Chapter 175
When Judy heard Jessica’s words, her face changed as she looked around in a panic. Finding herself in a hotel room, Judy breathed a sigh of relief secretly.
Judy calmed herself down. She looked at Jessica and said, “Jessica, we didn’t know each other before. And I am grateful to you for helping me that day. How can I ever fool you?”
“Is that so? Then how do you explain the money you received? The man who put on a show with you that day also received money from the same account.”
Jessica wore a smile on her face, but Judy felt even more afraid.
“It has nothing to do with you,” Judy replied, looking a little bit guilty.
“Looks like you won’t admit your mistake.” Jessica chuckled and continued, “But it doesn’t matter. Your answer is not important. Do you think I will just wait until you admit it?”
“W-What are you going to do? This is Los Angeles! You can’t detain anyone! That’s illegal!” When Judy heard Jessica’s words, she suddenly had a bad premonition.
“Don’t worry, I won’t lock you up. I just want you to have a good time here tonight.” Jessica looked at Judy with a half-smile.
“Miss Hall, you are beautiful and rich. It is not worth it to leave a criminal record for a nobody like me.”
“Sounds like you do know me after all. Then can I assume that what you said just now was a lie?” Jes sica raised her eyebrows and suddenly approached Judy.
· “I’m sorry, Miss Hall.” Judy was startled, not expecting Jessica to suddenly get close.
Judy froze for a moment and then pleaded. “Miss Hall, I wasn’t myself before. I am a few months be hind on my rent. Without any income, I will go broke completely! I didn’t mean to play that trick on you.”
“I’m sorry, Judy. Not only did you do a bad thing, but you also used my kindness. Don’t worry, I won’t take the money away, but you need to pay the price for what you do.” Jessica lost her patience, took a few steps back, and glanced at Wendy next to her.
Wendy had been prepared for this moment. After Jessica gave her the signal, Wendy took out a pill box from her handbag and took out a pill.
“Judy, is this familiar to you?” Jessica glanced at the pill in Wendy’s palm and then looked at Judy.
Judy looked at the pill and understood everything. She could no longer retain her calmness. She pan icked and wanted to get off the bed, but she didn’t have any strength.
“Miss Hall, I can’t take this!”
“Is that so? Judy, I remember you gave me one before.” Jessica smiled.
Judy was extremely regretful. She didn’t dare to call the police. She couldn’t afford to offend either Jes sica or the person who hired her. Judy regretted having offended this capable woman for money.
If Jessica was going to teach Judy a lesson in this way, Judy felt she was still able to accept it. She knew that she would be fine once after that night.
“Miss Hall, will you let me go after I take this pill? Will you stop investigating the whole thing if I take
it?”
Jessica snorted, “Judy, you are smart.”
Jessica handed the pill in her hand forward a little more. “Since you are so smart, you don’t need me to force you, right?”
Judy had just cried, and there were still tears on her face, which ruined her makeup.
Judy lowered her head and looked at the pill in Jessica’s palm. She gritted her teeth, reached for the pill, and threw it into her mouth. “Miss Hall, I hope you will keep your word.”
Jessica’s hand was empty. She withdrew her hand and smiled with satisfaction. “I appreciate your de cisiveness. Wish you a happy night.”
Judy didn’t say anything. She lowered her head, thinking about something.
Jessica took one last glance at Judy and smiled at Wendy. She went over to the sofa to pick up her handbag and left the room.
Watching Jessica leave the room, Judy breathed a sigh of relief. But she soon found that Wendy and the bodyguards hadn’t left.
Sensing that Judy was looking at her, Wendy smiled and said, “I forgot to tell you. The man who you cooperated with that day will come over in a while. He has taken a pill as well, and we’ll leave this room for you two later.”
