Chapter 334 Hatred

"He won't take you away from me; don't worry," Jessica assured her. In her mind, she was resolvednot to accept Smart's proposal, no matter what. She would rather die than marry Smart.

"Even if he can't take you away, I still need to go! It's a competition between men; how could I pushyou to the forefront while I hide behind? Would I still be a man then?"

"You..." Jessica was trying to do what was best for him, but this stubborn idiot wouldn't give in. Shedecided not to press him anymore. As long as she didn't divorce Daniel, by all accounts, he was herhusband.

Smart would eventually have to replace out; she couldn't hide the truth forever. Instead of trying toconceal it, she thought she might as well be proactive.

"I've got an idea," she announced.

"You've got one? We haven't done anything! How could you be...? Are you telling me you've beenunfaithful? For god's sake! I married such a beautiful wife and haven’t touched a hair on your head,and now you're having someone else’s child?"

"What are you yelling about? Me having a child? I'm still a virgin; how could I possibly have a child!"

Jessica retorted irritably.

"You're not pregnant? Then what is it?"

"I have an idea!"

"What idea?"

"It’s about taking you back to New York, making sure you get through without being killed by Smart."

"Killed by him? I’m like a cat with nine lives; he won't be able to touch me. If that idiot dares to comeat me, I'll make sure I take him down first!"

"You’re not allowed!"

"Why not?"

"He's the young master of The Evans family. If you really killed him, it would be like declaring war onThe Evans!"

"I'm not afraid!"

"I forbid you from killing anyone! If you dare, I'll leave you."

"Can I just beat him up a bit?"

"Suit yourself."

Jessica was reasonable; she just didn't want Daniel to become a murderer, to stain his hands withblood. Him getting into a fight and giving Smart a beating, on the other hand, was something shehad no objections to.

Still curious despite claiming he didn't need to know, Daniel asked, “What’s your idea, anyway?”

"My grandfather's ill!"

"I know he's sick!"

Jessica looked at him doubtfully. "How do you know he's sick?"

"Of course, he's sick! If he wasn't, why would he marry you off to that idiot on his eightieth birthday?He's not just sick; he's got a mental illness. And I'm the cure!"

Jessica twisted his waist hard in frustration, eliciting another usual, pitiful yelp from him.

"My grandfather is a war hero; he's been shot and carries a lot of related ailments. There are abunch of old health problems that even the best hospitals and doctors in the USA haven't been ableto cure. If you manage to cure my grandfather's longstanding illnesses, he might end up liking you.

He's the head of the Matthews family, and everything in The Matthews family is his decision. So, ifyou win him over, make him reject Smart's marriage proposal, we could resolve everythingperfectly."
