Chapter 98 He Was Responsible For Protecting Her (Part One)

Jessie had been sitting in Jeremy's car for a while, but one look at his cold expression had her tongue-tied.

"Umm...Are you hungry? Let's go to dinner!" Her overly cheery voice sounded grating in his ears, and as soon as she tried to touch his hand, Jeremy felt blood rush to his head, and he let out a wild snarl.

Before he realized what he was doing, his hands were wringing her delicate neck, and he was reveling in the pitiful choking noises that she was making. "Shut up!" he roared in her face.

Everything happened so fast that Jessie could only stare at him with wide, frightened eyes, as she struggled to breathe. When he finally let her go, she scrambled to lean as far away from him as she could, properly chastised for touching him without permission. She did not dare to speak.

After a long moment of silence, Jeremy's phone rang. He picked it up expressionlessly, but his charming voice was a sharp contrast to his face. "Hello?"

"Mr. Ou! Some people went to your house just now and pried open the door, then a man carried a woman out. She was covered in blood!"

The call was from the community's security department. When Chester broke into Sherry's apartment with his men, the security guards noticed.

Sherry's clothes must have been soaked in blood water, which would have terrified the innocent guards. It was no surprise that they hurriedly called him.

"What did you say?" he asked between gritted teeth, his phone clenched in his hands so tightly that his fingertips had turned white from the pressure.

"Mr. Ou, they should be in the nearest hospital. You'd better go there as soon as possible. In the meantime, we sent someone to take care of your apartment."

The guards on the other side sounded terrified that a murder happened on their watch, and they were probably afraid that he would sue them or something.

After he thanked the guards for informing him, Jeremy turned off his phone and stared at the road ahead. His mind was still reeling from the news.

And although Jessie was still afraid of him, she noticed that his expression had turned from angry to thoughtful, so she could not help but ask, "What happened?"

That was all it took for Jeremy to remember that she was still in the car, and he turned to her and

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex.

To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him.

"As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses."

She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women.

Eventually she stormed off after she learned that he had betrayed her again.But life brought her back to him a few years later, to his astonishment.

husband at all!" Chester shouted scornfully.

At these words, Jeremy saw red, and he reared back all of a sudden and punched Chester, hitting him in the face.

Beisy gasped in shock and hurried between them, her hands outstretched to stop them. "Mr. Ou, Sherry is still in the operating room. Please calm down!"

However, Jeremy was like a bull that had seen a red flag, and without remorse, he picked Beisy up and threw her aside. "She is my woman! This has nothing to do with you!"

With that, he threw another punch towards Chester, but this time, Chester caught it mid-way and held it tight enough to bruise.

"What have you done to her? How dare you call her your wife? Do you know what I saw when I found her at your home? Blood! The whole bathtub looked like it was overflowing with her blood!"

As he spoke, he flashed back to that moment where there was so much blood everywhere, and for a moment, he was terrified that he had come too late.

"How awful were you that she chose to commit suicide rather than stay married to you? This is the most extreme way to solve a problem," Chester said in astonishment, shaking his head.

Jeremy opened his mouth but closed it again when he realized that he had no explanation for this.

For the first time in his life, he felt powerless to refute.

"You have nothing to say? Let me tell you, Jeremy. If anything happens to her, I will never forgive you!" Chester warned him, squeezing Jeremy's fist that was still in his hand before he threw it aside.
