”Hmm... that woman, Alice remained a bitch even to her death! ” It was clear that the lady on the video was upset about Jeslyns
mother.
”Thats why her husband hated her... so, why did you call me here? Don tell me its only to have a taste of me, ” Ray said.
”That aside. Young Miss said that the last dose of the poison has been administered to old man Lee and he won have much time
to live anymore, so our plan to get rid of that idiot after taking the properties from her will be a smooth sailing, ” The lady replied.
”Thats good, and his properties, did he give a share to young Miss Christine? ”
”He willed it all to Jeslyn, stating she can only get them after she got married. ”
”Why do they all want her to get married before getting the inheritance? Im so tired of hearing that! That stupid rule is the reason
Im having issues with the love of my life right now and also, why is that idiot so lucky? She got all her mothers inheritance and
now, her grandfathers. What about Christine? Is she not their daughter too? How do they expect Jeslyn to manage the empire of
the richest man and woman in Rose city? Is that old man senile? ”
”As if you don know how careless and simple Jeslyn wants to live her life. She thinks shes a princess, so I bet they were scared
that shell be cheated out of her properties if she didn have a husband to support her...ironic! ”
”Ironic indeed. I wonder what her grandfathers face would look like when he finds out Im one of those enemies he had been
trying to tell Jeslyn about. Hahaha... ”
The phone slid off Jeslyns hold after watching that video. Her world shook and everything in it tumbled. She stood up and tried
taking a step to the door but she fell against the coffee table. Her head felt heavy and her eyes turned blurry.
”No, Ray cannot do this to me. They are lying about everything, it must be a prank. Grandfather, my grandfather. ”
She murmured to herself even though she was suffering. She wanted to get up to go check up on her grandfather but she couldn
stand properly as the world was spinning under her legs and her eyes were also starting to dim.
Just when she was thinking of calling her assistant or grandfather, the door clicked open and someone walked in. It was a lady,
but she couldn see her clearly. She was wearing a black off shoulder dress.
The lady stood In front of her. Jeslyn could only see her mouth moving, but heard no sound. She struggled to stand on her feet
with the support of the bed and tried to read the ladys lips but her unfocused blurry eyes were bastards.
Her sight started to go dimmer and dimmer, solidifying her belief that she was drugged.
The lady lowered herself and got back up with something like a phone. Yes, that should be her phone, but before she could
make sense of what the lady wanted with her phone, her world turned dark and she felt herself falling.
When she woke up a while later, the truth she just discovered rushed back into her mind and the first thing she wanted to do at
that moment was to call off the wedding.
But what happens to her mothers will? Her grandfathers will can still be changed, but her mothers can ? Will her grandfather
even have enough time to change his will before anything happens to him? Because in the video, they didn specify when the
poison would ruin her grandfather.
Calling the cops will require enough evidence, but what if they claim the evidence she has was fabricated? Shes a celebrity and
has seen lots of such things happen in the entertainment industry.
So the only idea that stuck to her confused brain at that moment was to get married, but definitely not to Ray. Even a janitor, or a
waiter would do, until shes able to sort things out.
She picked up her phone and left the room while crying along the way. It was like luck wasn on her side because after walking
through the corridors of her hotel room, she didn find anyone until she saw him, that weird man coming out or entering the
restroom.
She didn care if her words would sound desperate or if she was making the wrong decision, however all she wanted at that
moment was to solve one of the biggest problems, so she shamelessly proposed to him, ignoring the weird air surrounding him.
...
After hearing his granddaughters story, old man Lee was so furious that he yelled. ”That bastard!! I will– ”
The old man frowned in pain and clawed his chest. ”Argh! ” He cried out. ”Puff! ” He coughed out black blood which got onto
Jeslyns wedding dress.
”G– grandfather, grandfather! ”
Jeslyn rushed to support the old man who was slowly going down with his side.
”Grandfather, help! ” She screamed while looking around the quiet and empty sitting room.
Her assistant was here a while ago, why isn she here now? She didn have the time to think of why the servants and guards that
kept patrolling around the sitting room on other days like they were moths attracted to flame could not be found anywhere today.
”Somebody help me!!! ” She continued to scream but no one came.
The old man kept coughing out black blood. He slowly raised his shaky hands to his granddaughters cheeks and used a finger to
wipe her tears. The stubborn old man who had never cried for decades felt hot tears sliding down his cheeks as he looked at his
poor granddaughter screaming her lungs out for help.
He knew help won come because the servants and guards in the house have been bought. He just found out a few days ago
that he had been living with a deadly poison in his body when he started to cough out black blood.
He called his doctor to the house and his doctor told him he was only stressed and that nothing was wrong with him. The old
man didn believe his doctor and that was when he started to suspect that enemies were lurking around them.
econds. She would stand up and pace around for a while then return to her bench to sit.
Her exercise continued like that for five hours until the operation room door dinged open.
She rushed to the doctors who walked out with their nose masks on and asked in a frantic voice: ”Doctor, how is my
grandfather? ”
The doctor sighed and shook his head, ”Im sorry, young Miss, your grandfather couldn make it. The poison had destroyed his
organs and... Miss Jeslyn! ”
The doctors immediately supported her limp body before she touched the floor and helped her into a VIP room.
Jeslyn opened her eyes to a white room and heard a beeping sound. She turned to her right where the beeping sound was
coming from and saw the monitor producing the sound. That was when she registered she was in the hospital.
She tried to sit upright but felt a needle pricking her wrist. She looked down at her wrist and it was an injection needle connected
to a thin pipe. She sighed before sitting with her head resting on the wall.
It so happened that the TV screen in front of her was on and a funeral scene was being played.
She frowned when she saw a few familiar faces, and then the ones that hit her right on the core were Ray and Christine.
Christine was being held by Ray. Now thats not her problem. However, why is she seeing Christine crying so much while looking
at... wait, her grandfathers picture?!
At that moment, Jeslyns mind turned cold. Shiver ran down her spine as memories flooded her mind. She forcefully pulled out
the needle from her wrist, totally disregarding the fact that the drip was not finished.
She pulled away the white cover from her body and got down from the bed.
Taking her first step towards the door, pain hit her hard in the head but she ignored it and staggered out of the room barefooted.
While she was walking along the corridors, everyone she bumped into either gave her weird looks or pointed fingers at her, yet,
that wasn her concern. She was too carried away to notice anyone.
She got to the road but found no taxi. However looking up, the billboards were playing her grandfathers funeral.
Inside a black inconspicuous car speeding across the road, Rex could be seen trying to force the groom to tell him who he got
married to, but the groom was adamant about keeping mum.
”Brother, so you aren going to tell me who you got married to? Your lil brother wants to know. Tell me and I promise Ill zip my lips.
” He made a lip-sealing gesture.
The groom sneered, ”sure, Ill resurrect from the dead if a parrot like you could keep shut for two minutes. ” He answered with his
eyes closed.
”Aai, brother, don be like that. I might be a parrot but– ”
”Screech!!! ”
”What the f*ck! ” Rex cursed after hitting his head on his brothers palm, thanks to the driver holding brake without warning.
Rex was about to hit his head on his brothers shoulder, but the groom was quick enough to stop his head with his palm.
”Hey, what the hell is wrong with you?! If you can drive them you are fired! ” Rex yelled at the driver in frustration.
”Im sorry young master, it wasn my fault, a crazy woman ran into the road. ” The driver apologized.
”Then run her over. ” Came the grooms annoyed voice.
