Chapter 158
I didn't feel surprised at all. I felt no emotions either.
Wherever Ryan was present, she behaved like a dog eyeing a meat bun, nothing she did would be surprising.
Ryan's face darkened slightly, his voice cold. "I'm not thirsty anymore."
"How come you're not thirsty anymore? Charlotte just said she would feed
you...
Jessica's face frowned in confusion, then she muttered to herself, "Well, she doesn't understand you like I do. She can't tell when you want something."
With that, she set the glass aside.
I had been worried about Ryan's injury and hadn't found a good opportunity to ask about Jessica's situation. Now, an opportunity presented itself. I couldn't let it slip away.
I looked at Ryan and curved my lips slightly. "Regarding her, have you made up your mind?"
'You said that you would consider it during the day, so by now you should have reached a decision," though.
"What? What are y
you talking about?" Jessica, understanding that the "she" in my words referred to herself, spoke with suspicion. Ryan glanced at me with gentle eyes and a faint smile. "Are you a little too quick to change sides? I'm still a patient." "But she isn't anymore." I mocked Jessica with a glance.
She had fainted in the hospital during the day, but now she walked over on her own without mentioning any pain.
It was remarkable recovery.
However, I also understood that the cut during the day wasn't deep. As someone who cherishes life, she wouldn't give herself a wound that could endanger her life.
Then, I spoke calmly, "Ryan, you know more about this matter than anyone else. I won't let it go easily. If you don't agree, I'll handle her myself!"
Ryan furrowed his brow slightly. "I agree."
"When?" I pressed for an answer.
Jessica, still confused, shook Ryan's arm. "Ryan, what are you two talking about? Why can't I understand anything?"
Ryan's injury was in his shoulder blade area, causing him to frown more intensely with pain. His voice chilled. "Let go!" "Okay..."
Being shouted at by Ryan in front of me, Jessica felt a bit embarrassed and complained coquettishly.
Fine, I get it. Don't have a go at me! What exactly are you two talking about?"
I couldn't stand her like this, so I smiled ambiguously. "We were talking about sending you abroad. Do you want to go to Manya or Laost? If you prefer, Indast is also an option. Oh, the Frost family will only provide you with a one-way ticket. You'll have to manage all the expenses after you you get there. Good luck."
Jessica was stunned, becoming increasingly bewildered as she listened, her face growing paler. Finally, she looked incredulously at Ryan, "Ryan, she's lying to me, right? How could you send me to that kind of place... and completely abandon me?"
For her, this was undoubtedly worse than death.
Having relied on the Frost family since childhood and developed a habit of living extravagantly, now
having to earn money in a foreign country where she doesn't speak the language.... It would be torture worse than death.
Ryan stared at her, his eyes dark and unreadable, but he gave a definitive answer. "She's not lying."
Tears welled up in Jessica's eyes, trembling as she shook her head. "No... no, you can't... Please, I don't want to go so far from you! You clearly promised to take care of me, why are you listening to her now!"
Ryan's voice turned cold. "Whether you go or not is not up to you. I originally planned to wait for you to recover for a while before considering this matter, but seeing you're already lively and energetic, it should be done in these two days."
"Gary, book her a flight no later than the day after tomorrow. Let her choose from the destinations Charlotte mentioned."
"Yes, Mr. Frost."NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
Jessica looked at him incredulously, tears streaming down her face. "Ryan, I said I won't go, didn't you hear... Please, I don't want to be so far away from you! You promised to take care of me, why are you listening to her now!"
