them since Jessica could see some blood on her clothes. Jessica was trembling with fright.
"Mom…" Jessica cried immediately.
She rushed to her mom but blocked by a few strong men. "Asshole, you guys are not human at all! How could you torture such a weak woman! Let go of my mom!"
Adam laughed evilly and gloomily then he said to Henry, "Henry Wilson, look, your daughter is braver than you."
"You're right. Or how could she be Louis Carter's secretary?" Henry Wilson smiled shamelessly and it seemed like that he was happy to find his scapegoat.
Jessica was more and more disappointed. She gazed at her mom who was dying and weak, "Mom, do you see that? This is the man who you loved for more than 20 years. Look, and be clear! Are you sure to marry him?"
Martha looked at her weakly and her forehead was still bleeding. She glanced at Henry who was shivering in the sofa and then glanced at Jessica who was crying. She tried so hard to say out the words.
"Jessica, I am so sorry… But please help your dad… You are helping me too. OK?"
Martha seemed like begging Jessica.
But she wasn't angry or even had a grudge against his dad as Jessica thought in mind. Instead, she was pathetically begging for Henry, who was such an asshole.
Jessica was heartbroken.
And at this moment, she hated her mom.
She hated her mom's crazy and blind love to her dad.
"Mom…" Jessica was sobbing. "How could you sacrifice me for such an asshole?"
Martha blinked her eyes but she didn't dare to look at Jessica. She said in a low voice, "Jessica, I am not scarifying you. I just don't want to see your dad suffering anymore…"
"You don't want to see him suffering, so do I deserve to suffering?" She roared to Martha in a rage. She was clenching her fists so tightly, "I have been suffering a lot because of the Wilson family. You knew that! But you stopped me resisting, so I did stop. But do you still insist to stand by his side? It was him who asked them to bit you like this!"
Martha gnashed her teeth and looked into Jessica's eyes, "Yes!"
Jessica was heartbroken at the moment she heard her mom's answer.
For so many years, she and her mom suffered a lot in the Wilson family. In order to cure her mom's disease, she had done a lot. She could even sacrifice everything for her mom."
But… Henry Wilson would always be more important than her in her mom's eyes.
Jessica's tears kept falling. She smiled bitterly and said, "Mom, in your heart, who is more important?"
She might already know her mom's answer.
But for her, her father would be always the cruelest though her mom was spineless!
Martha frowned and she pursed her lips gloomily. She didn't want to answer Jessica.
"No…" Martha was screaming dismally…
She was whipped suddenly and Jessica was scared when she heard the sound.
"Henry Wilson. You have such a complicate family." Adam slowly took back the whip and had a gloomy look at Jessica.
"Adam, you caught my wives and daughter. Please, show mercy…" Henry was scared to death and he kept sweating.
"I can show mercy, but you should pay your debt first!"
Then Adam flourished a whip and give Martha a whipping again.
Martha was screaming dismally again.
Jessica was trembling and she was so helpless.
Her mom's scream seemed like a knife which was cutting her heart and made it bleed.
Seeing that Adam was about to give her mom a whipping, Jessica finally shouted out, "Stop!"
It seemed that Martha sighed in relief.
The color was back in Henry's face which was pale just now.
Adam smiled with satisfactory, "Why? Do you come up with an idea to pay your dad's debt?"
Jessica took a deep breath and her hands were trembling. She looked at Adam straightly, "Let go of my mom."
Adam sneered, "Are you ordering me, or begging me?"
Jessica clenched her fists tightly, "I am begging you!"
"Ha-ha. Fine. I can let go of your mom, but you need to give me three hundred million." Adam was grinning.
Jessica frowned with an expression of disgust. "I can't give you three hundred million. But I will try to help the Wilson Group."
"Try?" Adam wasn't happy about that. "How long will you try? What should you do if you fail? Are you guys fooling me?"
"No, no!" Henry cut in hurriedly. "We don't dare to fool you, Adam! Let her try! I beg you…"
