Chapter 605 You Don't Even Know You've Been Sold
Lottie's breathing became a little heavier as she carefully sized up Jessica. C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
"Lincoln? When did he come to you?"
"About two or three months ago..."
Lottie's expression turned grave in an instant, and a thought came to her.
"You don’t say..."
"I know what you're thinking, but the baby in my belly has nothing to do with him."
"Thank God."
Lottie couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
If it was really Lincoln's child, then this matter would be a little difficult to resolve.
After all, Lincoln was more or less an enemy to them.
If Ralph had known that Lincoln had such a secret, he might have wanted to make use of it.
But on the other hand, the child was innocent. And Jessica was their friend.
That would be terrible.
Fortunately, the child was not Lincoln's.
"However, the child's father does have something to do with Lincoln."
Lottie felt worried again all of a sudden.
Such sense made her feel uncomfortable all over.
"Well..."
Jessica lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Lottie.
With her eyes wandering, she touched her belly for a moment and finally made a decision.
"I want to abort it."
Lottie was confused.
She looked at Jessica with a complicated expression. "As a friend, I actually hope that you can make
this decision. As a single mother, it's not easy to make it in the industry."
Jessica looked relaxed. Obviously, she also had such concerns.
"And you don't know who the father of the child is. It's not fair for the child nor you."
The lack of a father would have a great impact on the child.
A child should also be the result of love. Raising them shouldn't be Jessica's responsibility alone.
However, after saying so much, she finally asked, "Are you willing? At that time, I mean."
Jessica fell silent.
This was a very tough question.
She knew that if Jessica had wanted to abort this child from the very beginning, she wouldn't have lied
in front of her and forced Violet to leave.
She must have thought about how to keep this child and had tried her best to do so.
"Since this child has something to do with Lincoln, and after I think about what you just did, I guess he
will use this child to threat you?"
Jessica gave a wry smile.
"You're really smart."
She had guessed everything.
"More than two months ago, I didn't know you at that time."
Jessica began to narrate her past.
At that time, to escape from the marriage, she came to Rexwell alone.
To pursue the so-called dream of being an idol she signed herself into a media company.
She only had a general understanding of Rexwell from her grandfather's words and knew that it was a
city full of opportunities.
Her grandfather said that as long as a person kept working hard for their goal, he would finally succeed
there.
And so she believed.
She had thought that she would sacrifice her dream and happiness for the sake of her family and get
married.
But in the end, she ran away.
She wanted to decide her destiny. Even if she would fight against the whole world, she would not give
in.
At that time, Jessica was so naive and full of hope for everything.
But the reality soon taught her a painful lesson.
"My wallet and passport were stolen at the airport."
Jessica was still indignant when she thought of it.
If she had any other ways to go, she would not have made such a hasty decision.
She would not sink into the trouble step by step and now regret it so much.
Lottie frowned. "You can ask the airport staff for help or call the police when you lost your stuff."
There were cameras in the airport. She could usually take things back.
Especially because Jessica was a foreigner, the police should pay more attention and tried their best to
help her.
Jessica said, "But I escaped from the wedding. I was afraid that I would attract too much attention, and
then my family would find me. They would take me back."
Lottie was speechless.
In fact, she was too cautious. The world was big enough that no one would guess exactly that you had
run to Rexwell at the very moment.
"I was too panicked at that time. In the end, I sat at the exit and cried desperately. Someone handed
me a business card."
Lottie was surprised. "Lincoln?"
"No, no, I haven't met him yet."
"As I said, he is not the kind of person who gives his business card to every good-looking girl."
Although Jessica was still unusually upset, she almost laughed out loud when he heard those words.
However, she just smiled a little.
"One of the persons who gave me the business cards is the owner of the hotel. He asked me if I want
to live there. And the other one is my former agent."
The agent said that he was from IN Media and was now looking for a potential artist for some variety
show. He thought Jessica was very pretty, and he couldn't help but come over to ask her.
Jessica was so nervous that she accidentally mistook IN Media for EE Media.
Before SFLE Media was acquired, it was called EE media, one of the largest and most experienced
entertainment companies in the country.
Jessica was shocked.
She only felt that there must always be a way out.
She happened to pursue her dream here. If she had a chance to get on the variety show, it would be a
good thing for her!
After she heard what Jessica said, Lottie felt that it was absurd.
"Have you ever seen a formal agency would pick up some random girl at the airport for a show?" She
hated herself for not being able to live up to her expectations. She was so disappointed with Jessica for
her muddle that she pointed at her forehead and said, "How naive you are! You had no idea what could
possibly be on his mind."
Jessica was not convinced and retorted, "I put forward my terms and even checked his ID card at that
time!"
After confirming that he was an agent indeed and had a way to help her get on a variety show, she
agreed to go with him.
Of course, the agent had indeed lied to her.
When Jessica arrived at the company, she found that she had been deceived. She was stopped by his
agent when about to leave.
The agent had already figured out her situation very clearly on the way. He knew that she was
penniless and did not dare to call the police. There was no place for her to go now.
The agent took out several thousand dollars and handed it to Jessica.
He also told her that although they were just a small company, they had all the necessary procedures.
He said that he was really optimistic about Jessica and thought that she would definitely stand out in
the variety show.
Then, the agent took her to the office to meet the boss of the company.
The boss showed her all kinds of certificates, and she could even find out the company's information
online. They did have one or two famous stars.
After Jessica read all those documents, heard what her agent and boss said, and thought about her
situation, she finally had no choice but to stay. But she still signed a special contract with her agency
with great caution.
Jessica was not stupid. Of course, she should try her best to protect her own interests.
After she heard it all, Lottie was still confused. "So, how did you end up meeting Lincoln?"
Jessica's expression became gloomy.
