Chapter 230 - 230. Living Happily.

Jason looked up from his computer it was already almost noon, why did he feel like he was somehow always away from Jessie? For some reason they couldn't be together for long. Now he promised to get her before morning but even if he did, could he just abandon her to come work? 

Even though he hated it so much, at least with Jonathan she wouldn't be lonely right? His gaze settled on his phone at arm reach before him, should he call her?

Immediately the phone started ringing it stopped, his lips upturned in a frown and he called again. 

**************************************************

Jessie laughed nervously as she reached out for her phone from Celeste, "it seems urgent can I answer it?" She asked.

The older woman confiscated it claiming it was rude to take calls at a dinner table. She insisted she wanted Jessie's undivided attention. 

"No, you can't." She refused.

"Can you at least tell me who it is? I didn't get a chance to see the caller ID." She asked.

Celeste pressed the side button and turned the phone off. "It only makes you tempted. Besides, I l would like to think you need the distraction, even if it's temporarily." She said.

Jessie gave up the argument, she didn't even want to keep on arguing. She was surprised how well she was hitting it off with Celeste, it made her badly miss her own mother. She was so attentive to Jonathan and still she didn't allow her feel left out. It was nice.

**************************************************

Patricia almost laughed at the absurdity of the situation. As she looked at the pictures spread out before her, Jessie Marin. She scoffed, from one Kang brother to the other. Not that she was complaining though as far as she stayed far away from Jason they wouldn't be a problem but then there was. 

No one was really talking about her scandal anymore, and it pissed her the heck off. She used months and months of planning to get her into such hot water, how dare they forget so soon? Jessie still had it easy, nothing really had happened to her yet. This wasn't the end, and she would make sure she suffers so much death would begin to seem like the only option.

She reached towards her table and picked up her phone, "what are you thinking?" Mary asked.

"What do you think? I'm going to make good use of this pictures. Now shush, I have a call to make." 

"Hello?" 

"Hello Amanda, I have exciting news for you. But you have to keep it secret and under wraps, as to how you got the information." Patricia informed her.

"Oooh you're making me excited what is this news!" Amanda asked almost squealing.

"I just sent you some pictures check you mail box." She said.

"Wait... isn't this-"

"Yeah, Jessie Marin. Having the time of her life after ending the lives of others. Doesn't seem fair now does it?" Patricia asked.

"Who is that she's beside?" Amanda asked. "He looks vaguely familiar."

"Of course he does, that's Jonathan Kang." She replied.

"Kang? Asin, of KE holdings?" Amanda gasped. "What's he doing with Jessie Marin?" 

Patricia lips curved into a wicked and sinister smile. "What does it look like? They are on a date." She smiled. 

"Wow this is rich, but if I may ask why are you giving this to me?" Amanda asked.

"What do you mean? You're my dear friend, aren't you?" Patricia asked in a sweet voice.

"Of course you are but that's what I'm asking, you insist that Jessie is a good friend of yours and not only that. This story is going to wreck KE holdings, aren't you engaged to that family?" Amanda asked obviously. 

"How can I cover this up? Yes Jessie is my friend but she killed people and is living happily because somehow she was acquited of her charges how does that seem fair?" Patricia asked. "And yes this is going to shake KE holdings but I'm sure Jason would have done the exact same thing in my shoes." She continued. "He is a good man." 

"Wow, are you Buddha? How are you real?" Amanda asked. "Don't worry about it, no one will knows about your involvement." 

"Perfect." 

**************************************************

"Your mom is the nicest person on earth." Jessie said as they pulled out of the restaurant drive way. 

"Right? You certainly had a nice time." He laughed.

"You know I always wondered why you saved me back then, when we first met. But you're like her, kind." She said, looking at him with a serious gaze. 

"Don't look at me like that." Jonathan stated curtly. 

"Like how?" 

"Just, like that. It makes me want to pull up and kiss the hell out of you." He stated bluntly. 

The statement initially produced shock as her cheeks reddened until she was able to blink away her surprise and shy away from him. Pulling out her phone from her purse she finally turned it on.

"I'm sure Jason is already burning your house down looking for me." She teased.

"Don't make such serious joke, it actually sends shivers down my spine because he is capable." Jonathan replied lightly as well and they both laughed. As soon as the phone turned on a call came in.

"Wow, it's Jason." She laughed, clearing her throat she answered the call.

"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?!" He yelled into the phone.

Jessie had to pull the phone away from her ears, "with Jonathan why are you overreacting all of a sudden?" 

"Jessie it's not safe, you're not safe and neither is Jonathan!" He said quickly his voice frantic.

"What? Why aren't we safe? What happened?" She asked her heart beat quickening. 

Suddenly the car jerked and started moving faster. "Jonathan?! Why are you driving so fast?" Jessie gasped.

"It's, it's not me!" He exclaimed, pessing down the brakes. Next thing the doors unlocked and locked. And the speed increased even faster. 

"It's hacked! The car is hacked!" Jonathan yelled in shock. 

"What?! Doesn't that like happen only in movies? Can it really happen?" Jessie asked, her voice mirroring her trembling heart.

"Ofcourse it can! Look the bike after us." Jonathan said. 

Jessie turned around and there was indeed a bike after them, "Jessie? What's going on? Where are you guys now?!" Jason yelled through the speaker.

"I don't... I don't know! Who are those people? Why are they doing this?" She asked her voice breaking into small sobs.

"That doesn't matter, calm down and tell me where you are!" He asked again.

"I don't know!" She screamed, unable to think coherent thoughts.

"Where just getting off the highway, heading toward the subway intersection. I'm going to try to lose them, if we get far away enough we might be able to break the connection. " Jonathan explained to Jason.

"You're going to go faster?!" Jessie screamed. 

"That's the only way! That's the only thing working!" He yelled back.

Jonathan turned to look at her for a millisecond not seeing the road blocks and stones thrown into the road. 

"AHHHH!!!" 

With the speed they where driving with the car was tossed into the air, sommersaulting down the road.

"Jessie! Jessie!" Jason shouts where heard from the speaker, the only thing head from the silence that came after the car finally stopped. 

Still slightly conscious, she struggled to reach her phone, her hand throbbing wickedly with the shards of glass embedded in it. 

Her consciousness like Jonathan's began to fade and the last things she saw were boots, walking towards the car. 

The car door was ripped open and someone unclasped her seat belt and pulled her out of the passenger's seat. 

She tried to speak, willing anything to come out of her mouth but she couldn't make the air leave her lungs. She felt the stiff ground underneath her head as she was laid backwards on the tar. Before she could see the face of the black cald rescuer everything became black.

**************************************************

"Jessie!" Jason screamed into the phone, literally about to loose his mind.

"Wha happened? What happened to her?!" Krystal asked behind him.

"Jason?" Paul called him from behind as he stood in moving his back to both of them. Next thing he did was grab a glass vase and toss it as hard as he could.

"Find her, find her!" He yelled at the guards in his office. "I swear if anyone so much as lays a finger on Jessie I will kill them!!" 

"We found the car!" Matt stated quickly as he busted into the office.

They all looked up and at Matt. "An ambulance is already there, there was an accident. Jonathan is currently headed to the hospital."

"And Jessie?" Krystal asked.

"She's missing, she wasn't in the car when the ambulance got there." He said slowly. 

And just as slowly they turned around to face Jason just in time to see him turning over his massively heavy desk. And just in time to flee out of the way. He looked absolutely livid and enraged. 

"WHERE THE HELL IS SHE?!!"
