President Williams Woos His Ex-wife Again novel Chapter 26

“My dear!” Beth yelled, and the darkness disappeared. She quickly sat up. The first sight she saw was Jessica, tending her knee with cotton swab and disinfectant.

Beth was still a bit unconscious. She croaked, “Jessica?” “Beth!” Jessica raised her head. Her long slanted eyes were red. “Hold on, it’s gonna be fine,” said Jessica.

Jessica was wearing a heavy makeup in a v-neck red dress, but it didn’t make her flirtatious. She looked noble and dignified in red, just like a queen from an ancient painting. Plus, her fair face made her as bright as a rose.

Jessica was born with the temperament of nobleness, though she was made barmaid in the Shades by her ruthless husband. Here she resembled red plum blossom in winter, braving snow storms proudly. However difficult it was, she never gave in.

“Jessica!” Beth couldn’t help crying, just like a child finally found someone to rely on. “Don’t worry, I’m here!” there was tenderness in Jessica’s eyes. She carefully applied disinfectant on Beth’s knee. Her voice was full of sadness, “I’m sorry. I was late! If only I could get to you earlier, you wouldn’t have been bullied by Williams!”

Jessica had heard what had happened in that room. She felt regret. She could do nothing to help her best friend. Years ago every man drooled for her, but now she was just a barmaid despised by many.

“Jessica, I’m not scared of his bullying. But you’re such a brilliant woman. You shouldn’t be subject to Rawson Thomas! You’re the head of your family, the lady of the Evans family…How could he treat you like that?” Beth’s throat was burning as she cried.

Jessica held back her tears, hugged Beth, and said, “It’s fine. I don’t care how difficult it is. Don’t cry. You’ve bled a lot. It worries me.” Jessica’s fair face was full of grief, “Beth, divorce Williams. You should start a new life. Stop torturing yourself.”

Beth was shaking, crying and smiling at the same time, “Jessica, even though I divorce him, he won’t let me go.” “What happened?” Jessica released her and asked.

Beth did not intend to tell Jessica what had happened, because Jessica was in a worse situation, but she couldn’t bear it anymore. She told her everything. Finally, she cried hard in Jessica’s arms.

Jessica shouted, “Kathy that bitch! I knew she wasn’t moral! How dare she frame you like that! I’ll kill her!” Tears kept streaming down Beth’s face, “Jessica, I have nothing!”

Thinking of Beth’s illness, Jessica sobbed, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die! I will save you at all costs!” “I’m not afraid to die, but it shouldn’t be like that!” Beth croaked.

Jessica hugged her, and said firmly, “Beth, Williams and his kind are blinded. I trust you. I always do. You’re such a good girl. How could it be possible for you to kill Mrs. Johnson? Let me help you leave here.”

“Leave here?” Beth mumbled. ‘Can I still leave here?’ thought Beth. Jessica felt heartbroken for Beth, “Beth, he doesn’t love you, Can’t you see it? Leaving is your best choice! Look at me. I’m such a bad example!” Beth lowered her head, shedding tears quietly.
