Chapter 150 Love was Selfish
"Sir, we have injected the needle."
"Um. How is she?"
"She has fallen asleep."
Joseph raised his hand and waved. "Back off."
As soon as his men got out of the office, Lawrence came in in a rage.
"Joseph, what have you done to Jessie?"
"Nothing. I just gave her an injection and let her have a good sleep."
"Injection?" Lawrence strode forward, grabbed Joseph by his collar and said in a deep voice, "Didn't I tell you not to touch her? Do you believe that I will shoot you at once?"
Joseph smiled and gently pushed Lawrence's hand away. "Don't be so angry. I know you feel bad for her, so I asked the nurse to give her the injection. Besides, I've reported this to Mr. Ken and he agreed."
"Grandpa?" Lawrence let go of his hand in surprise. How could he agree?
Jessie was his granddaughter. How could he be so cruel to give her that kind of injection?
"Humph! Don't be so cocky! If you dare hurt her again, I will not spare you!" Then Lawrence turned around and walked out of the room.
"Grandpa, why did you agree to give Jessie the injection? You know that the needle has some side effects. You are killing her, aren't you?" Lawrence directly rushed into the study of Ken and left all the etiquette rules behind.
In his eyes, what mattered most was Jessie.
Ken raised his eyes and said coldly, "Lawrence, for a woman, did you forget the respect for seniority?"
"……" Lawrence tried his best to suppress the anger in his heart and returned to calm. "Grandpa, you know, you and Jessie are the most important people to me in my life. I know you are very angry with her now, but she is your granddaughter. Why can't you be lenient? Why do you have to deal with her in such an extreme way?"
"Extreme? I was doing this for her own good. Do you want to see her hurt herself every day?"
"I... Of course not." Lawrence softened, "But she is innocent. Can we stop being so cruel to her?" After all, she really didn't know anything. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
After Jessie failed to escape for several times, she thought of all kinds of ways to force them. At first, they thought that she just wanted to threaten them.
But gradually, she was getting more and more serious to hurt herself. Every day, she would cut her wrists, or scald herself with hot water, or cut on her thighs with knives.
Every day when he went to see her, he saw several more scars on her fair and delicate skin, and several more bruises on her head. His heart was like being cut by a knife.
It hurt a lot.
Although he didn't want to see Jessie torturing herself, he didn't want her to calm down by injection.
After all, the side effects of that thing really hurt a lot.
"Grandpa, please don't use that injection again. I really don't want to see how Jessie will suffer in the future."
"Suffer? If she behaves well, of course I won't do anything to her. But if she..."
"No, I will try my best to persuade her." Definitely, he will.
Ken lowered his eyes and stared at Lawrence. He said, "Lawrence, you have followed me since you were ten years old. It has been more than ten years since then. I know that you can never put Jessie down when you know that she is your nominal fiancée. For all these years, you have been watching her silently and seeing if she was good or not. I know that even if you didn't tell me all these. However, you can't always obey her. As a responsible man, you should think about the woman you love and what kind of life is the best for her. In her heart, Mark was the best to her. She would never let you hurt Mark even if she had to die. Then, you should try to make her understand that the man doesn't deserve her to do anything with heart and soul. You are the one she should love and give with all her heart and soul. Although love should be tolerance and give, it is also selfish."
Lawrence looked down and said nothing.
Was love selfish?
But what's the point of forcing her if she doesn't love him at all?
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will persuade Jessie well." He believed that he was able to persuade Jessie. Anyway, he should try to stop the medicine first. The side effect of the medicine was so terrible. He was really worried that it would have an impact on Jessie.
Ken knew what Lawrence was thinking, but he didn't want to expose him.
After all, Lawrence was very helpful to him.
Lawrence had promised that he would persuade Jessie. So, he believed that Lawrence would do his best. If Jessie could listen to him, that would be a good thing, because he would not need to think of
ways to punish her. But if Lawrence failed, that didn't matter. Anyway, there were many ways to let her give in.
"Did Mark have any movements?" Ken said slowly.
"They've found out the space base station. They are still investigating the source of signal transmission."
"I didn't expect them to be such powerful that they even could find the base station." Ken narrowed his eyes and pursed his lips, lost in thought.
They had carefully designed the base station. Ken didn't expect that they could find it in just a few days.
It seemed that he had underestimated their strength.
After a while, he said, "Ask the people in Eastern Europe to take action. I don't believe these guys can beat me."
On the other side, Mark and John were indeed messed up by this space number.
Even though they had only found the space base station, the source of transmission was so complicated that it almost encircled the whole galaxy.
Every time when they felt they were about to find the source of the transmission, the signal disappeared. And the result was that they should search again and again.
However, they failed to find the source of the transmission.
Slap! John kicked the desk and the whole desk was moved as if there was an earthquake.
Hearing that, Mark opened his eyes slightly. After taking a glance at John, he began rubbing the skin between his eyebrows with his finger.
"Fuck! We have already searched for eight hundred times, but we still haven't found any clue. If I find out the truth, I will kill them all!"
Jeffery sneered, "Then you have to find out the truth first."
"Jeffery, do you want to be beaten?" John was about to explode because of anger. He was the top master in the world in the computer field and never failed in his entire life. Anything that could be investigated by the computer science was a piece of cake for John.
However, this time, failing to find out the source of transmission was really pissing him off.
What the hell was going on!
