Cinderella And Her Beautiful Octuplets
Chapter 121

Chapter 121

Arianna is seen climbing down the stairs. She was with the kids in their room when she heard noises and decided to come see what was going on.

"What's going on?" Arianna asked and both Hannah, Brandon, and Jessica turned to Arianna.

"Jessica, you are back. I have been trying to call you" Arianna said as her eyes came in contact with Jessica.

"You should ask your daughter what she's been doing with Jeff Mikealson," Brandon said and stared at them without saying a word and then walked away.

"Honey, what happened? What are you doing with Jeff Mickelson? I know you went to his house today" Arianna said and Jessica scoffed

"How did you know I was with him at his house? You had me followed?! When I thought today could get any better" Jessica said and sighed softly

"Jessica, you don't have to do what Brandon says. I know Jeff is a monster and he might have hurt you, but you do not have to marry him" Hannah said and tears slipped down Jessica's eyes.

"No, He hurt my feelings, all this time he's been playing me and using me to get to you and Brandon and the company. No, I won't let go just like that, he's going to pay for it" Jessica said as she wiped her tears, stood up, and walked away from them.

Arianna sighed not knowing what to say. Her daughter was feeling hurt. She never wanted Jessica to experience this, now she felt she'd failed as a mother.

"I failed her. I have failed as a mother and a parent. I failed Jessica. I was supposed to make sure she doesn't get hurt" Arianna said sadly and Hannah sat beside her.

"No, don't say that, you didn't fail as a mother, you are the best mother in this world.

Take a look at me, I would still be that girl whom Jeff used years ago, but then you came into my life and helped me.

And Jessica is lucky to have a mother like you.

The wedding is not going to happen, I can stop it if you want me to" Hannah said and Arianna paused for some minutes before she finally spoke.

"No, you are not going to stop the marriage. I want it to happen. Jeff has crossed the line, he's crossed the boundary this time and he's not gonna go Scott free.

He needs to be taken down once and for all, this time for good" Arianna said and Hannah went silent as she didn't know what to say.

Just then the front door opened revealing Micheal Adams.

"Hey, Micheal. I didn't know you would be here" Hannah said as she stood up.

"Yeah, Mrs Mackenzie called me," Micheal said and Hannah turned to Arianna.

"Yes I called him, there's something I want him to do for me," Arianna said and Hannah nodded and then turned to Micheal.

"I will leave you guys to talk," Hannah said and was about to walk away when Micheal called her, making her stop.

"Hannah " Micheal called and she turned towards him.

"I heard They found the culprit and it was Liam. I'm glad your name has finally been cleared" Micheal said and Hannah nodded in response before walking away.

"You said Jeff needs to be taken care of. What happened?" Micheal asked as he sat beside Arianna.

"Yeah, he hurt Jessica," Arianna said

"What do you want me to do? Do you want me to take him off the picture for good?" Micheal asked

"No, I don't want him to die. Yet! He needs to suffer, I would start by stripping him of all his wealth and everything he's ever worked for, till he's got nothing" Arianna said as she felt so much anger inside of her. "And how are you gonna do that?" Micheal asked.

Meanwhile, Jessica is seen in her room sitting on her bed looking sober when the door opens revealing Alexander, the butler.

"Hey," Alex muttered as he walked inside the room, closing the door behind him.

"Hey," Jessica muttered in response.

"I heard everything just now. I'm so sorry you have to go through all of that" Alex said and Jessica nodded.

Alex sat beside her and Jessica stared at him and placed her head on his shoulder.

"My best friend was part of this too. I knew Krystal wouldn't just convince me to marry Jeff because she never liked him from the beginning.

I remember the first time I told Krystal about Jeff, she told me to replace someone else that Jeff wasn't a good match for me and then all of a sudden she came to my house to convince me Jeff was the one for me. I was just so dumb" Jessica said calmly, sounding so sad and depressed.

"I'm so sorry, Jessica," Alex said. Alex has always liked Jessica, even if he knows the both of them cannot be, he just hates to see her in so much pain.

"Jeff was so nice and sweet to me. He knew how to get to me. He treated me like a queen and I fell for him.

The way he treated me was just too good to be true. That son of a bitch" Jessica cried. She thought she'd found the one, not knowing Jeff was just using her.

"Hey, stop crying alright? If there's Anything you want me to do to help, I would gladly do it" Alex said and Jessica nodded and wiped her tears.

All she wants now is to make Jeff pay and nothing else.

She stood up at once.

"Where are you going?" Alex asked

"To Brandon," Jessica said and walked out of her room.

Meanwhile, Hannah is seen in Brandon's study room speaking with him.

"I know Jeff, he's a sick bastard, but you don't have to make Jessica marry him," Hannah said to Brandon.

"Jessica marrying Jeff is the only way we can get back at him. Can't you see what I'm seeing Hannah?

Jeff is not going to stop, he's gonna keep trying to get back at you. He's going to keep trying to get back at me and my company, thereby putting everything and everyone's life in danger.

Jeff is nothing without all his wealth, therefore we need to cut off the source of his power and the only way to do that is for Jessica to marry him" Brandon said and Hannah sighed softly. "But Brandon...."

"I'm in, I will marry Jeff. Just tell me what to do, all I want is to make Jeff pay" Jessica said, cutting off Hannah's speech.

Hannah turned to Jessica and sighed softly.
