Elena’s eyes twinkled slightly and guiltily as she said, “I don’t know!”
Glancing at Elena, Jackson pulled out his cell phone and made a phone call to his assistant. “Find out which hospital Vanessa’s Dad is hospitalized in!”
Elena bit her lower lip in grievance and asked softly, “Jackson, did you choose Lantrie City because of Vanessa?”
Jackson looked closer at Elena and asked in reply, “Am I that superficial in your eyes?”
“That’s not what I meant, but…”
Jackson interrupted, “Lantrie City is the largest economic center in Wolsher, and its economic volume is several times that of Estain City. Who wouldn’t want to seize the market in Lantrie City whenever there is an opportunity?”
“Mmm, Elena answered.
Jackson added, “My breakup with Vanessa was between me and her. But her Dad used to take care of me, and now that he’s sick, I should visit him.”
“Okay, I’ll go with you,” Elena said.
Jackson raised his eyelids to glance at Elena and angrily asked, “So, you’re spying on my whereabouts?”
“No, Jackson. Don’t get me wrong, I…
“Vanessa and I have not been in a relationship for three years, and I know what I’m doing.” Jackson glanced at Elena and warned again, “Don’t bother Mr. Sanchez’s life, or I’ll be rude to you.”
“Jackson, I didn’t do that.”
“You better not!” After Jackson finished his words, he headed out the door.
“Jackson, where are you going?” Elena immediately went after him with her coat and bag
Her face was still covered in fingerprints and with pain, but she could not care about it at the moment.
Jackson turned his head impatiently to Elena. “Do I have to report to you wherever I go? Or how about you hire someone to watch over me 24 hours a day?”
“Jackson, you know that’s not what I meant. I just care about you.” Elena’s heart was filled with sadness.
It had been three years, and although she’d stolen Jackson away from Vanessa, she could not make him love her for a single day.
“I’m very busy, and I have endless clients to see every day. If you’re too free, go back to Estain City and shop with Mom more often. Jackson headed out the door.
“Okay” Looking at Jackson’s back, Elena’s eyes filled with unwillingness.
She knew that although Jackson believed Vanessa betrayed him and broke up with her in a fit of anger, he always had Vanessa in his heart.
Elena had not felt anything abnormal during these three years of living in Estain City.
Now that Jackson had opened his branch to Lantric City, she was panicked.
She must change this passive situation.
But how was she going to change it?
It was hard for her to deal with that bitch, Vanessa. Vanessa refused to leave Lantrie City and threatened her with Keen’s. affairs. It was a real pain in the ass for Elena. If only she were dead…
Dead?
Elena’s eyes twinkled viciously as the word flashed through her mind.
Nowadays, the pace of life is fast, and people die unexpectedly every day.
They might die in car accidents, or in falls, or commit suicide because they could not bear the pressure of life….
Vanessa’s father was sick and dying, and her brother was disabled. Vanessa had been living a very tiring life all these years, and there was a real possibility that she might commit suicide.”
As she was thinking. Elena’s cell phone rang, interrupting her thoughts, and she picked it up impatiently.
It was Jackson’s mother.
Chapter 14
Immediately changing the look on her face to a gentle one, she picked up the phone and said nicely. “Ili, Sarah
“Elena, how are you guys doing in Lantrie City?” Sarah Foster, Jackson’s mother, asked.
“It’s pretty good.”
“That’s great. We’re not in Lantric City, so you must take good care of Jackson’s daily routine. He always forgets to eat when he’s busy with work, so keep an eye on him,” Sarah said.
“Sarah, don’t worry. I’ll take good care of Jackson.”
“With you there, I have no worries. Elena, you and Jackson are not little kids anymore. You’re married, and it’s time to have children.
Elena blushed and said shyly, “I know.”
Thinking that Jackson was reluctant to sleep with her, Elena clenched her teeth and said cheekily, “Sarah, Jackson’s too busy at work, and we don’t have much time together. The matter about children… You know, I can’t make it alone.”
On the other line of the phone, Sarah was silent.
Elena became even more anxious.
And then, she heard Sarah say seriously, “Elena, for us women, children are more important than husbands. Do you understand what I mean?”
“I understand, but Sarah… Jackson, he’s too busy. Elena’s brows were about to knit into twists.
Was it she the one who did not want a kid?
Jackson did not give her a chance at all.
Sarah sighed and added. “Elena, it’s okay to use some extraordinary means sometimes.”
Elena deliberately showed her weakness. “Sarah, I… don’t dare. Jackson has never really liked me. I’m afraid that if he knows, he’ll never want to be with me. Sarah, I really love Jackson very much.”
She once added something to Jackson’s milk.
After Jackson drank it, she was filled with joy and thought Jackson would want her.
As a result, Jackson locked himself in his room and called the doctor.
Since then, Jackson had been even colder to her.
“Good girl, don’t cry. I know that you really love Jackson. I know it all. I’ll help you. Jackson’s birthday will be next week, and I will come over to celebrate together. You have to seize the opportunity at that time,” Sarah said.
“Okay, thank you, Sarah. Thank you.”
Just after hanging up the phone, it suddenly rained outside.
Elena was afraid that Jackson would get wet and immediately went out of Coain Cafe.
William carried Vanessa forward on his back.
Vanessa was lying on William’s back, her arms wrapped around his neck.
There were two cars not far behind them.
Tracy could hardly believe the scene in front of her.
So, William could be nice to her, and he could also be nice to someone else?
Or did he know she was there and was deliberately doing this to anger her?
In the other car, Jackson watched the scene before him with deep eyes.
His grip on the steering wheel could not help but tighten.
“It’s raining. Put me down. Let’s find a place for shelter,” Vanessa said to William.
“We’re about to arrive. William carried Vanessa on his back and picked up his pace toward Lilyville..
It was raining harder.
William jogged with Vanessa on his back.
In just a few minutes, they were completely drenched.
William rushed into the flat building with Vanessa on his back.

Chapter 14
Putting Vanessa down, the two wet people took the elevator to the 12th floor, Room 1203.
William arranged for Ben to buy this house on the day of his and Vanessa’s blind date. It was a second–hand house with exquisite decoration.
He asked Ben to replace all the bedding, curtains, and other items with new ones.
Even if he was pretending to be an ordinary person, he could not stand using the things other people had used.
In addition to bedding, he also asked Ben to prepare some ordinary clothes for him.
The lock on the door was the combination lock Ben changed newly.
William set the code to 123321 for fear of not being easy to remember.
He told Vanessa as he entered the code, “The code is 123321, and this will be your home from now on as well.”
He looked sideways at Vanessa. Her hair was completely clung to her face.
The water droplets rolled down her hair and cheeks and into her clothes along her neck…
William’s gaze suddenly became hot.
