Chapter 58 Bitter Love
Chapter 58 Bitter Love
Outside the window, the stars were shining in the dark sky.
Seeing that Jessie was in silence, Rachel felt a little embarrassed and didn't know what to say. What she hated most was to deliberately find a topic. If there was nothing to talk about, she would definitely leave. But now it wasn't the case.
Now, she had to do something! !
No, if they still kept silent like this, she must go crazy.
She must find a topic, a topic, and a topic!
"Jessie, can I ask you a question?" Jessie nodded. Rachel continued, "I have never been in love before. You are older than me, you must know how it feels if you like someone, right? Can you tell me?"
Jessie was stunned.
How did it feel if you like someone?
"If you like someone, when you see him, you heart will beat faster. You want to see him every day, want to know what is he doing and want to stay with him every second."
"Oh, I see. What about love?"
"Love?" Jessie looked down and didn't say a word.
Had she ever loved someone?
She didn't think so.
She had thought that she would be so angry about those things because she loved Bill. But when she saw him again, she found that she wasn't angry at all. She didn't care about it anymore.
She was angry just because she felt pity about their old times.
If both of them had took one more step, things wouldn't have been like this today.
"I've never loved anyone. I don't know what it feels like." Jessie said with a slight sadness in her eyes.
'Never loved anyone?' Rachel was stunned. If she didn't fall in love with anyone, what about Mark?
"What about Mark? Can you swear that you have never liked him at all?"
'Did I?'
Jessie felt confused. If he was just M, the young master of the manor, she did like him. However, if he was Mark, the third son of the Lan family, she didn't.
Seeing that Jessie didn't say a word, Rachel said, "You do love Mark, right? Even if you denied, you can cheat us, but you can't hide from your heart. I know it was Mark's fault to use two identities to approach you, but you have to put yourself in his position. If you were him, would you reveal your identity?
Every time you are in danger, he always came to you in the first place! If he didn't care about you or love you, why did he bother to save a person who had nothing to do with him! Maybe something is wrong in a short time, but the love for another person can't be expressed in a short time. You two had experienced a lot. I don't believe you can't feel it."
Jessie kept silent. Seeing that she still didn't want to say anything, Rachel was enraged.
She asked loudly, "What are you doing here, Jessie? Why don't you say it directly? You always conceal yourself. Don't you know we all feel very bad? What are you running away from? If you do love Mark, you will love him unconditionally no matter who he is. But if you don't love him, why are you always flirting with him? What do you mean? You only care about yourself. You never tried to care about Mark. You are selfish!"
"I..." Jessie raised her head and was speechless.
Indeed, she was trying to run away from reality. She didn't know what to do and how to solve the problem. She was not angry with Mark now. She was angry with herself.
Mark and her brother! She had to choose one of them. She didn't want any of them to be hurt. She was scared and hesitant. She really didn't know what to do now.
If possible, she would rather die.
No matter what Rachel said, Jessie still kept quiet. Rachel had no choice but left. Before she left, she said to Jessie, "I hope you can think it over carefully."
When Rachel went downstairs, she saw John, Carl and Caleb. They all came. They all looked very serious. It seemed that they were also discussing something important.
She walked to them and said to Mark, "I'm sorry. I was going to comfort her. But I was so angry that I blamed your wife. I guess she is in a bad mood now."
Mark glared at her. Rachel felt scared and hid behind Nick, yelling, "Be a gentle man. If you dare to beat me, I'll tell my dad!"
Everyone laughed.
At this moment, a servant ran to them hurriedly and reported, "Mr. Mark, something was wrong with Mrs. Jessie! She fainted."
Suddenly, Mark stood up and rushed upstairs.

"Derek. How is she?"
Derek, Carl's doctor, he was a famous highly skilled doctor from the underworld. Many people that had been announced death were saved by him.
At first, because Derek was a man, Mark had refused to let him check Jessie's situation. But Carl persuaded him, he reluctantly agreed.
"The wound on Mrs. Jessie's forehead is not serious. Her abdomen is impacted by external force and she had metroptosis. She has to be well healed, otherwise it will affect her future pregnancy. Actually, there is nothing more serious than the poison in her body. She passed out because of it."
The poison was mixed with dozens of different toxins. It was colorless and tasteless. After being poisoned, people will have no obvious reaction. People who was poisoned will have occasional drowsiness, lose consciousness, and anorexia. Gradually, people would become weaker and weaker, until their organs were depleted and their brain was insufficient for blood supply and died.
"Being poisoned? How could she be poisoned?" Mark asked.
"As Miss Rachel said, Mrs. Jessie had went to MR. She didn't take isolation measures in advance. I think Mrs. Jessie inhaled the poison in the air through her respiration. This poison slowly erodes human's organs through blood, causing short blood supply in the brain, and then people will be died.
Generally speaking, it is not easy to find out that the person is died due to the poison. It doesn't have any special symptom. Most of the people dead would be announced as sudden death."
"Then what should we do now? Is there any antidote?"
Derek shook his head. He was also trying to study the antidotes. He also treated several people who escaped from MR, but all of them were dead. If there was antidote, he didn't want to see them die one by one. He was sad and frustrated.
What Derek had said was the death notice of Jessie. She would only have 3 months left. If she was lucky, she could only live for half a year. Was she really going to die?
Mark didn't believe it. He was a person who would never give up his destiny. There was nothing he couldn't do as long as he wanted to!
His finger gently stroked her fair face. Sitting at the bedside, Mark looked at her quietly, with his heart throbbing.
Jessie, don't be afraid. I'm here with you. I won't let you leave me like this.
You're my wife, my only wife in my life. I'll try my best to keep you alive.
He lowered his head and kissed on her soft lips, then got up. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
My dear, wait for me!
