Early in the morning, Blake came to report to Darren about the car accident. Seeing that Jessie was going out, he asked her to accompany him.
"What? Jessie, are you really going to marry Mr. Mark?"
Jessie stayed quietly.
She didn't want to get married. She believed that no one would want to marry a man whom she didn't even know at all, not to mention he was disabled.
But it seemed that she had no choice!
She was destined to be a pawn of Darren. If she didn't marry now, she wouldn't know what kind of person he would find and make her marry in the future. Now she could still marry into the Lan family and be Mr. Mark's wife. If not, Darren might sell her in the future, who knows?
Along the way, both of them were speechless. Blake would look for some topics, but in the end, they all ended in Jessie's silence.
Ah Choo!
Seeing that Jessie sneezed, the air conditioner was switched off at once. Jessie asked, "Blake, do you have any tissue? I forgot to bring some. "
Blake took a piece of tissue from the backseat and handed it to her. Suddenly, he saw a dark red wound on her hand, he asked nervously, "what's wrong with your hand?"
"I'm fine. I just got hurt by accident." Jessie drew her hand back, Blake turned to look at her suspiciously.
Hurt? It looked like that she was beaten with something. How could she be so careless to hurt herself?
Knowing that Jessie didn't want to talk about it, Blake didn't ask anything. He could find the fact anyway, as long as he wanted to.
After more than half an hour, the car stopped not far from the villa of the Lan family.
Blake actually wanted to send her to the gate of the Lan family's villa, but he gave up because Jessie refused.
The Lan Family
The big living room was silent, and the low atmosphere was so depressing that it was hard for people to breathe.
Sitting on the opposite side of Nelson Lan, Jessie slightly clenched her fists, looking nervous.
Nelson Lan was in his fifties and looked quite majestic. He frowned and looked gloomy, which frightened Jessie.
"Uncle Nelson, I'm here to apologize to you. I'm really sorry for breaking my promise last time. "
"Sorry?" With a snort, Nelson Lan leaned against the sofa with his feet crossed and said in a deep voice, "you don't have to feel sorry. Since our Lan family was a noble one, we really don't care if you do take the marriage as a big deal or not. Although Mark has some health problems, there are still many rich Ladies having crush on him."
"……" Jessie felt very funny and didn't know what to say!
'Did all parents think that their children were the best, no matter how bad they were?
Not to mention that Mark was only a disabled person, also a disabled person who had been disfigured. What were they proud of?! Did they really think that I wanted to marry him so much?
I was forced too!'
"Uncle Nelson, I didn't mean to break my promise last time. Really! I was about to go to school the other morning. The moment I got in the car, I was knocked out, and then I was taken to a place far away.... It took me a long time to manage to escape from the horrible place, but I lost my way and rolled down the mountain. Fortunately, I was saved by the villagers and thus I got a chance to survive. Uncle Nelson, look at these wounds."
While speaking, Jessie lifted her sleeves, revealing the wound on her arms, and her watery eyes tried to squeeze out a few tears. The pitiful look made people feel sorry for her.
"Alright! It's all over now. Just let it go. Darren should have told me about it. He really should not ask a little girl like you to come and apologize..... Well, I'm not angry now. But you have to go upstairs and explain to Mark."
Nelson Lan didn't want to say anything more. He didn't want to waste too much time on it. He will just let her off.
Seeing that Nelson Lan was not angry any more, Jessie looked to the second floor too.
What kind of person would Mark be?
