Chapter 730


    Zoe chuckled. "Jenna, it''s all because of your sheer luck. Shouldn''t you share some of your luck


    with me, a woman who has been dealt a bad hand in life?"

    She was acting off the wall, and it was obvious that she harboured foul intentions.


    "Zoe, we are all women. Why do we have to make things difficult for the child? Tell me, as long as


    it''s within my means, I can give it to you. I only ask that you don''t hurt my child." Jenna begged


    pitifully on the phone, with tears dripping down her face.


    Zoe waited until she was done pleading before slowly saying, "Alright, looking at your sincerity, I''ll


    give you a chance. But, you shouldn''t y any tricks. Know that Jerry is in my hands. In the unlikely


    event that you pull even the slightest trick and provoke me, I''ll immediately have Aria end his life for


    good."


    "No, please, I beg you, I won''t have any tricks up my sleeve, I promise I won''t." As soon as Jenna


    heard Zoe, her heart felt like it was being twisted by a knife and she could not help but to promise


    over the phone.


    "Rx, I''ve already said that it all depends on you." Zoe smiled gratifyingly at Jenna''s attitude.


    "Then, what exactly do you want me to do?" Jenna bit her lips and fought back her anguish.


    "Alright, since you''re so sincere, I won''t beat around the bush." Zoe seemed to have finally made


    up her mind and continued, "Bring me the Ocean Heart now in exchange for Jerry''s life."


    The Ocean Heart?


    After hearing this, Jenna could finally put her finger on her intentions, and her mind became much


    clearer. However, at that moment, whatever her demands were, she would satisfy them all the


    same. After all, Jerry was still a child, and he was innocent and couldn''t endure any torture.


    The Ocean Heart was no lucky charm, and Jenna did not intend to have it. What she wanted was


    the safety of her child. So, she immediately promised her. "Okay, fine. I will immediately send the


    Ocean Heart to you, but you have to ensure my child''s safety."


    The smile on Zoe''s face deepened and she looked very pleased with herself.


    "Sure, if you''re sincere, then I''ll give Jerry to you in one piece," she said in an open and


    straightforward manner. "What''s the use for me, keeping a child."


    Jenna couldn''t wait any longer. Anxiously, she asked, "Then, where should I send the Ocean Heart


    in exchange for Jerry?"


    On the other side, Zoepsed into silence for a while.


    Jenna held her breath and her heart almost jumped to her throat.


    "Just go to thendmark I sent you. Remember, don''t you dare y tricks. Only you alone are


    allowed toe here." Zoe finally spoke.


    Jenna immediately agreed and replied, "Okay, fine, don''t worry. I will definitely do as you requested,


    as long as my child is safe."


    Jenna did not hesitate and immediately deferred to her request. Just as she was about to


    disconnect the phone, she thought of something and immediately asked warily, "Zoe, I can satisfy


    all your requirements, but where is my child now? Is he still alive? Why should I trust you? Let him


    speak on the phone first. I want to confirm his safety."


    Jenna finally thought of this heart- wrenching problem. Since Zoe was a cunning woman, she


    needed to confirm whether Jerry was still safe and sound.


    "Jenna, do you think you are in any position to negotiate terms with me?" Zoe raised her


    eyebrows and asked coldly.


    "Zoe, you must know that I have to ensure that my child''s alive. Only when he''s alive will this


    ransom be meaningful. Otherwise, why would I send the Ocean Heart to you for nothing? Now that


    I''ve shown enough sincerity, you should let me listen to his voice!" Jenna ordered gravely, "The


    Ocean Heart is a mere stone to me. I never cared about it, but my child is my life. You should


    believe me. As long as I can save my child, I''ll give you everything. I''m a mother after all."


    When Zoe heard her, she fell silent.


    "Alright, hold on. I''ll let you hear Jerry''s voice." She finally agreed and walked to the side.


    "No, don''t take my child." Aria held Jerry in her arms, shivering. When she saw Zoeing


    towards her, she couldn''t help screaming out in fear.


    "Libby." Zoe shot him a look, and he immediately understood. He took a step forward, grabbed


    Aria''s hair, and pulled her back. Aria felt the pain and loosened her grip, causing Jerry to fall from


    her hands and onto the bed.


    "Scram, get out." Libby dragged Aria outside as she cried out in pain.


    When Jerry witnessed these rough scenes, he was so frightened that he began to cry and shout.


    "Jerry, my Jerry, quick, let me talk to him." Jenna heard Jerry''s wails and Aria''s cries of frustration


    on the other end of the line. Her heart constricted and her face turned pale from the pain. Aria had


    indeed been released from prison. Jenna could only whimper in agony on the phone.


    Aunt E faintly heard Jerry''s cries from the other side of the line. She was so frightened that she


    trembled. She couldn''t help but to cry out Jerry''s name.


    Listening to Jenna''s heartbreaking scream on the phone, Zoe felt extremely exhrated.


    "Jerry, do you miss your Mom?" asked Zoe tauntingly as she approached Jerry, who was crying


    and shouting.


    Jerry looked up, with tears welling up in his eyes at Zoe''s sinister face, and then he stopped


    crying.


    "You bad woman, let me out, or my Dad will beat you to death." Jerry''s eyes were filled with anger


    as he tried to intimidate her.


    "Oh, no. How scary! But Jerry, I''m telling you, your Dad won''t want your Mom anymore. He''ll be with


    me in the future. What will you do?" Zoe asked with a chuckle.


    "No way. He won''t be with a bad woman like you. He''ll kill you." Jerry was still a child. Hearing this,


    he grew jittery and immediately retorted.


    Zoe burst outughing. "Jerry, you''re too young to understand men. Your Dad was with me just


    now."


    When Jerry heard this, he even forgot about his fear. He stretched out his leg and sent a fierce kick


    to Zoe, but his calf was simply too short. How could his kicknd on Zoe''s body? In a moment


    of desperation, he spat at her and cried out, "You bad woman, you seduced my father. I won''t let


    you go when I grow up."


    Zoeughed until tears brimmed in her eyes when she heard that. "Oh, Jerry, you still get to 911"


    Jerry''s eyes widened as he red hatefully at Zoe.


    She finally stopped taunting Jerry and cast away the smile on her face.


    "Jerry, don''t be in such a hurry, yeah. Your Mom wille to pick you upter." She took out her


    phone and waved it at Jerry.


    "You''re lying, you bad woman." Although he didn''t believe Zoe, his face lit up when she talked


    about Jenna, and though there was hope aze in his eyes, he didn''t fully buy it.


    "Hmm, why would I lie to a child? C''mere, I''ll let you talk to your Mom." Zoe arched her eyebrows


    and put the phone to Jerry''s ear.
