"Do you really want to leave?"
Looking at Mark in a daze, Jessie almost blurted out the words 'I don't want to', but anyway, it was impossible for her to stay.
She didn't care about her reputation. However, she couldn't be selfish to ignore her mother and brother.
If she didn't care now, she wouldn't put herself in such a situation in the beginning!
Everything she did would be in vain.
The atmosphere was extremely tense. Seeing that the two did not speak, the crowd could only hold their breath and dare not to make a sound.
They looked at each other. The pair of deep black eyes, which seemed to be able to see through everything, looked straight at Jessie, and directly at her heart.
She admitted that it was very comfortable to be with him. She didn't have to wear a mask all the time as she did in front of the Lan family and the Lin family. She liked the feeling of being free and talking freely with him.
However, it didn't matter whether she liked it or not. Before she could make sure she could take good care of her family, what kind of life she was living wasn't important at all!
"We are not from the same world at all. I have a lot of things that I have to do and can't let go. You should know everything about me, so don't force me anymore, OK?"
Although Jessie said she wanted to leave, everyone present could feel that she had no choice but to do so.
It was like two people who were in love with each other, and the scene of being forcibly separated was really heartbreaking and tearful.
Even Rachel couldn't help but feel pity for her.
After a long time, Mark said slowly, "Okay, I'll ask Nick to drive you back."
After saying that, before Jessie left, Mark turned around and left first.
Looking at his back, Jessie's heart twitched violently, and she almost took a breath because of the pain.
"So... I didn't know your name yet."
Mark paused and said, "It doesn't matter. That's not important to you."
Jessie lowered her eyes. Yes, why did she bother to ask?
What could I do even if I knew!
Anyway, they will never meet again.
——
On the way back, Nick saw that Jessie was silent. He didn't say anything. But before she got off the car, he couldn't help saying, "Mrs. Jessie, in fact, our young master is really good to you. I've been with him for so many years, and I've never seen him treat anyone so well."
Jessie looked at him suspiciously. Good? Maybe!
"Nick, I want to ask you, why do you always call me Mrs. Jessie? I really don't know him very well."
"……" Nick was stunned and wondered whether he should tell Jessie or not.
Jessie's husband was Mark, and their young master was the disabled Mark of the Lan family. Since the day she was kidnapped, it was not a secret that she was Mark's wife in the whole manor. What's more, even Mr. Mark has acquiesced that. Who would deliberately change the way how they call her?
Seeing Nick's hesitation, Jessie smiled and said, "Forget it. I'm fine. Thank you for driving me back... Be careful on your way. Goodbye."
Seeing that Jessie walked into the Lan family's house, Nick sighed. He turned around, got on the car and left.
When Jessie was about to go upstairs, the servant Grace came out.
"Mrs. Jessie, you are back."
"Yes. Where is Mr. Mark?"
"Mr. Mark has gone abroad. He will be back in a few days."
"Oh." Jessie said. Then she went straight upstairs.
Jessie was lying on the bed, looking at the fresh and clean guest room. The depression in her heart seemed to have dissipated a lot.
Went abroad...
It would be good if he was not there, in case she didn't know what to say to him. And she didn't have to go to the main room to sleep.
She couldn't accept the dark room. Mark was not only strange in character, but also in taste. It wasn't like M's manor. M's manor was perfect. It was elegant but not vulgar, gorgeous but not luxurious. It was such a place where she liked very much.
It's not like here, it's just a ghost house!
Gradually, the man's face came back to her mind.
M...
Was his name M?
