Chapter 821: What's Your Reason?

James lowered his head, looking at Jessica. When he saw Jessica's firm and confident impression, he had a mixed feeling. He wanted to laugh, but he didn't let her go, so he was unhappy about it.

James asked in a low voice, "What's your reason?"

"Reason? Because I heard that you killed my grandfather and took my family members apart. Can I tell you I knew it? I just heard about it, but I can't prove," Jessica pursed her lips but kept silent.

Thus, Jessica decided not to tell James the truth. However, James wouldn't pass it, but still looking at her and waiting for her answer.

Five minutes passed, Jessica had to say something, but she just asked in a very low voice, just like a small ant, "Can I keep it?"

"It seems that you can't," James answered. He wanted to know what happened.

Jessica paused and turned to look at Erin naturally. James also looked at Erin.

Erin's face turned dark all of a sudden. She's got a bad feeling.

Erin reminded Jessica that James killed her grandfather at the party.

"So, that's why Jessica put the sleeping powder into the dumplings and wanted to escape from here?" thought Erin.

Erin breathed hurriedly. She attempted to guide Jessica to recall what she said to Jessica, so she said, "Miss. Clifford, you want to leave because you missed your family members?"

Jessica shook her head. What Erin said reminded her something as if Erin once said something to her.

"Aren't you getting used to living there?"

"No," Jessica shook her head violently, and her head got hurt as if it were a craniotomy. A doctor was using a scalpel to slice her head.

"I can help you. I can also help you save your elder brother, but you should get away from James," Erin once said. When Jessica suddenly remembered, she's got such a bad headache that she had to close her eyes, leaned her head against James's chest, and panted.

James immediately stretched his hand and wanted to touch her forehead, asking whether she felt uncomfortable.

But, at that time, Jessica said, "I remembered."

James stopped, and his hand was hanging in the air. Then he made a fist and put his hand down, asking, "What do you remember?"

Jessica frowned hard, leaning against James softly to support herself.

"I remembered my grandfather…"

James held Jessica tight, and his temple jumped violently.

"Grandpa? What do you remember?"

Jessica just shook her head and leaned against James without saying a word.

When Erin heard Jessica called grandpa, she slightly raised her eyebrows and knew Jessica remembered that James killed her loved ones. Thus, Erin said to herself, "So, that could be a reason why Jessica hates James and put the sleeping powder into the dumplings," Erin was excited to make such an inference.

Therefore, Erin interrupted Jessica and said to James, "I guessed that Miss. Clifford remembered how her grandpa died."

James looked serious and cold, holding Jessica tight as if Jessica would leave him alone.

"I can't stop it. Finally, Jessica knew it. I indeed killed her grandpa. It is my fault," thought James.

James also had a headache. He called her, "Jessica Clifford. Let me say something."

"No, I don't want to hear," Jessica covered her ears with both hands and repeated, "No, I don't want to hear."

"James, don't stimulate her. Otherwise, it would be worse," Erin pretended to be worried though she was happy to see it, "If she can't get good treatment, the depression will even threaten her health. I suggest you send her back home first."

Erin raised her head to see James's expression. Although she was not sure whether James would accept her advice, James looked terrible, and Erin believed that James must follow her advice for Jessica's sake.

Thus, Erin dared to add, "Moreover, she can't accept the fact still. I guess that depression will get worse."

"Shut up!" James interrupted Erin loudly with anger.

Jessica was frightened and shook.

"Sorry, you are scared because of me," James pressed and rubbed her temples with his fingers, "It hurts?"

Jessica didn't push James away because she knew it would be useless. She just nodded weakly, but she felt better after James rubbed.

Erin felt that she lost face. It was the second time that James reprimanded her for Jessica's sake as if she were an animal.

Erin glared at Jessica as if her eyes could spew poison.

However, James was rubbing the temples for Jessica gently and attentively. Erin had never seen it before. James had never treated a woman like this.

Erin became crazy, saying vaguely, "James, aren't afraid that she will take revenge?"

James stopped rubbing Jessica's temples, turning to Erin, "Do you want to take revenge?"

Erin lowered her head with guilt, regretting saying the word "revenge" because it sounded a bit provocative.

Erin was too eager to persuade James to send Jessica back.

However, James wasn't in a rage but looked calm as if he realized something.

Then James raised the corner of his mouth, staring at Jessica and asked seriously, "Miss. Clifford, do you want to take revenge?"

Jessica raised her head and got up the courage to look at James with a blank expression.

It was true that Jessica had planned to take revenge, but she got no chance to do it. James was a powerful man, so it was hard for Jessica to take revenge.

Jessica usually felt helpless concerning her miserable family members.

Thus, when James asked whether she wanted to take revenge, she was panicked. She didn't know why James asked her such a question.

"Is it a kind of test? Or something else?"

Jessica just recovered, but now she had a headache again.

She stared at James with a blank expression, and her face turned pale, saying to herself, "Would he let me go?"

Finally, Jessica nodded carefully.

Erin immediately said, "James, I said she is dangerous. She intently poisons you for taking revenge. Let's call the police. She is mad. It is too dangerous. Yes! Call the police. Yes," Erin hurried to ask a maid to bring her handbag.
