Stay Away My CEO Ex Husband Angel Lost

Chapter 9



Chapter 9 An eye for an eye
Jennifer had planned that in three months, she would be gone from this world, and by the time Brian wanted to enforce their
deal, there would only be a handful of ashes.
Now that he had shortened the time to three days, she had some difficulty accepting it. She was about to say something else
when Brian suddenly let go of her.
Jennifer, who finally had a chance to catch her breath, swallowed the words that were coming out of her mouth. She had
managed to avert the night’s disaster, anyway.
“Baby.” Brian bent down and planted a fierce kiss on her cheek. “I’ll be back to pick you up in three days.”
Jennifer covered the cheek he had kissed. The only thing she felt for him was intense disgust. In front of him, however, she held
back and pretended to be a good girl, nodding her head.
Seeing that she was so obedient, Brian let go of her and walked toward the door, and just as he reached it, he suddenly paused
again.
“Right.” He turned, and looked at Jennifer meaningfully, “Honey, your best friend’s name is Carley, right?”
Jennifer’s face, which had been forced to be calm, suddenly
sank.
That Brian actually knew Carley meant he had already done a background check on her.
This feeling of being checked out made Jennifer uncomfortable.
She asked with a cold face, “What’s wrong?”
Brian hooked his lips and laughed lightly, “Nothing. Just to remind you to be good and wait for me at home. Don’t make yourself
scarce.”
Brian didn’t say the threat out loud, but Jennifer heard it loud and clear. If she dared to run away, he would go after Carley. An
overwhelming sense of powerlessness once again swept through her.

Jennifer, somewhat desperately, let go of her clenched fist. She said with an expressionless face, “Leave her alone. I’ll wait for
you at home.”
It was then that Brian gave her a flying kiss, “My baby is so good.”
Jennifer slammed the door shut, locked it, and walked quickly into the bathroom.
She turned on the faucet, lay down in the tub, grabbed the bath ball, and frantically scrubbed the places Brian had kissed and
touched.
She scrubbed until her skin was red, yet she still felt filthy.
She washed desperately until the nausea slowly dissipated and she calmed down.
Brian had used Carley to threaten her. She could not escape, and if she could not quickly think of a way, she would certainly be
toyed with to death in three days.
Jennifer thought of this and got up in a hurry. She wrapped herself in a bath towel, went back to the bedroom, picked up the
phone, and tried to call the police. However, thinking of Brian’s attitude, she gritted her teeth and endured.
She didn’t care if she crashed and burned with him. It wasn’t like she was going to be around for much longer, anyway.
But Carley was different; she was about to get married.
She couldn’t let her impulse drag Carley down with her.
Jennifer stood in the same place and thought for a long time. In the end, she flipped through the address book until she finally
paused on a blacked-out phone number.
When she saw the familiar name on it, her heart couldn’t help but start to thump.
This was the only person who could fight against Brian, but he didn’t want her anymore. Would he answer when she called?
Jennifer hesitated for a long, long time, but eventually did not have the courage to make the call.
She was very familiar with Shaun’s temperament. Once he got tired of playing with his things, he would never look back. If she
called to beg him, he might mistake it for her pestering him.

Since she had chosen to leave with dignity, she could not bother him again.
Within the next couple of days, Jennifer went to get her keys fitted and also went to the hospital to get some medication for her
treatment.
The attending physician recommended that she be
hospitalized until a suitable heart source became available, which Jennifer refused.
She was born with a congenital heart condition and had
artificial bypass surgery, which improved it a lot.
However, about five years ago, she was kicked hard in the chest twice, and since then, there had been signs of failure again.
Non-stop infusions and medication failed to control the outbreak.
In the first few months, advanced symptoms of heart failure, such as edema and inability to breathe, were present. Jennifer knew
her days were numbered and had long stopped hoping for the right heart.
The medications she took were all to suppress pain and
edema.
She thought, “I’ve been obsessed with cleanliness and beauty all my life. I can’t die too ugly.”
After she used her medicine, she put a Mace spray and small electric batons she had bought in advance into her bag. She had
not managed to come up with a good idea, so she had chosen to fight with Brian. The worst-case scenario would be one life for
the other, and no one would be better off.
